Dr. G sent over my latest results, with more thoughts on Larry's SA. While the numbers may be borderline, they're ok for IVF, but he wants to boost Larry's count when we eventually go that route. Most likely will involve a modified diet and some vitamins.Latest thyroid panel: TSH … Read More »
Life as of late.
Life has been a bit nuts lately. Larry's mom is now in sheloshim, the 30 day mourning period following Nan's death. Larry had a potential job offer in NH fall through b/c his point person was in a horrific car accident. He's negotiating another offer now, but it's not looking … Read More »

(Follow up to my most recent post.) Still no progress for Larry's grandmother. She ate yesterday- something she's barely done in 2 weeks- but no progress one way or another. She is still generally unresponsive.Right now, Larry and I are operating in that mode where we're just … Read More »

And I'm not afraid to admit it.I have a call in to a fertility counselor my doc recommended whom he knows personally. Dr. G has been great about my care thus far, so I trust his recommendations. I did therapy in college, so I'm well aware of its benefits and I'm way beyond any … Read More »
Results are in.
Our Dr called us from his home yesterday. Everything has come in as normal. Low end of normal (21 million), but normal enough. Motility was a bit low, but isn't a big deal if/when we go IVF since a lab will inject sperm directly into the egg. Our dr's only concern is that … Read More »
