Tonsillitis and ivf

🙁 I just want to cry...... I've just woke up and I'm 99.9% I've woken up with Tonsillitis ( delt with a lot growing up) the thing is suppose to be starting my 3rd of IVF on the 31st January I've already started taking the pill 🙁 the 31st is for scan and to start injections.

I know I've probably got enough time to recover from it, but I've already had the flu bug over Christmas and new year......

Now this am I so run down 😕.

I'm so tempted to ring clinic and postpone treatment but I know husband will be devastated

I got tonsillitis on my 2 week wait- our ICSI IVF worked and we now have twin girls- can you speak to your doctor for advice?

Thank you gives me some hope thing I'm just feeling sorry for myself . I will defo ring gp this but I know they won't give antibiotics unless they do swabs first 🙁 and they take a week to come back so you just have to suffer till they tell u ooooo yes it is an infection 😕 x

I stsrted injecting on the 27th and came down with flu and tonsillitis just after it's horrible anfelt like giving up but I didn't and I'm glad I didn't, I really hope you get better. But if you want to postpone it then it's your body and you have to do what's right for you!

Thank you it's rubbish as if we don't have enough to deal with ..... would feel better if didn't have to fight with doctors to get antibiotics 🙁 and snotty doctors receptionists lol.

Waiting for a doctor now to ring me back so fingers crossed.

Good luck with your cycle I hope u get a big fat postive xx

I had a bad cold through having ivf , was nervous it would somehow ruin it , but I kept on , siped ginger lemon and honey in hot water . I now have a healthy baby girl . I read somewhere that having a cold are something like it puts your body in mend it mode and that helps your body to except the embryo , don't know how true that is but it worked for me . Good luck x

Hi Crazy_cat,

I do hope you're on the mend from your tonsilitus. What did you decide to do about your ivf after?

Last Wednesday I was diagnosed with accute tonsilitus and told my ivf would have to be postponed a month. Though I was devastated, im glad we postponed because by the froday I was admitted to hosptial, had quincy abscesses drained by a needle and I was put on an IV line and kept in for 3 days.

I'm home now but still have a way to go with recovery and feel I'll cope with ivf better if I'm in tip top shape so glad I didn't try to take both on.

I hope you're recovering well and your ivf is a success!

Luck and love to you xx

Oh God you have had a rough time 🙁. I hope you start feeling better soon and get in tip top shape for your IVF round and get a successful out come. Your right your better off been 100% .

I'm starting to feel better, I just kept quite about starting new round of IVF to gp. Decided that since my 1st scan isn't till 31st of January I figured I'd be totally back on my feet by then or hopefully.

Good luck for when you start yours too xx

Thank you Crazy_cat, im on the mend now.

Glad you're starting to improve too. I don't blame you for keeping quiet given that you don't start until the 31st, I'm sure you'll be much better by then and it would have been a shame to have to postpone due to the tail end of an illness!

I'll be starting an antagonist cycle in early Feb now.

Best of luck to you lovely xx

That's the same cycle as me and you won't be far behind me then, it will be here before you know it 😊.

And thank you xx
