I was told by the fertility clinic on the 15th to go and get an Hcg blood test, they would fax the order to the blood clinic. I went and did that one. The fertility clinic then phoned me with those results the next day and told me that I would need to go again Friday (today). I asked if the order was going to be faxed again, and she said no, that it would already be there. I went there today, and the lady at the blood clinic could not find the order anywhere! She was looking all over the place, meanwhile, I am looking at the clock and notice that it is almost 4:30 (the time the fertility clinic closes) and I want this lady to hurry so I can phone them and fax a new order...but, she is just talking and looking and being really annoying really. Finally about 10 minutes later, she says "oh I guess I will try to phone the clinic and see if they can send another one". So, she dissapears and then comes back about 5 minutes later and says "you JUST missed them, they JUST turned off their phones...they close at 4:30" Then she laughs, and shrugs her shoulders, and says "oh well". I am, at this point, about to burst into tears. My eyes were welled up, and I could feel my lip quivering.
I am so pi$$ed. First, does she REALLY think that she should be giggling and saying "oh well" to a woman who has an order from a Fertily Clinic for an Hcg???? I have had THREE miscarriages...this is NOT an "oh well" moment for me. Not at all. I am so upset. Now I have to wait until Monday, and now the test I had the other day is useless because it will be over 72 hours.
After that, I go and buy a digital conception indicator, hoping that it would say 2-3 weeks (I am 2 weeks past conception), but, instead, it says 1-2, which was totally unhelpful....that could be the same Hcg number I had the other day for all I know.
Sorry, just had to vent.
