3y Ttc, still waiting for referral

Hi, DH and I have been ttc for 3y now. Went to the GP last year in August and he told me that it was normal and I shouldn't worry. In October went to another GP as I was feeling really frustrated and anxious about this and the doctor referred me straight away to fertility as I'm 35 and said I should have been referred the 1st time. I have been waiting since October and they keep asking me for the wrong blood tests so the referral was rejected 4 times and sent back, asking for the correct blood tests. I have done 5 blood tests now and still waiting for the outcome of the referral. Did anyone go through this? Could you please tell me what happened after being successfully referred to fertility? How long did you have to wait?I'm not sure what to expect or what to do next but I feel that I am in a race against time, will be 36 soon and worry I'll never be able to have children :(

Terrifying. Can you change clinics? You should be able to choose, under the AQP scheme.

I'm not sure how to do that tbh. I am worried that if I change clinics they will ask me for more blood tests and to restart the whole process.
