琥按上方。乃治太阳病得之八九日。而病仍在太阳。因作如疟等状。内台方议云。如疟状者。乃先发表不尽。风
寒之邪。留滞于经。不能即出。故面反有热色。身必作痒。用麻黄桂枝之复方减其剂。以取小汗。是总风寒而两解之也。
或问伤寒八九日如疟状。发热恶寒。热多寒少。其人不呕。则是病患前已作呕过矣。方其呕时。焉知非少阳柴胡证。
纵其人尚有太阳头项强痛之候。焉知其不与少阳合病邪。若然则吾子于何证辩之。予曰于寒热时辩之。少阳之寒热。必

作注。大谬之极。医人倘遇此证。于方药中宜权变取用。亦不可拘拘然但执一麻桂各半汤以投之也。

汗大出者。此出汗不得其法。所以中风之脉。本浮缓而反得洪大。可见病不除而风热愈盛。必再与桂枝汤如前法服之。

(This prescription is extracted from Volume 10 of the original *Shanghan Lun* and attached here.)
Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig) [1 liang 16 zhu, bark removed], Shaoyao (White Peony Root), Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger, sliced), Gancao (Licorice Root, honey-fried), Mahuang (Ephedrae Herba) [each 1 liang, nodes removed], Dazao (Jujubae Fructus) [4 pieces, torn open], Xingren (Prunus Armeniacae Semen] [24 pieces, soaked in hot water, skin and tips removed, excluding double-kernel ones].
The above seven herbs. Use five sheng of water. First boil Mahuang for one or two boils. Remove the foam on the surface. Add the remaining herbs. Boil to obtain one sheng eight he of decoction. Strain off the dregs. Take six he warm.
Hu notes: The above prescription treats Taiyang disease (disease syndrome caused by pathogenic factors invading the Taiyang channel) that has persisted for eight or nine days, with the pathogen still residing in the Taiyang channel, thereby presenting symptoms resembling malaria. The *Neitai Fangyi* states: "Symptoms resembling malaria" occur because the initial release of the exterior was incomplete, allowing Wind-Cold pathogens to stagnate in the channels without being expelled immediately. Consequently, the face appears flushed with heat, and the body itches. Using a combined formula of Mahuang Tang and Guizhi Tang but with reduced dosage induces slight sweating, thereby resolving both Wind and Cold pathogens simultaneously.
A question arises: In Shanghan (Cold Damage) after eight or nine days, if there are symptoms resembling malaria, with fever and aversion to cold, where heat predominates over cold, and the patient does not vomit. This implies the patient had previously experienced vomiting. At the time of vomiting, how can one rule out Shaoyang disease (disease syndrome caused by pathogenic factors invading the Shaoyang channel), specifically the Chaihu pattern? Even if the patient retains Taiyang symptoms such as stiffness and pain of the head and neck, how can one be sure it is not a concurrent Taiyang and Shaoyang disease? If so, upon what basis do you differentiate the diagnosis? I reply: Differentiation is based on the manifestation during chills and fever. In Shaoyang disease, chills must precede fever, or fever may be followed by chills. When chills arrive, there is invariably cold extremities, a bluish-white complexion, gooseflesh on the back, and severe rigors. When fever arrives, there is steaming heat in the head, face, hands, feet, limbs, chest, and back, everywhere hot, possibly with slight sweating, or even a desire to remove clothing and bedding. Heat comes while chills go; chills come while heat goes. This characterizes Shaoyang channel disease. However, in the current case, aversion to cold accompanies fever, heat exceeds cold, and the chills are mild. During the aversion to cold, the patient's face appears red and hot. Therefore, it is undoubtedly Taiyang disease. The *Shanglun Pian* annotates this as "alternating chills and fever," which is extremely erroneous. Physicians encountering this pattern should exercise flexibility in prescription selection and should not rigidly adhere solely to administering Mahuang Guizhi G Ban Tang.
(Attached subsequent example:) In Taiyang disease, if after the first administration of Guizhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction) vexation persists without relief, first puncture Fengchi (GB20) and Fengfu (GV16 acupoints), then administer Guizhi Tang, which will result in cure. (After taking Guizhi Tang, increased vexation and heat indicate that the Wind pathogen is strong and the herbal power cannot resolve it immediately. Thus, acupuncture is appropriate. Acupuncture methods and acupoint diagrams are found in Volume 14 later.)
If, after taking Guizhi Tang, there is profuse sweating and a surging pulse, administer Guizhi Tang according to the previous method. If the condition resembles malaria, occurring twice daily, resolution will follow sweating; Guizhi Er Mahuang Yi Tang (Guizhi Two Ephedra One Decoction) is indicated. (Profuse sweating after taking Guizhi Tang results from improper technique. The pulse for Wind-strike is originally floating and moderate, yet here it becomes surging, indicating that the pathogen remains and Wind-Heat intensifies. One must again administer Guizhi Tang as before, covering with blankets for about the duration of a meal until slight perspiration covers the whole body, at which point the illness will naturally heal. If the illness persists and resembles malaria, it is largely a pattern of excess heat and deficient cold, evidenced by the surging pulse. Occurring twice daily indicates shallow pathogen depth and impending dispersion. I believe this clause describes external Cold binding internal Wind-Heat, a pattern of simultaneous injury to Ying and Wei nutrients, where Wind pathogen predominates and Cold is minor. The treatment method should induce slight sweating; upon sweating, the disease resolves. Hence, Cheng Wuji's commentary states: Administer Guizhi Er Mahuang Yi Tang to disperse the pathogens in Ying and Wei.)
