Anyway, I went back to see the GP today. She was very apologetic and said that the referral had been made correctly, but the details must have been lost by the fertility clinic and that she had re-submitted my details yesterday 'just to be safe'. I'm not sure I believed her, but I wasn't able to get angry about it, as half an hour before going into the surgery I got my first ever BFP, cycle no.23 of trying!!! I'll stay in the system now anyway so if this doesn't stick I'll be able to go straight back to the fertility clinic. Let's just hope I don't need to rely on the flakey GP too much in the future!

congrats on your BFP
Don't be too hard on your GP...... yes she may have made an error but there are lots of steps in the referral pathway so the mistake could hav been made somewhere else.
I work in a GP surgery and I know all the ins and outs......... There are more pathway steps once the referral has left the GP surgery. Mistakes happen and can be at the hospital end.

good luck

YAY!! I'm so pleased for your BFP.

Hope you have a happy healthy 9 months x x

Thanks loads for all your congratulations! Am keeping my fingers crossed that we see some more BFPs soon.

Mrs RH - you are totally right, it may not have been the GPs fault, but this particular surgery is utterly useless... so far they have lost all my previous gynae records (and refused to repeat the investigations), sent my blood sample off for the wrong tests and, when they finally managed to do the right tests, gave me the wrong results! Goodness only knows how they'll manage over the next few months! x
