S.S. to the Rescue!

Well I'll be damned. The Mister apparently has super sperm! According to the test results, he is completely normal and has "very good results" according to the nurse. At least only one of us is defective :). That is a much needed sigh of relief. WHEW! I would rather carry the burden of being defunct than have him feel guilty about it.

So what's next? I have to wait until day 1 of my next cycle (which will be ???), then call to schedule my HSG. I guess it has to be done between days 8 and 10 of my cycle. They also want me to call my insurance company so there are no surprises when I get billed. I'm going to call the hospital to ask about the cost and I've been told to advise them of my crappy insurance and perhaps they can put me on some kind of reduced cost program. No guarantees, but it's worth a shot. The nurse I spoke to today was very helpful and described the procedure to me, even though I've already filled my brain with all kinds of made-up horror stories.

Just thankful we finally received some kind of promising news. Every little breakthrough makes the light at the end of the tunnel a little brighter.
