Hirudotherapy (leeching) or Blood-letting may have adverse effects

[Guest guest]

Hi All, & Sagiv,

 

Medline has several hits on complications or adverse effects of leeching

/ blood-letting therapy. See http://tinyurl.com/77ngx

 

Sagiv (or others who use leeches and/or blood-letting/cupping), would

you volunteer to review the evidence for adverse effects and post a

summary of your conclusions to the List?

 

 

Best regards,
