Guest guest Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 Hello all; I am a new practitioner, pretty awed by the accumulated experience evident here. I saw for the first time yesterday a new patient, a young (23) year old man who has the western diagnosis of asbergers.I would not necessarily have picked this up; he was unusual, but so are we all. He intereacted easily; was a bit challenged when speaking of emotions. He noted that he feels dependent on external stimuli (to want to wake in the morning, for instance, and otherwise) So far, i have not seen a tongue like his : a 'heart' type tongue in length, and with a very red tip; very thin strands of phlegmyness along the sides.What I hadnt seen begfore were the * 2 * distinct cracks at centre. They almost , but not quite , reached to the tip. is there significance to this? He came in both because of back pain, and by the urging of his parents both of whom have benefitted very much from acuouncture, bioth physically and in the sense of 'feeling more clear " . This young man's body type was sort of undeveloped -narrow shoulders, thin. His eyes were large and bright but almost impenetrable.Pulse was deeper than im accustomed to finding on someone his age and gender, and probably cottony. Im am curious if anyone has experience with Asbergers patients, and if there is any consistency in CM terms to what you observe. Id welcome any input or perspective!
