Thanks for the update on Emma.

I agree with the others, if it is AAI, she shouldn't be running around. I know it makes you happy to see her up and about but she will end up paralyzed or worse.

You still need a definite diagnosis before anything can be done. If I'm understanding you correctly, there is still no diagnosis, just your vet's best guess. No vet will do surgery until then. Acupuncture may help with the pain short term, but it will not do anything to cure the condition if it is AAI.

Good luck with everything.
