夫虚劳之人。阳气不足。水饮下咽。入于胃府。不能流传。致多痰饮。其候胸膈痞闷。
倚息短气。怠惰嗜卧。心下悸动。咳嗽痰水。不欲饮食。是也。治法宜调顺三焦。升降阴阳。
使气道通流。则痰饮自消。

In patients with deficiency consumptive disease (Xu Lao), yang qi is insufficient. When water and fluids enter the stomach, they fail to circulate properly, leading to the accumulation of excessive phlegm-fluids (Tan Yin). The manifestations include chest and diaphragm stuffiness and oppression, orthopnea (relying on objects to breathe) with shortness of breath, lethargy and drowsiness, palpitations in the epigastrium, coughing with sputum and fluid retention, and anorexia. The treatment principle should be to regulate the San Jiao (Triple Burner), ascend and descend yin and yang, and ensure the smooth flow of the air passages, so that the phlegm-fluids will naturally dissipate.
