Acupuncture & TCM prescription for concomitant symptoms of acid reflux

This patient came with severe chest pain for one month, extending to the back, palpitation, and shortness of breath. From her history, she also had reflux esophagitis, heartburn for two months. Now had a low appetite and insomnia.

After our TCM consultation, we consider the chest pain was highly possible caused by acid reflux.

After one session of acupuncture and one week TCM prescription, she sent us the feedback that the chest pain, as well as other symptoms, were gradually reduced.

In our clinical cases, we could see a lot of patients feel chest pain or palpitation but no remarkable result after a cardio check-up. Therefore, the differential diagnosis is the key point, it leads the main direction and strategy of treatment before any therapy.
