Thanks to those who gave in-put about acupuncture when I posted a couple of
weeks ago.  I had my 5th acupuncture treatment today and my elbow is
definitely feeling better.  I don't understand how it works but sure am
hoping that it continues to reduce the pain.  The acupuncturist said that
the effect is cumulative and he thinks that it will work well for me.  Time
will tell, but for now I'm glad I'm trying it.  He wants me to have between
10 and 15 treatments.

I had accupuncture done on my feet a few years ago to deal with pain
related to planters fasciitis.  I was sceptical at first, but it did
work over time.

Good for you. I see one to keep me stable and as pain
free as possible from my fibro. That is on top of my
bucket of medications for RA and other things. lol  My
aunt spent 6 months in agony from shingle's pain and he
was able to relieve it in 8 sessions.

I've got my fingers crossed for you!  and keep us posted, it's always nice to
know how these complementary therapies are helping or not helping folks.
