So good to hear from you again. Cymbalta was great for me (after I got over the initial side effects), I was so disappointed to have to discontinue it due to tachycardia and hypertension. I have to stay at a very low dose of Pamelor due to the same issues.
The acupuncturist at UC Irvine uses these "bandaids". I was told they are called acupuncture seeds or tacks.
