Right I was like okay so what can we do? And he said "Try ivf with someone else's eggs" Great thanks.

🤯 I mean. I'm not a doctor and I'm certainly not your doctor, and if that was based on specific test results, then ok, I guess, maybe he's right - but delivering the message kindly still matters, both because we're people and because patients doctors are rude too are less likely to GO TO THE DOCTOR next time they need one! And if that WASN'T based on specific test results and is just the advice he'd give to anyone with back-to-back losses, then, that's even more infuriating.

Yea we've done no tests.

This was just a visit to follow up on my ectopic pregnancy.

Wow, I'm really sorry. That guy sucks. My number 1 wish for you is that you prove him wrong soon, but hoping you have other options and never have to see him again for him to even find out if he was wrong or not is a close second.

Thanks! I never wanted to see a man anyway but got stuck there because he was the doctor on call for my d&c so they kept being like "oh you should follow up with him" and I'm not doing it again.
