I want to teach myself Chinese medicine. How should I start?
First of all, what is science? Was there science in ancient China?

To answer the above questions, we must first understand what science is. Scientific research is about the laws of material structure and movement changes, which should be tested by strict practice. Rutherford first put forward the theory of atomic structure, which has not been recognized by the world. After many experiments, it is proved to be correct, which provides a theoretical basis for the invention of the atomic bomb in the future.

Another example is Alfred Gadereau's proposal that the number of gas molecules is the same at the same temperature, pressure and volume. Of course, this groundless statement is not recognized and can only be called the Afer-Gadereau hypothesis. After constant experiments, some of them are consistent, and the hypothesis becomes a theory. After many experiments, it is proved to be correct, which has become the Avogadlow theorem familiar to high school students today.

The core theory of TCM is the theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements. In other words, no one has proved the correctness of Yin-Yang and Five Elements through experiments. It should be admitted that it is a great achievement for the ancients to put forward such profound whimsy, which deserves the eternal pride of the Chinese people. However, from the perspective of knowledge, the theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements is still in the hypothetical stage, so it is not scientific. It is also necessary for scientists of Yin-Yang and Five Elements not only to sing widely and profoundly, but also to prove the existence of Yin-Yang and Five Elements through arduous and repeated experiments, and even to replace the periodic law of elements with Yin-Yang, golden wood fire, water and earth, and to replace geometry with eight diagrams. At that time, the yin and yang and the five elements naturally occupied the scientific highland.

I not only witnessed the miracle, but also created it. When my mother was 87 years old, she suffered from hypertension, arrhythmia, heart failure and atrial fibrillation (diagnosed by doctors in county traditional Chinese medicine hospital and county people's hospital). After a week in hospital, the condition improved and stabilized. She was discharged from the hospital. Doctor's advice: the patient's condition is gradually stable, and he will take medicine home on time, and his condition will recur within two or three months. She will prepare the money for artificial heart pump surgery in the third-class hospital. As a result, on the night of discharge, her mother felt her heart beating fast and uncomfortable. Her family decided to send her to the hospital again, but she didn't agree. What shall we do? I decided to treat my mother with a self-made prescription of Chinese medicine.

Incision diagnosis: thready pulse, pale tongue without coating, other normal.

Diagnosis: Heart-qi deficiency leads to palpitation.

Treatment principles: nourishing the heart, calming the heart and calming the nerves.

Prescription: Yangxin Decoction.

Efficacy: I feel very comfortable after taking one dose. I will take ten doses in a row, and then take two or three doses a week. Until my mother died at the age of 93, she spent about 200 yuan a month on medicine. She took care of herself for five years and never boasted about being in the hospital.
