| 2009-09-21 | Amanda | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you very much for the information you have provided. I will definitely look into this more. Sincerely, Amanda |
| 2009-08-23 | Helenmary | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | It is clear what she stated. Later that same night I sent the email, I layed on the couch and my calfs did not hurt as much as they usually do...all the time. I actually fell asleep in the position of having my legs straight out. Normally no position relieve the pain in my legs and the pain is all over. Last night was the second night I believe, to my surprise once again no pain in my lower calves. I will not give up on the acupuncture... what you say is true, sometimes things get worse before they get better! 2 years of constant, constant pain, was alievated in one area per say for the first time 2 years! Amazing! I can deal with whatever minutes of excruiciating pain if the results are this, maybe we can work ilttle by little on different parts of my body. I am so so excited! |
| 2009-06-23 | john | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you for your quick response, I will look into finding an acupuncturist who practices with chinese herbals...natural is always the best way instead of putting foreign chemicals or meds into your body, that may cause additonal side effects. I definitely do not want to do cortisone injections. Thanks again |
