Really??? After over 3 years, we finally came close enough to actually getting treatment that we could almost see it, almost be happy about it.
And then some idiot in China ate a bat, and now who knows if we can ever even have kids.
I swear, if that is the reason this never happens...
Well, a lot has changed in a week. Literally the entire world is shut down. Schools, restaurants, stores, everything is closed. Indefinitely.
That's the part that kills me, the fact that there is no end date. I get that no one can predict when it will be safe to reopen, but that just kills any tiny ounce of hope that I had left.
We were already considering looking into doing our IVF cycle at a different clinic, and I was thrilled to see that they were just about the only fertility still open during Corona panic time.
Our main concern about exploring this one as an option was the location- it's an hour away. But since I'm not working right now, that doesn't matter anymore. It sounded like it was meant to be!
Within the last 2 days, I booked an appointment, had our medical records transferred there, and spent hours filling out about 15 pages of paperwork for them.
Only to find out a few hours after turning everything in that they had also jumped on the "let's crush people's dreams" bandwagon.
We still have an online consultation for next week, but it's completely worthless because they won't schedule anything anyways.
The reason I feel like this is so time-sensitive is because one of my test results was off. I have low AMH for my age, which basically I don't have the amount of eggs I'm supposed to have. That was tested a year ago, and I'm terrified that it's gotten worse.
I would feel so much peace of mind if I could just have that re-tested, but no one can do that for me. I just have this feeling that if it has gotten worse, these could be the last few months that IVF would even work for us.
I think it's great that we're all taking steps to distance ourselves from other people and avoid crowds to try to stop the spread of the dumb virus, but canceling all MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS unless you're going to die and/or you have said virus???
Everything is stupid. That's all.
