Surgical Complications
She was told that it is due to the scars from the surgery and to have more surgery would porbably only make things worse.
Ten years is a long time.
She came to me from a former patient and was basically at the point of "I have tried everything else, nothing else has helped. Maybe this will."
The first treatment when I was palpating the site of the surgery I felt a scar about as big as my little finger, more or less. Same width and length. I did my regular type of treatment, but I also inserted needles directly into the ends of the scar.
When she came back in two weeks she was totally amazed to report that she had been nearly pain free for a week and a half. Not bad for one treatment...
The second treatment I branched out, quite a bit.
At the end of the treatment I worked on the scar with "invisible needles." At the lower end of her scar she said she could feel something like a thread being pulled out. Even I would have to say that is different.
After she got dressed, as we were talking she said somethin in her abdomen "released." I talked to her last week, we had to reschedule, but she had been nearyl pain free for the last two and a half weeks.
I can't wait to hear what she has to say today....

As always, this was fascinating. Please, please keep me and your other readers informed about this.
Well she is doing pretty good. Had afew days of 'high pain' but more days of little or no pain. Even though the idea of acupuncture freaks her out, she is coming back every two weeks and seems to be getting better.
Maybe I will try electro-actupuncture next time...
I just finished seeing my surgically complicated patient. She has been PAIN FREE FOR THE LAST TWO WEEKS!!!
It always feels good to see a patient improve.
