Hi, hoping for some support and guidance on what to expect next. Been TTC for 22 months now and finally been referred today to Shrewsbury for ICSI.

Am I in for a long wait? Has anyone had ICSI before that might able to tell me what to expect?

Thank you in advance for your support x

I haven't had icsi but I had IVF, we found out in January 2016 that we qualified for a free cycle after having all my tests done in 2015. After having more nurse appointments/consent signing etc I finally started ivf in May 2016 so a good few months we had of waiting. It also depends on your clinic and what their waiting lists are like.

Good luck with your journey, it seems scary (I think it's more the bit knowing what to expect) but it's not as scary as you think. I hope it all goes well x

Hi Liveinhope. Just wanted to wish you both well with this, and of course for success. If you have a look at fertilityfairness.co.uk you will be able to see what the waiting times are for your area. I'm sure some of the others here will fill you in on their experiences. Thinking of you. Diane
