Improved count!!!!

For those of you following along at home the reason we were doing IVF is because hubby had basically zero sperm, highest count ever was 14 (not million, just 14). He had varicocele repair surgery just over a year ago but the only improvement was going from zero to the 14 or so.  When we started going down the IVF path he stopped the soy based protein shakes he was drinking twice daily, started taking Fertility Blend and CoQ10 and increased his caloric intake (he'd lost a LOT of weight in the past 2 years).

We have an appointment next week to talk to our RE about our options post IVF.  Hubby did a semen analysis yesterday in prep for that meeting. So nurse calls me today with results of yesterday's test. Get this 1 MILLION!!!!!  I know that most people would be devastated at a sperm count of one million but we are elated!  That opens up the possibility of IUI for us, maybe, hopefully.

This is the best news we've gotten in awhile!
