Another Intro

in Trouble TTC

I've been lurking for awhile, but with Mother's day weekend already here I'm struggling more than I thought I would. It's the first one since the diagnosis. 

 DH and I have been TTC for 18 months. He is  in his late thirties, I'm in my mid twenties. SA came back with 0% morphology and we are currently waiting to get in to see an RE. All my tests have come back clear.

It is normally a 3-6 month wait (where we are anyways. I'm not sure how long everyone else has to wait!) just to get in for a consultation so we've been playing the waiting game these past few months. To make matters worse, I found out on Thursday that the original nurse had forgotten to send our referral to the clinic and did it two months later than she was supposed to. After an hour of tears and angry phone calls to both my doctor and RE, I'll be meeting with my doctor on Monday who will be calling the scheduling line to change the referral date.

 So that's us.

 I've been blown away by how supportive everyone here seems to be. I'm not the greatest at always posting or following up but I've been here. Sympathizing with the sad stories and rejoicing for the good ones. 

Looking forward to getting to know everyone a little better.

    Welcome to the board. Sorry about the long wait to get in to the RE. We are dealing with MFI also and it is not an easy road. Has your DH seen a urologist yet? If not you may want to ask about that tomorrow. We didn't have to wait to see the RE but did wait a few months to see the uro. Also ask about supplements for your dh. There is info about that in our newbie link if you've haven't already checked that out.

    Thanks everyone! We need a referral here to see the urologist but I'll definitely bring that up at the appt.

     

    Any information at this point is better than just waiting. Good luck to everyone else as well!
