I appreciate your answer...I really do.
I am intrigued by Oriental medicine and overall wisdom...I wish I can learn a lot of things coming from the Orient...
However, I must remind you that I had 4th degree burns shortly before that picture was taken...and even doctors in Maricopa Burn Center were predicting skin graffing surgery (which I have avoided FORTUNATELY - either by pure luck or special treatment I was allowed to take - besides conventional medicine...)
I do not have ANY renal problems (or any other for that matter) so I was taken by surprise with your comment...
You had to have a reason to say what you did so even though it is observation awakened faculty that you might have - it is something that physician (I understand - you are a physician?) realized by just looking at the picture - so it has "awaken" my interest...
I am actually a physician. Forgive me I didn t know about your
burns.
If you go to the hospital and make a test, the modern medicine
may tell you everything is fine. Yet, it has no concern with simple
oriental medicine, basically old chinese medicine, wich uses only
the five senses to make what I will call here to put it simple a
diagnosis.
Modern medecine s purpose, in other words occidental medecine s
purpose, is to take the symptoms using all kind of ways, which to
me has no concern with curing a disease.
Nowadays, oriental medecine has the same purpose.
Very few people are interested in really curing a disease, mostly
because the causes of the diseases stay unknown.
Yet, diseases have a purpose, wich has a relation with what you
call wisdom. What I will call the purpose of living, in our case as
human beings.
