Patient's question:
I haven't been feeling well recently, and I keep experiencing symptoms like dizziness and nausea. Sometimes, I also do many things that I can't even understand myself. My daughter noticed something was wrong with me and accompanied me to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said I had epilepsy, but I'm not quite convinced that I have this condition.Doctor's answer:
The general theory of traditional Chinese medicine in treating epilepsy is based on fundamental principles, syndrome differentiation and treatment, classification and stage-based treatment. The treatment is divided into three steps: the acute phase, the stabilization phase, and the recovery phase. The principle of treatment is to "relax the liver, regulate qi, extinguish wind and calm shock, cool blood and transform properties, clear the heart and calm the mind, and nourish blood to pacify the spirit." This aims to adjust brain cells, activate brain cells, and completely restore the regenerative function of brain cells, achieving balance between yin and yang, nourishing yin and benefiting the kidneys, regulating qi and blood, promoting smooth blood circulation in the body, reducing blood oxygen content, completely restoring metabolic function, and completely eliminating abnormal cells, thereby controlling the condition.
