Hi Alex it definately was not a dull ache when it went in but there was a burning pain for a long time after, well the whole time it was in. I did have body acupuncture last uear and I found that painful, this time not so much when the pins went in as when they were in there. Then it was like a really ache and frobbing and I know this sounds mad but as well as the ache where the pins were in there was an ache in the tender parts of my stomach. I know that some people don't find acupuncture painful but I really have. However from the research I have done I do believe that there is something to it, though I cannot really afford body acupuncture right now. I think that I am just going to carry on with the ear acupuncture for awhile and see what happens.
I just want to thak you for a quick responce...Thank...Moonie
