"Dad, watch out for the steps."

"Brother, Dad's disease, can Chinese medicine do it?"

"I don't know, I can only try, I heard Uncle Wang say that Dr. Lu can even cure cancer, and if you have Alzheimer's disease, there should be hope."

"That's right, but I always feel a little outrageous, we have lived in Jianghan for so many years, but I have never heard of a powerful Chinese medicine practitioner, this one suddenly appeared, and he is only in his twenties, no matter how he hears it, he feels a little unreliable."

"Whatever, look at it and say it, if it doesn't work, you will lose a few thousand yuan, and if you cheat, you will cheat, as long as there is a little hope, we have to try, Dad has been lost three times, this is all luck to be seen by well-wishers to make a call, what if you don't have this luck next time?"

"Yes, eh, I can see him healing people, look."

Outside Lu's Medical Center, the father and son were queuing.

The old man standing between the two brothers was obviously not young, his hair was sparse and white, his body was thin, his eyes were sometimes clear but chaotic, and his eyes were always looking at one place, but if you looked closely, you would find that his eyes were not focused at all.

The uncle also had a sign on his chest with his name, home address, and phone number.

The two brothers were standing outside the medical hall at this moment, looking at Lu Jiu with the same curiosity as everyone else.

"How long have I been taking blood pressure medication?"

"It's been two years."

"Recently, do you feel a little insomnia in addition to vertigo, and a little uncomfortable in your chest before going to bed at night?"

"Yes, yes, yes."

"Do you have tinnitus?"

"Yes."

"Lately, do you always like to lose things and forget something?"

"Doctor Lu, can you see this too?"

"Hehehe, don't be so strange, judging from your current physical condition, it should be yin and yang imbalance, blood stasis and endogenous, coupled with hyperactive liver yang and kidney yin insufficiency, resulting in heart and kidney incompatibility, so there will be a series of physical discomfort, high blood pressure is just an external manifestation of physical symptoms, although blood pressure medication is to lower blood pressure, but the fundamental problem has not been solved, so in the past two years, your situation has not only not improved, but worse."

"What should I do then, Doctor Lu?"

"Don't panic, I didn't say it can't be cured, it's just that it's more complicated, and it will take a long time, I hope you can be mentally prepared."

"If you can cure it, you can cure it."

"Okay, you go and sit down, I'll give you a few stitches first."

Recently, more and more patients with diabetes and hypertension have come to the clinic for treatment.

These two diseases are not difficult to treat for Lu Jiu now, basically a dose of White Tiger Ginseng Soup can solve the symptoms of the vast majority of diabetic patients, and it is a radical cure.

Of course, in the process, it is necessary to distinguish the syndrome and treat according to the patient's condition, and the prescription is the same, but the addition and subtraction of the dosage and medicinal materials are varied.

However, in general, it is still based on white tiger ginseng soup.

But there are exceptions.

For example, some patients who take hypoglycemic drugs all year round have been taking them for one or two decades, and Lu Jiu is advised not to use traditional Chinese medicine if there is no obvious discomfort in the body.

Once drug resistance develops, it is too difficult and risky to completely adjust to a healthy state.

It's not that Lu Jiu is unwilling, but the patient's entire body is already riddled with holes, and the safest way can only be to fill the holes.

Traditional Chinese medicine is not a miracle medicine, and when a patient's function is replaced by drugs for one or two decades, the effect of traditional Chinese medicine is naturally limited.

In the same way, if a patient with high blood pressure has taken blood pressure medication for one or two decades, then it will be very troublesome to treat, if the patient does not have a particularly big problem, Lu Jiu will also persuade not to try traditional Chinese medicine, but if the patient has already had symptoms that affect his life, then even if it is troublesome, he has to try it.

A few years ago, the Huaxia Cardiovascular Disease Center, together with many cardiovascular disease branches and other institutions, jointly formulated the "Clinical Practice Guidelines for Hypertension in China", which directly lowered the diagnostic criteria for hypertension in adults from ≥140/90mmHg to ≥130/80mmHg.

As soon as this standard came out, many people began to panic.

Because if this indicator is determined, then the original number of hypertension patients with more than 2.2 billion will double overnight to more than 500 million, which is equivalent to one-third of the entire population of China becoming hypertension patients.

In fact, this standard was first issued by the Eagle Emperor Heart Association, and after a few years, it was carried over by some experts in China and formulated this standard in a hurry.

Although many hospitals do not use this new standard to define patients with hypertension in clinical practice, such news still makes many people doubt that they are sick all day long.

When Lu Jiu saw these news, he often laughed, there are always some people who try to use data to control people's health, completely ignoring the body's own ability to regulate and control, and never delve into why high blood pressure occurs, anyway, if the value is not right, you will be sick.

How do you say that, you are sick, very sick, I have medicine, medicine is very expensive!

Hehe.

The health of co-authors is not determined by their own feelings, but by machines and data.

The point is that there are a whole bunch of people who believe in these things.

The process of acupuncture is not complicated, and Lu Jiu basically adopts the treatment method of flattening the liver and latent yang and harmonizing qi and blood.

As long as the patient's liver yang is adjusted, the liver's laxative function is restored to normal, and then the qi and blood are smoothed, then the load of the heart will be reduced, and the blood pressure will naturally go down.

More than ten minutes later, Lu Jiu drew the needle.

Then he grabbed three pills and gave them to the patient, and after a few words, he began to call the next patient forward.

Minutes and seconds passed.

There was only one patient left in front of the father and son in the queue.

During this period, they also really saw Lu Jiu's power, especially the one-handed pulse kung fu, the patient didn't say anything, he just took a hand, he could clearly point out where the patient was wrong, almost never made a mistake, which really surprised the two brothers, and naturally added three points of trust to Lu Jiu's medical skills.

……

"Next."

It's time to arrive!

When the two brothers heard this, they immediately stepped forward.

Lu Jiu looked at the three of them, and looked the old man up and down with his eyes.

Eyes glazed and unfocused, this is ......

"What's the situation with this uncle?" Lu Jiu asked.

Brother Kang Peng said, "Doctor Lu, my dad has Alzheimer's disease, do you think there is a way?" ”

Alzheimer's disease?

Dementia was first seen in the Ming Dynasty.

From Zhang Jingyue's "Jingyue Quanshu Miscellaneous Evidence".

How to say this disease, it is not a single symptom, but the pathogenesis should be in the kidneys.

Among the cases recorded by many doctors in history, there are very few cases of this disease, whether it is in the war period or in the peaceful and prosperous times, there is no record of a large number of dementia diseases in the long-lived elderly.

Lu Jiudao, "I'll take the pulse first." ”

Kang Peng said, "Uh-huh. ”

As he spoke, Kang Peng picked up his father's arm and put it in front of Lu Jiu.

Lu Jiu grabbed the uncle's wrist and began to diagnose......

"Heart fire, still can't wake up the kidney water? It hadn't spoken for a long, long time, and it couldn't go on like this. Spleen asked.

"It's very difficult, its small sperm bank has been completely emptied, and those medicines have hurt it too badly, and it can't recover at all." Heartfire Road.

"It's not just it, I'm the same, since he started taking those pills, my condition has been getting worse and worse, and so is kidney water, after those pills came in, they caught me and attacked him together, but these pills seem to be looking for kidney water, and my pressure is much less." Liver Wood Road.

"You mean nifedipine extended-release tablets? I also felt the medicine, it seemed to be replacing the effect of kidney water, and at the same time stealing the small sperm bank of kidney water. "Heartfire said.

"That's right, even my excretion function has been reduced a lot, and it's a little hard to drain out in the first place, and it comes in every day, and it's annoying." Liver Wood Road.

"I remember that the kidney water said that the thing had accumulated a lot of stones in it, didn't it be operated on to drain some of it?" Golden Duct of the Lung.

"It's not thorough, the operation just broke the stone, and the drain is not for me to drain with the kidney water, the key is that our function has declined, and it can't be drained cleanly, and the medicine still comes in every day, preventing the kidney water from playing its own role, how can it be drained clean." Liver Wood Road.

"But we can't stop it from coming in." Spleen tract.

"So, just do your own thing, if you can't save the kidney water, you can't save it, don't live if it's a big deal." Heartfire Road.

"You're here again......" Spleen said.

Medicine?

Lu Jiu remembered that nifedipine sustained-release tablets should be blood pressure medication.

Judging from the pulse, this uncle does have symptoms of high blood pressure, and taking blood pressure medication is indeed in line with the hospital's treatment method.

And judging from the dialogue of the five organs, the uncle still had kidney stones before, and although he had lithotripsy surgery, it didn't seem to be completely discharged.

In addition, Lu Jiu also felt that the uncle's kidney function was extremely weak, and the other five organs were also damaged.

"The Yellow Emperor's Neijing" has a cloud: "People are born, first become fine, and the essence is born and the brain is born."

Among the five organs, the kidney hides the essence, which is the innate foundation, and the kidney essence gives birth to the brain and marrow.

If the kidney injury is too severe, it will lead to a lack of kidney essence, an empty sea of marrow, and it will not be able to honor the brain, and the operation of the divine machine will not be good, so it is not surprising that dementia will be caused.

Of course, the cause of dementia is far more than kidney damage, the spleen is the foundation of the day after tomorrow, the source of qi and blood biochemistry, the spleen is not healthy, the subtle power of the water valley is attenuated, the water is not wet, and the clear yang does not rise, on the one hand, it cannot nourish the innate foundation, on the other hand, the phlegm and turbidity and water dampness obscure the clear body.

The liver is drained, the whole body qi is unblocked, and it plays a regulating role in emotional activities, and the liver is lost and discharged, the emotional will is not successful, and the liver is inflammatory, then the qi is out of balance, and the qi is stagnant and blood stasis, resulting in insufficient liver blood, unable to go to the head and face, and unable to nourish the cerebral marrow.

The heart is the main bloodline, the heart can promote the blood to run, and the heart is the "master of the five internal organs", all mental activities are inseparable from the master of the heart, and all the gods of thinking activities are attached to the blood, so the heart and blood are insufficient, and the heart is not nourished, then there will be mental trance, upset insomnia and other abnormal mental activities, and if the heart qi is insufficient, the blood flow will not be smooth, resulting in blood vessel stasis, up to the brain stagnation, and the brain network will lose glory.

If the lungs are deficient, the lungs are dysfunctional, and the fluid metabolism is disordered, then the water and dampness are stagnant, the qi and blood are disordered, and they cannot be connected to the brain, resulting in brain dystrophy.

Although this disease is more common in the elderly, under normal circumstances, even if the elderly have deterioration of various functions, they will only have less cerebral medulla, and it is unlikely that the sea of marrow will be empty.

"Let me ask you, how many years has this uncle taken blood pressure medicine?" Lu Jiu suddenly asked.

Blood pressure medications?

Awesome, I actually knew that my dad had taken blood pressure medicine as soon as I took a pulse.

Kang Peng immediately replied, "I have eaten it for thirty-two years." ”

Thirty-two years?
