脉∶反胃噎膈，寸紧尺涩，紧芤或弦虚寒之厄，关沉有痰，浮涩脾积，浮弱虚气，涩小血弱，若涩而沉，七
情所搏。
夫膈噎翻胃之症，皆由七情太过而动五脏之火，熏蒸津液而痰益盛，脾胃渐衰，饮食不得流行，为膈、为噎
、为翻胃也。丹溪云∶年高者不治。盖年少之人，气血未虚，用药劫去痰，虽得暂愈，其病立复。所以然者，气
虚则不能运化而生痰，血虚则不能滋润而生火也。又云∶此症切不可用香燥之药而浓滋味。盖症属热燥，故不可
用香燥之药。香能散气，燥能耗血，浓滋味能助火而生痰也。粗工不识病源，但见斯疾，便以峻剂拨之而取刻效，
以图浓贿。不思病危，复而不救，可不叹哉！
大凡膈噎翻胃，不可服辛热香燥，最能耗血。粪如羊屎者不治，大肠无血故也。口吐白沫者不治，气血俱惫
故也。
翻胃者，胃虚吐食而不纳也。

Pulse: In cases of Fanwei (Revolving Stomach) and Yige (Choked Esophagus), if the Cun position is tight and the Chi position is choppy, or if a Kou (Hollow) or Xian (Wiry) pulse is present, it indicates a deficiency-cold condition. A Chen (Deep) pulse at the Guan position suggests phlegm; a Fu (Floating) and Choppy pulse indicates Spleen accumulation; a Fu and weak pulse signifies Qi deficiency; a Choppy and small pulse denotes Blood deficiency. If the pulse is both Choppy and Deep, it is caused by obstruction from the Seven Emotions.
Generally, the conditions of Ge (Diaphragm obstruction), Ye (Choking), and Fanwei (Revolving Stomach) arise from excessive emotional agitation stirring up Fire in the Five Zang organs. This heat steams body fluids, causing Phlegm to increase, while the Spleen and Stomach gradually weaken. Consequently, food and drink cannot circulate smoothly, leading to Ge, Ye, or Fanwei. Zhu Danxi stated: "Elderly patients are difficult to cure." This is because young people have not yet depleted their Qi and Blood. Although medication can temporarily expel Phlegm and provide relief, the disease will immediately recur. The reason is that Qi deficiency fails to transform fluids, generating Phlegm, while Blood deficiency fails to moisten, generating Fire. He further stated: "This condition must absolutely not be treated with aromatic-drying herbs or rich, greasy foods." Since the pathology involves Heat and Dryness, aromatic-drying herbs are contraindicated. Aromatic substances disperse Qi, drying substances consume Blood, and rich flavors assist Fire and generate Phlegm. Unskilled physicians, unaware of the disease's origin, seeing such ailments, use harsh agents to force immediate effects for profit. They fail to consider that when the patient is critically ill, even treatment may not save them. Is this not lamentable?
In general, for Ge, Ye, and Fanwei, one must not administer acrid-hot aromatic-drying medicines, as these most easily consume Yin Blood. Stool resembling sheep dung is an untreatable sign, due to the Large Intestine lacking Blood nourishment. Vomiting white foam is also untreatable, indicating exhaustion of both Qi and Blood.
Fanwei refers to the Stomach being deficient, vomiting food without accepting new intake.
