Filed under: Fibromyalgia & Me
I just got back from an appointment with my doctor. What I was able to report was that I felt that things happened with the session, but couldn’t say I was any better. Of course, it was only the first appointment.
What I really wanted to find out from him was what would he truly expect me to get from acupuncture.
He believes that at some level it will help. This he felt very certain of.
Also, his experience with his patients has been that it has been very successful. Some patients he would describe the results as life changing.
I’m going to discontinue the Cymbalta. I have been taking it for 4 weeks now, and can’t say that I recognize any benefit from it. He feels that if it were going to help, that I would be able to recognize some change by now. The good news in stopping it is that I really don’t like having to take medication.
It’s afternoon, and my back still is in a lot of pain, and I now have a headache. Not a good day at all, but the hope remains.
