If it's not one thing it's another....venting

Last month I had my first lap done. Doc diagnosed me with stage 3 endo and polycystic ovaries (not the syndrome). My fiance and I have been trying for a baby for nearly 4 years with no results. When Doc diagnosed me we assumed we were well on our way to conception. At my one month post op Doc said now would be the perfect time to start trying (boy was I happy) because I am all nice and clean inside. Before I leave he says he'll need to do a sperm count on my fiance just to rule everything else out. I take the cup home, he does his thing, and take it to the lab at the hospital. Feeling real good at this point....I call Doc and he says he'll call me back with the results that afternoon. They call and tell us that after all the hell of Endo, PSO, and trying to conceive my fiance has a sperm count of 0. Not one single sperm showed up in the test, not one. I was histerical and he is so upset. We call his mom who is a nurse, who works at a hospital and she gets on the ball calling the urologist(sp). Doc said he might be making sperm but they just can't get out and whatever is causing this is probably genetics. We go to my mom's to talk to her (she's not his biggest fan) and she tells me that maybe it's a sign I should find someone else, a private donor to do it the "old fashioned way", or not have kids. Great support from my mom. I am just so upset and shocked about it all. I don't know what to say to him other than I love you and we'll be alright. He's not taking it well and says he feels like less of a man, not good enough, etc etc. He has stood by me through my lap, mood swings, lack of labido, endo pain, doctors visits, etc etc. WHY US? Why not someone who doesn't want kids...I wish my mom would look past her dislike for him (it's been four years) and see how much the situation is hurting both of us. I am sorry this is so long but you gals have been here for every other question and vent I've had and I appreciate it.
