Take a look as someone tries to convince a friend to try Chinese medicine.

@Jools_jti If the NHS is gonna take forever try some alternatives like chinese herbal medicine, I've had really good results from that.

Jools_jti:
@technex Already taken 7weeks, if I cant see specialist this week, am walking into casualty. Its a strong antibiotic job, ginseng wont do :)

technex:
@Jools_jti I had a really bad skin infection and chinese herbs cleared it right up when conventional meds wouldn't, don't write it off.

Jools_jti:
@technex Was only joking, I have been using Manuka honey with better results than anything prescribed to date. However its now quite serious

technex:
@Jools_jti It's worth a visit to a good chinese herbal doctor, they have real diagnostic skill. But yeah, casualty might be a good backup.
This is so interesting to me because it follows the format of many conversations I have had and overheard about Chinese medicine. Someone complains of a health problem, you recommend Chinese medicine, there's a flip blow-off ("ginseng won't do") and an earnest rejoinder ("they have real diagnostic skill") and then...? It all depends. Keep having those conversations! And do good work - if you get results that's all anyone cares about.
