I was surprised to see how many menatlly challanged people responsed to my last post It must have been there fixation on how road kill reminded them of there favorite holiday dinners...or maybe they remember being told to go play being invisble on there nearest free ways by there mommys. those people best find there way to the mental health sites so that the people here can share there support an not get tunred away by the mentally disturbed . |

Assuming this guy is for real, he has every reason to be pissed off. His original post, while extremely difficult to read, appeared to be nothing more than an explanation that he found something that worked for him and he was sharing it with the group. Like Fubar said, there was no obvious attempt to profit from the statement. If I'm not mistaken, there was at least one person (an accepted member of this group) among the several who admitted to trying acupuncture that said it did initially work for them and then quit working. I have absolutely no problem with running off the snake oil salesmen. I've help do it in the past and I will again. I do have a problem with raking a newby over the coals for making a seemingly innocent statement. Given time, he may have revealed himself to be either a profiteer or a Ted. At that time, it's Katie bar the door. A lot of people were on him like white on rice before they ever found out. Gator [donning flak jacket & helmet] Okay - fire away! |

Title: Re: CLUSTER FREE FROM ACCUPUNTURE Post by Charlie on Aug 3rd, 2004, 9:27pm It's accupuncture kids. How I wish there was something so simple and effective. One of the reasons it gets a lot of play, is that it isn't medical. It's harder going to a real doctor. It means that you have to play by their rules. You never know what kind of scary crap you may have to put up with when dealing with someone with a diploma. Accupuncture is waste of time, money, and energy. Charlie |

Title: Re: CLUSTER FREE FROM ACCUPUNTURE Post by Kevin_M on Aug 3rd, 2004, 9:37pm Too tedious to adequately respond to. Suffice to say, being that he has been lurking since May 9, his name does not appear on a single thread in any of the topic boards where acupuncture is mentioned. Choosing to begin a post with the word "miracle" is of course....... I would think that if he were to extoll the "miracle" of acupunture, on an acupuncture thread would have been appropriate. Sitting on his "miracle" for three months was quite the display of restraint, which was not evident in yesterday or today's post. More stuff too. Kevin M *edit* those who wish to repent or be sympathetic may do so perhaps tomorrow when four o'clock Charley rolls around again to delight in the rabble he's roused. |

Title: Re: CLUSTER FREE FROM ACCUPUNTURE Post by Kevin_M on Aug 4th, 2004, 2:06am Of course to Gator, Jayne and Kimh, I certainly respect your opinions concerning this thread also. Since beginning '02, the Medications and Treatments board complete archives will list three people claiming acupuncture stopped clusters. The question of whether it was clusters which were stopped though was dubious and left unanswered, also as to whether they were episodic or chronic was not clear. One claimed cheek and neck pain had vanished. One seemed to be convinced of his success and has not been posting since on the subject. Several days of relief were reported by some, and one claiming complete relief had such a professional answer as to wonder if he was plying the trade, his pattern didn't fit clusters very closely and left the questioning of it unanswered. An episodic claimed one years relief as of so far, which can happen for a number of reasons for a year to an episodic. So Greg, it seems, has been extremely lucky, though unposted to a single acu thread for over two years. Needless to say, there were many posts about acupuncture. Kevin M |

Title: Re: CLUSTER FREE FROM ACCUPUNTURE Post by kimh on Aug 4th, 2004, 2:55am I am well aware of the issues regarding acupuncture. It is my opinion that it is a crock of shit. Here is my problem with this thread: The name calling; The childish ridicule of another human being in pain without thoughtful consideration - it was fun for many here and continues to be so - FUCKED UP >:(; The inuendos that Greg is some snake oil salesman when there was NO indication that such was the case; The statement that he was trying to "lead us around by the nose" chrissake the guy put up one freaking post. Ridiculous; Some even insuate that Greg is Ted for fuck sake. End of rant. The only issue i am concerned about at this time is Greg the person. Whoever he is i wish him pf times. The rest is a pile of shit and completely worthless to me. PS: it's 2am and i'm grouchy 8) Clusters suck. |

Title: Re: CLUSTER FREE FROM ACCUPUNTURE Post by BlueMeanie on Aug 4th, 2004, 3:14am O.K. if Kim is right and Greg was just posting a "happy to be PF" post, than he "no doubt about it" is an episodic. Maybe he just ended a cycle. I know over the years I thought I found the cause and/or cure as each cycle ended. Of course each time they returned I realized it was a crock and there is NO cure. Not yet anyways. Down with accupuncture/chiropractor/snake oil & any of that other bullshit. PFDAN |

That was me, Gator. As I said, I tried it before I was officially diagnosed with CH. It was a bad cycle (Of course, I had no idea what a cycle was then ;) and was just about ready to "acupuncture" myself in the head with a nail gun or a 44 Magnum. I had a couple of PF days the first time I tried it but more NMM days (no more money) the next times. As I said, I don't believe it worked for me. But if it works for somebody else or for other problems, great! But I have no clue. By the way... Quote:
