More than likely yes, pain and all the drug related side effects are fairly commonly treated. While I have little doubt that you will improve with acupuncture, the level of results will depend greatly on your individual causes of the pain, your overall level of health, your diet and lifestyle, etc.
I would strongly recommend that you find a practitioner in your area and give them 6-10 treatments and then evaluate how you are doing. Ideally you find someone who does acupuncture along with tuina (chinese medical massage) and does cupping as well.
