Abstract
Objective : The thyrotoxic periodic paralysis mainly appears in case of hyperthyroidism and the amyotonia is the characteristic main symptom. Through the deteriorated case and treatment by oriental medicine, the purpose of this research is to study the change of symptoms and the treatment effect for one case of a thyrotoxic periodic paralysis patient. Methods and Results: The treatment was carried out with oriental medicine as a main treatment and by the oriental medicinally deteriorated case, acupuncture treatment, moxibustion treatment and herbal medicine treatment were used as the main treatment methods. Also based on the symptoms which could appear with hyperthyroidism, the changes of symptoms were evaluated once a day with 4 levels of subjective scales that the patient was feeling, by dividing with 4 aspects of totalis symptoms, cardiovascular symptoms, musculoskeletal symptoms and other symptoms. In addition, it was shown that through the continuous hematologic test, the subjective and objective symptoms were mostly decreased during the treatment periods by comparing with the objective thyroid hormone (T3, T4, TSH) levels and the electrolyte levels. Conclusion : With this result, it was considered that oriental medicinal treatment was very effective for the thyrotoxic periodic paralysis through the oriental medicinally deteriorated case.
