I seem to recall someone on the Forum using acupuncture for post op headaches, but I can't recall if it was successful or not.

You might want to search on "acupuncture" and see if you can find some posts.

Also, for headaches in general, you might want to read posts by Captain Deb - she tried lots of things for her headaches and her posts are quite helpful.

Best,

Use the 'search' feature (located at the upper left-hand side of your screen between the 'help' and 'moderate' banner) and type in 'acupuncture' to review past threads on the subject.  A cursory look indicated that for most AN patients, acupuncture gives only temporary relief and generally doesn't alleviate headaches - but is usually consider worth trying.
