I have never tried acupuncture personally in the 22, (almost) 23 years into this. I have tried an abundance of other things:

- acetylcystein (free radical elimination) (often given together with DMSN cream).
- calcitonin injections (very effective for me in the early stages, on my arms = quite effective, not so much on the legs)
- bisphosphonates (treatment was too late for the legs)


And then pain patches + medications & Neurontin to keep the pain under control.
