服用竹叶石膏汤。王回头张望，却看不见人影。像这样的情况发生了三次。于是购买了现成的成药两帖，交给童仆煎煮。童仆立刻喝掉了其中一半。在此之前，患者头部沉重无法抬起，感觉像是头顶着千斤重物。忽然间感到身体轻清，嘴唇也逐渐回暖，咽喉和胸膈通畅，没有任何阻碍。全部服下后，过了一会儿，汗出如洗，随即入睡。等到天亮时，病体痊愈，恢复如常。此人原本为人谨慎庄重，常年吃素，与人举行斋醮仪式时竭尽诚心，因此被神灵如此护佑。
病患的脉象已经平和，但在傍晚时分出现轻微烦闷。这是因为病刚痊愈，人们强行给病人进食，而脾胃之气尚且虚弱，不能消化食物，所以导致轻微烦闷。减少饮食量就会痊愈。（“病患”二字，《玉函经》作“伤寒”。）
〔喻嘉言〕脉象已经平和，说明阴阳调和，可知没有表里之邪。傍晚时分轻微烦闷，是因为白天卫气行于阳分，此时本不应烦闷。这是由于脾胃气弱，不能消化食物所致。减少饮食，脾胃之气逐渐旺盛，疾病就会自愈。注家们牵强地将日暮解释为阳明经主旺之时，因此认为应当用小承气汤攻下。（成无己注）不知道此条论述的是病愈后的证候，而非六经传变至阳明的证候。（方有执注）日暮，即《内经》所说“太阳西而阳气已衰”的意思，所以不能消化食物。损谷，应当是减少谷物食物的摄入，以休养脾胃，不可引用前一条宿食的例子，轻易使用大黄，从而重伤脾胃。〔魏荔彤〕减少谷物的数量，每餐吃一升的，改为吃七合；吃五合的，改为吃三合。等待胃脾逐渐强壮，再逐渐增加食量，这也是节制饮食以防疾病复发的方法之一。
《玉函经》记载：病后劳复，出现发热的，用麦门冬汤主治。该方与《金匮要略·咳嗽篇》所载相同。○此条在现今版本中遗漏脱失，应当是张仲景的原文。
Zhuye Shigao Tang (Bamboo Leaf and Gypsum Decoction) was administered. Wang looked back but could not see anyone. This occurred three times. Consequently, two doses of ready-made patent medicine were purchased and given to a boy servant for decoction. The servant immediately consumed half of it. Previously, the patient's head was too heavy to lift, feeling as if bearing a thousand jin of weight. Suddenly, the body felt light and clear, the lips gradually warmed, and the throat and diaphragm became unobstructed. After consuming the remainder, shortly thereafter, profuse sweating occurred like a bath, followed by immediate sleep. By dawn, the patient recovered completely, returning to normal. This person was originally cautious and dignified, had been vegetarian for years, and performed zhaijiao (fasting rituals) with utmost sincerity, thus receiving such divine protection.
The patient's pulse had resolved, yet slight restlessness appeared at dusk. This is because the illness had just healed, people forced food upon the patient, and the Qi of the Spleen and Stomach was still weak, unable to digest the food, hence causing slight restlessness. Reducing food intake will lead to recovery. ("Patient" in some texts is written as "Shanghan".)
[Yu Jiayan] The resolution of the pulse indicates that Yin and Yang are harmonious, implying the absence of exterior or interior pathogenic factors. The slight restlessness at dusk occurs because Wei Qi (Defensive Qi) travels through the Yang channels during the day; thus, restlessness should not occur then. It is caused by weak Spleen and Stomach Qi failing to digest food. Reducing food intake allows Spleen and Stomach Qi to gradually strengthen, leading to spontaneous recovery. Commentators erroneously link dusk to the peak time of the Yangming channel, suggesting the use of Xiao Chengqi Tang (Minor Order the Commandant Decoction) for purging. [Cheng Wuji] Fails to realize this discusses post-illness conditions, not the transmission of Six Channels to Yangming. [Fang Youzhi] Dusk refers to the concept in Neijing that "when the sun sets, Yang Qi declines," hence the inability to digest food. "Reducing grain" means decreasing dietary intake to nourish and rest the Spleen and Stomach. One should not cite the previous case of retained food to lightly employ Rhizoma Rhei Preparata (Dahuang), which would severely damage the Spleen and Stomach. [Wei Litong] Reduce the quantity of grain: if one sheng per meal, reduce to seven he; if five he, reduce to three he. Wait for the Stomach and Spleen to gradually strengthen before incrementally increasing food intake. This is also a method of regulating diet to prevent disease recurrence.
Yuhan Jing records: For labor relapse after illness with fever, Mai Men Dong Tang (Ophiopogon Decoction) is the primary treatment. This formula is identical to that recorded in the Cough section of Jin Gui Yao Lue. ○ This paragraph is missing in current editions but is likely original text by Zhang Zhongjing.
