我曾经治疗罗安人，年龄近六十岁。遇到秋冬交替之时，上气喘促，不能坐卧，六脉洪实，服用各种药物无效。询问疾病的根源，年轻时在四川任职期间服用过丹砂，又担心是丹毒为害。于是服用洗心散，都无效。我用华盖散服用几次就治愈了，随意记录下来。

Doctor Zhang from Liangzhe suffered from wheezing for twenty years. The condition worsened every autumn and winter, making sitting and lying impossible. Various treatments failed. Later, he obtained a prescription from Monk Faben of Linping and was cured. Monk Faben had been ill for thirty years; after taking this medicine for half a year, the root cause was eliminated, and it never recurred. To be effective, this medicine must be taken for a prolonged period.

I once treated Lady Luo, nearly sixty years old. During the transition between autumn and winter, she experienced upper body wheezing and urgency, unable to sit or lie down. Her six pulses were surging and solid. Various medicines were ineffective. Upon asking about the origin of the disease, she revealed that in her youth, while serving in Sichuan, she had ingested Cinnabar (Dansha), and feared damage from cinnabar toxicity. She then took Xi Xin San, but it was ineffective. I used Hua Gai San for a few doses, and she recovered. I record this casually.
