〔《本草》〕世人所说的“气中”,虽然未在方书中见到记载,然而暴喜损伤阳气,暴怒损伤阴血,忧愁失意,气机多发生厥逆,往往容易得此病,便觉得涎沫上涌、昏塞,牙关紧急。如果一概当作中风候证用药,不仅不对症,还多会导致死亡。元朝庚午年,我的母亲亲身遭遇此祸,至今心中含恨。母亲平时吃素,气血虚弱,因为先父去世忧恼,忽然一日发生气厥,牙关紧闭、涎沫上涌,一位乡医便当作中风,用大通丸三粒让她泻下,大泻数次,当晚就去世了,我曾对此深感痛恨。每次见到这种病症,急忙化开苏合香丸灌服便能苏醒,然后根据寒热虚实的不同进行调理,没有不痊愈的。

〔《脉经》〕问:妇人患病像癫疾郁冒,一天发作二十多次,医生诊脉,反而说是带下病,结果都像医生所说,她的脉象是什么样的?如何区别?医生说:寸口脉濡而紧,濡则阳气微弱,紧则营分有寒,阳气微弱则卫气虚,血液枯竭凝滞于寒,阴阳不和,邪气居于营卫之间。疾病起于年少时月经来潮期间行房事,时间过长过度,精气感召命门开启,经血下行导致血虚,百脉皆张,中极穴感受阳气扰动,微风激发成寒,因虚而客舍于营卫,致使积结于丹田,发动上冲,奔突在胸膈,津液掩蔽口入,涎唾涌出溢出,眩晕冒昧状如厥逆,气冲大腿内侧发热,粗俗的医生命名为癫,施灸后病情加重。问妇人病痛,气上冲胸,眩晕冒昧,吐涎沫,大腿内侧气冲发热,医生诊脉,不诊断为带下,她的脉象是什么样的?如何区别?医生说:寸口脉沉而微,沉则胃气潜伏,微则营气衰竭,阳伏则为疹,阴绝则为亡血,病应当小便不利,津液闭塞。现在反而小便通利,微微出汗,沉变为寒,咳逆呕沫,肺成为痿证,津液枯竭减少,亡血损伤经络,因寒导致血厥,手足苦于痹阻,气从丹田升起,上至胸胁,沉寒怫郁于上,胸中窒塞,气经过阳部,面部红赤如醉,形体看似肥胖。这是浮虚之脉,医生反而用长针攻下,又重复损伤营卫,久发眩晕冒昧,所以知道是血厥。
〔仲景〕问:寸口脉沉大而滑,沉则为实,滑则为气,实与气相互搏结,血气入脏即死,入腑即愈,这叫卒厥,是什么意思?医生说:嘴唇青紫、身体寒冷,是入脏即死;如果身体温和、汗自出,是入腑即愈。

To treat sudden death accompanied by intense heat, the prescription uses half a jin of Alum (Fan Shi), boiled in one dan and a half of water until dissolved. Soak the feet in the solution up to the ankles.
[Shi] For those who died due to fright, administer warm wine.

[Ben Cao] The condition known as "Qi Zhong" (Stroke of Qi) mentioned by laypeople is not found in medical texts. However, excessive joy injures Yang, excessive anger injures Yin, and sorrow or frustration often leads to Qi Jue (Reversal of Qi). Patients typically experience surging saliva, stupor, obstruction, and lockjaw. If treated indiscriminately as Feng Zheng (Wind Syndrome), it is not only inappropriate but often fatal. In the Gengwu year of the Yuan dynasty, my mother suffered this affliction, leaving me with lasting regret. My mother usually ate a vegetarian diet and had weak Qi and Blood. Following the grief of my father's death, she suddenly suffered Qi Jue with lockjaw and salivary overflow. A local physician diagnosed it as Wind Stroke and administered three pills of Da Tong Wan (Great Unblocking Pill) to induce purgation. After several severe purges, she died that night. I deeply lamented this. Whenever I encounter such cases, I urgently prepare Su He Xiang Wan (Styrax Pill) for administration, which restores consciousness. Subsequently, regulating based on Cold, Heat, Deficiency, and Excess invariably leads to recovery.
The Classics state: Sudden aphonia without cause, with a pulse that fluctuates between large and small, short and long, indicates Gui Chuang (Ghost Affliction); a slippery pulse indicates Gui Zhu (Ghost Transmission); a tight and rapid pulse indicates Dun Shi (Escaping Corpse).
[Su Wen] A pulse that is rapid like panting is named Bao Jue (Sudden Reversal). Those with Bao Jue cannot speak with others. (From *Da Qi Lun*) A floating and scattered pulse indicates collapse. (Wang Bing notes: Floating indicates Deficiency, Scattered indicates insufficiency. From *Mai Yao Jing Wei Lun*)
In cases of sudden collapse due to extreme deficiency where pathogenic factors strike abruptly, the five Zang organs close, the pulse channels become blocked, and Qi ceases to circulate. This is akin to falling into drowning; prognosis is unpredictable, and the pulse may cease entirely. If the pulse beats five or six times per breath, yet the flesh has not wasted away, even if the True Zang pulse is not visible, it is still a death sign. (From *Yu Ji Zhen Zang Lun*)
[Wu] The pulse for Zhong Shu (Heat Stroke) is weak at the Yang position and indicates Yin Deficiency; it is slightly slow and resembles a Kou pulse (Hollow pulse).
[Mai Jing] Question: A woman suffers from symptoms resembling Dian Ji (Mania-Depression) and Yu Mao (Stagnant Dizziness), occurring more than twenty times a day. The physician diagnoses a Dai Xia (Leukorrhea) condition, which proves correct. What does her pulse resemble? How to differentiate? Answer: The Cun Kou pulse is Ru (Soggy) and Jin (Tight). Ru indicates slight Yang Qi deficiency; Jin indicates Cold in the Ying (Nutritive) level. Yang deficiency leads to Wei (Defensive) Qi deficiency; blood exhaustion and stagnation create Cold. Yin-Yang disharmony allows pathogenic factors to lodge in Ying and Wei. The disease originated when she engaged in intercourse during menstruation in her youth, overexerting herself. Essence stimulated the Ming Men (Gate of Life) to open, menstrual blood flowed causing Blood Deficiency, and all vessels dilated. The Zhong Ji point felt Yang movement; slight wind triggered Cold. Due to deficiency, pathogens lodged in Ying and Wei, accumulating in the Dan Tian. Upon activation, Qi rushed upward to the chest and diaphragm. Body fluids covered the mouth, causing saliva to surge and overflow. Dizziness and stupor resembled Jue. Qi rushing into the thighs caused heat. Crude physicians named it Dian (Mania), and moxibustion aggravated it.
Question: A woman suffers from Qi rushing to the chest, dizziness, vomiting of saliva, and heat in the thighs. The physician does not diagnose Dai Xia. What is the pulse? How to differentiate? Answer: The Cun Kou pulse is Chen (Deep) and Wei (Fine). Chen indicates latent Stomach Qi; Wei indicates exhausted Ying Qi. Yang latency causes rashes; Yin exhaustion causes Blood loss. The disease should present with difficult urination and closed body fluids. Now, urine flows freely, slight sweating occurs, Chen transforms into Cold, coughing and vomiting of foam occur, the Lung becomes Fei (Flaccidity), body fluids are depleted, Blood loss damages meridians. Due to Cold, Blood Jue (Reversal) occurs, causing bi-syndrome in hands and feet. Qi rises from the Dan Tian to the chest and hypochondrium. Deep Cold stagnates above, causing chest oppression. Qi passes through Yang regions, causing the face to appear flushed as if drunk, and the body appears fat. This is a Fu Xu (Floating and Deficient) pulse. Physicians incorrectly used long needles to purge, further damaging Ying and Wei. Long-standing dizziness confirms Blood Jue.
[Zhong Jing] Question: The Cun Kou pulse is Chen (Deep) and Da (Large) and Hua (Slippery). Chen indicates Excess; Hua indicates Qi. When Excess and Qi contend, if Blood and Qi enter the Zang organs, death ensues; if they enter the Fu organs, recovery occurs. This is called Cu Jue (Sudden Reversal). What does this mean? Answer: Blue lips and cold body indicate entry into Zang organs leading to death. Warm body and spontaneous sweating indicate entry into Fu organs leading to recovery.
[Mai Jing] In patients with Shi Jue (Corpse Reversal) who do not respond to calls, a hidden pulse indicates death, while a pulse that is large but becomes smaller also indicates death. In sudden attacks of Evil Qi, if the abdomen is distended and limbs full, a large and slow pulse indicates survival; a tight, large, and floating pulse indicates death; a tight, fine, and minute pulse also indicates survival.
