Hello:

Has anyone that has Lyme and/or co-infection related nerve pain (burning, stinging, pricking) sensations in soles of the feet or elsewhere had success with acupunture?

I tried acupunture for about 4 visits 30 months ago, BEFORE, I had a still questionable Lyme dx. The acupuncture did not help, but looking for other's experiences?

I've wondered if I didn't do it long enough or with the wrong practitioner?

Really want to beat this symptom, it has virtually ruined my peace of mind in the last 3 + years.

I've taken Gabapentin, 1800 MG/day, and desperately want to stop or reduce it. I've gained weight from it and want to reverse that, but more importantly, not have burning skin?

Thanks for any stories for or against?
