There is a patient named Zhu Tingli in Jiaxing area, who used to be a prefect of Guangxin. He has a condition that is easy to vomit, and it gets better from time to time. In severe cases, he vomits continuously, and he cannot eat rice for three days.
The doctor at the time diagnosed him as a diaphragmatic syndrome. (The symptoms of the diaphragm are similar to those of esophageal cancer, and the symptoms of the diaphragm are very similar to those of the cardia.) He was helpless, so his friend invited me to see a doctor.
After a careful examination, I told him that this is what Chinese medicine calls stomach upset, and it is not a symptom of an incurable disease.
Diaphragm syndrome is caused by dryness of the stomach, while stomach upset is caused by phlegm and fire. Although the two conditions are very similar, the severity of the conditions is very different.
So I prescribed Banxia Xiexin Decoction, which was adjusted by addition and subtraction for a period of time. Gradually, my diet recovered, and my body gradually became healthy. I visited each other frequently and became confidants.
However, because of his intemperance of diet, his previous illnesses still occur frequently, and his appetite is not very large. After so many years, he has been taking the prescription I prescribed and his health is fine.
Once I passed by his house, and he said after seeing me that he met many famous doctors in the arena during this time, and they all said that my body was relatively weak, so I had to use ginseng, aconite, etc. Chinese medicine can be adjusted.
After listening to their advice, I bought some to eat, and I feel that during this time, my appetite is indeed much better than before.
I know his physical condition. Traditional Chinese medicines such as ginseng and aconite are some warming medicines that help fire. On the surface, they promote digestion, but in fact they consume the vitality in his body. , Over time, it will inevitably lead to poisonous heat injury.
Although Ting Li promised me with a smile on the surface, it could be seen that he did not agree, but he meant to see each other late.
One night after a gap of two months, the pavilion servant came to invite me overnight, and immediately rushed to his home by boat. I saw that a large amount of blood had been spit out in front of his bedroom bed.
I was surprised and asked him, what’s going on? However, at this time, he was already very weak, unable to speak, and could only cry silently, saying goodbye to me
