Ali, there is another option again... Next Generation Fertility in Parramatta. I believe they have a policy that gets you in for your first appointment within a week - certainly worked for us. Very similar pricing policy to IVFAust, but probably not as convenient.

I'm with them and I'm loving it - a few problems with getting to know how some of the nurses work, but they have been absolutely brilliant with me and my body's desire to do everything the complicated way and not respond properly.

I see David Knight there - he does take a bit of getting used to. He's quite big on the emtional side of things, and often drives me nuts at appointments when he's going on about me needing to stress less... I know it's necessary though, even if it does bug me. One thing that does bother some women with him... He's VERY big on weight control with PCOS. He didn't think I'd have to do it, as I'm within normal weight limits, but my GTT came back appallingly bad so I had to do a 4-week diet thing - where he checked everything I'd eaten for those 4 weeks at the next appointment. It worked - I lost 4kg in 4 weeks and continued to lose weight even after I stopped following the program. For others - he has kept them on that the whole way through treatment... Glad I managed to escape it!

Still plodding along, desperately wanting to believe, but scared to let myself. Still testing negative, but still have strong symptoms. Either way it's not too long to go. Three more sleeps! Have finally made my decision - Wednesday I won't be going to work... no matter how much people complain at me! I'll probably still take the early BT appointment, though!
