Diagnostic Differentiation:

TCM:

The patient suffered finger shaking and unstable walking with poor balance for 12 years, which should be ¡°Bone-shaking¡± in the category of TCM. The ¡°Marrow Sea¡± of the patient had not been nourished for long time, and then the symptoms of finger fremitus and poor balance. The deficiency of kidney-yang led to erectile weakness. Long course of sickness led to deficiency of blood and qi, and then constipation happened. Besides, the patient suffered lumbar pains, which should be lumbago among the category of TCM. Because of sprain, he suffered pains over his back, and then he could not walk upright. The stasis of blood blocked the channels. There goes a saying: When the channels are blocked, pains happen. Therefore, his condition should be ¡°bone-shaking¡± due to un-nourishment of the ¡°Marrow Sea¡± and deficiency of blood and qi, as well as lumbago due to channel blockage by the blood stasis.

1. The patient suffered finger shaking, unstable walking and double vision for 12 years, being severe for one year. He also suffered pains over his back and legs for 2 weeks.  

2. Positive signs of the nervous system and medical history of sprain over his back.
