(Wei Qi (Defensive Qi) travels through the Yang meridians during the day and the Yin meridians at night. When traveling through the Yang, one is awake; when traveling through the Yin, one sleeps. If Yang Qi is deficient and Yin Qi is exuberant, the eyes close in sleep, indicating that the pathogenic factor has transmitted to the Yin rather than remaining in the Yang. The state of drowsiness with closed eyes is due to the Yin's function of closure. "Dan Yu Mei" (Desire to sleep but unable to stay fully awake) is the fundamental manifestation of Shaoyin disease (disease pattern of the Shaoyin channel), although there are also cases involving Heat.)
In Taiyang disease (disease pattern of the Taiyang channel) persisting for ten days, if the pulse is floating and fine and the patient desires to lie down, it indicates that the exterior syndrome has resolved. If chest fullness and hypochondriac pain occur, Xiao Chai Hu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) should be used (Note: This clause likely represents a combined Taiyang and Shaoyang disease). In Shaoyin disease, if there is "Dan Yu Mei," dry mouth, and dry throat, urgent purgation is required, using Da Cheng Qi Tang (Major Order the Qi Decoction). In Shaoyin disease, if there is a desire to vomit without actual vomiting, "Dan Yu Mei," spontaneous diarrhea after five or six days accompanied by thirst, it is due to Shaoyin deficiency, causing the patient to seek water for self-rescue. If the urine is clear and white, it indicates deficiency-cold in the Lower Jiao (Lower Burner), treated with Si Ni Tang (Frigid Extremities Decoction); if the urine is yellow-red and accompanied by thirst, Bai Tou Weng Tang (Pulsatilla Decoction) is used. In Feng Wen (Wind-Warmth disease), symptoms include sweating, heaviness of the body, snoring sleep, and difficulty speaking, treated with Wei Rui Tang (Polygonatum Decoction).
Note: Desire to lie down differs between Yin and Yang patterns. In Shaoyin disease, the pulse is faint and fine, with "Dan Yu Mei," curling up while lying, lying facing the wall, cold extremities, and heavy body; these are all Yin syndromes. Fu Zi Tang (Aconite Decoction) should be used to warm them. If heat is concealed internally, causing mental fatigue and drowsiness, Xiao Chai Hu Tang is indeed an essential formula.
(Qi rushes upward from the lower abdomen to the heart causing pain, resembling the charge of a wild boar, accompanied by palpitations below the umbilicus. This is often caused by improper sweating methods or moxibustion with needles.)
After inducing sweating in Taiyang disease, if there is palpitation below the umbilicus, it indicates impending Ben Tun (Rushing Pig - a condition where Qi rushes from the lower abdomen to the chest/heart), treated with Fu Ling Gui Zhi Gan Cao Da Zao Tang (Poria, Cinnamon Twig, Licorice, and Jujube Decoction). If moxibustion with needles was used to induce sweating, and the needle site became cold, resulting in red nodules, Ben Tun will definitely occur, with Qi rushing from the lower abdomen to the heart. Apply one moxa cone on each nodule, treated with Gui Zhi Jia Gui Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction plus Cinnamon Twig).
Note: Ben Tun is caused by the rebellious Qi of Shaoyin; it is not cured by simply using Rou Gui (Cinnamon Bark) to drain the pathogen.
If the pulse is slow and extremities are cold, diarrhea usually implies inability to eat. If the patient can unexpectedly eat, it is called Chu Zhong (Elimination of the Middle - a sign of stomach Qi exhaustion), which is incurable. There are two types of this symptom: one results from taking Huang Qin Tang (Scutellaria Decoction) or other cooling medicines improperly, leading to death; the other involves less heat and more cold extremities, where stomach Qi remains, making it treatable. This latter case is not caused by medication.
(Wan Bi refers to numbness without pain or itch sensation, caused by excessive sweating leading to deficiency of Ying Qi (Nutritive Qi) and Wei Qi, disharmony of Blood and Qi, and malnutrition of muscles.)
After sweating, even if near cotton wadding for warmth, the patient still experiences muscle twitching/spasms [text missing in original, inferred context], treated with Qiang Huo Chong He Tang (Notopterygium Harmonizing Decoction) added with Gui Zhi (Cinnamon Twig), Dang Gui (Angelica Sinensis), and Mu Xiang (Aucklandia Root).
