Discussion: The Spleen and Stomach are exteriorly-interiorly related, jointly responsible for the digestion and transformation of food and fluids. Currently, due to deficiency of Qi in the Spleen and Stomach, food and fluids fail to be properly digested. The retained fluid clashes with the undigested food, causing empty distension in the Stomach. The Qi rebels upward, resulting in food being vomited after a long stay in the stomach; hence it is named "Wei Fan" (Stomantic Reflux/Regurgitation). Its manifestations include vomiting morning food in the evening or evening food in the morning, alternating chills and fever, epigastric fullness and obstruction feeling as if an inverted cup were placed there.
