Hi Noi, thanks for the info, and I do agree that NUH CHR nurses are very friendly & helpful. they are very busy too but their attitude towards patients are always good. On one of the Saturday afternoon before the injection of ovidrel, the
syringe given was damaged, and the med was spilled out. so we activated the CHR standby nurse, and one of the nurse who was about to leave the clinic actually stayed back, and waited for us to pass the new med to me. it's already 4pm+ which is out of their working hours, but they were very helpful, and didn't give any bad attitude.
Prof Wong is also professional and give more attentions to ivf patients. during my ivf program, for the BT & U/S scan every alternate day, it's always arranged in the early time slot, like 8am
to 830am, some time even 740am, which Prof goes in early to dedicate his time for ivf patients. so waiting time is pretty short.
Lee(dollyrac): thanks for the info and big hugz for you~~ This is a long challenging journey for us, but I believe the time will come and we will all be a proud mom sooner or later. Cheer up!
For procedures, agreed with emily it'd be similar.
my 1st ivf was long protocol (starting with suprefect to suppress hormone, then gonal-F for stimulation).
2nd ivf was short protocol (start directly with Gonal-F for stimulation, and later add cetrotide).
Personally I prefer short protocol, which cut short the injections period by half!
