Acupuncture and liu wei di huang wan
Hi
I have lupus induced kidney disease class4 since 2006, treated with prednisone and cellcept off and on, not follwing doctors, dosages. The CKD is stage 1. Last month probably due to a flareup, i developed acute symptoms that i never saw before--swelling on the face and my lower legs. I didn, t feel well. My creatinine went from 1 to 5 to 17 in 3 weeks. GFR from 85 to 71, even after taking 3 weeks of 60mg of predinsone.
I panic, thinking that maybe this time my kidneys were in real trouble.
I tried acupuncture before for something else. It worked like magic. So I did acupuncture 4 times in 10 days. The needle are thicker and are hookedup to electro, also with heat, for half an hour.
I also took traditional chinese med liu wei di huang wan, twice a day.
When I repeated my lab, I had 4 acupuncture treatments and was the 5th days taking the chinese med.
I also eat okra, 10 pieces a day, extracted with other fruits or veggie in the blender, for the 5th days.
The lab work came back amazing. For just these few days, my creatinine went from 17 to 6. GFR from 71 to 85. I feel so much better too.
Acupuncture does work. The chinese med aims to tonify the kidneys. . You can feel it work right away.
I am so glad and feel obligated to come to share these so people might try it out too.
