Hey guys,

It's been a while. I hope everyone with me in Eastern America found a way to keep pain minimal during the blizzard!

Since I've been off this forum, I've gotten pretty sick of western medicine. My doctors barely listen and when they do give me anything it either doesn't help, makes my symptoms worse, or only gives me side effects. Currently I am med-free and I don't remember the last time I felt this alert! Zero changes in my pain since dropping my meds, too.

In light of that, I've been considering pursuing eastern medicine, particularly acupuncture, massage, and herbalism. Has anybody else tried these or have tips on which essential oils and modalities have been most helpful?

Take care and stay warm (if that is what helps you)!
