Guest guest Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 Thanks for your thoughts. Okay, he said the little red dots on my skin, specifically chest and stomach, reveals I have " too much estrogen " . As for the low circulation, the lack of moons on my fingers showed that. I am concerned about THAT, I want my luna back!!! : ) Yes, I want to try someone else. He is an " enterprise " , an in and out kind of business and his herbs cost so much. I think your suggestion to see someone else was accurate.

Excess astrogen is NOT a TCM diagnosis. Neither is " low circulation " . Blood Stasis is, and Blood Stasis can manifest in many different ways. ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those little red dots on the skin frequently mean Heat in the Blood. I am very, very leery of anyone who tries to connect TCM symptoms to allopathic terminology. This is not to say that certain lab findings will not *tend* to correlate with certain TCM imbalances. But the correlates usually are made from allopathic lab findings to certain TCM imbances, not the other way around as he has done. There are a variety of things which can cause Heat in the Blood. > As for the low circulation, the lack of moons on my fingers showed that. I > am concerned about THAT, I want my luna back!!! : ) There are a number of TCM imbalances that can cause this, not just Blood Stasis. Also, poor circulation and Blood Stasis are not necessarily the same thing. One needs a proper TCM DIAGNOSIS before prescribing TCM herbs.
