Hi Also New

Post by Gerry on Wed 23 Mar 2011 - 0:00

Hi,

New here, new year and trying new things. Been TTC for three years. Got married and knew we wanted to have children immediately. when nothing happened after our 2nd year of marriage we went to a FS and have been thru 2 ICSI's as due to low sperm count and the rest, it is our only option. Decided to see a new FS, who comes highly recommended, but unfortunately has a close to three month waiting list, So June we start this road again :Unsure to try a new proc called IMSI, heard it has a higher success rate but do not know much about it except that the microscope is more powerful than the ICSI one so the best sperm is selected. Been trying to remain positive, but its hard and that lead me here. I need to hear that there are tons people who have overcome Smiley .

So thats my story. Now I need to find away to fall asleep

HI Gerry

Good luck there is nothing more frustrating than waiting to start waiting.
IMSI sounds interesting I also had ICSI but was lucky my only two surviving embies implanted.
