Could it be Sciatica?

I had horrible sciatica and leg weakness for 2 years . Went to several doctors who could not help me… Even the Cleveland Clinic! In a last ditch effort I went to an acupuncturist. I think she was the only person who actually examined me!
Well as it turned out, my hip was partially out of its socket for all that time! She gently positioned it back and the pain was gone instantly. So much for my faith in doctors.

@lizzie1 that’s encouraging. Yes I’ll try acupuncture if the dry needling isn’t successful. I’ve read in many instances acupuncture helped with sciatica. I’m not giving up yet.

I often say that my acupuncturist and physiotherapist are the only 2 people who actually figured out the problem, went to it, treated it and I left feeling distinctively better. And, my insurance doesn’t cover the acupuncture. All out of pocket. Not dissing regular doctors……
