Take the original formula, add Pig Bile Decoction (Zhu Danzhi Tang), and mix them to take together.
It is indicated for cases where vomiting and diarrhea have ceased, but sweating occurs accompanied by cold limbs (Jue), and the stiffness and cramping of the four limbs cannot be relieved. According to the method of Zhang Zhongjing, if there was both vomiting and diarrhea, followed by free urination, profuse sweating, and a pulse that is faint and nearly imperceptible, this decoction is the primary treatment. Although vomiting and diarrhea have stopped, the body fluids (Jinye) have already been depleted. Furthermore, with the addition of sweating, the fluids become even more exhausted, and the internal cold becomes severe, causing the sinews and vessels to contract and cramp. Without using Sini Tang (Frigid Extremities Decoction) to warm the meridians and restore yang, how can life be saved? The addition of pig bile serves as an aid in guiding the medicine to the affected area. It is likely that Ginseng Ren Shen is also indispensable.
Obtain the crotch part of a woman's undergarment near the genitalia, cut it off, burn it to ash, mix with water, and administer one fangcun bi (a measure equivalent to about 2-3 grams or a spoonful) per dose. Take three times a day. When urination becomes smooth, the patient will recover. If slight swelling of the glans penis occurs, it also indicates recovery. For men suffering from this condition, obtain the crotch part of a man's undergarment, burn it to ash, and administer.
It is indicated for Yin-Yang Yi Disease (Exchange of Yin and Yang), characterized by heavy body, shortness of breath, urgency and pain in the lower abdomen radiating to the genitalia with cramping, sensation of heat rushing upward, heaviness of the head, blurred vision, and stiffness/cramping of the knees and calves.
Regarding the mechanism of Yin-Yang Yi disease, only the crotch of the undergarment is close to the hidden areas, where the qi has been熏蒸 (fumigated/permeated). Therefore, it is still used to treat ailments related to sexual intercourse, reflecting the principle that "if bamboo is broken, it must be repaired with bamboo."
Zhi Shi (Immature Bitter Orange), Zhi Zi (Gardenia Fruit), Chi Xiao Dou (Fermented Soybean)
It is indicated for recurrence due to overexertion after a major illness has healed; this decoction is the primary treatment. If there is retained food (Su Shi), add a small amount of Da Huang (Rhubarb Root). After a major illness, the body is invariably deficient. Moreover, if recurrence is caused by overexertion, the deficiency is compounded by injury. In ancient times, using a single herb of Ginseng Ren Shen to support the healthy qi (Zheng Qi), decocted heavily and taken in one dose, could cure the condition. I have tested this repeatedly with consistent results. However, this formula is harshly cold and draining; it is suitable only for those with strong constitution and forceful pulse. If mistakenly administered to those with weak pulse and mental fatigue, does it not violate the prohibition against making the deficient even more deficient (Xu Xu)?
Mu Li (Oyster Shell), Ze Xie (Alisma Rhizome), Shu Qi (Euphorbia Humifusa Whole Plant), Gua Lou Gen (Trichosanthes Root), Ting Li Zi (Descurainia Seed), Shang Lu Gen (Phytolacca Root), Hai Zao (Sargassum Thallus)
It is indicated for water retention (Shui Qi) below the waist after a major illness has healed. After a major illness, the spleen and stomach qi are deficient and unable to control water metabolism, causing water to accumulate in the lower jiao (Lower Burner), resulting in edema of the lower extremities. The treatment method should be to purify the bladder (Jing Ji Fu). The salty nature of Mu Li, Ze Xie, and Hai Zai helps to drain water qi; the sour and pungent nature of Shu Qi, Ting Li Zi, Gua Lou, and Shang Lu helps to guide out swelling and dampness.
Zhu Ye (Bamboo Leaf), Shi Gao (Gypsum Fibrosum), Ban Xia (Pinellia Tuber), Ren Shen (Ginseng Root), Gan Cao (Licorice Root), Jing Mi (Rice), Mai Men Dong (Ophiopogon Tuber)
It is indicated for cases after the resolution of Cold Damage (Shang Han), characterized by emaciation and weakness, shortness of breath, and rebellious qi leading to nausea/vomiting. This decoction is appropriate. The sweet and pungent nature of Zhu Ye, Shi Gao, and Gan Cao helps to dissipate residual heat; the sweet and neutral nature of Mai Men Dong, Ren Shen, and Jing Mi helps to nourish the true yuan (True Origin); Ban Xia, being pungent and neutral, is good at dispersing rebellious qi and stopping vomiting.
