The savings I made with Freedom Fertility Pharmacy were not worth the hassle I have experienced!
Yesterday the Pharmacy promised to deliver my medications today via FedEx. I checked the tracking order number this morning and the package had made it to Virginia Beach early this morning. Hooray! We headed out late morning for some shopping, and as we were out I had a feeling I should check the delivery status with fedEX one more time. It said ‘Delivery Failed. Delivery rescheduled for Monday 16th’. I freaked! Chris, my lovely husband, calmly took my phone away from me (to save me from throwing it somewhere I guess) and called FedEx for me. He asked if we could pick it up from their delivery centre. Not a problem, they said, pick it up after 2.30pm from the main office. So at 2.45pm we arrived at the delivery centre – and it was shut!!! It had closed at 1pm.
Why oh why did they tell us to pick it up after 2.30pm if it was going to be shut??!!! So Chris knocked on the side door and made a bit of a racket. I had almost given up hope when a man opened the door. Chris explained that the FedEx centre had told us to come after 2.30pm to pick our refrigerated medicine……please please please can we get it!! So the man kindly went to look for our parcel, and I signed for it. Thank goodness! A huge sigh of relief.
All became clear what had happened. FedEx never made it to our house because the address was incorrectly spelt! I don’t know how many times I confirmed my address with Freedom Fertility. So it wasn’t FedEx’s fault at all, just the Pharmacy.
I will get my prescription from Walgreens next time, I don’t care how much I won’t save. A big fat Freddie Fail F for Freedom Fertility. Never again Freedom Fertility.
On a more positive note, I have my meds now, just in time to inject myself in 10 minutes time (1130pm to be precise).
Another post on that tomorrow. Wish me luck, because I am nervous as hell about this pesky injection.
I was nervous with my first one too. It’s really easy-you can do it!

Thanks! It was OK, but it took about 20 minutes to pluck up the courage to do it – fortunately my husband stepped in in the end. You are right, it was easy in the end, it’s just getting over that psychological hurdle! If I ever have to do that again, it will be much easier 🙂

I have a pretty funny post about giving myself my first one-I’ll try and track it down 🙂
