    Unhappy Frustration with FS

    Hi All,

    I have just completed my 3rd IVF cycle & had an ET last Thursday. I am now in the agonising TWW period!

    I am becoming increasingly frustrated with my FS and I am wondering if anyone else is using them and having the same issues?

    I am going through Assisted Conception Australia at the Greenslopes Hopsital. I am constantly waiting for in excess of an hour for appointments then when I get in there I have to tell her what I'm there for & where we're at. It all becomes too much for my DH sometimes & he dreads coming to appointments with me!

    My first ET was on Mothers Day, I was so excited & optimistic that I was on a total high on my way to the hospital. When I got there she was running late and I had to sit on the floor in a hallway & wait my turn for over half an hour! I felt so deflated & angry about the situation that it really took most of the joy out of it.

    Today I had a call from the receptionist to say that there was a gap in between my referrals from my GP so unless I got a new one that I would not be able to claim my latest cycle from Medicare! If they had told me a week before my referral expired instead of a month afterwards I wouldn't be in this situation!

    Am I being unreasonable or should I expect more service? It's such an emotional rollercaoster that I really don't need the extra stress.

    Does anyone else have any experience with this clinic?

    Renee
