Insomnia and Body Pain Case

[Christoph Ludwig Beer]

Just briefly since I’m about to fall asleep, since you tried to treat the swelling from a MH angle, you could now try from a HQ angle, as in FJFLT.

Aaron Alan Chesterton, Hamish Brown, Peter Slipper, or anyone with an idea that helps me move on with this patient: do you have an idea regarding this case? What is most pronounced: falling asleep takes hours, wheezing of the lungs (dry sound of a heavy smoker), and a clenching feeling in the heart when exercising. What formula comes to mind with such superficial wiry pulses (see above post) which don’t drop on harmonising formulas? Harmonize even longer? Treat it as deficiency taxation, regarding the slight hollow quality? Or even go DHZCW? He is making really good progress, but I feel it could be better and other layers should be addressed, too, before he decides to quit his treatment. Thanks so much, collective brain!

I did put him back on CHGZGJT after his response to the YBJZT. I think I mentioned it to you before, but he tends to get relief that lasts 5-7 days and then the effects seem to wear off, which is just one more reason that I went back to a shaoyang formula yet again. This relief appears to mostly be coming from the acupuncture and bodywork that I do. He’s definitely not nauseous enough that I’d list it as a major deciding factor in choosing a formula; he only felt very very minor upset St about an hour after taking the YBJT + FZ, and other than that has yet to complain of any digestive stuff. Considering formulas related to YBJZT, would WTT be appropriate at all here?

[Clint Cain]

I felt like we were getting the most done, although it hit a plateau, with TXS. However, that formula isn’t really in the pulses anymore, and the big hollow R1 is throwing me off.

It sounds like that effect is due to the acupuncture. Maybe try a WTJNT+HQi, FL

[Clint Cain]

I’d try SQW + TXS. There are probably smarter options, but that one makes sense to me.

GZJNT with WT instead of FZ, and yes I hold the licence for that name, you will shortly receive an invoice for using it 😛

WT will give you more direct warming of the bones than FZ, but it seems a bit less rooting of floating yang, so if you want to focus it primarily on warming the joints you can just do a straight swap of FZ for WT, but if you want rooting of yang to be a prominent part of the treatment too you can always use them both, in my new patented formula Wu Fu Jiu Ni Tang
