Someone pressed Ultra Spin Mode!

Ok, for some reason, the March Teacups have been extra disconcerting . . . I write the rest in dialogue-ish form because unbelievably, its easier to follow that way . . .
DH calls his urologist's office on Tuesday, March 1st: "Is there any chance you would fax my SA results to my wife's fertility doctor's office?"  (Our rationale was-- if they are good, let's see if my doctor would like to proceed with anything this cycle, this was my cd 3)

DH's Dr's office to DH: "sure."

Me to my Dr's office:  "I just wanted to give you a heads up that my DH's post-op SA results will be faxed over and I would like my Dr to review in case they are good enough for an IUI, we'd like to perhaps try to get that scheduled, I am cd 3 today."

My Dr's office to Me: "ok."

Same day a few hours later . . .

DH gets a call back from his Dr's office: "We cannot fax your results to anyone including you until your Dr reviews the results with you at your Monday appointment."

Sigh.

Three days later (my cd 6) . . .

DH gets a call from his Dr's office now saying: "Sure we'll fax those results to your wife's doctor!

--I think to myself, What the heck? --

So DH calls me and I then call my Dr. 

--No one understands the emotional plight ladies riding the teacups go through!--

Me to my nurse: "I don't know what the results are, however if they are good I'm sure if we can still look at an IUI this cycle since I'm already cd 6, I haven't been on clomid or anything, perhaps at least next cycle"

My nurse to Me: "Since you're O'ing regularly and because we know there is male-factor, sometimes just the IUI is all that is needed to help."

--I can accept this (I'm sort of crunched for time, do I have any other choice than to accept).-- 

My nurse to Me: "We will be closing today at noon," [Its 11:40 am] "we are having a half day today, so call back on Monday to make sure we got DH's results from his Dr's office."

My brain: --Gah!!--

 My Nurse says:  "Why don't we assume they are good results, and schedule you for an ultrasound on your cd 11, and try for an IUI on cd 12?"

My brain exclaims: --What?!--

So I have an appointment on Wednesday, March 9th for an ultrasound.  This appointment is my first ever scheduled ultrasound for an IUI.  I'm slightly over-elated at this fact.  I understand it is a little like putting the cart before the horse; my Dr still hasn't seen the results, DH and I haven't seen the results, so Monday is still the tell-all if we can proceed with said appointment. I also understand that if the results are not yet IUI numbers, I will have to cancel the ultrasound and thus, the IUI.  I explained these scenarios to DH and we are like always, cautiously optimistic.   

I just wanted to share my exciting little ride on my ever so nauseating, teacups.  Monday is almost here.  Please be good.  Please be good.  Please be good.
