Thanks for the responses! Bonnie, I live in Eastern Canada and the only
listing I can find for an RE is Ontario.Way too far to travel and
see!I'm lucky my family dr is amazing and always seems very up to
date.He's open to homopathy, and all kinds of alternative medicine.The
best thing is if he doesn't know what's wrong he'll send you to someone
who will.My husband has had a couple s/a done and they say his count is
only 17M.He smokes and can't seem to quit.Other than the smoking he's
very healthy.He hasn't had any testing lately, he has a 24/7 job (owns a
towing company)and lately with all the snow he's not home much.I'm
really excited about the U/S.I've wanted a baby for over 5 years.(the
vasectomy wasn't my idea!)Every month gets harder and harder.(I turn 31
this year.)Best wishes to all!
