Quite recently I know someone that had to self inject themselves in the stomach, they were taken Warfrin in tablet form, its a blood thinner and they had to substitute it for Clexane another blood thinner but because of visit to hospital they had to stop taken the Warfrin tablets. The syringes only hold 100mg of the Clexane (Enoaxparin sodium) and as they needed 120mg they were injecting themselves twice a day, after two weeks of this their stomach was looking quite black and blue. A Chinese friend noted the person in discomfort and asked to see the area that was causing the problem, she disappeared into the kitchen and asked if she could use the eggs they had there! three.
The eggs were hard boiled then Siuching-Tung that's the lady's name peeled the eggs one at a time and rolled the egg over the areas were they had injected themselves, within 24hours there was a noticeable difference to the bruising Chinese people and their medicine's are quite amazing.

We have a Taiwanese dr [ registered ] who uses our granny flat once a week as a consulting room. Talk about racist . he get the fits if you dare call him a Chinaman . But he told me that he sudied 5 years anatomy , and 3 years accupuncture under the mentorship of a old docter in Taiwan , and is still studying . He is amazing with diagnoses etc. and his treatment is very good for ailments like muscular/ sceletal pain etc using accupuncture / massage / and herbal medicines . It is quite a experience talking to him. eg he knows what the problem is , but due to his very bad english & Afrikaans , my wife helps him with her medical dictionary - books and anatomy charts . with much hissing and puffing and waving of arms and jumping up and down / pointing on the charts they manage get the right word for the patients condition & ailment
Well he helped me , After 4 treatments there was no need for me to go for the shoulder operation any longer
bravo
When I studied at UWC, I shared a few classes with the Chinese medicine students. They had some great lecturers. I was fascinated by their whole approach to illness/disease/well-being. Always looking at the bigger picture, balance of body systems and energy, not only the symptoms.
You seem to have one of the REAL alternative medicine practitioners there. You're lucky, pity about the language barrier, because it would be great to listen to his whole philosophy of treatment.
Bertie, After witnessing some astonishing healings , I asked the Thai doctor about his alternative treatment , eg on a man who's eyesight deteriorated rapidly . Giving it a last chance , he visited us. And after 5 visits his eye sight was back to normal
With the words of Aldus Huxley in the back of my mind I listened to him ..HUXLEY said " That a needle stuck in one's foot should improve the functioning of the liver ? It can not be believed because in terms of currntley accepted theory it just makes no sense . Therefor we say it just can not happen . The only trouble with this argument is , as a matter of empirical fact , It happens "
I approached Chen asking him to explain the fundamentals for his treatment:-
" For me disease does not exist , but sick people do exist . And one is sick when the life force energy is not flowing smootly and harmoniously through the body. Therefor sickness , mental or emotional disturbance results .
Take the man with the eye problems - there is nothing wrong with his eyes , it is the energy force that does not run well through the gall bladder meridian "
And he chalanged me to ask the patient what happens after a fatty meal , or after a combination of a glass of red wine consumed with fish or seafood . I was told that he was hospitalised once after eating fish and drank red wine
Method of diagnoses: he takes medical history , inspect complexion , tongue ,sometimes feel on the body and then always do something he calls " feel Wrist pulse" . By lightly touching the side of the wrists he feels or detects something which he tells me relates to twelve meridians and therefor main organs in ones body - he somehow detects an imbalance in the specific area's energy and health - even befor any symptoms occur .
He also stress that we should understand the importance of good clean food
He also tells patients who suffered a stroke or heart disease , thet he can not cure the condition , but can greatly improve their life quality
Years ago when I was under treatment by a homeopath for jaundice , he would use a form of diagnosis / check using energy channels ( forgot the term but bioenergetic feedback comes to mind ) but would use the arms as an indicator and press on various places on the body and check the response from the arm being held under tension , if the condition was bad or not improved the response would be a weak one ,, if improving the response from the arm tension would be stronger ...or if cured full strength from the arm response .. all very similar ideas / theories / ... well it worked for me .. the man did for me what no doc could do ... he had me on full form in mere weeks ... the chinese are indeed wise in medical philosophy , then again ,, all kinds for all types of cures .. we all have a personal responsibility for looking for the best treatment , and true to say as well " one size does not fit all " all medical disciplines should work together and not try to debunk each other or regard themselves as superior to the other ... if someone is in the healthcare profession does not matter which discipine they should care enough about their patients to refer elswhere .. and yes each embrace some of the wisdom of each ...
