Then you'd better read Tang Yun's Approaching Chinese Medicine and Liu Lihong's Thinking about Chinese Medicine first. It can help you to establish a preliminary impression of Chinese medicine.

Next, if you have the ability, read ancient books directly. Don't read modern Chinese medicine textbooks. Generally speaking, you won't use it after reading it. In ancient books, don't read Huangdi Neijing and Treatise on Febrile Diseases first. Without any foundation, mind reading will be very confused.

Reading ancient books begins with Huang Yuanyu's Four Sacred Hearts, because his books have the best logic and can be understood at a glance. Then he read his "Changsha Yaojie" and established a preliminary theory of traditional Chinese medicine. Huang Yuanyu's books are not sold separately now. The bookstore is full of the complete works of Huang Yuanyu. Huang Yuanyu is good at the theory of five elements.

Next, I will interpret Zheng Qinan's medical books. This book is actually a bound volume of three medical books by Zheng Qinan, which is explained by Tang Bu. Zheng Qinan is good at the theoretical model of Yin and Yang. After reading this, I can basically solve ordinary diseases by myself.

Next, we should continue to read Huang Yuanyu's Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Synopsis of the Golden Chamber for improvement. These two books can be found in the complete works of Huang Yuanyu.

At this time, you can look at Huangdi Neijing, and you will understand a lot when you look at it. As for Treatise on Febrile Diseases, both of them are annotated in Zheng Qinan's medical books and the complete works of Huang Yuanyu, which looks more convenient. It is definitely not good for beginners to read the original text directly without taking notes.

At this point, your level of Chinese medicine is definitely higher than that of many Chinese medicine practitioners outside. Because that's what I'm studying. It feels good.
