Oh dear ....

Did your clinic not warn you that this might be a possibility before your procedure? My nurse told me that infections were possible because of the invasive procedure ‘down there’ and to ring if I had issues and they would look after me.

So sorry it’s been a bit negative for you . Try to get your calm brain back, rage never did anybody any good.

It’s ok to be angry.

Feel it, know why you feel it, then get yourself back into a better brain space.

Hope you can find something to do to release your frustration.

Thinking of you 💐

Much love

Nope they didnt say anything at all, just sent us home. The level of care has just not been good enough as far as im concerned. There was no aftercare for me, because that was our cycle over with. I will release the fraustration on friday dont you worry lol. Im ok, just been to work im not walking round angry, but i am really not satisfied at all with what has happened at the clinic, and ill make sure thet know that. Hope youre ok x

That’s not good you not having any aftercare surely a phone call is sufficient at least

Dreadful approach from them! Hope they ask you to review their service! Write your thoughts down so you ‘don’t miss and hutch the wall’ if ya get my drift. Can you ask for a partial refund as they didn’t fulfil their duty of care? Hope you get some decent answers on Friday! Poor pet 😘

Im sure ill be giving you an update 🤣

I’m sorry to hear that you’re right it’s not good enough. I would when you feel a bit calmer point a complaint to your clinic. Stupid question can you move to a different clinic? I hope you feel better soon xxx

Hey, yes thats what im thinking of doing i just cant find one i feel i trust 😓. Xx

in reply to Purplewitch18

I don’t blame you I would too, it’s important to have confidence in your clinic. Perhaps some ladies might be able to pm recommendations of clinics. Also most offer free opening evenings. We had a much better experience with our second nhs clinic ( long story!) & had success. Also some nhs clinics also treat private patients too & tho they might not look the bees knees the patient care is often better. Going through this is hard enough without any additional stress. Good luck xxx

Im glad you found somewhere good. I dont need a posh clinic id be happy with an nhs one, but theres only one and its still about 2 hours away. All the others are private and we have been round them all. I did put a post up about clinics in my area but didnt get any replies, so i really am stuck. I wanna get on with the next cycle but got no clinic 😭xx

in reply to Purplewitch18

Oh damn it. I’m so sorry. I don’t know what else to suggest. It’s a shame the nhs one is so far away & isn’t do able with many appts. Not sure of your area I could pm you my old clinic. I’m from southwest if that is any help? You don’t have to make any decisions just yet, let the dust settle & see how you feel. Look after yourself hope the uti clears up soon & you feel better soon xxx

Yes egg collection. Now its not like im not aware that sugery can cause bladder infections etc, but to just be left too it, thats not right. Luckily the gp as soon as i said id had ivf was like, ahhh ok, and gave me some antibiotics x

Sorry to hear this. It's hard when the clinics aren't providing the utmost support and care. Let yourself be angry for now, but I don't know if having it out with the clinic will help. Let me know as I've been angry at our clinic for a few different things and they haven't cared. It's just been a reminder to me that they are a business.

Theres no way i cant say anything, its just not me. I will be saying that it was an awful experience, and things werent really explained to us, and i will ask for a refund for the sedation because i didnt have any. They already know im angry about them charging us £1400 extra that we wouldnt have known about unless i had asked to talk to someone, and they know im not happy with going through that with no sedation. I mean the fact they led me to belieive i had had some when i clearly hadnt is just not on. If youre not happy then you have every right to say, i have my own business and if someone wasnt happy id do my best to fix it, if they dont then thats not someone to be giving your money too xx

Oh wow! Didn't realise all that. That's really awful! Yeah, you should definitely ask for a refund on a sedation that you didn't have! That's ridiculous.
