        To fellow insomniacs, yes I tried accupunture. It worked well for pain but not for the insomnia. My accupuncturist said it took time. I was drinking a vile tasting tea that almost made me nauseous. But after a few months I gave up on the treatment.

            I have tried so many Tx with questionably results. As I have posted before I am now using Marijuana for sleep. I use a tincture that I take when I am in bed and fall asleep in about 15 minutes. I get up once to take the trip to the little room. I go right back to sleep. I wake feeling refreshed and not the stiff soreness that I once had. I don't notice the restless legs that once plagued me. The neck and arm pain is better; I use a topical on my arm and leg for pain relief. I do not know if you can obtain it where you live or if it something that you would want to do. I finaly got fed up with everything else and wanted relief. I got it!

                I have tried acupuncture and found it did help, but it took a few weeks. Sadly I really could not afford to continue treatment, but my sleep was much improved for quite a while. I will go back for more acupuncture, when I've cleared the pile of bills! I also think that the practitioner is important, some are better than others.
