"Lack of help with repeated miscarriage"

About: Glasgow Royal Infirmary University Hospital Wishaw / Gynaecology (Ward 13)

(as the patient),

My wife and I had a miscarriage ten days ago.

My wife's GP {a stand in GP} was going to send us to the IVF unit in the Glasgow Royal to find out if they can help my wife carry the baby full term as this is our 4th miscarriage.

Today my wife went back to her GP. It was a stand in doctor again, as her own doctor is off ill. We were now told that we are not getting sent to the Royal, as we were told it is not in her notes, about getting sent to the maternity in Glasgow Royal.

I do not know why, as we lost the baby. It is not the Royal's fault, it's her GP's problem now. We do not know how to get sent to the Royal to get help to carry the baby full term. It's just lack of paper work. No one is willing to listen or willing to help.
