Your diagnosis (for advanced readers)

[Guest guest]

Hi, I am specialized in 'knotty' diseases, I studied with TCM doctors

who helped other doctors.

-----------------------

Some food for thought:

Blood stasis might cause hot palms/hotflushes/sweats.

Blood stasis might cause cold hands.

 

In online forums I tend to see people easily 'diagnose'

deficiency patterns and never take into account that

after long standing disease there is always blood/energy stasis.

 

I see the cause for this in a lack of teaching books and missing

essential translations.

 

Yin/qi tonifying herbs might cause stagnation, might cure 20% of the

disease

but aggravate 35% of the disease.

I took lessons in a clinic with patients where you could see

from the tongue which single sided therapeutics were used.

Half coated and half no coating.

 

from

Yi lin gai cuo (corrections of errors among medicals):

(direct translation to maintain the character)

If after using tonifying qi, astringing the exterior, nourishing the

yin,

lowering the fire, taking the medicine shows no effect, but adversely

aggravates the condition, misses the knowledge that blood stasis

also leads the patient to spontaneous sweats, night sweats; use

XueFuSuiYuTang.

 

So if I hear: I have taken all kinds of medicine, several doctors,

I think of a)blood clots (caused by qi/blood/yin/yang def.)b)slime

stagnation( caused

by qi/yin/yang/blood def.). Taking tonifying drugs will aggravate the

stagnation.
