The lovely and crackshot Dr. Kim (late of Bali, Bangkok, Abu Ghraib, and Guantanamo), house MD from the Ming Qi Natural Healthcare Center on Madison Avenue came by today.  She stuck me full of pins and wired me up to electrodes.  20 mins on my belly with pins in my back and legs, 20 mins on my back with pins in my face, jaw, ear, hands, and legs...throbbing to the death metal beat of the electricity.  That and doctor-chatter..."and then I missed and stuck the needle right through his..."  Yikes!









Amazingly painless, yet a strange experience...I believe I experienced Einsteinian Relativity as time slowed to infinity whilst waiting for the 20 minutes to end, finger tendons jerking in time to the beat.  I actually could feel secondary effects when the needles hit home...like ice water traveling down a vein from the point of needle entry.

I didn't expect much from one treatment, but I believe some of the numbness has left my jaw.  Cool.  This treatment isn't to cure anything (after all a stroke isn't a headache), but hopefully help accelerate the healing process.
