Anyone experience an increase in symptoms after acupuncture? Had my third treatment today and feel terrible. Anxious, emotional, drained, exhausted, weak, fairly debilitated.

Hi Mommato4 and welcome! I never had acupuncture done but always wanted to so I can't answer your question, wish I could. It is possible that the person you are using is not doing it right? In any case I found this article about a person who felt more anxious after the first session:

Hopefully those who have experience with acupuncture will respond.

Hope you feel better,
Denise

Thank you so much for finding this article. I can't believe it. I coul have written that piece. Since yesterday's session I am super anxious, nauseated, spacey, totally exhausted and emotional. This happened once before after an osteopathic session. It has to be connected with toxins moving around. What a rough time. Like the woman who wrote the article, I felt ok during the session, but did get slightly panicky at one point. Really hoping this lets up soon. Flushing with lots of water.
