Nola, dear ma'am... after reflection, I offer this recommendation with increasing intensity, see ma'am:

Find that acupuncturist within a couple of hours' drive and call to inquire about relief, plea ma'am.

There's no need to suffer if you don't have to, no ma'am.

My pain level was between "emergency room" and "suicide" beforehand, sigh man.

Regular doctors couldn't help, no MD man.

The very first acupunking enabled me to sleep for the first time in a month-plus, zzz man.

The next session or two began knocking it out for real, relief man.

The problem has resolved and not returned, si and no man.

If you're dubious about his/her credentials, PM me the name/address/details, si ma'am.

WCG's sister is a statewide-famous acupunkress in Missouri, she man.

She can research your local one, she man.

She can also comment on whether and how treatments can help mechanical pain, si ma'am.

Do it, plea ma'am.
