The first time I learned about Chinese medicine was when I got rhinitis in high school, the symptoms were so severe that it seriously affected my studies. When I graduated from senior high school and filled out a volunteer application, I felt that Chinese medicine was very mysterious, so I filled out an application for Hubei College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and entered the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine at Hubei College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 1997. When I first studied Chinese medicine, I found it boring and tedious, far less interesting than mathematics, science and chemistry, and I often wavered in my confidence in learning Chinese medicine, but I was able to learn more concrete and empirical knowledge, but the theory was particularly difficult to understand. The profound theories of Chinese medicine are not understood. After graduating from university, I went to work in a county-level people’s hospital. The size of the Chinese medicine department is very small, two old Chinese medicine doctors who are about to retire, plus I have a total of three people, the entire Chinese medicine department in the hospital in a dispensable position, the department of twilight sinking, the future of Chinese medicine feel disappointed. When I first became a doctor, I could only learn to write prescriptions according to a cat and a gourd, but slowly I gained some experience, and more and more patients came to the outpatient clinic and often to the inpatient department. In 2002, when the SARS epidemic started, the TCM department suddenly became very busy, and the whole hospital was filled with people who came to prescribe Chinese medicine for prevention, which initially made me feel the advantages and characteristics of TCM. In 2005, in order to learn more experience and study TCM more deeply and systematically, I enrolled in a master’s degree in TCM internal medicine at Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The university has a greater reputation in TCM circles, it is active in scientific research and has nationally known scholars and famous doctors. During the 3 years I studied and worked in the Research Institute of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, I learned scientific research methods more systematically and comprehensively, and returned to the clinic to enrich myself and improve my clinical ability and scientific research design. My master’s supervisor has more research topics, including basic, clinical, and methodological research, with a wide range of research ideas and a lot of outpatients. Therefore, during my postgraduate studies, I dived into research on TCM and combined Chinese and Western medicine treatment of pulmonary diseases. It was then that I realized the connotation of TCM research and gained some preliminary understanding of TCM research, TCM modernization and integration of Chinese and Western medicine. Looking back on the first eleven years of my career in Chinese medicine, mainly in continuous learning and accumulation, gradually enrichment and improvement, therefore, the real feeling is that only with hard experience can be a small harvest, in order to seek greater contribution, we must continue to study. It can be said that “learning is endless”, learning more, to know their own poverty, to know the direction of research and efforts. Second, learning experience At present, due to employment pressure, some Chinese medicine students are not motivated to learn; or due to improper learning methods, some students learn and forget, the teacher said a lot of knowledge can not be fully understood. This is both different and similar to the situation when we were studying. Looking back on the university years, some teachers lecture is very exciting, the affinity is very strong, but after learning seems to gain little, and even a few years later almost forgotten. While some teachers are more demanding and boring to learn, but the knowledge required to be recited is still fresh in my mind, and I can learn from the past and use it flexibly. Therefore, the study and clinical improvement of Chinese medicine is not limited to learning from a certain teacher, or just learning in the classroom, or reading a few books, but requires erudition, that is, as Zhongjing said, “to learn from all sides”. In addition to the basic knowledge and theories of Chinese medicine, prescriptions, Chinese medicine diagnosis and Western medicine, important chapters such as “The Essentials of Jin Kui”, “Treatise on Typhoid”, “Wenzhi” and “Nei Jing” should be memorized, and clinical skills need to be studied extensively and mastered carefully. It should be said that these studies have played an important role in my ability to adapt to my job smoothly after graduation. The difficulty in learning TCM is in theoretical improvement. The reason why clinical progress cannot be made and is not grasped is mainly due to the lack of deep understanding of TCM theory and the inability to use theory flexibly to guide practice. It is necessary to combine clinical experience with theory in a timely manner, to grasp the essence of the theory of TCM, and then return to the clinic, so that there will be improvement progress. Learning Chinese medicine requires diligence. The ancients usually started memorizing introductory books and classics of Chinese medicine from childhood, or learned Chinese medicine after having a lot of knowledge of Chinese studies, or they were motivated to learn medicine due to illness, or they were apprentices and learned by ear, and their success was always accompanied by hard work. The study of Chinese medicine is not like Western medicine or other natural sciences, where one can deduce many doctrines or methods from one theory, or master certain basic knowledge to be able to generalize, but requires a lot of reading, comprehending the experience of previous generations, and then constantly contacting practice, rising theory, and returning to the clinic, in order to “string” various doctrines and theoretical knowledge together Clinical progress requires diligent study, and when you encounter problems you do not understand, you can read books, but you should not be ashamed to ask questions, or actively communicate with colleagues and consult each other. In addition, Chinese medicine attaches great importance to absorbing the strengths of various disciplines, and multidisciplinary knowledge is a characteristic of Chinese medicine theory. In the modern research of TCM, it is increasingly realized that multidisciplinary knowledge should be used to play the role of comprehensive coordination and communication and connection of multiple disciplines in macroscopic generalization or microscopic analysis, which is determined by the characteristics of academic theory of TCM. Third, firm confidence Recently, there are many voices discussing the future and fate of Chinese medicine, and many voices denying the abolition of Chinese medicine, which is the development of Chinese medicine must face. It also shows that some people still have a vague understanding of Chinese medicine, or there are such and such errors, and therefore need to be clarified. Chinese medicine is the only science in history, before Western medicine came to China; and the history of Chinese humanities and society has not seen the plague epidemic, which killed tens of millions of people in Europe in the Middle Ages, and did not happen, which proves that Chinese medicine is a science, not something unscientific. A simple statement that Chinese medicine is not scientific is just not understanding this piece, or it is the rant of people who have not studied it. Secondly, some health care products, under the banner of “pure Chinese medicine theory, pure Chinese medicine preparations”, are fraudulent, and health care products are described as panaceas that cannot cure any disease, which seriously affects the reputation of Chinese medicine. Some TCM doctors are reluctant to accept the physiology, pathology, anatomy and even first aid measures of Western medicine, and the diagnostic terminology of TCM is not in line with the requirements of the times, which invariably makes TCM in the minds of the public, has become arcane and difficult to understand, and can only be hidden as a cultural relic “treasure trove”. Chinese medical theory, knowing that some of them are wrong understanding, prefer to silently adhere to the rules, but also never want to cross the thunderbolt step, such as the function of the spleen, the heart is the main god, the heart to move heat in the small intestine of the small intestine fire and so on. There are also some metaphysics, theology imposed on the superstitious color of Chinese medicine, is also among the people, causing adverse effects of one of the important reasons. Therefore, as Ren Jiyu said, the study of Chinese medicine, we have a responsibility to guard the land, this scientific territory can not be easily abandoned. This is not a personal problem, this is a question of the rise and fall of the nation, this is a question of whether the nation can continue to move forward, to say a big thing, to say a small thing is also a small thing. The most important thing is to build the self-confidence of the Chinese nation, to discover the strengths of our nation, to carry forward its strengths, and at the same time we need to understand the opposing views. This is how culture is developed, and this is a law that should be followed. The study of Chinese medicine should be followed up theoretically. We need to understand Western medicine and develop ourselves at the same time.
