Title: ACUPUNCTURE
Post by BIX on Apr 2^nd, 2007, 9:49pm

Hey guys hoping for some info, and if any one has tried acupuncture(spelling?) I am currently a triptan user and an O2 addict. Both work for me, except for the occasional rebound from triptans when in a cycle. My nuro tells me that all meds will eventually cause rebounds ( has anyone else been told this?) I have had good success with prednisone for ending cycles. So I am looking for info if anyone has had succes with acupuncture. Thanks for any info .

Many have tried it with little or no result which doesn't mean for a moment it won't work for you personally.

My auntie found she could no longer afford to both smoke and gamble so got acupuncture to help her quit the evil weed. Only days later she was again smoking like a chimney but it was months before we realised she hadn't had a single bet - not even bingo.

You work it out.

I've never heard of being an 02 addict.

I tried it twice. Didn't work at all. YMMV
