About 10 years ago, I started to feel pain all over my body. My muscles and joints were swollen. The TCM doctor said it was because of my overactive immune system, and the specialist told me I had severe rheumatoid arthritis. My fingers, shoulders and back were swollen. It was so bad that I was in constant pain and couldn't sleep well at night. Later, I took medication to pacify my hyperactive immune system, and the progression of my arthritis and finger deformation slowed down. However, my health continued to deteriorate. Then, my mother passed away, and my deep sadness worsened my overall condition.
