I want to be sterilised (Im 32 have a 2 year old and absolutely no desire for more - if I do at any point I'll adopt).
I been through the mill of hormonal contraceptives and I want out. Having had the merina out i'm currently dealing with the 'crash' whilst on the yasmin pill and its not pleasant. I can't drink as it now makes me sick and I can barely eat as it gives me horrific wind, stomach cramps and bloating. To say its depressing is a bloody understatement.
I had a brief phone chat with my GP who was very unhelpful and told me the NHS don't 'do' female sterilisation which i know is untrue.
I have a face to face appointment on Monday and I'd really appreciate anything I can go armed with. It seems crazy that the NHS would fund a stream of abortions (if I came off hormonal and played pot luck) or the mental health treatment i'd likely need (if i continue) rather than give me the one of operation that I want.

My local area does not (apparently) 'do' (or rather fund) the procedure I need - advice appreciated.
