Many patients ask what information they need to bring to their appointment, so here is a brief summary for you. I hope it will help you. The more comprehensive the information you bring, the better the doctor’s understanding of your condition. Don’t think that Chinese medicine doctors only take the pulse and look at the tongue, modern Chinese medicine doctors also need to understand your western medicine diagnosis and treatment. The more comprehensive the Chinese medicine doctor is, the better he can prescribe Chinese medicine for you. 2, keep the original appearance, do not “repair” before seeing a Chinese medicine doctor is best to keep the original appearance, do not wear makeup; do not scrape the tongue; do not eat food that can dye the tongue. Because makeup can easily cover up your original skin color and spots, artificially create the illusion of confusing doctors. Scraping the tongue will cause the doctor to have a biased understanding of your condition. For example, eating cucumber, eggs, purple rice porridge, milk, soy milk, etc. the night before or the morning of the visit may leave a very obvious pigment on the tongue, which may cover up the original color of the moss. There are also some patients who take some colored tablets and chew gum because of sore throat or cold, and so on, which should be eliminated before the consultation. 3. Don’t forget to bring your medical record and prescription of recent herbal medicine when you visit the doctor. The medical record given to you by your previous doctor is very important because the doctor has to see 50-60 patients a day and cannot remember every patient’s condition very well. If you forget to bring your medical record, it will affect his recollection of your condition and understanding of the process of change, thus affecting your treatment. The prescriptions you have taken before are also very important. Doctors are not gods, they cannot be 100% accurate the first time they look at you and feel your pulse. The path that was taken in the past but did not work is a lesson for the doctor, so take the previous prescriptions with you, so that the doctor has a reference and analysis, can help you more effectively. 4. Remember what the doctor said to you, and repeat the doctor’s words appropriately during the follow-up consultation, which will help the doctor to recover your memory quickly. The doctor sees a lot of patients every day, and there are many patients with similar conditions, so how to let the doctor recover your memory quickly in a short time is a learning curve. If the doctor’s memory of you is coherent, the continuity of treatment for you will be better. Therefore, it is recommended that you do some proper pencil work after your visit while waiting for your medication to be taken, and write down some of the things the doctor has said about you, such as your body type, dietary contraindications, etc. In fact, there are very smart patients who have their own plans, cooperate well with the doctor and accordingly, achieve good results in treatment. To have a faster and better treatment effect, you need to pay attention to yourself. Many tumor patients are in serious condition and cannot come for face-to-face consultation. First of all, you should bring the patient’s medical history (as mentioned in 1); secondly, you should know all the patient’s symptoms, eating, urinating and defecating, sleeping, etc. It is better not to let the doctor talk to the patient on the phone temporarily for consultation, because there are too many patients in the clinic, so it is a bit disrespectful to the doctor and other patients to dial the phone temporarily, which will affect the doctor’s mood. It is best to bring a frontal photo of the patient and a photo of the tongue to help the doctor make a more reasonable assessment of the patient’s condition.
