Guest guest Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 I have men asking if acupuncture would relieve symptoms that are caused by prostate removal or radiation, such as incontinence or ED. The TCM dx I see are very diverse, often heat, either dry heat or damp heat Has anyone tried treating the surgery induced symptoms? What were the results? If it worked, what did you do? Are the results contingent on how long ago the surgery took place? Thanks for your help.

One of them has already created a prescription drug from fish oil Omega 3s! I have severe distrust in the pharmaceutical industry, especially since it was learned they doctored their research studies and bribed the FDA (which isnt so hard to do-- since drug company insiders are on the FDA board) to get them to pass regulations. Of course, then they face class action lawsuits when consumers start getting sick or dying from these drugs. ________ Hotmail has tools for the New Busy.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 If there is real nerve injury then that is difficult (perhaps impossible?) to treat in my experience. Everything else just do pattern differentiation.
