Guest guest Posted July 15, 2004 Report Share Posted July 15, 2004 Hi, when treating after the pulse, and by such varying every time, one treatment every month, most patients get about 50% better, and stay at that level if treated every month, or every second month with acupuncture.

Can anyone honestly report to us their % success rate with FMS. I don't want any excuses or caveats about uncompliant patients, just some raw data. For X number of patients, what % are still cured or greatly improved 1 year following the cessation of regular weekly acupuncture treatment. If one needs weekly treatment for maintenance for ever, I consider that palliation, not cure. But if scrupulous diet, exercise and tonic herbs alone maintain remission, I do consider that a cure. But that raises a broader issue. Do others on this list consider a patient cured if they are symptom free if and only if they receive weekly acupuncture and take strong herbs for branch symptoms. If so, I believe that position is essentially one akin to the idea that a vacuity of herbs and acupuncture cause disease, rather than emotions, diet and climate.
