ICSI

We received the embryologist report in the mail over the weekend and I thought there was a typo because the report states that the 14 mature eggs were inseminated via ICSI. ICSI sounds like icksey and stands for intracytoplasmic sperm injection - where they choose one sperm to inject directly into each egg rather than to just see how the eggs would fertilize if the sperm & eggs were combined in the dish- was not originally indicicated for us because there were no concerns with Justin's sperm. I called the office to see if my readout was a typo or if they actually did change the protocol. Long story short, I received a call back from Dr. Park who said that protocols can change mid cycle but since no one discussed this change with us, they will not charge us for the service if the insurance doesn't cover it! Whew! I'm pretty sure this is one thing the insurance won't cover and it would
cost us a good $2k if not more. It's a little concerning that they manipulated our 'stuff' in a way that they did not discuss with us, but at the same time God makes no mistakes. This process has been bathed in prayer so maybe it was in His plan to hand-pick the sperm. Who knows, I just gotta trust! Also, Dr. Park asked how I was feeling and if I took a home test yet. I told him I took a couple last weekend and he basically laughed at me! It made me feel a lot better that those negatives really didn't mean anything. I go in for the blood draw tomorrow at 7:30 and should
hear the results by lunch time. Eeeeek!
