Interesting to hear that you get acupuncture for abdominal pain. I have been thinking of looking into it.
How often do you get treated?

I have been going for acupuncture for pancreatitis and biliary colic pain for about 15 years.
When I have flareups I go every 2 weeks for about 2 months. The pain settles down. Since December 2022, after taking statins for 3 weeks and the bivalent covid shot, my pancreatic pain was excruciating. I have had 2 acupuncture treatments and scheduled for my 3rd appt. Next week.
I have never taken pain meds ever for pancreatitis and biliary colic.
Give it a try. Be open to it and be very relaxed during your treatment.
It has worked for me.
Take care
👍
