Jedds, you poor thing, you must be furious. Six months is way too long and yes, you must pull every string at your disposal. If they won't budge, what is your Plan B? Do you think you could get them to refer you elsewhere? Or would you be able to see him privately? The system is ridiculous; I know no-one should wait that long, but there really ought to be some sort of fast-tracking for those of us where time is absolutely critical.
Tania - thanks, honey. At the moment I don't feel brave, I feel like a mess. Hoping a good rest over Christmas will put me in a better place and give me the strength to get through the next few months - and whatever happens after.
Sweetie, I don't think you should get too caught up on the chlamydia thing when it may be irrelevant to your case. But just so you know, yes a man can have it and never realise. It is very common and often symptomless - very different from other STDs.
I too wish we could sit in your garden with a glass of something nice and cold and have a good chat about it all. Cyberspace is good but not quite good enough!
Colinsmommy - really, really hoping your light spotting is sign of one thing and not the other...
As for me, I have three party invites this weekend and am trying to decide whether it would do me good to kick up my heels, drink champagne and be forced to be jolly, or whether I'd be better off wrapped in a blanket on the couch, taking it really easy. It may be decided by how well I feel: I'm exhausted and STILL NAUSEOUS (tenth day!). I welcomed it when I thought I was pg; now I hate it, as well as making me feel crap it's like a continuing reminder, poking fun at me for being such an idiot, going 'ner ner ner ner ner'..
