Real pain can alone cure us of imaginary ills. We feel a thousand miseries till we are lucky enough to feel misery.

Alone, alone, all, all alone,
Alone on a wide wide sea!
And never a saint took pity on
My soul in agony.

He prayeth best, who loveth best / All things both great and small; / For the dear God who loveth us,/ He made and loveth all.

Love is like an injection, it induces cure through pain

There's not a cure available, so patients are often left somewhat frustrated by continuing pain and fatigue. Acupuncture is one of the few things shown to be effective for these symptoms. It may be particularly attractive to patients who are unable to take medications because of intolerable side effects.
