I think in the larger scheme, that's what it's really about: we have to rely on so many other people, so many unknown quantities in what should be the simple equasion of making a baby. It's not fair and it frustrates me no end and I guess that was where some of the rage was coming from last week. I hate that you understand what I'm talking about.

It sucks that these are the people we have to rely on to try to build our families, instead of doing it the fun way. I'm sorry.

The errors, the lack of communication, the receptionist's instinct to cover up -- any one of these things would be enough to shake a patient's confidence.

All they have to do is, like, you know, their job. This is the last thing you should have to worry about - it's not that I'm upset that us in the infertile set have to be our own advocate for routine procedures and blood draws, we're adults, that's fine. But the required hyper vigilance and all the repeated screw ups, is totally unacceptable. Hang in there, friend.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17685641936657833904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4181203705533916900.post-22706775729642062042013-04-17T11:26:41.727-07:002013-04-17T11:26:41.727-07:00This is fucking ridiculous.

But twice?!?!? Honestly, I would contact my insurance, tell them the story and ask them what they are going to do to make all of this better because 1) this doctor is setting him/herself up for a major lawsuit and 2) this reflects poorly on them too. In addition, I would also contact the fertility clinic and tell them all that has happened. That way they can help rectify the situation and also bitch at the other clinic for being so incompetent.<br /><br />Either way, I'm so sorry. Figuring out how others should be doing their job isn't where you should be spending your time. hang in thereCristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04317873211902543387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4181203705533916900.post-87509730081410890382013-04-17T10:20:47.337-07:002013-04-17T10:20:47.337-07:00OMG, I can not believe it but I am also not surpri...OMG, I can not believe it but I am also not surprised. <br />BTW, the blood clotting can be: bad handling, like you said, or they took it out in the wrong tube (you probably noticed tubes have green, purple, black, caps... this indicate the anti-clotting agent and depending on the test one or other should be used). <br />It is unbelievable. And I am sorry this has happened. <br />(Here they do the same kind of thing, this arrogant, smug nurses that think they know everything, act like doctors, but actually have no idea. I got my period on Friday afternoon. We called on Monday morning (CD4) to ask for an appointment and see if you can start an IUI cycle, check my lining, that there are no cysts, etc (anytime from days 3-5). The nurse then proceeds to inform me that if I got my period after 12 pm it was day 3, not 4. Arrrrg. I had to explain the situation to the doctor, who is super nice, and make sure to set the record straight. Who is she to tell me on which cycle day I am? Is she in my pants or something.?<br /><br />But, we will get pregnant soon Sadie, it will work out.
