Guest guest Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 I have personally tried acupuncture for a "jumping nerve" in my leg that would not stop. The acupuncture not only helped my leg, but also other "issues" I was having as well as boosted my endorphins.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Hi Ronni, I hate needles. I passed out when I had fingerstick blood tests (for camp) as a kid and still require that I be allowed to lie down for any blood draw because that's how I'll end up. It's amazing I sew considering there are needles involved. I have had acupuncture done by NAET practitioners in CA, WA & MA, (and have scheduled with another one nearer me in MA for next Sat), and with one non-NAET acupuncturist (in an emergency to relieve extreme trigeminal pain caused by a dentist). I definitely prefer the smaller Japanese needles which all but one used. If done right, I don't feel the needles once they're in (most times the NAET practitioners have used 8 needles in hands, feet arms and legs). Occasionally, when they insert them they're not quite in the right spot. If I let them know they'll adjust them. The one I've been going to had a sign in her office last time I went which said " Acupuncture: A jab well done. " S S > > Ok dumb question I guess, does it hurt.

And I also have children who totally " overreact " at shot time. hmmm, that would be a HUGE " go figure " ....wishing you the best, elizabeth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't necessarily speed up healing but it does assist your body. The best treatments are those that do not interfere with " proper nutrients, " including accupuncture (or accupressure), chiropractic or osteopathic adjustments, massages, hand or foot relexology, Shiatzu, etc. Of course a person shouldn't do too many of these at one time, since overtreating with them can overwhelm the body.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 Eva, The doctor my husband saw wasn't sure if acupuncture could help or not. He was the one who recommended the 20 visits and when that was done, he suggested going to a " maintenance schedule " . Since there was no improvement in the symptoms, it didn't make sense to go to maintenance. I don't know if another doctor could have done better, or if longer with this doctor could've helped, but at that point, we had already spent $1,000 on the treatments. At the time, my husband was struggling to work (and then got fired for being sick) and we couldn't afford to do more. Maybe one day insurance will cover acupuncture and make it more accessible to more patients.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 , Thanks for your concern! was first given time off (intermittantly, on his bad spasm days) through FMLA. When he exceeded the days off allowed through FMLA and was fired (Sept. 2006), a friend gave us the names of the top 2 attorneys in Michigan that deal with employment issues. To our surprise, after we explained what happened, we were told by each of them that he didn't have a case. Since then, has qualified for Social Security disability and after a long fight, was granted long term disability through his former employer's disability carrier. I think he felt that was almost like getting revenge on them for treating him so poorly. The whole thing has been tough on both of us psychologically (having an illness that most people have never heard of, financial issues and struggling to buy insurance and COBRA, him not being the bread winner anymore, and having to go through periodic reviews that question his disability), but he does see a psychologist to help him through it. When you've talked about issues that have come up for your family with Dakota's struggles, I can relate to some of it. I hope things keep improving for Dakota and your family! in Michigan -- In achalasia , " ANGELA BAKER " <kotacj@...> wrote: > > brenda- I read where you wrote you huaband was fired for being sick. have you explored legal counsel? you could have a strong case for wrongful dismissal. any lawyer or paralegals on the board? > > Re: Acupuncture > > > Eva, > The doctor my husband saw wasn't sure if acupuncture could help or not.

I can't imagine how frightening is for you to have to fight this disease and keep the wolves at bay at the same time. I'm sure most of any disability he receives goes stright to paying COBRA.

Wow, I didn't realize they are now warning people that raw natural butter can be dangerous! That is totally ridiculous. How do they think our ancestors survived before our foods were tampered with, sterilized, contaminated, etc. ???

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 The warning on there is just because of governmental regulation. They are doing their best to put the farmers and producers of raw milk out of business. In some states in the US, you can purchase raw dairy products that are labeled " for pet consumption only. " It's just that the farmers are following government regulations to be able to put their products on the shelves. In some states, it's illegal to sell raw dairy at all!
