Source(s): http://www.medicalacupuncture.org/acu_in... Accupuncture is basically quackery and will not work for complex diseases like diabetes(it has a limited effect on some pains and that is it). Do yourself a big favor and accept the reality that there is not some miracle cure for this aweful disease. No matter how bad you want one. i heal with this acupunture treatment but it was not diabetes it was pain in my body. But u can try it for diabetes No, but if you do treat a blood disorder with quackery, you run the risk of a diabetic coma and death. sorry not me I don't think so... personally, I've never tried acupunture. I would, but not to treat diabetes. I don't have diabetes, but... you know what I mean. So, no, I don't think that it would be successful-- otherwise everyone would be walking around like PinHead. |
