I was experiencing extreme morning sickness and my obstetrician suggested acupuncture. I have to be honest and say I was somewhat sceptical, plus I have a rather healthy dislike of needles; but feeling so desperately ill I was willing to try anything. Even after the very first treatment I felt better. More important than even the gradual improvement in the nausea was the feeling that I was back in control.
