I had a conversation yesterday with a patient. Quite interesting. She is a patient who has done really well over her time with me. Her intense burning has been chipped away at over time and she has managed no burning tp quite low levels depsite her continued sweet eating. If she would be able to stop it-she would not have any incidence of even low levels here and there that she has. However, that is not what is interesting.

What I found pretty incredible yesterday was that she’d been having some fairly severe gall bladder problems-to the point of the doctors wanting to remove her GB. Coincidentally (?) she also had issues with uterine fibroids. She wants to get pregnant and the location of the fibroids would inhibit her ability to get pregnant. So, they went in to surgically remove the fibroids. When they went in, they found uteriine polyps. They could not remove the fibroids because of they delicate location. But, they did remove the polyps. None of that is what was fascinating. What was really incredible is, that after they performed the surgery forremoving the polyps, her GB pain disappeared. OK, even I, a person who strongly subscribes to the belief in the manipulation of energy kind of hesitated. But when I think about it-that area around the genitalia and uterus have everything to do with the “Liver” energy. In Chinese medicine the Liver and Gall Bladder go hand in hand energetically. I believe the polyps that were stagnating the nergy in that area were impeding the energetic flow and effecting the organ and meridian system around the area of the GB and the surgery facilitated movement.

There really is not any Western explanation that makes sense here-but using CM, one could draw this correlation. I thought I would share as this is a great story.
