We find criss-crossing of Patterns vs. Conditions over the web page articles and formats. Most of the time one western condition entails several TCM Patterns. And again one TCM Pattern/Western Condition intermingles several Westwrn Conditions and TCM Patterns simultaneously.This creates a state of confusion. What is the best way to arrive at the right diagnosis?
I mean, say for example, someone is suffering from Hypertension, or Hyperglycemia; how can I ascertain the specific TCM Pattern s/he is faling in?
Please give a Road-map!
thanks

    For general information, I would start by reading my “What Does Acupuncture Treat?” article which discusses treating causes vs. symptoms. After that I would read the “Acupuncture Point Treatment Plan” article which discusses ways to design treatment protocols.

    For base theories, I would start with the following 3 texts:
