knee pain for 1 yr (dry eyes)

"my eyes are killing me..." she added, "they are so dry like sand paper" I have seen a number of patients with dry eyes but she seems to have the driest eyes. even though she came due to her left knee pain, she complained about her eyes more than her knee pain.

she is around 50 yr old and very healthy otherwise. upon palpation there is no tender points around her left knee. she says pain is inside the joint and is worse when she walks up and down the stairs. Pain was induced when she flexed her left knee on the treatment table.

s/s: sightly nausea and st acid. no digestion problems.

tx: sp 3- kd 3 - lu 8 + there is no change.

shin guan 1.5 cun below sp 9 right side 1.5 in -- knee pain dispeared but dry eyes reminded the same.

she surely has some kidney problems. I will try KD 10 + next time in addition to tonifying kd points.

according to classic txt books, all bodily fluid is governed by kd and tear is assoicated with lv.

to be continued
