Have you ever wondered why certain illness are not going away? Read through this story and you might understand why? Margaret came to see the physician for suffering from unexplained tiredness also known as "Tired All The Time".
So as usual her physician recommended all the tests but nothing abnormal was revealed in the results, hence physician advised her to take some rest and time off from work to recoup herself.
She followed the advise and there was no improvement after taking rest also.
Again she went to the physician and a dietary analysis was recommended.
It was found out that she was drinking and eating a huge amount of food which were low in nutrients and high in stimulants.
She was taking more coffee, pizzas, fast food meals.
Her professional life was also terrible as she did not like the job she was doing on top of it she had to take care of another person work also who has left.
So she went to bed late every night and hence she did not have proper sleep too.
So, she went for complementary medicine to help her out as main stream medicine does not seem to help.
When she approached the traditional Chinese medicine practitioner and the diagnosis revealed that nodules were at the rear of the tongue and a red tip, which told them that she is under stress, has adrenal / kidney weakness.
The small glands that sit on top of kidneys are called as adrenal glands which releases adrenalin, which is responsible for releasing more oxygen to the muscles by increasing the heart rate during the times of need such as fight or life threatening situation.
Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners take pulses of internal organs at different locations in the wrist and they were able to find out that she had an overall weak pulse in both the kidney positions.
A laboratory test revealed that she had adrenal insufficiency due to constant over-stimulation of supplements and stress has worn out adrenal gland.
Now she has got answers to all her tiredness as combination of adrenal insufficiency with lack of nutrient and stress with lack of sleep.
So she went for good nutrient diets which gave her the immediate energy she required and took natural supplement for adrenal while she left her job which she was not happy and was able to go back to sleep easily at night and get enough of sleep.
Thus complementary medicine has helped this lady when orthodox medicine has failed to deliver.
So it is up to you on making the call when you need complementary medicine.
