Hello @charlenesf and welcome to the NETs support group on Mayo Connect. Thank you for sharing your remarkable story of your journey with NETs. It sounds as if you have lived a full life with NETs and with very few symptoms.
You mentioned, "I did acupuncture during the decade after diagnosis when no medical treatments were available." How was acupuncture helpful to you at that time? Were there other lifestyle changes that helped you?
