Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: Strongly considering acupuncture!

Thanks for your message Cassandra!

I DID have some very good results from acupuncture treatments for IBS back in the spring and summer of 2008. My IBS was almost inactive until AFTER I had to drink TWO oral contrasts for a CT scan in July of 2013. Then it all seemed to have COME BACK, unfortunately.

My oncologist who treated my Hodgkin's Lymphoma is Chinese and so is the acupuncturist he referred me too. I will see him soon! Supposedly he is VERY good and treats many of the Green Bay Packers for pain issues after they are injured on the football field.

Thanks a lot too for your private email. I will be emailing you soon.

I have been absolutely DYING to take a cruise or at least a nice trip for quite some time now!!! I am SO glad that at least you were able to go on one!

Have a great day and thanks again!!

Originally diagnosed with IBS-C in Spring, 2008. During spring to fall of 2008, had at least 10 acupuncture treatments and Chinese herbs. IBS went into remission. IBS returned in late July 2013 after taking 2 oral contrasts for a CT scan for cancer follow up. Had more acupuncture with different practitioner in summer 2014, but received little benefit.
