Thanks again for responding to my post. I just am puzzled as to why my cm would have extra cells if there is no infection. Any thoughts? It did make my dr raise his eyebrow. Also, my sis says maybe they made a mistake in my hubby's SA...could that reasonably happen? I know I shouldn't be concerned, but I can't help it :o) Michele~
