Guest guest Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 Hi, Kath, Seems to me burning senation is a symptom, not a pattern. I am sure you have your own protocol in your practice. To me, I do have protocols for each and individual symptom and a list of herbals to tackle the issue in orders. To answer your question, yes, there are protocols for chlamydia. No, just follow the standard protocol unless it does not work then you come up with plan B. Usually we expect some positive feedback/results in the next visit (3 days to a week). If not, further investigiations are necessary. As there are more than one varible influencing the clinical efficacy, we just take a wait-and see attitude. This is very much my style that may be very different from that of North America. SUNG, Yuk-ming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
