Poor you, you don't need this when the whole 'To IVF or not to IVF' is so finely balanced anyway. How ignorant of him to ignore your email, especially when time is so close. However, you are so right that perhaps a new consultant is a good thing; I'm sure having a good relationship with them is really important and with OH being so uncertain, it would be much better if he felt that he gelled with the consultant in whose hands you are placing so much . I don't really understand IVF - is your slot purely a time slot that you have been allocated by the clinic or do you mean miss your slot as in, miss the correct time in your cycle to begin treatment? Regardless, surely a slight delay is preferable to a cr*p consultant? Thinking of you sweetie xx
