Hi All!
Well, I have developed a few new symptoms in my ever breaking down body. The most recent? Flushed Cheeks. This has been happening for a few weeks now for no obvious reason. It goes a bit with the night leg cramps I had a few weeks back (did I tell ya'll about that? Read on the internet it happens in the middle-aged. Stupid internet! :) ) and is in the ever running list of things I find going haywire in my bodily system. Since my mom is very concerned about this, she began her internet search to find out what it could be. Pretty soon she was laughing out loud.
"Hey Jenn, what is it Jill says you have?"
"What?!?!?!"
"You know, Jill says you have something in you that makes you attract all sorts of weird things, situations, people....what is it?"
"Yang, mom. Jill always says it's my Yang."
More laughing.
Here's what she found:
Heart Yin Deficiency
Signs:
PALPITATIONS, Heart Qi affected
INSOMNIA, (wakes in night too) Heart Blood Deficient
MENTAL RESTLESSNESS, Heart Blood Deficient
easily startled, poor memory, Heart Blood Deficient
anxiety, uneasiness, fidgeting Heart Blood Deficient
FEELINGS OF HEAT, esp. in evening Heart Yin Deficient
or low grade fever, MALAR FLUSH Heart Yin Deficient
NIGHT SWEATING, Heart Yin Deficient
dry mouth and throat, Heart Yin Deficient
5 palm heat. Heart Yin Deficient
Tongue: Red, no coating,
tip redder, maybe swollen, with red Points
deep midline crack reaching the tip. Yin Deficiency
Heart area
Heart pattern
Pulse: fine and rapid or floating-empty and rapid Yin Deficiency
Etiology:
Chronic anxiety, worry, very busy lifestyle can damage Yin and cause Yin Deficiency. If there are also deep emotional problems with anxiety, Shen becomes disturbed and Heart Yin Deficiency develops. Very common in the West.

So, if I'm deficient, how do I get my Yin back? If you guys see my Yin....please let me know I'm missing it and would like it back, so these weird heat flashes in my face go away. Thanks! :)
