2023 - Degenerative Disc Disease. Spine falling apart. Trying acupuncture as opposed to surgery.

Question -
Has anyone tried acupuncture, and did you have good results?

Thank you,

Literature states 20-30’s yrs at onset. I’ve always had low back pain and problems all my life but suddenly have a Sacroilitis but am not being told anything. Just take these pills and it will help. Waiting for VA to approve of me going to the spine clinic at our local physicians group. Just aggravated because I’m layning on my back or standing are my only 2 positions I can stand.

My daughter has been exploring tapping and shared it with me. It’s helping her to relax and sleep as she’s been dealing with anxiety and insomnia as she’s been processing trauma with her therapist.

I did one quick session and must admit that I’m more relaxed. Here’s a video I found that briefly explains the technique -

I'm constantly experiencing numbness and tingling in my left arm, hands and feets. It's affecting my hand grip, and my walking.
The Neurosurgeon told me that it was a possibility that the C-2 to T-2 surgery wouldn't Solve the issue of the numbness and tingling.
How do you get relief from the numbness and tingling?

I am having so many different symptoms now. I would appreciate your input. TIA
