**Case of Guan Ge Syndrome (Obstruction and Reversal): Obstruction of both Large and Small Intestines (Da Cheng Qi Tang)**.
The wife of Zhao Lingyi, an official of Fengzhi, suddenly experienced vomiting and reflux, obstruction of both stool and urine, restlessness and confusion, gradual coldness of the four limbs, and absence of pulse. After one and a half days, one dose of Da Cheng Qi Tang (Major Order the Qi Decoction) was administered. By midnight, bowel movement gradually became unobstructed, and the pulse gradually reappeared. She stabilized the next day. This is Guan Ge disease, which is extremely difficult to treat; this was the only case I have seen.
