Guest guest Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Hi everybody, I am new at this discussion group and this is my first post. I am a Classical Homeopath who is starting now doing some acupuncture and auriculo-acupuncture too. I have a case which I would like to try using both systems Homeopathy and acupuncture. It is a 32 years old lady who has Thrombocytopenia with her platelet count oscillating from 25,000 to 75,000. Everything else seems to be right at least she doesn’t feel any other problem like emotional mental or physical excluding of course the skin discoloration with several blackish spots appearing in her legs and/or arms. What points do you suggest me to be treated in body acupuncture? Do you thing Auriculotherapy could also help? If so what points can I use? Thank you very much for any help.

The skin discoloration with several blackish spots appearing in her legs and/or arms are also related to Water Kidney which oresents itself as black or dark. The involvement of skin leads to the thought that Water is backing up into Metal. As she is 32 years old, the problem cannot be from an age related Deficiency, and is therefore from an active cause. A she is a woman, the cause would center around the lower burner. As she does no feel any other problem like emotional mental effects the cause is more or les physical. To summate, this seems to be a Water illness which has led to a K deficiency of an emergent nature, caused by something physical rather than emotional, which has to an extent backed up into the previous system, Metal. An old adage. " Where the ysmtoms are showing up is not the root of illness. " So one is led to the thought that this is a metal weaknes to begin with, which has not nurtured Water, giving rise to the symptoms of a physical deficiency. Please exclude Metal. The best way to do this by checking out the tongue, there should be fissures in the anterior 2/5th sector [divide tongue into 5 horizontal back to front sectors]. Or there will be a small pit, hollow, maybe filled with some material, or dry. Second best way will be to check history, there may be chidhood asthma, allergies on skin and resp tract, constipation, bleeding from nose. If you do indeed find a LU Metal problem, treat this way: Tone LU with an Earth point, and reduce Wood, with a Fire point. If you need help to understand that, please email and will do so.

Guest guest Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 Thrombocytopenia can be life-threatening if the platelet count is too high. Risk of stroke etc. My mother has thrombocytopenia and burst blood vessels in one eye during an air flight and this has permanently damaged her eyesight. I dont' know if your patient is also taking meds, but this is one case where I would use Chinese medicine and/or homeopathy in conjunction with Western.
