Minquan County, Henan Province, 43-year-old Yue, an old farmer. On March 2, 2012, he was rushed to the hospital by his family because of sudden physical discomfort and was unable to move the left side of his body for a long time. This hard-working farmer was already suffering from high blood pressure, coronary heart disease and cerebral infarction.
When Mr. Yue was wheeled into the ward, his blood pressure was as high as 150 90mmHg, and his face looked extremely tired and emotional. He was on the fat side, but his whole body looked weak. After a preliminary examination, it was found that his gag reflex was weakened, the muscle strength of his left arm was significantly reduced, his muscle tone was increased, and various nerve reflex tests were positiveThe tongue is dark in color, covered with a yellowish-brown tongue coating, and the pulse beats fast and strongly.
According to the diagnosis of Chinese medicine, Mr. Yue's condition belongs to the ischemic stroke - middle meridian type. Modern medicine diagnosed him with acute cerebral infarction. In the view of traditional Chinese medicine, this condition is due to the blockage caused by the entry of wind and phlegm into the blood vessels, as well as the obstruction of blood stasis in the blood vessels, forming this pathological change. We decided to adopt the best method of traditional Chinese medicine to promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis, remove phlegm, and restore nerve pathways.
We have prepared a Chinese medicine prescription for Mr. Yue, which combines the ingredients of Huaphlegm Tongluo Tang and Xuefu Zhuyu Tang, and made appropriate adjustments. Prescriptions include Ginger Banxia, Citrus Peel, Poria Cocos, Peach Kernel, Safflower, Angelica, Chuanxiong, Rehmannia Root, Red Paeonia Root, Bupleurum Root, Citrus Aurantium Root, Platycodon, Sichuan Hyssop, Glycyrrhiza Root, and Salvia Miltiorrhizae.
After taking this formula 8 times in a row, Mr. Yue felt that his symptoms were relieved. Considering that he is overweight and may have excessive phlegm and dampness in his body, dark tongue, purple-black stasis under the tongue and other blood congestion symptoms, we added turmeric, raw hawthorn, knotweed and black snake to the original recipe to enhance the effect of blood circulation and blood stasis.
After a month**, Mr. Yue's condition began to improve significantly. In the process of **, we have an in-depth understanding of his daily life Xi habits, and found that long-term bad Xi habits, such as smoking and drinking, damaged his gastrointestinal function, resulting in the nutrients in food cannot be converted into qi and blood, but instead accumulates phlegm and turbidity, blocking the heart and pulse. As he grew older, his body's yin and yang system automatically adjusted, coupled with the previous high blood pressure, which caused liver yin deficiency and excessive liver fire, which caused liver wind to drive phlegm and dampness, obstructed the blood vessels of the brain, and caused various abnormal symptoms.
According to Mr. Yue's specific situation, we not only need to strengthen the spleen and dispel stasis, but also need to enhance the efficacy of Xuefu Zhuyu Soup. In our recipe, Banxia and tangerine peel help to dissolve phlegm and regulate the stomach, Poria cocos helps diuretic and dehumidify, and peach kernel and safflower promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis while nourishing the blood. Chuanxiong can unblock the blood vessels of the whole body, and bellflower helps the effect of the medicine to reach the head. We also use herbs such as Rehmannia and Angelica sinensis to nourish the liver and kidneys, nourish yin and blood, and improve the condition of physical weakness.
After a comprehensive and meticulous study, Mr. Yue's body gradually recovered, and his brain and heart function have been significantly improved.
Over the years, I have often heard some voices, many people have threatened to abolish traditional Chinese medicine, but traditional Chinese medicine is still standing these years, but I also know very well that traditional Chinese medicine also has its own life, but its life has passed the highlight moment, although it has been exhaling like an orchid, but the pulse is much weaker after all.
