On July 7, 2024, Good Doctor News reported that a 70-year-old woman in Taiwan suffering from chronic kidney disease, diabetes, proteinuria, and urinary tract infections experienced a reversal of kidney function from end-stage renal disease to stage two after receiving combined Western and traditional Chinese medical care. The woman’s glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) had dropped to a critical level, but after three years of treatment focusing on nourishing qi and blood while clearing excess heat, her eGFR improved significantly along with her appetite. The case highlights the potential of integrating traditional Chinese medicine into the treatment of chronic diseases like kidney and diabetes, reducing the need for dialysis.
