Acupuncture was able to minimize the horribleness of the periodic fatigue when it came on. It was like a light switch, with immediate improvement (considering I was falling asleep during the assessment just before treatment, it was pretty night and day). It has not reduced the frequency of the periods of fatigue (where I am not able to work or tend to my children between 7am-8:30pm; it could be going to sleep at 1pm and not waking up until the next day or sleeping at 6pm), which concerns me, but I don’t feel as deeply bone tired as before when the fatigue occurs.
