Male,

The
patient had been constipated and a tube was inserted through esophagus to
remove food contents in the stomach. After the procedure, the patient could not
swallow even a drop of water. He was put on tube feeding and the
condition lasted for 11 months while under other treatments.
Treatment consisted of acupuncture and Chinese herbs. He was able to drink about 10 mL of water immediately after the 1st treatment (day 1) and about 30 mL of herbal tea after the 2nd treatment (day 2). He also ate small amount of applesauce, yogurt, and cookies. Five treatments later, his supper included scramble eggs and chicken noodle soup. He was able to enjoy salmon, steak, and other foods and was completely cured after about a week and half’s treatment. Follow up check a year later showed no rebound.
