Hi Pam,

My RSD started in my right shoulder and arm. I have a low back problem that my chiropractor is working on. I did accupuncuture once a week for five weeks. It did help my low back. However, the doctor said we couldn't continue he felt it was making my RSD worse. I now have full body RSD, it went full body a couple of years after I had tried accupuncture. One of my doctors suggest that I never do it again and to stay away from needles period.
Sorry, to sound so hopeless what didn't work for me may work for you. Good luck in your decision!!!
Take care,
Sherrie
