Well, today I went back to the acupuncturist for my second visit.
I’ve been kind of sitting on the fence for a few days about how the treatment worked, because the one spot in my shin that hurt when the needle went in — and the only point that hurt and bled when it came out — began really acting up on me last Friday.
It started when I just lightly tapped the acupuncture point on the mattress, and almost screamed in pain because it felt like someone was driving nails into my leg. I thought it was strange that it just started acting up three days after the initial treatment, so I figured it would stop just as quickly.
But from then to now, every time I move my leg the wrong way or accidentally touch it with something, the shooting pain returns.
So I told the doctor about it today, and he said it’s because something was stirred up that needed to be… but he’s never had it happen on that particular point. It’s usually on the hand.
Anyhow, he decided to only use 4 needles instead of 10 today, because he asked my body with his little Kinesiology technique and decided that my body was sensitive today. For the other points he used acupressure rather than acupuncture.
The good news is (or, the better news is, because that wasn’t really bad news) that apparently the removal of the egg allergy worked, and I tested clear for it. So today it was on to calcium.
And next week… back to the needles for the next allergy!
