I took your advice Thanks. Ive enquired about private acupuncture with an ex midwife with 40 years experience. I explained everything in an email and asked for some prices. Hopefully I will find the money if its not too expensive.
Will let you know. Thanks for post as I never thought about it before then

Well that would be good if that midwife doesn't charge too much and she hopefully won't be pushing you to buy chinese supplements!

I have a fibroid that the scan shows as being close to the my cervix, its 46mm, so not huge. Its stopped growing but when it was growing in early 2nd tri, the pain was terrible. At this point it hadn't been identified, and I went to the labor ward just in so much pain... they told me it was UTI, sent me to the docs who thought UTI then asked the labor ward to scan me, which they didn't as they were so sure it was UTI. Man its SO annoying how they brush us off. The fibroid was finally found at my 20 week scan and I could do a told you so (I just knew thats what it was from the pain and research) trouble with my told you so was no one really cared and the only info I have got is from constantly asking... they said they will wait and see about the birth and if I need a c section til the end when she engages or not. Fills me with confidence.

Well Tuesday I was in that much pain it made ne violently sick. Paracetamols didnt touch it. I phoned the Accupunture clinic and booked in privately. £35 every week, this is going to be a struggle but I cannot go on as I am. I have to work for finacial reasons. So losing £35 is better than double that amount.

The lady said she would have to be very careful with my history and strategically placed the needles. It turned out she works privately for my specialist . I told her how I felt he had ignored me and she said to mention this to him. She also told me to ask him to get it me,on emergency appointment on the NHS. Even she didnt think it was fair I should have to pay with my history and age. She couldnt guarantee it would work as she is continually fighting against the fibroid growing. But I believe in alternative medicine and spiritual things.

Today my lower half feels heavy but not throbbing or burning. The nausea seems worse but I would rather have this than the pain. I also have a banging headache ( may not be related although I never have headaches)
I will mention it to her next week however.

Whilst lying on the bed something told me she would be able to get me through this. Hopefully this is right as Im trying to think only positive outcomes.

Well I think the accupuncture certainly sounds promising in terms of pain managment, now if you could only get your other ailments under control.

I've been getting problematic headaches as well this pregnancy. I'm the type of person who gets a headache once every two years and starts freaking out when I get one cause I automatically think worse case scenario.... But for the last few weeks I've experienced more then my fair share of headaches. I did with my last pregnancy too though so I'm not too complained. If you find a solution please let me know....
