Li Guanguan (3 years old, duration of 3 months): Stomach cough causes the movement of parasites; parasite movement leads to vomiting. This is not like cough caused by phlegm obstructing lung qi. One will know this after reading "Ke Lun" (Treatise on Cough) in *Neijing* (The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine). The pulse is wiry, slippery, and floating on the right side. Treatment should focus on descending qi, calming liver, and regulating stomach.
