accupunture?
 
Hi All,
Have any one use accupunture for your RSD? What is your experience? Did you find that helpful? I had recently tried a few session of accupunture for my pelvic pain. I found it not only lessen my pelvic pain but also the RSD pain. Can the needle go into the RSD affected area?
Any feedback is greatly appreciated?

I have full body RSD and have had acupuncture several times...

I find that acupuncture reduces my pain levels....

I've never had added pain from the acupuncture needles....


***These are my experiences.... please remember that no two of us respond exactly the same to any treatments or medications***


I wish you well!
:hug:

Yes, i tried acupuncture. unfortunately, it caused my whole body to spasm and flare up severely (just had it done in right arm, 1 needle) as well as my right arm to go ice cold and really blue/purple and my arm hand and fingers to contort in a really creepy way. i didnt know arms and fingers bent those ways...and i went to the er that same day.

im not saying it cant help, but i didnt have much luck w/ it.
the dr was really nice though and was really good at what he does.

Hi,
Thanks for those who had respond to my post. It seems we are responding to the accupunture in different way.
Take care!
