I don't mean to offend anyone on a waiting list for a gynae referral....but I have worked for the NHS for 20 yrs and cared for thousands of patients and I really feel like a deserve a fraction of a thousandth millimeter of payback for this. If I WAS 10 YRS YOUNGER I WOULD NOT EXPECT ANYTHING!

Hi girls family has finally left and ds has fallen asleep on the couch watching shreak 2.
Colin iam 11 hours infront where are you? Its a pain isnt it noone to really chat to live as everyone is asleep.
Thanks hester for the info it seems to be very common if i have got it it could only be partner number 3 or dh has played up surely the guy would know if he had it they do get symptoms?? Sorry about af arriving have to give you credit for sticking it out for 5 years i wanted to throw in the towel yesterday and thats only after 1 year. you inspire me you would have to be the strongest person i know. Really wish i didnt live to far away cause i really just want to give you a big hug and tell you everything is going to be ok and yeah get pissed too that always seems to help me
JB sorry about af but it does seem strange dont want to get your hopes up but i did have spotting when i was pg with ds enough that i counted it as af are you due for af? thanks for looking up that info for me but they wont even let me enter the site says access denied only for uk residence. could you cat me the page please?
Jeddah shit 6 bloody months and here i was winging that i had to wait that long for my laperoscapy is there a shortage of gyno's in the uk? Regardless of age or anything the wait should never be that bloody long. Kick up a really bit fuss and use your contacts in the field to get you somewhere you deserve better!!!
So wish i could meet you guys feeling that i will never get the chance.
Sorry for your friend Fastasleep.

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'..
