It seems that the incidence of malignant tumours is on the rise. While there are many Western medical treatments available, many patients cannot tolerate the side effects of chemotherapy drugs, leading to poor prognoses.
After studying Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), I understand that TCM can significantly help with cancer treatment.
Recently, at my professor's clinic, a British male patient with T-cell lymphoma (non-Hodgkin's) joyfully shared with us that he had successfully cured his lymphoma within five and a half months through a combination of Chinese and Western medicine. The swollen lymph nodes had wholly disappeared, the cancer cells were entirely eradicated, and his blood test results showed everything was normal.
During this period, I witnessed the treatment process of this case. The patient underwent six courses of chemotherapy while taking daily herbal decoctions prescribed by my professor and also received acupuncture treatments twice a month at the clinic.
The common side effects of chemotherapy were almost entirely absent, and his white blood cell count remained within the normal range. Additionally, the patient maintained a routine of moderate daily exercise, meditation, and a relaxed state of mind.
In this world, many things are complementary. In cancer treatment, TCM and Western medicine are also complementary. By combining both strengths, we can effectively enhance the patient's immunity, suppress tumour cells, and counteract the side effects of chemotherapy.
The patient's herbal formula was based on Xiaoluo Wan (Phlegm-Dissolving Pill) and Erzhi Wan (Double Supreme Pill), with modifications. Because each person's constitution is different, the herbal formula is tailored to the individual and adjusted accordingly.
However, the essential components of the formula included:
- Zhebeimu (Bulbus Fritillariae Thunbergii), Xuanshen (Radix Scrophulariae), and Muli (Oyster Shell): To soften hard masses and dissipate nodules.
- Huangqi (Milkvetch), Nuvzhenzi (Privet Fruit) and Hanliancao (Eclipta): To boost white blood cell count and alleviate chemotherapy side effects.
- Banzhilian (Barbat Skullcap) and Baihuasheshecao (Oldenlandia): To resolve phlegm and dampness.
- Ezhu (Zedoary Rhizomes): To activate blood circulation and remove stasis. (Note: Ezhu is contraindicated for those taking anticoagulant medications)
I'm so grateful to my professor for allowing me to witness the miraculous effects of Chinese Medicine.
