week 43 of acu

Had acupuncturist appointment today. Told her IVF is scheduled for June. I will give her more info as it becomes available to me. I am to take these herbs from 4/28/07 - 4/3/07:

1. Chinese # 0611021-20061102-1-6
2. Chinese Angelica (Radix Angelicae Sinensis--Danggui)
3. Danshen Root (Radix Salviae Mil Tiorrhizae--Danshen)
4. Dodder Seed (Semen Cuscutae--Tusizi)
5. Glossy Privet Fruit (Fructus Ligustri Lucidi--Nuzhenzi)
6. Himalayan Teasel Root (Radix Dipsaci--Xuduan)
7. Prepared Rehmannia Root (Radix Rehmanniae Preparata--Shudihuang)
8. Safflower (Flos Carthami--Honghua)
9. Turmeric Root Tuber (Radix Curcumae--Yujin)
10. White Peony Root (Radix Alba--Baishao)

I asked her if I was to drink the nasty "dinosaur-named one" from the last cycle. She said she had included it. After I told her I had a really hard time drinking it, but would keep drinking it if I had to, she switched it out for number 1 above. She said it was about the same thing, but not as strong.

For the next 7 days I am to take the following:

1. Chinese # 0611021-20061102-1-6
2. Chinese Angelica (Radix Angelicae Sinensis--Danggui)
3. Danshen Root (Radix Salviae Mil Tiorrhizae--Danshen)
4. Dodder Seed (Semen Cuscutae--Tusizi)
5. Himalayan Teasel Root (Radix Dipsaci--Xuduan)
6. Prepared Rehmannia Root (Radix Rehmanniae Preparata--Shudihuang)
7. Red Peony Root (Radix Paeoniae Rubra--Chishao)
8. Safflower (Flos Carthami--Honghua)
9. Turmeric Root Tuber (Radix Curcumae--Yujin)
10. White Peony Root (Radix Paeoniae Alba--Baishao)
