Acupuncture

I've been suffering from some tingling in my hands and forearms for the past two weeks. It's the worst when I wake up in the mornings after sleeping with my hand tucked underneath my pillow. I'll often get up in the night to do my bidness, so having your hands feel like they're on the verge of falling asleep is very very annoying - to the point of keeping me up for at least a few hours.

I mentioned this to my midwife yesterday. Apparently, the tingling is from an excess amount of fluid in my forearms putting pressure on my carpal tunnels. She suggested that I go see an acupuncturist.

Holy cow, I'm a believer.

I had one session on my hands and feet. When I left there, I could feel that my left foot had significantly improved. But the real test was when I woke up this morning. No pain! Nada. I'm just hoping that it'll last.
