Anyone out there every use Acupuncture for pain. I have hand pain, back pain, neck pain, rib pain, hip pain, knee pain, foot pain, elbow pain, shoulder pain, wrist pain, facial pain and I am tired of all the meds. Can not take anti-inflammatories due to numerus GI issues. I live in Maryland. If anyone has had good luck with acupuncture and knows someone good, give me a heads up. I am willing to try anything to feel even a little better every day! Thanks

They loaded him up with painkillers and told me to bring him in the next day so they could put ...
