16 years old, a 60-year-old man with chronic carbuncle. After careful pulse consultation, Fang Boping adopted the "riding a bamboo horse moxibustion method" in the Emergency Moxibustion Prescription, that is, the patient rides on a bamboo pole wrapped in a quilt, above his head, and two people on both sides hold the patient and smoke the sore with lighted moxa sticks. This rare therapy made Fang Heqian, a teenager who was followed up, feel incredible. However, to his surprise, after moxibustion 10 years, the patient's scab was cured.
The magic of TCM treatment further strengthened Fang Heqian's medical ambition of inheriting family studies. Besides memorizing a lot of medical classics, The Doctor's Secret and three medical notes written by his father are also valuable learning materials for him. I accompany my father to see the clinic for six hours every day and insist on reading for three hours. So far, Fang Heqian has memorized 397 Treatise on Febrile Diseases and 1 13 prescriptions.
1942, 19-year-old Fang Heqian took the Chinese medicine examination of Beijing Municipal Health Bureau. During the interview, the examiner asked orally, "Why can Chinese medicine cure diseases?" This question sounds very difficult. The students gave various answers, which stumped many people. Fang Heqian thought for a moment and calmly replied, "Heaven eats people with five flavors, but people with five flavors eat them quietly." "The husband's five flavors enter the stomach, so the acid enters the liver first, the bitterness enters the heart first, the sweetness enters the spleen first, the pungent enters the lung first, the salty enters the kidney first, and the gas increases for a long time, which is materialized and common." He blurted out the relevant scripture in Neijing, and the teacher gave him full marks for his concise and incisive answer. After passing the examination, Fang Heqian obtained the qualification of practicing medicine, and the "Fang Heqian Clinic" was also listed, starting his career of practicing medicine independently. In order to stimulate western medicine students' interest in Chinese medicine, he paid special attention to the artistry and interest of lectures, and introduced poems and songs related to Chinese medicine into teaching, which frequently attracted students' admiration.
From 65438 to 0954, Fang Heqian ended his individual medical career and was transferred to the Chinese Medicine Department of Beijing Municipal Health Bureau. Two years later, he was transferred to Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and served as the head of the typhoid teaching and research group of Beijing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. In the post of education, Fang Heqian put forward higher requirements for himself.
In order to better find the source of textual research and quotations in teaching, he analyzed the contents of Treatise on Febrile Diseases and synopsis of the Golden Chamber word by word and went deep into the library. Hundreds of annotations of Treatise on Febrile Diseases, which Ke Yunbo and You Zaijing were waiting for, were all borrowed. There are 397 treatise on febrile diseases, each with its own lecture notes. When he was talking about Medical Records of Internal Medicine, he read a large number of medical records such as Wang's medical records, Xue Lizhai's medical records, and famous doctors' medical records, and organically combined them with the theories of Neijing, Treatise on Febrile Diseases and synopsis of the Golden Chamber, combining with the clinical practice, which deeply inspired the students.
Starting from 1968, Fang Heqian became the director of traditional Chinese medicine department of Beichao Hospital, and also undertook the teaching work of Capital Medical University. In order to stimulate western medicine students' interest in Chinese medicine, he paid special attention to the artistry and interest of lectures. Students rated his class as "rich in cultural background", and he quoted classics in class, including poems and songs related to traditional Chinese medicine, which frequently attracted students' admiration.
Academically, Fang Heqian has no reservations and selfless dedication to students, but in life, he is humble and caring for students. He has trained secondary school students, college students, advanced students and doctors of western medicine all over the world, and many of them have become the pillars and backbones of Chinese medicine. 199 1 By 2008, Fang Heqian had served as the instructor for the first, second, third and fourth batches of TCM experts' academic experience inheritance. From June 5, 2007 to 10, Beijing Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine approved the construction of "Fang Heqian Famous Old Chinese Medicine Studio". In order to inspire students to study in the future, Fang Heqian, regardless of his 85-year-old age, took the initiative to systematically explain Treatise on Febrile Diseases for students and young doctors in the "famous doctor lecture hall". Fang Heqian said that the classics of Chinese medicine never tire of learning, and warned students to read living books, living books, living books, and practice by themselves, and never too old to learn.
His disciples told reporters that in life, Fang Heqian is a person who is very interested in life: he likes Beijing opera, chess and mahjong, and his calligraphy is very beautiful. He is a gourmet. When he meets delicious food in a restaurant, he must learn to use it for himself. Fang Heqian said that medicine and food are of the same origin, and cooking and prescription have the same effect. Good dishes pay attention to the main ingredients and auxiliary materials, what to put, how much to put, and how to match them, so that the dishes can be delicious. On holidays, he is the "chef" at home, and his Shandong cuisine is delicious. His signature dishes such as "rotten fish fillets" and "braised elbows" gave his disciples a thumbs up.
Fang Heqian is open-minded and willing to accept new things. I studied Japanese for four years when I was young, but now I like reading Japanese in my spare time. The disciples jokingly called the teacher's pronunciation "Osaka style". I'm over 80 years old and still learning English. SMS is "slippery". Up to now, the elderly ride disabled motorcycles to and from work, take their wives to the market to buy food, and even once yearned for a motor vehicle driver's license. Fang Heqian is proficient in typhoid fever, but he doesn't call himself a classic prescription. He advocated the combination of classical prescriptions and contemporary prescriptions. In 1960s, he edited a documentary about Japanese encephalitis treatment in Beijing. At that time, there were 1 TCM doctors in hospitals in Beijing, which had a wide influence.
Fang Heqian insisted on promoting Zhongjing's academic, syndrome differentiation and treatment and holistic view. He believes that the academic development of Chinese medicine in the 2 1 century can not be rigidly adhered to, and only on the basis of a deep understanding of Zhongjing's scholarship can it be integrated and applied flexibly. The so-called learning its methods is not muddy. Fang Heqian is proficient in typhoid fever, but he doesn't call himself a classic cookbook. He advocates that classics should be combined with the times and used properly, such as the effect of drums; Moreover, the prescription is limited, which can not meet the needs of the development of disease spectrum, and it depends on time to supplement it. He used the ancient prescriptions he had learned to make innovations, such as Suanzaoren Decoction in Synopsis of the Golden Chamber to treat fatigue and insomnia, and Fang Heqian added Zhu Ru and Bai Wei from Zhupi Pill, which had a good effect on insomnia due to yin deficiency and dampness.
He made good use of "harmony", emphasized the therapeutic concept of taking healthy qi as the foundation and strengthening the body resistance and eliminating pathogenic factors, put forward the incisive opinion of "harmony for strengthening the body resistance and eliminating pathogenic factors", and founded "Zibu Decoction" and "Hegan Decoction", which relieved the pain of many critically ill patients in clinic.
Fang Heqian advocates the combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine, with complementary advantages. Both Chinese medicine and western medicine need to make the past serve the present and strive for perfection. They can be complementary, but they are by no means complementary. As a modern Chinese medicine, we can make use of modern medical diagnosis methods and cooperate with the four diagnoses, which is beneficial to the diagnosis of Chinese medicine; But we can't just check the theory and discard the treatment based on syndrome differentiation. Traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine have their own views on the understanding, classification and diagnosis of diseases. Regardless of the objective reality, copying mechanically will not only cure the disease, but also delay the illness, which is a blasphemy against Chinese and Western medicine.
1956 In the summer, a sudden epidemic of Japanese encephalitis ravaged Beijing. As a member of Chinese Medicine Department of Beijing Municipal Health Bureau, Fang Heqian devoted himself to the rescue and treatment of Japanese encephalitis. From 65438 to 0955, the Beijing Municipal Health Bureau adopted the experience of Shijiazhuang "White Tiger Decoction" in treating Japanese encephalitis, but the effect was little. Finally, Mr. Pu Fuzhou and Mr. Yue Zhongmei from China Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine were invited to guide the consultation. Pu Lao believes that 1955 is the season of dry fire, and Yangming is hot inside, so "White Tiger Decoction" is effective; However, in 1956, there was a lot of rain and humidity, so aromatization was carried out to remove turbidity and pathogen. Pufuzhou used Huoxiang Zhengqi Powder, which made the curative effect of the disease reach more than 90% and saved many lives.
The diagnosis and treatment of Japanese encephalitis taught Fang Heqian a lifelong lesson. He further realized that only by seeking truth from facts academically and not divorced from syndrome differentiation and treatment can ideal results be achieved. For the treatment of wind, cold, summer, dampness, dryness, fire and other six evils, we should use them flexibly and not stick to the rules. In order to summarize the experience of treating Japanese encephalitis, Fang Heqian edited the Documentary of Treating Japanese encephalitis in Beijing 65438-0957. More than 200 medical records were collected in the book, and 200 copies were printed by Beijing Municipal Health Bureau and distributed to various medical units. At that time, there was a Chinese medicine book in Beijing, which had a wide influence. Later, he edited books such as Yanshan Night Talk.
When SARS broke out in March, 2003, Fang Heqian thought that Chinese medicine should be brought into full play. In April, I pleaded with the Party Committee of Chinese Medicine Department of Beijing Chaoyang Hospital. Considering his 80-year-old age, his superiors did not approve his request to go to the front line of SARS. Even though he was living in a hospital, at the peak of SARS, Fang Heqian still insisted on going out of the clinic and checking the ward. He drew up a preventive prescription and distributed it to the hospital medical staff, saying "nothing to be afraid of", which made the medical staff around him deeply educated and encouraged. As a national expert in traditional Chinese medicine, Fang Heqian actively offered suggestions and suggestions to state administration of traditional chinese medicine, arguing that the cold and dampness in different stages of SARS are different, and it is still necessary to treat it according to syndrome differentiation, which has made great contributions to defeating SARS. Prescription drugs in Fang Heqian are relatively weak, and a drug is usually a few dollars; Soup is very particular about taste, try not to use drugs that are too bitter or too unpleasant. The patient praised "Fang Lao's medicine tastes less, tastes not difficult to drink, and solves the problem".
Fang Heqian's medical skill is very famous in the field of traditional Chinese medicine. Many general hospitals in Beijing often ask Fang Heqian for consultation when the treatment of critically ill patients is ineffective. His unique medical skills have brought many patients with difficult diseases back to life and turned the corner. He is good at treating all kinds of intractable diseases. During his 60-year medical career, he has treated countless patients.
A few years ago, an 8 1 year-old man came to Chaoyang Hospital, suffering from diabetes for a long time and complicated with a serious complication-diabetic foot. The left toe of the elderly is subacute necrosis, and the toe is black and purple 1 month, which makes it very difficult to move. Western medicine believes that only amputation. The old man and his family are in a dilemma. After being introduced, the old man found Fang Heqian for treatment. After careful inquiry, Fang Heqian confirmed that the disease was caused by deficiency of vitality and deficiency of both qi and yin. So I used the self-made "nourishing soup" to nourish my vitality, strengthen my body and eliminate evil spirits. Two weeks later, the patient used Fang Heqian's 12 "Self-made Buzhong Decoction", and the edema of limbs improved. After 6 weeks, the patient's tissue gangrene healed. When I came to the hospital again, I saw that the old man was ruddy, moving freely and walking slowly.
Fang Heqian's medical skills not only enjoy a high reputation in China, but also some overseas Chinese friends often come here.
In 2004, he was consulted by Mr. Jiang, an American Chinese. Mr. Jiang suffered from persistent diarrhea, abdominal pain and bloody stool, and was diagnosed as Crohn's disease in the United States. Teacher Jiang saw western medicine in the United States, and the treatment has not improved in the past two years. American doctors said that there was no cure and suggested that Mr. Jiang be treated by surgery. After returning to China, Mr. Jiang went to many hospitals to see Chinese medicine, and took various prescriptions 1 for many years, but he still didn't recover. Fang Heqian saw that she was emaciated, and the patient had abdominal pain, abdominal distension and diarrhea for many years. Barium meal examination showed that ileum was segmental stenosis, forming a false diverticulum. Fang Heqian diagnosed the syndrome as weakness of temper and stagnation of qi due to dampness. Subsequently, we used Shen Ling Baizhu Powder to invigorate the spleen and eliminate dampness, and Xianglian Pill to regulate qi and relieve pain. 1 week later, when Mr. Jiang came to see a doctor again, his condition improved obviously. In the past two years, Mr. Jiang insisted on flying back and forth between the two countries. Every time before returning to China, he took 60 or 70 doses of Chinese medicine prescribed by Fang Heqian with him, and finally recovered, which surprised American doctors.
Fang Heqian often taught his disciples that "patients are our parents" and "medicine is benevolence". We should treat patients equally and be highly responsible, regardless of position or wealth. When Fang Heqian was 84 years old, he still went to the clinic 5-6 days a week, receiving about 30 patients at a time. His spirit makes young people admire him.
He prescribed medicine with little strength and no big prescription. He seldom used precious drugs such as rhinoceros horn, antelope horn and musk, trying to solve the problem simply, conveniently and cheaply. Usually a medicine is only a few dollars, at most a dozen dollars; Fang Heqian pays special attention to the nursed back to health of the spleen and stomach, and often adds raw rice buds and coke divine comedy to "protect stomach qi and preserve body fluid"; Pay great attention to the taste when opening soup, and try not to use drugs that are too bitter or smelly. The patient praised "Fang Lao's medicine has little taste, it is not difficult to drink, and it solves the problem". "Sitting here is half the cure".
