Symptom – an indication of disease or disorder noticed by the patient himself.

It may be dull or sharp, localized or general, persistent and recurrent. Often it is radiating. Other subjective symptoms are discomfort, restlessness, fatigue.

ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE Cancer patients could benefit from the combining of Chinese and Western medicine PublIshed: Tuesday 1 October 2013 Combining traditional forms of Chinese and Western medicine could offer new hope for developing new treatments for liver, lung, colorectal cancers and osteosarcoma of the bones. Experts from Cardiff university's School of medicine have joined forces with Peking university in China to test the health benefits of a traditional Chinese medicine. The team also set-out to examine how by combining it with more traditional methods like Chemotherapycould improve patient outcomes and potentially lead to the development of new cancer treatments and therapies. "Traditional Chinese medicine where compounds are extracted from natural products or herbs has been practised for centuries in China, Korea, Japan and other countries in Asia," according to Professor Wen Jiang from Cardiff university's School of medicine, who is the director of the Cardiff university-Peking University Joint Cancer Institute at Cardiff and led the research as part of a collaboration between Cardiff University and Peking University. "Although a few successes, most of the traditional remedies are short of scientific explanation which has inevitably led to scepticism - especially amongst traditionalists in the West. "As a result, we set out to test the success of a Chinese medicine and then consider how combining it alongside traditional methods like Chemotherapy could result in positive outcome for patients," he adds. Yangzheng Xiaoji is a traditional Chinese formula consisting of 14 herbs. The formula has been shown to be beneficial to cancer patients - however, until now how it works has remained unknown. Since 2012 the Team have investigated how the formula works, discovering that it works by blocking a pathway which stops the spread of cancer cells in the body. "The formula has been shown to be beneficial to patients with certain solid tumours, when used alone and in conventional therapies, such as Chemotherapy. 6 "It suggests that combining the formula with conventional as well as new therapies could hold the key to developing new treatments for cancer patients. "We are already looking to clinical trials in treatment of lung and other cancer types." Going West With Eastern medicine - Traditional Chinese medicine Is Entering The mainstream In Terms Western Practitioners understand PublIshed: Thursday 17 May 2007 In recent years, interest in complementary medicine has re-ignited in a big way as consumers turn to nature in the search of alternative remedies. In particular increasing numbers of people are beginning to seek answers to needs unaddressed by Western science by looking to the ancient knowledge of Traditional Chinese medicines. This accounts for the high penetration of complementary medicines in developed economies. According to World health Organisation estimates, more than half the populations of developed countries have tried alternative medication at least once. however, most western trained practitioners have had little exposure to or training in traditional medicine and find it difficult to guide their patients in their choices.
