Dealing with azoospermia?

:hugs: Shorty, I am so sorry

I like your attitude, CM, that is a great way to look at it! It will be nice to be busy in the TWW, for sure.

SND, hope your ok... let me know if you need to talk.

Anyone else want to join our secret facebook group?

I'd love to join it!
 
Hi Ladies
I just thought I'd pop in and say hello.
I am very sorry for those who are having a tough time and have BFN's, its just so tough.

I am doing well, terrified every time I go to the loo incase I find some blood when I wipe, I can't seem to get past that. I am sooooo tired like I just want to sleep all day (not knackered tired, just sleepy - not like me at all!) - my boobs are massive, I have outgrown all bras already, but do not want to go shopping yet, so will make do until after my scan on 10th Aug. I can't believe i have these symptoms already, it's very strange. I have also had a brain like a sieve, I walk around the house to do something, then forget what I was going to do - not very helpful at work - where everything is serious!

Other than that I am good, we have told our close family and they were so excited, but don't feel we should tell everyone yet - its just too early.

I had a little scare on Monday, on Saturday we spent the day with my nieces, and on Monday her mum called to say she has chicken pox - so I had to rush to the hospital for blood tests - which have come back showing I have the antibodies - thank god! although I am still goign to keep away for a few weeks just in case!

I thought I would be quite worried about the donor thing and feel strange about it, but although it does still bother me, I seem to be able to pass the thought on quite quickly, and DH is really really happy, pampering me like crazy - I am barely allowed to do anything and our house needs a lot of tidying up after our building project!

Anyway I am at work so better get on - wishing everyone here the best of luck and lots of love.

It is a tough journey, and although I am not out of it yet, I do apprecaite the unconditional love and support offered here by everyone for the last 2yrs+.
 
Step Mummy - Im soo glad everything is going good with you!!! Im sure as time goes by you will almost fully forget that the baby is not biologically DH's. It wont and does not matter anyways...just as long as you both love it, thats all the matters.
Yay for baby brain lol

As for me....I am officially on the IVF train. I started my gonal f shots last night. I was beyond scared, but it was not as bad as I thought it would be. Just like everyone said, drawing blood hurts more. I still just hope this whole process goes by fast. I have more doctor apts than my grandparents do!
 
hey ladies! been following this thread at a distance.....But update on me!

Sooooo our third IVF is scheduled to have eggs retrieved Sept 10!! So I am on BCP until Aug 26 then begin microdose lupron 8/29 twice daily, then 8/31 300u gonal F and add menopur 9/3 (unknown dose now) and continue until trigger then ER :) I'm so glad I dont have to DR and this cycle is short. I feel like the BCP in combo with full strength lupron supresses me way to much as I was off to a slow start in last 2 cycles. Hopefully this gives us more blasts and some frosties but more importantly our IVF rainbow miracle :)
 
Hey everybody

I thought I better post on here so you don't think I've completely disappeared.

I just haven't felt up to posting in here lately. Not sure what it is but I think it's just been so depressing for me to see so many struggling with this diagnosis, waiting and waiting for things to get moving, receiving bad news etc etc. I'm not sure about the rest of you ladies, but I feel physically sick each time a new user posts on this thread with the azoo diagnosis. It's just horrible :nope: Right now I'm trying my best to stay positive and look forwards rather than backwards and I've just found it easier not to come in here. I've also not wanted to sound all down and sad in here, when it's the last thing you girlies - especially the newbies - want to listen to.

That doesn't mean I don't think of you all though and I'm sure I'll be back here soon.

Just had our 4th DIUI last Saturday and fingers crossed it's our turn now.

Sending you all lots of love and :dust: :hugs:
 
Sorry I've been AWOL - looks like I've got some catching up to do. Hope everyone is doing ok. Keeping everything crossed for you SB and MoBaby too xx
 
silverbell - I wish you all the luck in the world with this DIUI! You deserve it! It is sad to see new people in here....but at least we do have each other.
 
Well....results are in. Everything looked normal except that my DH FSH levels are high. mTESE has been suggested at a 50% chance of retrieving sperm.

Anyone else out there with this problem that has had success?

We need to figure out if we want to do a "fresh" cycle, or frozen. Fresh is the best bet, but there is that looming 50% chance that nothing will be found- and I know that DH is not yet completely on board with using a donor. AND...this would need to happen in AUGUST! Doesn't give us much time to process anything.

This is surreal...I honestly can't understand why this happens to anyone. :cry:

-Carrie
