Summary
The goal of this study is to determine if acupuncture improves multiple symptoms associated with chemotherapy on the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI): nausea, vomiting, fatigue, anxiety, anorexia, pain, disturbed sleep, shortness of breath, dry mouth, depression, and peripheral neuropathy (see statistical section). The investigators hypothesis is that acupuncture will result in lower MDASI scores over the course of chemotherapy for the acupuncture group vs. control group.
