Today was my third acupuncture treatment. My body get used to the treatment. I had a relaxing treatment as usual. From the diagnosis of my tongue and pulse, my spleen still needs to be healed.
This time, my acupuncturist prescribed me two Chinese medicine tea.
One is familiar with me. I have taken for 3 weeks now. It is called 六味地黄丸. It is for diabetes. It also enhances the function of kidney.
The other one is new to me. It is called 降脂飲. This is to lower the cholesterol.
I wanted to experiment about my diabetes medicine, Metformin. Since May 25th, I had stopped taking the medicine. I closely checked my glucose level. It had been good until two days ago. Since June 4th, however, my glucose levels started spiking up again. It seemed to be back to the bad stage again.
I mentioned that to her. She did not agree to completely stop medication all of a sudden. She suggested to go slow. Maybe I can reduce the intake amount first. And then, I can reduce the frequency from twice a day to once a day. If I do well with the frequency, then the next step will be once in every other day. Slowly and slowly, by closely checking my glucose level.
I really want to get rid of medication from my body, but I guess I need to be patient and gentle with my body.
