Referral to Fertility Clinic

Hello! Been TTC for a year and due to my long irregular cycles we have been referred to the fertility clinic with suspected PCOS, specifically the Aberdeen one in Scotland.

We have our 1st appointment booked, a video one, for 13th April and we will also get my partners semen analysis results at the same time. I'm also getting an ultrasound on 3rd April to have a look inside me for my ovaries etc, however this was the gp's request not fertility clinic.

Today, I received a letter from fertility clinic saying my bmi is too high & im not eligible for NHS funded treatment, does this mean they won't see me at all and our appointment won't go ahead? My bmi is 34, so it is too high and I am currently trying to lose weight. However is it just a matter of I'm ineligible for the likes of IVF just now or could I still get the likes of clomid if necessary? 😣 just so gutted as I thought we were getting somewhere!
