Female patient aprx 50 yrs old; has an autoimmune based oral mucosa condition. Mucosa will get very inflammed and flake off layers. She has become very sensitive to sugar, salt and spicy foods. Recently went on steroids, and it only helps for two weeks. Currently, she is flaring again. BMs are formed daily with 1-2 bouts of constipation/dry stool per month; her mouth is always dry. She has a history of very heavy menstrual bleeding and clots for 3-4 years at 40yrs old and had an ablation to stop menses, but became anemic in the process. Currently, her blood levels are in the normal range. She has vericosities along ST/GB channel on the thighs. Pulses: L: speed bump with a thin wiry gaun. R1 is tight; R2 is thin wiry; R3 is deep thin wiry. I already tried GCXXT with no results.

I’m a bit confused: do you mean harmonize the thin wiry first? Then, move to TXS once the thin wiry is gone? Or is the GCGJY acting to harmonize within the TXS?

There were no pulse changes with GCXXT after two weeks. Maybe try SNS?

Harmonizing generally means the use of HQin, so I’d start with a CHT until the wiry reduces. It doesn’t sound like a XXT, as L 2&3 aren’t level and there’s no length.
