Still waiting to start treatment

So i phoned today as we are approaching the 10 day mark of waiting to start treatment. The nurse said they have a backlog and have to take into consideration xmas and new year.

I askled her what this meant for us, she said we might have to wait until my next period, however that is 2 eeks. At this rate it's going to be end of December before we can begin.

Makes me feel frustrated especially as my SIL is having her 4th baby :-(

Likely you will have to wait until jan as they told me they do not do anything between now and Christmas.

Sending hugs your way, it’s so frustrating when you think your going to get going and then to be told you’ve got to wait even longer x
