Ryan had his appointment last week and we found out that he has something called a varicosele, basically a varicose vein that causes infertility in men. The varicosele doesn't really change anything for us, we have decided to continue with IVF and possibly pursue surgery after I am pregnant. The doctor said this is an option many patients pursue. Great news. However, he ordered some genetic testing to rule out any deletions on the Y choromosome, which takes anywhere from 4-6 weeks to get the results back. We have a follow up appointment for that on February 13. This means that our IVF course is getting pushed back at least a few weeks.
Last week, right after our urologist appointment, I had my first true break down. Poor Ryan. He is so awesome for putting up with me but had no idea what to do with me :) I was better the next day and haven't had any "moments" since, but I am sure they will come.
This Wednesday, I go in for my final tests before starting the IVF course and will be ready to begin after we see the doctor on the 13th. So for now more waiting....
