Patient discussion about reportable diseases.

Q. My hubby is 34 and he has lost half of his total hair. Is Chinese Medicine worth to give a try? My hubby is 34 and he has lost half of his total hair. We have approached the doctor and he has prescribed him some medicines to check on the hair fall. Unfortunately, the medicines did not work for him and again the doctor has changed the medicines. This year he was put on four different medicines but with no results. Now I doubt frequent change of medicines also adds to the problem. He is totally frustrated with the system and wants to give try with Chinese Medicines. Is Chinese Medicine worth to give a try?

A. i tried several treatments...regular...alternative...anything. but i have to say that it may have slowed down the hair fall a bit- but didn't stop it. i came to the conclusion that you just can't beat genetics :)

Q. What shall I give to eat for a good memory? My son forgets any given tasks very easily. With any given task either he will not complete the task or he will forget. His grandfather is having Alzheimer’s disease and I do not want him to suffer the same in his old age. What shall I give to eat for a good memory?

A. I agree with Edmund's answer and I heard rosemary helps too.

Q. I am not sure how and why did I get this disorder? Is Chinese Medicine worth to give a try? I am obese from my young age. I was born with a weight of 11 pounds. My pet name is potato in my friends circle. Though I feel ashamed to be obese, I am not able to lose weight or fat. I do believe that nothing can be done with my weight. All I wish now is to live healthy. I am aware that kids born with heavy weight are susceptible to heart disease at a later stage. I have now developed gastro-intestinal disorders with irritable bowel syndrome. Constipation is piling up my trouble. I have no hopes with allopathic system. I am not sure how and why did I get this disorder? Is Chinese Medicine worth to give a try?

A. Causes of gastrointestinal disorder are many. To include few are poor diet, over eating, eating with drinks, stress and tobacco use. Use of some of the medicines also causes this disorder. Bacterial, viral and fungal infections also cause this disorder. It is the infection of gastrointestinal tract. Chinese Medicine uses acupuncture, herbal medicines and moxibustion to cure the disorder. You can get a definite cure as there are evidences to support the case.
