Has anyone managed to get this from their GP? X

Hi Samrakker I did but it was a few years ago! I had a miscarriage at 7 weeks following ICSI & then had tests for immune & blood clotting issues - results came back that I didnt have anything. However the miscarriage consultant prescribed me Clexane for our next ICSI cycle. I spoke with my GP who knew about the miscarriage & basically said if I didnt get the Clexane and I miscarried again.......& looked at him in a way that told him not to mess with me!!! I'm not saying this is the best way but I've always found the sob story works!! Not sure if you have been prescribed because you did have a positive result but if that is the case, they definitely should give it to you. After all if people are trying to give up smoking they get lots of free help for example. Oh and I took Clexane until I was 34 weeks pregnant - just in case & our daughter is now 4 1/2 yrs old. Good luck, I hope you're GP is empathetic. xx

Hi samrakkar. I would definitely have a chat with your GP. Always good to get him/her involved, as they are often willing to help where they can. Good luck! Diane
