As I mentioned in my last post, we had another appointment with our specialist.
We started talking about the IVF treatment we would be undertaking and the doctor asked me how I felt about it, I expressed how it's upsetting that it takes so long (6-7 weeks) just for one cycle :(
so the doctor decided to change my treatment to a different IVF cycle which is only 30 days!! YAY
It's called an Antagonist cycle - a very aggressive sounding name but I guess infertility requires aggressive treatment to get the results we want.
We were also able to change the appointments with the nurse, counsellor and accounts department so that we might be able to start next cycle (if my period can hold off until around the 24th - fingers crossed)
We have our counselling appointment (that be both legally have to attend) on Monday the 21st and I have the nurse and accounts appointments on the 25th
So this means we could be starting IVF as soon as next week! and EPU (egg pick up) where they collect my eggs and fertilise them could happen as soon as July 8th or 9th!!!!! and we will hand a result (good or bad) by the end of July
It's all so real now, within reach......this really is going to happen!

Good to hear. Although nobody likes to be told they HAVE to do something I think counselling is a good idea.
