Acupuncutre

Hi Girls

Well I had my first acupunture treatment yesterday and even though I have had this treatment before (for sinus problems) I was still relatively apprehensive.

I met with Dr Kevin Cao at 3pm, we sat and discussed my cancer and all the treatments I had undertaken and the side effects of the tamoxifin...I then had to lay on his bed while he proceeded to put needles into specific pressure points over my body - head, ears, hands, wrist, calf, ankle and feet...I layed there with the needles for what felt like hours - probably a good half hour.

Once the needles were removed Dr Cao said I should start to feel the effects immediately - I was a little sceptical as I did not feel any different from when I walked in there....I made an appointment to see him same time next week and went home.

Last night was the first night I have not had a hot flush during the night in 6 months....and as yet have not had a hot flush all day  - it is now 4pm on Sunday...is this a miracle treatment - I hope so.

Hopefully this continues, only time will tell.

I am now looking forward to my treatment next week.

Talk to you soon
