We had our first visit to the acupuncturist today.
He is a radiation oncology professor at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta.
Two needles in each ear , one in each index finger, one on jaw and one under jaw. They were left in for an hour. Pete actually had saliva threads in his mouth after treatment and it stayed moist for a couple of hours.
We have decided to stay with it for a few weeks , he will be getting treatments twice a week for about a month then easing off as we see how he progresses. I will let you know how we do, fingers crossed!!
