Agony

Second acupuncture session today, and it was a disaster.  The needles, the cupping caused pains that made it difficult to breathe.  One needle to my hand sent electricity through my fingers.  One needle in my foot, in a place that one was last time, caused me to gasp in pain.

Then, all of a sudden, I was crying.  Not just tears leaking out of my eyes.  Huge, racking sobs.  I couldn't stop.

If I can't even endure the treatment, how will I ever get well?

Wow. I'm so sorry it was so difficult today. I have no words of wisdom, only prayers that you will somehow find your way.

I think the crying may be a good side effect of the pins....

IM so proud of you for trying and NOT GIVING UP
