Default Has anyone tried acupuncture?

Hi Everyone! I don't know if this was discussed before, but I always "pooh -- poohed" the idea before. There were none in my area previously, but a woman just moved here from NJ and of course the article in the paper had glowing testimonials from some of her previous patients.

Guess I'm really getting desperate! With so many things going on, there doesn't seem to be much in the main-stream medical field that helps everything. As a reminder, this is the list: SPMS, Fibromyalgia, Neuropathy in legs and feet, Lymph Edema in feet and ankles, last but not least, Atrial Fibrillation. Hmmmm......no wonder my handful of pills keeps growing. Up to 12 daily now -- oh no,13, forgot my LDN!

Seem to have some kind of a "bug" now with more aching all over and feel like I could throw up any minute. Haven't been around any people since I'm alone, but who knows????

Anyway.....has anyone tried those needles?

Cherie.....What is the spinal fusion like? And was it the neurosurgeon who found the degenerative discs? I'm supposed to have a bone density scan sometime -- it showed up some osteoporosis six years ago, so maybe that's worse from the steroids, etc.? Would this show up any disc problems? My life feels like it's in the pits from this constant, excrutiating pain. Help please!!!!!

I'll be watching for your replies! Thanks for being there you guys!
