326. The syndrome of Jueyin disease (disease caused by pathogenic factors in the Jueyin meridian) manifests as Xiao Ke (excessive thirst and drinking), Qi rushing upward to strike the heart, pain and burning sensation in the heart region, hunger but no desire to eat, and vomiting of roundworms after eating. If purgation is mistakenly used, diarrhea will not cease.
327. In Jueyin Zhong Feng (Wind Strike in Jueyin), a slightly floating pulse indicates impending recovery; a non-floating pulse indicates that the disease has not yet healed.
328. The time when Jueyin disease tends to resolve is from Chou hour (1:00-3:00 AM) to Mao hour (5:00-7:00 AM).
329. For patients with Jueyin disease who are thirsty and desire water, giving a small amount of water will lead to recovery.
330. For all cases of Si Ni Jue (reversal coldness of the four limbs), purgation methods must not be used; this also applies to patients with deficiency.
331. In Shang Han (Cold Damage), if Jue (reversal coldness) appears first, followed by fever and diarrhea, the diarrhea will inevitably stop spontaneously; if Jue reappears, diarrhea will recur.
332. In Shang Han, there was initially fever for six days, followed by Jue for nine days with diarrhea. Generally, patients with Jue and diarrhea should be unable to eat; if they can eat, it may be Chu Zhong (false appetite due to exhaustion of Stomach Qi, also known as Xiao Zhong). Let the patient eat Suo Bing (noodle-like food). If there is no fever, it indicates that Stomach Qi is still present, and recovery is certain. One should fear sudden violent heat that appears and quickly disappears. If the pulse is checked two days later and the heat persists, recovery is expected at midnight the next day. The reason is that the initial fever lasted six days, Jue lasted nine days, and fever returned for three days; adding the previous six days makes nine days, corresponding to the duration of Jue, hence recovery is expected at midnight the next day. If the pulse is checked three days later and is rapid (Shu), and the heat does not subside, this indicates excess Heat Qi, which will inevitably lead to abscesses and suppuration.
333. In Shang Han, if the pulse is Chi (slow) for six or seven days, and Huang Qin Tang (Scutellaria Decoction) is mistakenly given to clear heat. A Chi pulse indicates Cold pattern; administering Huang Qin Tang again to clear heat should cause coldness in the abdomen and inability to eat; if the patient can eat instead, this is called Chu Zhong, and death is inevitable.
334. In Shang Han, if Jue occurs first followed by fever, diarrhea will inevitably stop spontaneously. If sweating occurs instead, with sore throat, this is Hou Bi (throat obstruction). If there is fever without sweating, diarrhea will inevitably stop; if it does not stop, there will inevitably be pus and blood in the stool. Those with pus and blood in the stool will also suffer from Hou Bi.
335. In Shang Han, if Jue occurs from one or two days to four or five days, fever will inevitably follow; if there was fever previously, Jue will inevitably follow later. Severe Jue corresponds to deep internal Heat; mild Jue corresponds to mild internal Heat. Jue syndromes (specifically Heat Jue) should be treated with purgation; if diaphoresis (sweating method) is mistakenly used, it will inevitably cause oral injury, erosion, and redness.
336. In Shang Han disease, if there is Jue for five days and fever for five days, Jue should recur on the sixth day; if Jue does not recur, the patient will recover spontaneously. Since Jue does not exceed five days and fever is also five days, spontaneous recovery is expected.
337. All cases of Jue are due to the failure of Yin and Yang Qi to connect smoothly, resulting in Jue. Jue refers to the symptom of Shou Zu Ni Leng (coldness of hands and feet).
338. In Shang Han, if the pulse is Wei (faint) and there is Jue, and by the seventh or eighth day the skin is cold, the patient is agitated with no moment of peace, this is Zang Jue (visceral Jue due to decline of visceral Yang Qi), not Hui Jue (roundworm Jue). Patients with Hui Jue should vomit roundworms. If the patient is quiet but occasionally annoyed, this indicates Cold in the viscera. Roundworms move up into the diaphragm, causing annoyance, which stops after a while; vomiting after eating and renewed annoyance occur because roundworms smell food and emerge, causing the patient to frequently vomit roundworms spontaneously. Hui Jue is treated with Wu Mei Wan (Mume Pill). This formula also treats Jiu Li (chronic diarrhea). Formula 1.
Wu Mei (300 pieces) Xi Xin (6 liang) Gan Jiang (10 liang) Huang Lian (16 liang)
Dang Gui (4 liang) Fu Zi (prepared, peeled, 6 liang) Shu Jiao (fried until oily, 4 liang) Gui Zhi (peeled, 6 liang) Ren Shen (6 liang) Huang Bai (6 liang)
The above ten ingredients are separately pounded and sifted, then mixed. Soak Wu Mei in Ku Jiu (vinegar) overnight, remove pits, steam under five dou of rice, mash the cooked rice into paste, and mix with the herbs. Place in a mortar, add honey, and pound 2,000 times. Form into pills the size of wutong seeds. Take 10 pills before meals with liquid, three times a day, gradually increasing to 20 pills. Avoid raw, cold, slippery, and foul-smelling foods.
339. In Shang Han, if Heat is slight and Jue is mild, with cold fingertips, silence, lack of desire to eat, and irritability, after several days, if urination is free and the color is white, this indicates that Heat has been eliminated. If the patient desires food, the disease will heal; if there is Jue with vomiting, and fullness and irritability in the chest and hypochondrium, there will inevitably be bloody stool later.
340. If the patient has cold hands and feet, states there is no Jie Xiong (chest binding), has lower abdominal fullness, and pain upon pressure, this indicates Cold accumulation in the Bladder and Guanyuan area.
341. In Shang Han, if there is fever for four days, Jue for three days, and fever again for four days. If Jue is less and Heat is more, the disease should heal; if heat does not subside from the fourth to the seventh day, there will inevitably be pus and blood in the stool.
342. In Shang Han, if there is Jue for four days, fever for only three days, and Jue again for five days, the disease is progressing. More Cold and less Heat indicate declining Yang Qi, hence the progression.
343. In Shang Han for six or seven days, with Wei (faint) pulse, cold hands and feet, and irritability, moxibustion on Jueyin points is indicated. If Jue does not resolve, death ensues.
344. In Shang Han, with fever, diarrhea, Jue Ni (reversal coldness), and agitation preventing sleep, death ensues.
345. In Shang Han, with fever, severe diarrhea, and unceasing Jue, death ensues.
346. In Shang Han, if there is no diarrhea for six or seven days, followed by fever and diarrhea, and incessant sweating, death ensues, due to the presence of Yin without Yang (Yin excess and Yang collapse).
347. In Shang Han for five or six days, without Jie Xiong, with a soft abdomen, Xu (deficient) pulse, and recurring Jue, purgation is contraindicated; this is Wang Xue (blood depletion), and purgation leads to death.
348. Fever with Jue, and diarrhea lasting seven days, is difficult to treat.
349. In Shang Han, with Cu (rapid or relaxed) pulse and Shou Zu Jue Ni (cold hands and feet), moxibustion is applicable. (Cu is also written as Zong in some versions.)
350. In Shang Han, with Hua (slippery) pulse and Jue, there is Internal Heat, treated with Bai Hu Tang (White Tiger Decoction). Formula 2.
Zhi Mu (6 liang) Shi Gao (crushed, wrapped in cotton, 1 jin) Gan Cao (roasted, 2 liang) Jing Mi (6 he)
The above four ingredients are boiled in 1 dou of water until the rice is cooked. Remove dregs after decoction. Take 1 sheng warm, three times a day.
351. For Shou Zu Jue Han (cold hands and feet) with Xi (fine) pulse nearing extinction, Dang Gui Si Ni Tang (Angelica Four Reversals Decoction) is indicated. Formula 3.
Dang Gui (3 liang) Gui Zhi (peeled, 3 liang) Shao Yao (3 liang) Xi Xin (3 liang) Gan Cao (roasted, 2 liang) Tong Cao (2 liang)
Da Zao (broken, 25 pieces. Another method: 12 pieces)
The above seven ingredients are boiled in 8 sheng of water to obtain 3 sheng. Remove dregs. Take 1 sheng warm, three times a day.
352. If the patient has long-standing internal Cold, Dang Gui Si Ni Jia Wu Zhu Yu Sheng Jiang Tang (Angelica Four Reversals Decoction plus Evodia and Ginger) is suitable. Formula 4.
Dang Gui (3 liang) Shao Yao (3 liang) Gan Cao (roasted, 2 liang) Tong Cao (2 liang)
Gui Zhi (peeled, 3 liang) Xi Xin (3 liang) Sheng Jiang (sliced, 0.5 jin) Wu Zhu Yu (2 sheng) Da Zao (broken, 25 pieces)
The above nine ingredients are boiled in 6 sheng of water and 6 sheng of clear wine to obtain 5 sheng. Remove dregs. Divide into five warm doses. (Another formula: 4 sheng each of water and wine.)
353. Profuse sweating, persistent heat, internal cramping pain, limb pain, accompanied by diarrhea, Jue Ni, and aversion to cold, are treated with Si Ni Tang (Four Reversals Decoction). Formula 5.
Gan Cao (roasted, 2 liang) Gan Jiang (1.5 liang) Fu Zi (raw, peeled, broken into 8 pieces, 1 piece)
The above three ingredients are boiled in 3 sheng of water to obtain 1 sheng and 2 he. Remove dregs. Divide into two warm doses. For strong individuals, one large Fu Zi and 3 liang of Gan Jiang may be used.
354. Profuse sweating, or severe diarrhea with Jue Leng (cold limbs), are treated with Si Ni Tang. Formula 6. (Use Formula 5 above.)
355. If the patient has cold hands and feet, and the pulse suddenly becomes Jin (tight), pathogenic factors are accumulated in the chest. With fullness below the heart, irritability, hunger but inability to eat, the disease is in the chest. Emesis (vomiting method) is required, suitable with Gua Di San (Melon Stem Powder). Formula 7.
Gua Di Chi Xiao Dou
The above two ingredients, in equal parts, are separately pounded and sifted, mixed in a mortar, and processed further.
Separately, take 1 he of Xiang Chi, boil with 7 he of hot water into a thin gruel; remove dregs, mix the juice with 1 qian bi of the powder, and take it warm in one dose. If vomiting does not occur, increase the dose slightly; stop when rapid vomiting is achieved. Gua Di San is contraindicated for those with blood loss or deficiency.
356. In Shang Han, with Jue and palpitations below the heart, treat Water retention first by taking Fu Ling Gan Cao Tang (Poria and Licorice Decoction), then treat Jue. Otherwise, Water will infiltrate the Stomach, inevitably causing diarrhea. Fu Ling Gan Cao Tang. Formula 8.
Fu Ling (2 liang) Gan Cao (roasted, 1 liang) Sheng Jiang (sliced, 3 liang) Gui Zhi (peeled, 2 liang)
The above four ingredients are boiled in 4 sheng of water to obtain 2 sheng. Remove dregs. Divide into three warm doses.
357. In Shang Han for six or seven days, after severe purgation, if the Cun pulse is Chen (deep) and Chi (slow), with Shou Zu Jue Ni, absence of lower body pulse, unfavorable throat, spitting pus and blood, and incessant diarrhea, it is difficult to treat. Ma Huang Sheng Ma Tang (Ephedra and Cimicifuga Decoction) is indicated. Formula 9.
Ma Huang (nodes removed, 2.5 liang) Sheng Ma (1 liang 1 fen) Dang Gui (1 liang 1 fen) Zhi Mu (18 zhu) Huang Qin (18 zhu)
Wei Rui (also known as Chang Pu, 18 zhu) Shao Yao (6 zhu) Tian Men Dong (core removed, 6 zhu) Gui Zhi (peeled, 6 zhu) Fu Ling (6 zhu)
Gan Cao (roasted, 6 zhu) Shi Gao (crushed, wrapped in cotton, 6 zhu) Bai Zhu (6 zhu) Gan Jiang (6 zhu)
The above fourteen ingredients are boiled in 1 dou of water. First boil Ma Huang for one or two boils, remove the foam, add other herbs, and boil to obtain 3 sheng. Remove dregs. Divide into three warm doses. The interval between doses should be about the time it takes to cook 3 dou of rice. Finish the medication. Recovery occurs upon sweating.
358. In Shang Han for four or five days, if there is abdominal pain and a sensation of Qi moving downward toward the lower abdomen, this indicates impending spontaneous diarrhea.
359. In Shang Han, originally with Cold diarrhea, if the physician uses emesis and purgation again, causing Han Ge (Cold rejection), further violating the treatment principles; if food is vomited immediately upon entering the mouth, Gan Jiang Huang Qin Huang Lian Ren Shen Tang (Dried Ginger, Scutellaria, Coptis, and Ginseng Decoction) is indicated. Formula 10.
Gan Jiang Huang Qin Huang Lian Ren Shen (3 liang each)
The above four ingredients are boiled in 6 sheng of water to obtain 2 sheng. Remove dregs. Divide into two warm doses.
360. Diarrhea with slight heat and thirst, and a Ruo (weak) pulse, will now heal spontaneously.
361. Diarrhea with Shu (rapid) pulse, slight heat, and sweating, will now heal spontaneously; if the pulse becomes Jin (tight) again, the disease is not resolved. (Another version: if the pulse is Floating and becomes Tight.)
362. Diarrhea, cold hands and feet, and absence of pulse: if moxibustion does not warm the limbs, and the pulse does not return, but slight panting occurs instead, death ensues; if Shaoyin pulse (Taixi) is weaker than Fuyang pulse (Chongyang), it is a favorable sign.
363. Diarrhea, with Cun pulse unexpectedly Fu (floating) and Shu (rapid), and Chi pulse naturally Se (choppy), will inevitably result in pus and blood in the stool.
364. Diarrhea with Qing Gu (undigested food in stool): releasing the Exterior (diaphoresis) is contraindicated; sweating will inevitably cause abdominal distension.
365. Diarrhea: if the pulse is Chen (deep) and Xian (wiry), there is Tenesmus (heavy sensation in the rectum); if the pulse is Da (large), diarrhea has not stopped; if the pulse is Wei (faint), Ruo (weak), and Shu (rapid), diarrhea is about to stop spontaneously; even with fever, there is no danger of death.
366. Diarrhea with Chen (deep) and Chi (slow) pulse, slight redness of the face, slight body heat, and Qing Gu diarrhea: resolution will occur through Yu Mao (dizziness and cloudiness) and sweating. The patient will have slight Jue. This is because of Dai Yang (floating Yang on the face) and Lower Deficiency.
367. Diarrhea with Shu (rapid) pulse and thirst will now heal spontaneously; if not, there will inevitably be pus and blood in the stool, due to the presence of Heat.
368. After diarrhea, if the pulse is absent and hands and feet are cold, life is preserved if the pulse returns and hands and feet become warm after some time; if the pulse does not return, death ensues.
369. In Shang Han, if diarrhea occurs more than ten times a day and the pulse is unexpectedly Shi (full/excess), death ensues.
370. Diarrhea with Qing Gu, Internal Cold and External Heat, sweating and Jue, are treated with Tong Mai Si Ni Tang (Channel-Unblocking Four Reversals Decoction). Formula 11.
Gan Cao (roasted, 2 liang) Fu Zi (raw, peeled, broken into 8 pieces, 1 large piece) Gan Jiang (3 liang, 4 liang for strong individuals)
The above three ingredients are boiled in 3 sheng of water to obtain 1 sheng and 2 he. Remove dregs. Divide into two warm doses. Recovery occurs if the pulse emerges immediately.

372. Diarrhea with abdominal distension and body pain: warm the Interior first, then release the Exterior. For warming the Interior, Si Ni Tang is suitable; for releasing the Exterior, Gui Zhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction) is suitable. Formula 13.
(Si Ni Tang uses Formula 5 above.)

373. Diarrhea with desire to drink water is due to Heat, treated with Bai Tou Weng Tang. Formula 14. (Use Formula 12 above.)
374. Diarrhea with Zhan Yu (delirium) indicates Dry Stool, suitable with Xiao Cheng Qi Tang (Minor Order the Qi Decoction). Formula 15.
