I came from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, and my family has been practicing medicine for generations, and I am already the fifth generation in my generation. I don't know the ancestors before, but my grandfather is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine doctor in ten miles and eight towns, and many outsiders even drive over to see my grandfather.
Grandpa has many diseases, whether it is chronic diseases such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and hand tremors, or lipomas, nodules, polyps, and cysts that require surgery.
I remember that time when I helped my grandfather in the hospital, a patient came, he was introduced by someone, and he came to see diabetes from Linshi (many people feel that there is no diabetes in Chinese medicine, and Chinese medicine is called thirst quenching, in order to facilitate everyone's understanding, it is collectively referred to as diabetes)
After this incident, TCM planted a budding seed in my heart, and I decided that I wanted to be like my grandfather and use my medical skills to treat diseases and save people, so I was later admitted to the University of Chinese Medicine and became a TCM practitioner.
The patient, who was 46 years old at the time, had been suffering from diabetes for more than a year, had severe thirst, and had at least 3 large pots of water a day, and went to the toilet after drinking; I feel tired all the time, I feel tired, I will have bloating after eating a little, and I will often feel constipated; Usually always irritable and loves to lose his temper
The tongue is light, the tip of the tongue is red, there are tooth marks on the side of the tongue, and the breath is severe in the morning; The moss is white and greasy, and the pulse is thin and weak
After seeing the doctor, Grandpa immediately prescribed:
Astragalus, Codonopsis, Bupleurum chinensis, Cimicifuga, Qianghuo, Atractylodes, Skullcap, Coptis chinensis, gypsum, licorice
After taking the medicine for 15 days, the abdominal distension improved significantly after eating, and the complexion slowly recovered. After the follow-up visit, the thirst and dryness were reduced, and the constipation disappeared;
After that, the blood sugar dropped to varying degrees at each follow-up visit. Finally, after stopping the drug, the blood sugar was maintained in the normal range, and all the symptoms disappeared.
I was still surprised why it was so effective, and my grandfather explained to me the treatment idea of this prescription:
Astragalus membranaceus, Codonopsis - nourish the spleen and invigorate qi, restore the vitality of the spleen and stomach
Bupleurum and Cimicifuga - the lifting of the sun, the upward movement of the clear qi in the stomach, and the lifting of the spleen and stomach
Qianghuo, Atractylodes, Skullcap, Coptis chinensis, gypsum - raise the spleen and yang, dissolve dampness and turbidity, discharge moisture, and dissolve yin fire
Licorice – a concoction of medicines
Later, I also used this formula to add and subtract, and treated many patients, but I dare not say that the effective rate of this base formula is 100%, and the overall effective rate is 97%.
From the first day I became a doctor, I regarded my grandfather as my idol and worked hard to improve my medical skills so that I could help more patients.
I have been practicing medicine for more than ten years and have helped countless diabetic patients solve their problems, which I am not boasting about, but I am confident as a family of Chinese medicine.
