I HATE doctors...

Smootiepie

So short version of the back story is that I called Monday for an appointment to go over IF test results and get "the plan" for where to go next (i.e. additionally testing or treatment), and was told my doc would be out after this week until mid-June.  Earliest appt I could get was June 21.  So I called my doc's nurse, and she said the doc may be able to call and give me the results since she didn't have any available appointments this week.  Called later that day only to be told by another nurse that my doc and/or nurse hadn't made any call backs yet, expect one by the end of the day.  No call.  Called Tuesday morning and was able to get the appointment moved to tomorrow, only to finally get a call back today.  Of course I missed the call, and by the time I called back, the nurse was with a patient. 

So when she did call back, I got a brief "you're results were fine" and was told to just wait for DH's repeat SA and b/w results (which should be the 2nd week of June) before I come in for another appointment.  I guess I feel better knowing that I'm fine (whatever the heck that means), but I hate this waiting game.  It just feels like the cycle I'm about to start (CD 1 should be this weekend) will be another wasted effort.  Bleh...

On a happy side note, double baby shower at work went wonderfully.  Absolutely no tears from me, a smidge of inevitable jenvy, and no mention of "so who's next."  Whew!

Yay for this part!!!!  So glad that is over for you!  I hate doctors too...they don't seem to have any sense of urgency as we are waiting around for results...it's not right

((hugs))

I hate doctors too.  I'm sorry your office is being such a butthead.  I'm glad the shower went well at least!

I hate playing phone tag with doctors and nurses!  That's one tremendous difference I've noticed with my REs office vs OBGYNs... I get called back ASAP.  OBGYN nurses (only my experience here) do not seem to value the stress of waiting for results when you're dealing with IF and loss.

I am so sorry. I feel your frustration about inattentive docs. All we want is support, doctors!! I am glad the baby showers went better than expected!

Oh I am sorry about the one way phone tag at your doctors office. I am a very impatient person naturally but it gets worse when I am waiting on a call back about something TTC related. =( 

But YAY! for the double baby showers being over and a complete success (no tears is a HUGE deal!)
