One of the patients who has been most impressed recently is that Mr. Pan, a 56-year-old patient with nephrotic syndrome, does not want to do kidney puncture, or even rejects renal puncture, and refuses to use any diuretics, hormones, immunosuppressants and other conventional means of Western medicine.
Trust in TCM
Mr. Pan is an old professor, the quality of education is very high, especially believe in traditional Chinese medicine, said that he had dislocated his arm when he studied abroad, a bunch of foreign examinations were done, the money was not less spent and the crime was not less, and the result was not cured. Later, I returned to China and went to a Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, less than 2 minutes, only spent a registered money, and the doctor picked it up.
Mr. Pan said that since then, he has become acquainted with Traditional Chinese medicine. When Director Mo was found for treatment, the wheelchair was pushed into the consultation room, severe edema around the body, thoracoabitoneal effusion, 24h proteinuria quantitative 6.83g, hypoproteinemia (plasma albumin 16.9g /l), renal function and normal blood pressure. The Western Hospital recommends inpatient kidney puncture and hormone therapy, but the elderly refuse to come to our hospital for the purpose of seeking traditional Chinese medicine treatment.
Director Mo was dialectically qi deficiency blood stasis water stop, in accordance with the treatment of nephrotic syndrome "first in the west, can not be in the west" principle, the patient's general condition is acceptable, give ginseng angelica peony powder flavor, with astragalus carp soup three times a week to activate the blood to carry out qi and water.
After 2 weeks of follow-up consultation, the patient's edema clearly subsided, and he got rid of the wheelchair and walked into the consultation room by himself. In accordance with the principle of "effectiveness is not more effective", Director Mo adjusted the original strategy.
After 2 months, the patient's edema all subsided, the pleural and abdominal effusions disappeared, so the carp soup was stopped, and the soup was easy to add or subtract ginseng dihuang soup; after half a year, the patient's 24h proteinuria ratio dropped to 0.6 grams, and the plasma albumin rose to normal.
Since then, it has been added or subtracted on the basis of this side, and after one year, the patient's urine protein turns negative, and the energy and physical strength improve significantly, and can travel with his wife and children to other places. So far, there has been no recurrence of the disease, and the urine protein has been negative.
The patient was not hospitalized, only in the outpatient clinic, the pure Chinese medicine therapy was applied, and the patient was completely relieved, followed up for 5 years, and his condition was stable and did not recur.
TCM dietary prescriptions are compatible
There is such a chinese medicine, which Li Shizhen called "the long of tonic" - it is astragalus. Astragalus is the root of the legume Mongolian astragalus, which is sweet in taste and slightly warm in nature; it belongs to the spleen and lungs. It has the nature of hair growth, and is beneficial to the effect of replenishing qi, fixing the surface and stopping sweating, and lifting the sun to sink. Modern research has confirmed that astragalus has the effect of strengthening the heart, dilating blood vessels, lowering blood pressure, enhancing immunity, promoting protein synthesis, and reducing proteinuria.
The treatment of edema by carp soup has been recorded in medical books such as "Qianjin Fang" and "Behind the Elbow", and has changed in later generations. In the 1980s, on the basis of the carp soup of "Qianjin", some doctors improved it into astragalus carp soup, and used carp soup for kidney disease dietary therapy. Director Mo used this therapeutic formula to treat renal edema and obtained good results. Cook carp, astragalus, red adzuki beans, sand kernels, ginger, poria and so on, eat fish and drink soup twice a week.
