period is 3d late which never happens (unless im pg) and shows no sign at all of rearing its ugly head. bought a boots test today and did it mid morning (definately NOT 1st wee, have to squeeze it out, TMI, sorry) and twas a bfn.

just read though that boots tests are probably the least sensitive (doh) any stories?

How you doing lissie? Glad you have an answer now, hope you not too dissappointed. The doc sounds like a wanker

Oh. Not sure whether to be happy or sad for you that it's turned up, but glad you have an answer one way or the other.

Oh Lissie, Sorry about af.
You have got to complain, like Lilred says he could be a danger.

thank you everyone. think i will complain about him. imagine if it had been something more sinister (unfortunately i still have to test in a week anyway to be absolutely sure) and i were less clued up! i have learnt from bitter experience that there is no such thing as a typical ep or pg and im furious that he thought it was ok to dismiss me like that!

Lissie - you need to put formal complaints in about this man - he sounds dangerous.

Buda · 12/03/2008 08:50

God lissie - hadn't seen this thread till now - what a rollercoaster! And what a tosser of a doc. Shame there are so many of them about.

BigTeuchLittleTeuch · 12/03/2008 08:43

fucking wanky shitty bastard doctors.
really, wtf's wrong with them?

been to docs today, got appt for 5.50 and he said what can i do for you?
"well" sez i "my period is a week late, shows no sign of starting and im a bit worried, its been every 28d since i was 18"
"lab urine test was a bfn" sez he
"lab urine test was a bfn with ds and my ep"
"well you have to be pg to have an ep" (had to restrain myself from throttling the wanker at this point)
"i know" sez i "but if i am pg then i am 5w. my tube ruptured at 6w4d"
"well what do you want me to do?"
"a blood test"
"i cant, lab has gone"
"can i come in tomorrow?"
"you'll have to get an appt"
"can you book me one?"
"no"
"so what do i do?"
"come back next week"

"thanks a fecking lot"
"oh mrs w..."
"yes"
"the signs to look out for with an ep are abdo pain, abnormal bleeding and shoulder tip pain"

"in feb i had no abdo pain, bled like a period and shoulder tip pain only occurs when the tube has burst and you are bleeding internally. you told me i wasnt pg then too"

tosser.
