    I have and i think it helps with the stress of getting another episode but after about a month 2x a week along with a diuretic pill and low sodium diet I was able to go 3 weeks without an episode . I don't think acupuncture alone helps though rolleyes

    Hi Helen

    My only experience with acupuncture was for back pain several years ago.  No help, honestly.  And those Chinese medicine pills given along with it, made me feel very strange!!!

    I remember when I first joined this forum, I seem to remember a few people talking about acupuncture. You might do a search on that subject.  There's also a discussion forum dedicated to alternative medicine, where they might be covering that subject.

    I'm sorry.  I wish I could be of more help!!  

    Best of luck to you!!!  I hope you find more info about it!!!

    Take good care,

    J-
