Fedup - thank you. This gp referred me for testing 11 months ago (problem is antibody factors in sperm) and has never said there was an issue. I have repeatedly been asking for treatment on the nhs - 6 months ago any hope of treatment was removed and no contact from them since. There is little treatmetn in middle of country where I live. If I am licky I can get 12 sessiosn whith a psychologist but that has been refused. So how do I get someone to talk to, smile and say all positives so 2yrs down the line when my eggs are older and worthless I may get to pay a fortune for treatment.
Sorry - I have had diagnoses, labels - YET no treatment ever but they are prepared to stop physical medical treatment as I don't qualify for treatment.
I understand where you are coming from - me work with someone eventually from nhs - smile, say all that I am doing to improve and they may eventually tick the box. Then got to find new hospital who would treat me as I would not be someone anyone would tough, yes? so somewhere miles away, as a teacher means only cycle once a year as a teacher then, or someone with bad results so less likely to work.
I don't mean to sound angry - but this is your legal advice?
Choccie the hospital meets to discuss each case, lying on the form not helpful. The hospital decide ultimately adn Gp has an input. My Gp does not want to support me, yet he does not need think I need counselling - he never has committed his budget to give me any. Antidepressants yes.
So if you have mental health issues, hope you have a fanastic support system - I know of one person hwo had 3yrs of weekly sessions with a psychologist in London. Here a basic trained nurse is more than I am allowed. And it will mean nothing, as I havt to tick boxes and meet targets.
I would like to state tat:
- my employer knows everything, work with kids
- I am indudated from babysitting overnight for kids of frineds - well the 2 that know the trugh of me
- I have Occupational Health and CRB for everything
I for over 20yrs have been a team leader or co-leader of charity residential camps for children all over the UK.
--- welfare of child is the issue? My manager said you'd never know I had depression and at work I am blal blah of niceties.
THis blocks private funding - so rules out abroad too. But summer holiday is a long way to wait for travel abroad - am 35.
The needles were all there with first dose and told no.!! Waiting for others to say oh you may be ok is not helpful for me to pin my hopes on.
Have two choices - church prays (well they are and no move forward) or I find another source of sperm that doens't invovle hospitals. No male friends or relatives that can ask. More website hunces if follow that routs. You see gp can stop Fertility Clinics but not affairs, using men for sperm or donor sperm done by self. Yet he woudl say "she would not dream of acting like that."
No support forward. Childlessness, loneliness, all friends totally ignored me - as they are so happy with children they don't want to spend time with someone they can't be bothered to spend time with unless they need a babysitter.
Bye - I am no longer worthy to be on Clear Blue Monitor area as you are all talking about treatments or peaks and highs and I cannot talk about that - as I am unsafe to be around young children and may well make a comment that woudl hinder your own children it appears.
Take care, but keep your own special babies away from anyone with mental health issues as they are not allowed fertility treatments unless they have husbands iwth right jobs or a gp that is human,
