Quit smoke

tutor

Hi Zhen,
How are you doing recently?

What about the man? Is he a strong man? How long has he smoked? How many cigrettes does he take a day?

What about other aspects of him?

D.K.

David,

He is 55 years old, smoked for 30 years, 1 pack a day. He cough a lot in night time, hypertension, irregularly heart beat, sleep so so, string-taut pulse, thick and yellow coating, pink tongue (maybe he is white man, the color of tongue is very light) , 4~5 beats per breath, very skinny but with muscle . His hypertension scare me, because when he lied down on the clinic table, the table move with his heat beat, and I can see his pulse jumping on his arm.
Any good idea?
Thanks a lot

Hi Zhen,
It seems like a difficult case.
I have to say the man must stop smoking as soon as possible.

It's not really in concerns with the treatment, it's his will.

You could do ear points to deal with his smoking, but I also suggest such points as ST 36 and 40, LU 5 and 7, SP 6 and 9, PC 6, KI 3, and BL 23.
Try!

David,

Thanks for your prescription. Do you mind I add Taichong and Hegu to regulate the Qi for hypertention?

Take care

tutor
