Patient: 60 years old, suffers from hypertension and diabetes for 30 years. Notes vision deterioration (cannot read). Blood pressure is poorly controlled; over the last 30 years, it usually ranged from 150/100 to 170/110. When the patient came to Infra Life clinic, blood pressure consistently stayed at 160-170/110 despite maximum doses of prazosin, nifedipine, and enalapril. Diastolic pressure has not decreased below 90 for the last 20 years. For diabetes, the patient takes high doses of glibenclamide and metformin.
RT Course: Main emitters used - GI, ZB, KL, and AK.
Result: Blood pressure significantly reduced and stabilized, often maintaining at 130/80 in the early morning, 120-130/70. Prazosin intake was ceased, and the doses of the other two hypertension medications were halved. Vision improved remarkably, allowing the patient to read again. Peripheral neuropathy in the toes diminished by 90%. Lost 9 kg (while simultaneously following a diet). Physical condition improved, can now walk for half an hour without feeling tired. No side effects were noted.
Note: Improvement in physical condition and weight loss are considered positive side effects observed in most patients.
