中寻西就很可耻?

生病-->断定自己有多严重-->想寻找怎样的治疗-->决定被治疗-->被治疗

以上看似很多个步骤,很漫长的一段路,但,当这一系列忽然发生在一个痛到像快疯掉的情况之下,而且,每一个细节自己必须保持清醒,就算是在sedative之下也要了解医生说的每一个字的重点,然后,自己判断,然后定下最正确的决定(记得:这都发生在一瞬间,而且,你。很。痛。)

我了解,我现在两边不是人。
这感觉,一。点。都。不。好。玩。 >.<
我的成长过程,一路都"西化",
但,我现在好像一定要,必须要,完全"中化"。
就连为我治疗的surgeon,在知道我正在念中医,他的第一句话:
Interesting~ a chinese med seeking consultation from a western med, this is interesting.
*heart broken*

然后,某某在知道我有肾结石,帮我分析病情,
再附上一个中药方,说:其实,有一个方对肾结石很有帮助。
嗯。。。是我想太多?还是,我真的被误解了?

我的解释如下:
我Day 1的diagnosis: Hydronephrosis (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydronephrosis),
尿的量:完全不能estimate,或是being sensed normally as "an urge to pee"
尿的颜色:黑-紫-红 (因前几天正好来月经,所以真的完全分不清)
疼痛:应该已经超过普通limit,因为我不觉得很痛,只是觉得快疯了,而且,来得比鬼还突然
CT result: right kidney totally obstructed, and unable to produce any contrast
urologist analysis: still can consider for 2 days before the kidney is damaged, and we can give u pain killers while u consider.

OK~ 是你,你会如何做选择?
痛到疯掉 + risk of kidney damage + 在这考虑的两天用中药?

My choice: "Now!! relieve the pressure in the kidney."
Why take the unnecessary risk just for nothing?

不懂。。。很痛苦。。。
不是病的痛,不是治疗的痛,
是那不是人的痛。。。。很痛。。。

as a patient, and as a "patial" med student,
my stand: Chinese med and Western med is compliment to each other, and both have their own limitations. There is no way that one can be so stubborn as to deny what the other party can do for the good of the patient just to protect where you think you are standing and to uphold its "greatness".

我发现我的stand point, 两年了,完全没有改变 :)
