So I'll start from the beginning,
I'm 24 and have been with my husband for 7 years, I have a son by previous relationship.
We have been trying for a baby for 5years+ and we have had 7misscarriages over the years and never had a answer for them.
I've had all the tests and a laposcropy in Dec'15 to check for endo and anything else, but all comes back clear.
This year my husband finally got put threw for tests himself, we was told his sperm count is below 1% which is really bad and will eventually drop to nothing, so was told if we wanted to go ahead with treatment, needs to be quick! 😬
We got put forward for ICSI, but NHS will not fund as I have a child already.
We have had a consultation about it, and had bloods taken which cost £1,120 😱!! Last week we got blood results back and was all clear for us to do ICSI.
So now we are at the stage where we have another appt booked with private clinic for 'nurse consultation' on Wednesday to talk about medication (injections for me) and what happens next. Doctor told me on the phone, that after this appt, 'procedjure' will start next period so first week of October (not long)!
I am so scared about these injections, how many do I need? Do they hurt? What is the 'procedjure' I just don't understand some of it! I have read so much stuff, but it's all something different!
Because I've had MC am I likely to have another one?
We have been told it's going to cost in total nearly £7,000, which is possible to find (begging family) we are desperate for a baby but I'm scared it's not going to work, and my husband doesn't deal with things very well and don't think we can take another knock back.
Sorry for long post, I just want someone that knows what I'm going through.
TIA xx
