Acupuncture and cancer

First of all, before we go into what acupuncture does as a weapon in the war against cancer, let's define what acupuncture is.
Acupuncture is a medical procedure in which needles are stuck into the body in various spots and are connected to electricity, sound waves or some other technique and used to battle health problems. Practitioners of acupuncture say that its goal is to keep the "chee" or life force in the body flowing properly through the body. In this case, the health problem which the acupuncture would be battling would be cancer.
The overall opinion of most of the traditional medical health organizations is that acupuncture does not do anything to fight cancer, although it may help to reduce the pain and nausea involved with cancer and the traditional treatments used against cancer.
There are, however, non traditional medical health organizations which claim that acupuncture can not only be effective in battling cancer but that it can cure cancer in cases in which traditional methods have been ineffective. They have people who have had cancer and been treated by acupuncture who claim to have been completely cured.
If you have cancer, you are the person in charge of the battle. You have the right to choose which weapon or weapons you want to use. Others can advise you, and that includes medical health care professionals, but the final decision is yours, nobody else's.
If you decide to make use of acupuncture in this battle, you will want to make a careful study of the places or persons offering this service. You will want to make sure that the treatment is being offered by someone who is considered a professional in the field. Research and know. Don't be afraid to ask questions.
You might want to consider a combination of the traditional and non traditional methods. Talk to your doctor; find out how he or she feels about acupuncture. If you have made up your mind to make use of a combination of traditional and non traditional methods, find yourself a reputable doctor who will aid you in your goal. You might want to make use of the traditional chemotherapy and/or radiation therapies to fight the cancer, along with the non traditional acupuncture therapies to fight the nausea and pain involved.
If you decide to use acupuncture in your battle in any way, choose your weapons wisely. See if you can be given the opportunity to talk with others who have been up against this same enemy and were faced with the necessity of doing battle against it.
Keep an optimistic attitude. You have set out to win this battle and now you must fight in such a way as to do just that.
