Ok, so I thought that one accupuncture treatment was going to be the end of all treatments. I was CURED!! So, at least I thought I was. I was swaying my hips and bending at the waist without any pain. However, there was this sharp pain in my right quadracep. That pain was causing me to limp like a veteran of war. I thought it would be ok for me to grit my teeth and bear the pain until it goes away.

I am not as tough as I thought I was. The pain was constant every day. It felt as if I were hit by a moving car right smack in the middle of my leg; or maybe even by a snowmobile on a downhill run. The only thing that worked was 3 excedrin every 4-6 hours. But now I was worried about burning a hole in my stomach lining from all that excedrin.

I finally gave in and called the accupunturist to schedule another appointment. I am glad that I did. It has only been 3 hours since I had seen her and I have not needed to take a single asprin or excedrin. I am even able to bend my knee. Wow! This stuff really works!

Wow.. I can read your blog nicely with IE, without the missing text on the right side, that is.. Anyway, I'm always afraid of needles so I think a visit to the accupunturist will be very terrifing to me. Though, the results are really amazing.
re-comment: Nope, I'll still be in Malaysia. It'll be nice to go to Canada to study though..

maybe I should look into accupuncture for my headaches. It might do some good.
Glad you're not in pain anymore

It's amazing what some well-placed needles can do. Sounds like just about nothing to cure what sounds like a whole lotta pain.
