So I spoke with Dr.L's assistant today about the genetics results. DH has a deletion of the short arm of chromosome 13. The report says that this is considered a normal variant but cannot be ruled out completely in absence of other causes for the losses. Dr. L wants us to speak to a geneticist but feels that the finding is not significant at this time and we will probably proceed with injectables and IUI once the geneticist gives the all clear. This is good news! Injectables IUI is cheaper then IVF and PGD but I'm still not convinced that it will help.
I also talked to the genetic nurse today and she said it is not looking good for getting into see the doctor this week so it looks like it will be a teleconference in a couple of weeks. I'm getting to the point where I don't even care about waiting anymore. I've waited so long, what's a couple more months?
