My medication fallacy (2) 我的醫療諺論(二)

I do not know why it happened. I cannot find when it started. The only point I can tell is most may have this concept when they become better off.

Nearly all western medicine are not hundred percent effective and most are with side effect, some even fatal. Just like drug for influenza, sometimes one would die and it is said that this is one among million to be so. No objection for those who have no relatives died this way.

Now, a few Chinese medicines in newly developed form for injection that came up with side effect, even the CCTV has a special show about this. May be I missed, I have never seen any such program for problems of western medicine.

This is the saddest thing to know that we point finger at some culture that developed by our ancestors for thousands of years while taking any foreign thing as treasure. That is the only reason that we had suffered and insulted by foreign devils for about one hundred year.

Well, may be one day we find that foreigners are taking Chinese medicine and Chinese are taking western medicine.

For tens of years, I found that a lot of cancer patients recovered only when they turned to Chinese medication. Even today, my Chinese Doctor has been busy with dozen of cancer patients, some recommended by the Western Doctors because they know that western method fails to deal with cancer.

The wonderful thing about lives is that there is no second chance. Some may disagree with me. Well, each one has his own choice and I have no obligation to save them.

Certainly, there are many cases that Chinese medication failed to save those dying patients because they changed to Chinese medication too late.

I have a photographic student some years ago. I already realized that he would have cancer because I found that he ordered spicy food and cold Coca-cola during lunch. This showed to me that his body was out of order. He would not believe me, but he was lucky that there is a X-ray technician in the same class. This technician advised him not to see the western doctor and introduced him to a Chinese doctor. So he recovered. The technician later became a Chinese Doctor.

我不知道出現的原因。我也不能找到發生的時間。唯一我可以說的是這種想法通常會在略為有錢的情況出現。

差不多所有西藥都不是百份百有效,大部份都會有不良影響有些更是致命。正如感冒藥,有時有人會因此而死亡,那就是稱為百萬份之一。沒有親人這樣死亡的都不會有任何意見。

現在有一些發展成注射式的中藥出現了不良反應,連中央電視台都有專門節目來談論。我可能漏看,我從來未看過有關西藥的問題。

最令人痛心的是我們竟然指責前人數千年建立的文化,而把所有外國的東西作為寶物。這正是我們被外國鬼子欺壓及侮辱了一百年的原因。

可能有一天我們發覺外國人倚賴中藥而中國人倚賴西藥。

數十年來,我看到不少患癌症的人因改用中藥而痊癒。在現在,我的中醫師仍忙著應付不少患癌的病人,有些竟然是他們的西醫推薦,因為他們明白西醫方法根本不能治療癌症。

生命最神奇的是沒有第二次機會。有些人會不同意我。好的,每個人都有個別的選擇,而我又沒有必要挽救他們。

當然中醫不能挽救不少垂死的病人因為他們沒有及早轉用中醫。

多年前,我攝影班中有一個學生。我早已感覺到他會有癌症,因為他午餐時總是吃辣的食物及一杯凍可樂。這是說他的身體有嚴重問題出現。他當然不會相信我。他真幸運,因為同班中有一位X-光師。這個X-光師叫他不要看西醫,反而介紹他去看一位中醫。結果他痊癒了。這位X-光師後來也改成了一個中醫。
