new here with lipoedema and adrenal/thyroid issues -UPDATE

[Guest guest]

Updating from my post -

 

I had my first appointment today. I actually went to a community acupuncture

clinic instead of the acupuncture school. It seems that the acupuncture school

had a bit of a problem with running some kind of immigration scam - and now

sadly they are no more.

 

The acupuncturist who owns the community acupuncture clinic is a white woman, so

I hope that is not a bad sign. She has been practicing for 10 years. It is

just a few people at a time.

 

She said I have dampness and spleen problems. After my first acupuncture

treatment today, she said that my spleen pulse increased really well. Not sure

what that means. She is giving me herbs for tea as well. She is still figuring

out that recipe, and I'll receive that in the mail. She said it will be for my

spleen and for my ...burner.... I'm not sure about the burner thing.

 

She said that my legs are a fluid problem, and I think she sees more edema than

fat (but still some fat issue). I am supposed to do weekly acupuncture. She

says I should see a subtle difference in a few sessions. She said my problem

will hopefully be recovered in 3 months.

 

So, what are your thoughts on all this? I guess I really need to tell you about

the herbs. She said she will email me the ingredients after she decides on what

they will be.

 

Thanks
