Well, I am very happy about my foray into Acupuncture...it has proved to be a very eye opening experience.
One disheartening thing, the cost.
I have several medical issues, including seizures, and my body was responding favorably...
However, found out today that the cost for my COMPLETE treatment (65 visits and herbal medicine) would be $6800
Doctor is confident that he could get me off of my medications and switch me to herbal medicine, which sounds wonderful....
BUT, here in America, there is just too much money to be made off of "sick" individuals like myself.....so I am stuck with "Western" medicine that treats only "symptoms" for now
I urge anyone with the means that has health concerns to try Acupuncture....and if I am ever able to...I would SOOOO do the complete course of treatment....I would love nothing more than to be off my very sedating medications and have my life back....
