TCM

Years ago I did a self assessment questionnaire in "Between Heaven and Earth. A guide to Chinese Medicine".
The results going round were.......
Fire (heart) 35
Earth (spleen) 13
Metal (lung) -4
Water (kidney) 32
Wood (liver) -47
which must suggest lack of harmony (unsurprisingly) a f*ck*d liver system and low kidney energy. Fire, being overdominant and unrestrained by water, leads to insomnia etc etc etc. perhaps the liver could do with some tonification? Bupleurum?
Is it possible to say anything intelligent about this?
A quote from the relevant passage is interesting, mentioning confusion about boundaries, merging with surroundings, difficulty knowing who you are, and mentions this as being reflective of a distorted heart/lung relationship, which, you can observe above, is.........what does the f*ck*ng liver system do anyway? I'm going to have to read and understand this wretched book.
