Default OT Still in the Stone Age rant

HB, I know you were replying to Stormin about Lyrica, but that info is
good to know. The generic version of Vicodyn is what I am taking-- back
problems/sciatic nerve. I got a series of injections , three times two
weeks apart in July. Exactly midway between the second and third, I woke
up that morning and felt better than I had felt in months. A few weeks
ago the pain started coming back, though so far not anywhere near as bad
as it was before. Serveral friends had recommended acupuncture, so I had
a treatment each of the last two Mondays. Supposed to get one more this
Tuesday, but I dunno now-- it seems to have made me worse instead of
better. I thought of asking about it in here, but never did, and was
unable to find any other NG's where it might be on topic. You or anybody
have any experience/opinions on acupuncture? Any advice will be greatly
appreciated. Larry
