hello hello,
I am starting a new job soon and also planning to do my first ivf (at the same time...) and keen to know from you how much time off work I will really need to take.
I have two options it seems - a long protocol with the argc (expensive, long, but more chance of success) and a short protocol with the NHS. Now, my decision will be influenced by different factors - which one can I do first (the quicker, the better - we have been ttcing for 2 yrs), one is free and one is ca 10k and how much time they will take out of work...Its already annoying that they ask me to do different protocols.
Have any of you done short protocol with the NHS? The hospital is Chelsea and Westminster. How many times do they ask you to come to the hospital and when? I know the ARGC is heavy on appointments - daily bloods, IVig drip, hysteroscopy etc.
THANK you. As you can probably tell, I am stressed.
(me -33, DH - 34. Unexplained infertility but high nk cells)
