After the nurse at my RE's office told me DH's SA results (thousands, not millions), she said there was no need to do get another sample to see if that one was a fluke. Ya great, they will get their $$$ whether our IVF works or not, or even if it gets cancelled b/c we don't have any embies to transfer.
Well, after talking it over with DH, we just did not feel comfortable with that advice. I made him an appt with a Urologist who specializes in Male Infertility for next Friday.
His name? Dr. Seaman...

Lol sorry, that name is just too perfect. Sounds like he's in the right profession.
Good luck at the appointment, I hope you're able to figure out what's going on!

This is HILARIOUS!!!! Good luck to your DH and way to go with the second opinion!
(MH's first sample was 300,000. It was a total fluke. We're still MFI due to motility, but samples are around 50-80 million).
