cwm1@cwm1 I too am trying acupuncture. I had my first session last Wed and I go for a 2nd session today. My first session was more uncomfortable than it should have been. She put needles in my head and it did hurt. I didn't say anything until she came back into the room. My head, my eyes, my teeth, and my head were hurting. I told her and she said it was my sinus as the needles did something. I really don't know what she said, but anyhow I am going back today with an open mind. It is expensive and she does not take insurance. With my pain from neuropathy, fibromyalgia, lymphedema.I am willing to give it a try. While I am here, can anyone tell me about lymphedema and what they are doing for it. I have it in my left leg. The doctors are saying it is idiopathic just ass they say my neuropathy is. I don't have diabetes and have not had cancer. I find it concerning that I have two medical conditions that they say are idiopathic. The doctors really did little testing to look for a reason for both conditions. Have you are other group members have this issue.
