M3: "Treatment Determination Based on Syndrome Differentiation" IS Difficult to Comprehensive.

M3: "Treatment Determination Based on Syndrome Differentiation" IS Difficult to Comprehensive.

How about Chinese Medicine? They have used "treatment based on syndrome differentiation" for thousands of years to treat diseases. They are including acute diseases and chronic diseases.

The problem is, for diabetes, ancient and modern clinical prescriptions, each medicine specialists' prescriptions, secret prescriptions, unilateral prescriptions, and folk prescriptions. There are numerous prescriptions. These diabetes prescriptions in the market, there are many books published, up to thousands of prescriptions. Do "Medical experts" know how to distinguish them and how to use them?

The question is, for diabetes, diabetes in the early stage is often "No Symptom to Differentiate." And diabetes in the middle and the last stages are always messy disorders. They are hardly effective and accurate "treatment based on syndrome differentiation."

Diabetes Mellitus

According to Professor Xu Manyin, page 16 in her book, Diabetes Mellitus, said: "there are more than 50% of diabetic patients with no obvious symptoms." If diabetes is "No Symptoms to Differentiate," how can Chinese Medicine specialists do?

There are more than 50% of diabetic patients with no obvious symptoms.

At this point, let's refresh "the problem".

For West Medicine, they can't still make a clear definition of Chronic Disease, it can be only controlled and are incurable.   

Chronic Disease is incurable and can be controlled by chemical drugs of Western Medicine. This shows that Chronic Disease is incurable by chemical drugs.

For the point of Chinese Medicine, everybody has a different body constitution, and they need to do personal "treatment based on syndrome differentiation."

For Chinese Medicine, will "disease" accurately correspond to "symptoms?" This is obviously not true. So, the advantage of herbs is unable to highlight.

So, the Chronic Disease patient will be wandering between "Western medicine" and "Chinese medicine." Where the disease is?  

Let's keep on studying.
