Just to make sure it isn't a pinched nerve issue somewhere in the body - spine or joints? Or acupuncture?
Hi Jo*mar,

Chiropractic is an avenue I'm yet to explore, and am seriously considering.

In your opinion, would it be worth while seeing a Chiro even though an MRI of lower spine and Ultrasounds of my ankles and wrists failed to reveal anything?

I know the Chiro will run Xrays as a matter of course (I used to be a Chiropratic Assistant a decade ago), but feel certain these Xrays won't show up anything the MRI wouldn't have picked up already.

The main reason I'm considering it is the off chance that an adjustment or two might just release an underlaying entrapped nerve.

If others here has found relief after visiting a Chiropractor I'm keen to hear about it. Other suggestions are also welcome of course.

At this point in time I'm avoiding Acupuncture as I'm a severe needle phobe. Although, if others have found significant relief I'd be open to exploring it. There comes a time when neuropathic pain trumps fear of needles.
