Shenting (GV24), for treating epilepsy where the patient does not recognize people. With bleating sounds like a sheep. (Recorded in *Ming Yi Zhi Zhang* regarding epilepsy.) Baihui (GV20), for treating wind epilepsy. Including Qingfeng and Xinfeng. Symptoms include opisthotonos, bleating like a sheep, excessive crying, inappropriate speech. Upon onset, death may occur immediately; with foaming at the mouth, mental heat and oppression. It also treats head wind, somnolence with irritability, palpitations with lack of strength, forgetfulness, loss of taste, heavy head. After drinking alcohol, redness of the face and nasal congestion. *Ming Yi Zhi Zhang* also mentions treating climbing high and singing, discarding clothes and running, opisthotonos, and sheep epilepsy with tongue protrusion. Baihui (GV20) is also used to treat wind epilepsy, stroke-induced opisthotonos, excessive crying, inappropriate speech, irregular onset, severe foaming at the mouth, irritability, and palpitations. (*Tongren Shuxue Zhenjiu Tujing*)
Shenting (GV24), Sizhukong (TE23) (see dizziness), for treating wind epilepsy. Symptoms include eyes rolling upward and failure to recognize people. Jueque (CV14), for treating mental oppression from wind-heat and wind epilepsy. Incoherent speech or making bird-like sounds, inability to eat, lack of vital energy. Huizong (SI6), for treating skin and muscle pain, deafness, wind epilepsy. Jizhong (GV9) (see mania), Yongquan (KI1), for treating wind epilepsy. Qian Ding (GV21), for treating wind epilepsy. (*Ming Yi Zhi Zhang*) Shangwan (CV13), for treating wind epilepsy with heat and pain. Method: drain first, then tonify. Dazhui (GV14) [Note: Text says Ji Shu, likely referring to back shu points or specifically Dazhui contextually], for treating wind epilepsy and manic evil. Meichong (EX-HN3), for treating five types of eye-related epilepsy, headache, nasal congestion. Yongquan (KI1), Shencang (EX-HN5) (see head wind), Jiangjian (GV19) (as stated by Qibo), for treating wind epilepsy. Tianjing (TE10), for treating epilepsy with bleating and tongue protrusion. Epilepsy is a malignant disease in children; it strikes within a breath, leaving no time to seek a master, causing many to die in distress. (Lower section records)

For pediatric pig-type epilepsy (Zhu Xian): Resembles corpse-like rigidity (Si Jue), foaming at the mouth. Moxibustion on Jueque (CV14), 3 moxa cones.
For pediatric chicken-type epilepsy (Ji Xian): Prone to fright, body arching backward, arm spasms and shaking. Moxibustion on the Heart Meridian of Hand-Shaoyin, 5 moxa cones. Location: 0.5 cun posterior to the wrist crease in the depression.
For pediatric sheep-type epilepsy (Yang Xian): Staring eyes, tongue protrusion, bleating. Moxibustion between the segments below the 9th thoracic vertebra, 3 moxa cones.
For pediatric cow-type epilepsy (Niu Xian): Staring straight ahead, abdominal distension, followed by onset. Moxibustion on Jiuwei (CV15), 3 moxa cones.
For pediatric horse-type epilepsy (Ma Xian): Mouth open, head shaking, body arching backward, neighing. Moxibustion on Pucan (BL63), 3 moxa cones on each side. For Ma Xian with mouth open, head shaking, neighing, and tendency to arch backward: Moxibustion on Fengfu (GV16) in the neck and Zhongwan (CV12)/Shenque (CV8 - Note: Text says Qi Zhong, usually Shenque CV8) 3 moxa cones each. (*Qian Jin Fang*: Burning horse hooves into powder and administering is effective.)
For Niu Xian: Straight staring, abdominal distension. Moxibustion on Jiuwei bone and Dazhui (GV14), 3 moxa cones each. (*Qian Jin Fang*: Burning cow hooves into powder and administering is effective.)
For Yang Xian: Likes to widen eyes and protrude tongue. Moxibustion 3 cun above Dazhui (GV14), 3 moxa cones.
For Zhu Xian: Likes to foam at the mouth. Moxibustion 1 cun lateral to Wanggu (GB12) on both sides, 7 moxa cones.
For Dog Xian: Hands curled into fists and contracted. Moxibustion on Laogong (PC8) of both hands and Lubiao (BL62? Note: Text says Zu Tai Yang Lu Hu, likely referring to specific bladder meridian points near ribs/shoulders, often interpreted as specific local points or errors in transcription, but literally "Foot Taiyang Rib Door") 1 moxa cone each.
For Ji Xian: Head shaking, body arching backward, prone to fright and self-shaking. Moxibustion on all Yang meridians of the foot, 3 moxa cones each.
Shenting (GV24), Ji Shu (likely Dazhui GV14 or Back Shu points), for treating wind epilepsy. (See Jing Xian).
Qian Ding (GV21), for treating pediatric jing xian and feng xian. (*Tongren* see Dian Xian).
When a child's illness manifests with qi rushing upward, crying or laughing, dark complexion without color change, these are signs of epilepsy. Or slight fright when nose and mouth turn blue, or slight fright when eyes close and turn blue, or body heat with constant sweating on the head, or body heat with vomiting and panting, or body heat with intermittent staring, or waking up startled and trembling during sleep with shaking limbs, or dreaming and laughing during sleep with limb movement, or sudden anger due to internal fear, or difficulty swallowing milk, or pupils suddenly becoming larger and darker than usual, or frequent yawning with eyes looking up, or body heat with difficult urination, or body heat with unfocused gaze, or continuous vomiting and diarrhea, intermittent cold extremities and pain, or playing with tongue and shaking head. These twenty conditions are all early stages of epilepsy. Upon seeing these signs, scratch the corresponding acupoints of the Yang meridians with nails for moxibustion. Scratch firmly to make the child cry suddenly, until the pulse at the feet becomes imperceptible. Alternatively, administer decoctions based on the pattern. If there is staring with moving pupils, abdominal fullness with rumbling and bloody stool, body heat with locked jaw unable to suckle, opisthotonos with stiff spine, sweating with fever, coma/unresponsiveness, limb spasms, and fright—these eight conditions represent severe epilepsy. If these occur, decoctions and scratching cannot save them; immediate moxibustion is required.
Xu Sibai said: The disease of Wind-Xuan originates from deficiency of Heart Qi, with accumulation of heat and excess in the chest. Phlegm-heat interacts to stir wind. Wind and Heart Qi confuse each other, leading to oppression and confusion (Mao). Hence it is called Wind-Xuan Mao. In adults, this is called Dian; in children, it is called Xian. This formula treats it, with no failure. In emergencies, measure the moxa points, needle with a large needle, and there will be no cure that fails. Moxibustion immediately after needling is best. I have practiced this for over thirty years, saving thousands. Those who died did so because they did not meet me. (Xuming Tang governs dizziness attacks, sudden fainting with loss of consciousness, foaming at the mouth, four-limb opisthotonos, eyes rolling up, locked jaw unable to speak. Formula: Bamboo sap 1 sheng 2 he, Fresh Rehmannia juice 1 sheng, Dragon Tooth powder, Fresh Ginger, Fangfeng, Ephedrae Herba (Mahuang, 麻黄) de-nodeled, each 4 liang; Podocarpus Root Bark (Fangji), Prepared Aconite Root (Fuzi, 附子), each 3 liang; Gypsum Fibrosum (Shigao, 石膏) 10 liang; Cinnamon Twig (Guizhi, 桂枝) 2 liang. Ten ingredients, boil in 1 dou of water to obtain 3 sheng, divide into three doses. Add 1 liang Fuzi, 5 he Zi Su, 0.5 liang Chenpi if Qi stagnation exists.) His discussion on Wind-Xuan and Dian/Xian is very reasonable, so I attach his formula here. (There is also Ben Tun Tang, see *Qian Jin*). However, pediatric epilepsy is not solely due to Heart Qi deficiency. *Qian Jin Fang* classifies Wind, Food, and Fright Epilepsy into three types. *Ben Shi Fang* classifies Yin/Yang Epilepsy and Slow Spleen Wind into three syndromes. (Slow Spleen Wind is equivalent to Food Epilexia, suitable for Xing Pi Yuan, Renshen San). The above formulas include San Xian Wan for treating 120 types of pediatric fright epilepsy. (Formula: Schizonepeta Spike (Jingjie Sui, 荆芥穗) 2 liang, Alum (Fan, 矾) 1 liang, half raw half calcined, powdered, pill with wheat paste, size of millet seeds, coat with Cinnabar, take 20 pills with Ginger Decoction). I believe using Laifu Dan for Slow Fright, San Xian Wan for Acute Fright, and Xing Pi Yuan for Food Epilexia is appropriate.
