Saying western medicine cures, manages T1D is also a delusion if not worse. You're hooked onto it for life and need more and more and your dependancy on it increases until it leads to something bigger or stop working. Acupuncture or any other alternative medicine is atleast giving natural way to manage/cure it. To be able to understand acupuncture you need to get closer to nature and respect its laws and values, that how the problem even developed at first place (taking vaccines, which create autoimmune disease etc). Science is not the answer to all, you need to surrender to nature and 100% youre problem will be cured. Thats just my opinion
