This Sperm Thing Is Never Going to End June 13, 2005
My head is about to explode. Seriously. I feel sorry for whoever is going to have to clean it up.
I have been trying my damnedest to get this sperm transportation situation take care of. After things didn’t work out on Friday, I was told that the tank would be available first thing this morning. Based on that information, I let my current clinic know that I would be bringing in the sperm this morning.
I should know better than to trust what my old clinic says. I called this morning at 8:00 hoping to hear that the tank was there and ready for me to pick up. Oh, no. Things cannot be that easy. The tank wasn’t there, and I was told to call back at 9:00.
So, I did. The tank still wasn’t there. I was then told that they would try to get the tracking number so that they would know when it would arrive and then call me back. I waited for half an hour while my phone sat silent. Meanwhile, the clock is ticking, and my current clinic is expecting the sperm at any time.
At 9:30 I called back my stupid ass former clinic only to be told that they weren’t sure when the tank would arrive, but that it’s supposed to get there today. Oh, that’s helpful. So, I had to call my current clinic to let them know that I wasn’t going to be there when I was supposed to be. I left a message at the embryology lab, so hopefully they’ll let me bring it in this afternoon if the tank actually shows up.
This is beyond frustrating. I just want to transport some sperm, damn it. It really shouldn’t be this hard.

Sheesh Amanda, you’ve had to deal with so much crap from your first clinic. It’s awful what they continue to do to you. Good riddance to them.
I hope it all works out OK and then you can be truly done with them.
I hope that you can get the sperm and then be done with the incompetent clinic!
Amanda,
Okay, now I feel like a complete dumbass about the sperm question duh, huh? So, anyhow, good luck and sorry you are going through a run around with your old clinic, unacceptable!

Did you have any luck today? I’m sorry your old suckass clinic is making you want to pull your hair out.
No luck, and my head is seriously on the verge of exploding. Just another confirmation that leaving suckass clinic was the right thing to do. Not that I wasn’t sure before.
I feel your pain. I remember the feeling of pure joy when we finally sprung my hubby’s sperm out of jail. I mean the cryobank. Good luck…
I would throw a “Finally Rid of the Old RE” party once things are finally done. It MIGHT be fun. I’d have said happier, but I’m not sure anything could be better than getting rid of them for good.
Gosh! I hope it gets figured out soon!
Hoping that you got this BS resolved and never ever have to deal with that evil clinic again.
Argh, it’s always something, isn’t it?? I hope you get this all worked out soon so you can put the old clinic completely behind you. They’ve caused you enough aggravation to last a lifetime.
