In 2017, Ms. Wang, who lives in Houhetou Village, Muye District, Xinxiang City, was found to have breast cancer.

It is said that breast cancer is no longer an incurable disease, and the 5-year survival rate of early and local breast cancer can reach 99%, but cancer is still unacceptable to Ms. Wang.

On the advice of a local doctor, Ms. Wang underwent a total resection of her left breast and began chemotherapy after the operation. Two courses of chemotherapy made Ms. Wang suffer from distension, hiccups, poor sleep, cold fear, general weakness, discomfort, and boredom even to go to the toilet, and Ms. Wang developed a persistent low fever (about 37 ℃ for about 3 months).

The side effects of chemotherapy caused great pain to Ms. Wang, who had just escaped from cancer. She felt that her current physical condition could no longer withstand the next round of chemotherapy, so her family had to seek medical treatment everywhere and find another way.

In July 2017, under the introduction of a friend, Ms. Wang's family learned that Dr. Zhang Zhonghai, an oncology expert in Jiaozuo Zhonghai traditional Chinese Medicine Cancer Hospital, had made great achievements in treating cancer by using Zhang's traditional Chinese medicine therapy combined with Chinese herbal medicine, so they brought Ms. Wang to our hospital and asked Dr. Zhang Zhonghai for medical treatment.

"it was summer, and everyone else was wearing short sleeves, but I was still cold in my cotton-padded jacket. I was afraid to enter the house when I was waiting for a doctor, because the air conditioner was on and I couldn't stand it. " Ms. Wang recalls the scene when she went to the doctor, and she still remembers it vividly.

Director Zhang Zhonghai said: the comprehensive treatment of western medicine for breast cancer includes surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, endocrine therapy, targeted therapy, and traditional Chinese medicine treatment runs through the whole process of comprehensive treatment. The treatment methods of traditional Chinese medicine are different in different stages, which depends on the characteristics of each stage.

During the operation, the patient experienced severe injury of qi and blood after radical operation. The disfiguration of the body after operation is not only physical trauma, but also mental trauma, depression, insomnia and so on. At this time, the focus of treatment should be placed on nourishing qi and blood, calming the mind and relieving depression.

During the chemotherapy period, patients often have varying degrees of nausea and vomiting and loss of appetite. At this time, the focus of treatment should be placed on the stomach and stop vomiting, transport spleen appetizer and other aspects. During radiotherapy, local skin has slight burns, patients often feel dry throat, cough and so on. The focus of treatment should be on nourishing yin and clearing heat, moistening dryness and relieving cough.

During the endocrine therapy period, the patient's body slowly recovers, and many young patients may do drug castration to block menstruation by injecting drugs, resulting in similar menopausal symptoms, such as irritability, sweating, fever, insomnia, and so on. The focus of treatment can be placed on nourishing yin and clearing heat, collecting yin and stopping sweating, and so on. After the symptoms are relieved, they can strengthen the positive and dispel evil and treat them to consolidate the treatment.
