Can I follow the treatment given in adv book under kidney regeneration preceded by psychotherapy for all the chakras? Or is there any other protocol to be followed?

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2004 Report Share Posted August 5, 2004 The formula Chai Ling Tang has been used successfully for glomerulonephritis and renal failure, and seems to reduce proteinuria, according to Jap. studies (formula is called Saireito in Jap.). Look on medline for studies, or google saireito. Benjamin Hawes, MAOM, Lic. Ac., CORTEZ FAMILY ACUPUNCTURE 1430 E.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2004 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 Hi Z'ev Could you expand on your concern about the " interactions with steroidal drugs " . Are you refering specifically to Chai Ling Tang? Are there particular herbs that are contraindicated for concomittant use with steroids? I am asking not so much with regards to herbal treatment for glomerulonephritis but I am interested to know about any cautions when treating patients who are taking steroids for whatever reason. BTW, I couldn't find any info on the composition of Chai Ling Tang - does anyone have this? Thanks.

The tx worked but both the patient and I would've been screwed if it hadn't. I basically treated the root and branch simultaneously as it was a very complicated case. It was a weird combination of Yi Guan Jian and Bei Xie Fen Qing Yin with lots of additions and subtractions. If another case came my way it'd probably be a different story, so don't take this post as anything other than an anecdote. robert hayden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
