Red Sheets?

So I've been reading this book:
and I must say that so far it is pretty good. I'm down to the last 2 chapters. It is about a woman in her early 40's trying to have a second child. Her FSH numbers are too high and every doctor she sees says that there is nothing they can do for her. She eventually goes to a couple of Chinese Medicine Men and they give her several herbs to try and one even told her to only make love on blood red sheets. Crazy, but hey at this point I'll try anything! She also completely changed her eating habits. So, tonight I am off to Whole Foods to buy only organic meat, fruits and vegetables. I already drink organic milk so that isn't a problem. Then I'm going to stop at Target in search for some blood red sheets. It may sound a little extreme, but I'm willing to try anything!

I went to the doctor on Friday and my follicles were not where they should be. I go back again tomorrow for another sonogram to check and see if they have grown at all. My doctor wants to do blood work next month to "see if we missed something." I asked what the "something" was that they think they might have missed and the response I got was "Oh we just want to be safe that we didn't miss something. It is strange that your body is not responding to the extra dose of medicine." Lovely......I'm not too pleased with my doctors right now. I mean really you are going to leave me hanging for a whole month and make me wonder and worry what on earth they could have missed? Not cool. I'm going to try again tomorrow and see if I get a better response.
