This sucks

Still no SA results.

I called the RE's office that had them and they said they faxed them again this morning. I called the Dr's office and they said they had gotten them and I could speak to my dr about them when I have my appointment on Tuesday. Um, nooo, I told them I wanted to know them in advance of my appointment so I could speak with my husband about it and know what we are dealing with and how we want to proceed. She says okay, we can get them to you before your appointment, but probably not today because the dr hasn't signed off on them and we are short staffed and we close at noon (it was around 11:00 when I was talking to them). So I told her I really needed them today since I work late on Monday and won't have a chance to talk to my Dh that day. (Maybe I should have clarified...I work till 11:00 p.m.!) So she said they would try to have a nurse call me. Well it's now noon and no call. So I guess now I won't be getting them until Monday.

This SUCKS! I just want to KNOW if my Dh's sperm are normal or not. I was supposed to have those results yesterday and now I have to wait until next week! This is driving me crazy. I am just sitting around wondering about it and trying to figure out what we should do and I can't because I do not have all the information. I could have dealt with it, if I had just been told it would take that long to get the results. But it's the fact that I was expecting to get them and now I didn't, that makes me so mad.

I need something to distract me.

Shannon, sorry you have to wait until Monday.
If only they had told you it would take that long.
How frustrating!

Wow, I hate it when Drs do stuff like that! I mean, REALLY, the least they could do is get test results to you when they say they will. I mean, to them it may just be a number/whatever, but it's your LIFE.

I'm sorry honey.

Im sorry Shannon, thats crappy. Espically since (if i remember correctly) you had to pay for the SA, the least they can do is give you the dam results!

I'm really sorry that you are having to play the run around with the doctor. I kind of went through the same thing when I was waiting for DH's SA results awhile back. I called the place he went to and they said a few days and then when I called them back on a monday they said they faxed them friday so I called the doctor and they said they never got them. So called the other lady back and had them refax them. Then the doctor couldnt read them so they had to call the place and have that place read them to the doctor. When I finally got them they were good. I would talk to DH about what you would want to do if they came back either way. That way you have both sides covered. I hope you get some answers soon.

I'm sorry, Shannon! That really stinks!! I have no idea why some people need to be so difficult!

I went through something like this w/ a new OB's office that I went to. I didn't stay there, it was too frustrating dealing with rude, inconsiderate people.

I know it's annoying, but the best way I've found to keep myself busy is cleaning. Clean out the fridge, the cupboards, your closet, rearrange the furniture, alphabetize your bookshelves, movies, cds, etc. You'll be so tired afterwards, you won't even be able to think straight.
