Dear Sir / Madam, Someone very kindly gave me a good answer to motor
neurone desease which sounds similar to the trouble a friend has,
presumably conventional medicine has no remedy, I wonder if contacting
a Doctor practising acupuncture would be of any potential good, he had
numbness in the lower leg, and the doctor thought it was nerves, he
hasn't eaten for years except milk and alcohol, wonder what we can do,
Thank you, from Jeremy M Newton. from Southern Ireland.
