Guest guest Posted July 30, 2003 Report Share Posted July 30, 2003 Hi: Currently I have a hormonal imbalance due to a hormone (DHEA-S) that is produced in excess in the adrenal glands. First I was attending a doctor who gave acupuncture treatments and was giving me treatment in a lot of points for the adrenal glands, giving me good results (my DHEA-S decreased and therefore the side effects decreased - for example, the excess of facial hair decreased). However, I needed to be attending the doctor every two weeks because as soon as I left the treatment, the DHEA-S began increasing again and the side effects showed up again. I was told by this doctor that this was a condition that could not be healed completely. However, now I'm attending another doctor who studied Traditional , and gave me a chinese diagnostic: Yin deficiency, deficiency in kidneys and spleen and Re. The doctor told me that she needed to find the root of the problem and that the problem in the adrenal glands is being caused by the kidneys and spleen. Having said this, she made me a list of food that I should include in my diet. The same doctor is giving me chiropractic treatments, acupuncture (treating my points such as kidneys, spleen and others) and ear therapy and with this doctor I have received about 4 to 5 treatments so far, so my question is: with all these treatments plus a balanced diet, can my problem be cured at ALL? Have you known of any similar cases that have been successful and needed no more acupuncture on a regular basis? Another things, is shenyinxu the same thing as kidneys' deficiency? Any help would be more than appreciated ! Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
