Hi

I wondered if anyone could share any information regarding PGD / IVF treatment.

After 4 miscarriages and some thorough tests carried out a Recurrent Miscarriage Clinic, it was discovered that my husband has a Chromosome Translocation which is increasing the risk of miscarriage. One of the options offered to us is to have PDG (Pre-implantation Genetic Diagnosis) which is similar to IVF. Has anyone had this treatment and if so, do you know the success rate? How long did the process take and is it very expensive?

Thanks

Thank you everyone for your advice and info.


I've already had consultation at Guys (at the Genetics Clinic) and they have been marvellous. I really just wanted to find out if anyone had been through the PGD treatment before I decide on the next steps. It seems quite a new procedure and is fairly costly.


Smiler - yes, we've exchanged PMs before and I meant to update you on the outcome of the RMC tests. I hope all is ok with you.

Hi Puffin,


I read an article the other day about a couple who have just had a baby through PGD due to a family history of EB (severe skin condition). It was in a magazine in the Doctors Surgery, something like South of the River I think...all about healthcare in this part of London - was in the first couple of pages.


It sounds like a really positive thing. Good luck, I do hope it works out for you.


Molly

    • This is just normal business behaviour. That's why there are so many coffee shops in ED and shops selling gifts and interiors stuff, clothes, restaurants.  If there's more than one business of a similar type then it can benefit all of them up to a saturation point and keep up quality. It's all sounding like many think Chango has made a malicious move when it actually sounds like it's owned by one guy who has a good business that has done well.   Anyway this is all great advertising for both empanada places. Very close by is the organic grocer who sells really good value and very tasty samosas and other Indian snacks which are also worth trying. 
    • Hello, Does this lovely little panther have a name? & Is he neutered & microchipped?
    • Well I don’t approve for a shop doing the same food to open so near - just wrong in my opinion. Why not go to the village, Peckham - foot fall would be great in Peckham and certainly more multi  cultural than ED. Village has money but doubt foot fall would be as good as ED.  At least they could have gone to the stretch leading up to Peckham Rye or why not bottom of Barry Road?? Or even North Cross Road I for one, on principal won’t be going in.
    • Heh yeah haven't even bothered to remove the emdash. The OP is AI slop as well.
