Hi @Glescagirl. You can use the search bar here to look up various threads about acupuncture. It comes up from time to time.
I've looked into it, it's been studied a lot. As far as I can tell for hot flushes it's had mixed success. Some people have found it helps but others not. My oncologist looked it up for me once and was emphatic that there was no proof it helped.
I've discussed it with my (new) oncologist who says there is some evidence that it helps with joint pain. I'm going to give it a go. If you do, let us know how you get on! K xox
