[Hai Zang] Vomiting and diarrhea accompanied by muscle cramps (Zhuanjin), fever, and a long pulse indicate a primary disease of the Yangming channel. It is appropriate to harmonize the middle jiao. Sijunzi Tang (Four Gentlemen Decoction), Pingwei San (Stomach-Pacifying Powder), or Jianzhong Tang (Middle-Builder Decoction) may be used. Take one liang per dose with three zhan of water, five slices of ginger, decocted to one zhan. Strain and take warm. If vomiting and diarrhea with cramps are accompanied by spontaneous sweating and a floating pulse, treat with Sijunzi Tang plus Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig) five qian. If vomiting and diarrhea with cramps involve pain in the hypochondrium and a wiry pulse, Jianzhong Tang plus Mugua (Chaenomeles Fruit) and Chaihu (Bupleurum Root) is suitable. Alternatively, Pingwei San plus Mugua five qian may be used.
Guizhi (2.5 liang) Shaoyao (3 liang) Gancao (1 liang) Jiaoyi (half sheng) Shengjiang (1.5 liang) Dazao (6 pieces)
Mugua (5 qian) Chaihu (5 qian)
Crush the herbs to the size of hemp seeds. Take one liang per dose with three zhan of water, boil to one and a half zhan, strain, add two spoons of Jiaoyi (Malt Sugar), melt, and take. If after vomiting and diarrhea there is urinary retention and solid pain in the stomach, treat with Sijunzi Tang plus Dahuang (Rhubarb Root) one liang. If vomiting and diarrhea with cramps involve abdominal pain, heavy body sensation, and a deep, fine pulse, treat with Sijunzi Tang plus Shaoyao and Gaoliangjiang (Galangal Rhizome). For Sijunzi Tang, each of the four ingredients is one liang; Shaoyao and Gaoliangjiang are each five qian. Decoct as previously described. If Huoluan (Epidemic Vomiting and Diarrhea) presents with limb stiffness and urgency, and a deep, slow pulse, treat with Sijunzi Tang plus Shengjiang, Fuzi (Aconite Lateralis Radix Praeparata), and Houpo (Magnolia Bark). The four ingredients of Sijunzi Tang are each one liang; Shengjiang, Fuzi, and Houpo (processed) are each three qian. Decoct and take as previously described.
If vomiting and diarrhea with cramps present with cold limbs and a faint, slow pulse, treat with Jianzhong Tang plus Fuzi and Danggui (Angelica Sinensis).
Guizhi (1 liang) Danggui (2 qian) Shaoyao (2 liang) Gancao (0.5 liang) Jiaoyi (half sheng) Shengjiang (1 liang)
Fuzi (3 qian, processed) Dazao (6 pieces)
Decoct and take as previously described.
[Huoren Shu] Xiangru San (Elsholtzia Powder) treats atypical Huoluan with severe thirst, irritability, sweating, cramps, and unbearable pain. (Formula see Shanghan Vomiting and Diarrhea Section.)
[Danxi] Regulate the six fu organs. For Huoluan with more diarrhea than vomiting, thirst, and leg cramps:
Huashi (Talcum) (3 qian) Baizhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome) (2 qian) Cangzhu (Atractylodes Lancea Rhizome) Houpo Chenpi (Citrus Reticulatae Pericarpium) (each 1.5 qian) Gancao (Licorice Root) (a little, honey-fried) Mutong (Akebia Caulis) (1 qian) Jiang (Ginger) (5 slices)
Follow with Baohe Wan (Harmonizing the Stomach Pill) forty pills.
[Bencao] For Huoluan with cramps, drinking decoction of Xiangru (Elsholtzia Herb) ensures recovery.
[Zhouhou Beiji Fang] Treat Huoluan with heart and abdominal pain, irritability, and shortness of breath, before vomiting or purging occurs. If cramps develop, roast twenty Zhizi (Gardenia Fruit), grind to powder, and take with cooked water.
[Baoming Ji] For Huoluan with cramps and incessant vomiting and diarrhea, Banxia Tang (Pinellia Decoction) is suitable.
Banxiaqu (Pinellia Fermented) Fuling (Poria) Baizhu (each 0.5 liang) Gancao (honey-fried)
Grind to powder. Take with cool water if thirsty, warm water if not, at any time. If vomiting and diarrhea persist without sweating, combine with Jiangshui San (Fermented Rice Water Powder) from the Dysentery section plus Guizhi Tang, or use Baizhu Tang.
[Zhizhi Fang] Mugua Tang (Chaenomeles Decoction) treats Huoluan with vomiting, diarrhea, cramps, and restlessness.
Mugua (2 liang) Huixiang (Fennel Fruit) (2.5 qian, lightly stir-fried) Gancao (honey-fried, 2 qian) Wuzhuyu (Evodia Fruit) (washed and dried seven times, 2 liang)
Chop finely. Take four qian per dose with one and a half zhan of water, five slices of ginger, and a few Wu Mei (Mume Fruit). Decoct, warm, and take.
[Huoren Shu] For Huoluan with cramps, use Lizhong Tang (Middle-Warmer Decoction) removing Baizhu, adding one raw Fuzi. (Lizhong Tang formula see Shanghan.)
[Bencao] For Huoluan with incessant vomiting/diarrhea and cramps unresponsive to other medicines, use Yili Qingjindan (One Grain Green Gold Pill).
Huangshi (Sulfur) (1 liang, ground) Shuiyin (Mercury) (8 qian)
Stir-fry these two ingredients in a ding vessel, stirring constantly with a willow spatula. Frequently spray with cold vinegar using a willow branch until the color resembles iron and it forms green-gold clumps. Scrape down, grind to powder. Keep a small portion as powder. Mix the remainder with three rice dumpling tips and about half a zhan of vinegar to form a paste, then roll into pills the size of chicken beans, coated with Zhusha (Cinnabar). Take one pill per dose, dissolved in Dingxiang (Clove) decoction, taken hot. If taking powder, mix one qian with Dingxiang decoction. For Shanghan with yin-yang intermingling, dissolve with Longnao (Borneolum Syntheticum) and cold water, take two to three times daily.
[Meishi] Treat Huoluan with cramps. Insert a amount of Zaojiao (Gleditsia Sinensis Fruit) powder equivalent to a small bean into the nose to induce sneezing for cure.
[Gujin Lu Yan Fang] Treat Huoluan with cramps. Take a handful of Liaohua (Polygonum Flaccidum Flower), remove both ends, boil in two and a half sheng of water to one and a half sheng, and take in one dose.
[Shiliao Bencao] For cramps after vomiting, drinking boiled Mugua juice is very effective.
[Waitai Miyao] Treat Huoluan with persistent dysentery and cramps entering the abdomen causing near-death state. Crush three liang of ginger, boil in one sheng of wine for three to four boils, and take in one dose.
[World Transmission] Huoluan symptoms: mild cases present with upper vomiting and lower diarrhea, and calf cramps; severe cases present with whole-body cramps, abdominal pain, and cold limbs approaching death. In emergencies, moxa should be applied to the umbilicus, and washed with decoction of Liaohua. Subsequently administer Jiangfu (Ginger and Aconite) or Lizhong Tang. Cases with a surging pulse are easy to treat; those with a faint pulse, retracted kidneys, and curled tongue are untreatable.
[World Transmission] For Huoluan with cramps, moxa Chengshan (BL57). (Twenty-seven moxa cones, miraculous effect.) Another method for wind-stroke also uses Chengshan.
[Dongyuan] For Huoluan with cramps in the arms and chest center, where tendons are stiff and immobile: Danzhong (CV17), Zhongfu (LU1), Juque (CV14), Weiwuan (ST19), ChiZe (LU5), Taiyin (SP6). Moxa seven cones.
[Jiayi Jing) Huoluan with cramps: Jinmen (GB63), Pucan (BL60), Chengshan (BL57), Chengjin (BL56) govern this condition.
