HIV: Know your status

Today, June 27, is National HIV Testing Day. When this annual observance started in 1985, there were fewer resources to treat a positive HIV diagnosis. We have made great progress in testing, early intervention and treatment of HIV. In fact, approximately half of those with HIV achieved viral suppression through lifesaving medications. Despite these advances, the CDC estimates that 14 percent of those who are infected, many of them young people, are living with the virus and do not know it and are unintentionally spreading infection. Rapid testing with oral swabs is simple and easy. Testing can reduce those numbers and get everyone who needs it into care, regardless of their ability to pay.

Does acupuncture really help pain?

Most people when they think of acupuncture think of it as relieving pain or for its ability to control addictions. When I first graduated from acupuncture school, there weren't many studies done on the effectiveness of acupuncture for pain, addictions or the myriad other things that acupuncture is effective for - at least not in this country! There were many studies done in China, Japan, Germany, France, England and other countries, but we would not accept those studies because they weren't classified as "high enough quality." So we had to wait until there was enough interest here to substantiate the cost to run studies in the U.S. Now, three decades later, we have lots of high quality studies.
