(失血心神不安)
妇人血风惊悸者,是风乘于心故也。心藏神为诸脏之主,若血气调和,则心神安定。
若虚损则心神虚弱,致风邪乘虚袭之,故惊而悸动不定也。其惊悸不止,则变惚恍而忧
惧也。(排风汤亦可用。)
〔薛〕丹溪先生云∶惊悸者,血虚用朱砂安神丸。痰迷心窍用定志丸。怔忡者属火
属痰,思虑便动者属虚,时作时止者火动也。假如病因惊而到惊,则神出其舍,痰乘而入
矣。盖人之所主者心,心之所养者血,心血一虚,神气不守,此惊悸之所由生也。治当
调养心血,和平心气而已。金氏妇暑月赴筵,因坐次失序,自愧成病,言语失伦,两脉弦
数。予曰∶当补脾导痰清热。不信,以数巫者喷水咒之而死。或谓病既无邪,以邪治之,
何至于死?予曰∶暑月赴筵,外受蒸热,辛辣适口,内伤郁热,而况旧有积痰,加之愧
闷,其痰愈盛。又惊以法尺,益惊其神而气血不宁,喷以法水,闭其肌肤而汗不得泄,内
燔则阴既销而阳不能独立,不死何待?故滑伯仁先生云∶若胆气虚寒,用茯神汤。胆气
实热,用酸枣仁丸。心气虚热,用定志膏、茯苓补心汤。心气实热,用朱砂安神丸、茯神
散。文学归云桥内人,月事不及期,忽崩血昏愦,发热不寐,或谓血热妄行,投以寒
剂益甚。或谓胎成受伤,投以止血,亦不效。余曰∶此脾气虚弱无以统摄故耳,法当补脾
而血自止,用补中益气汤(杂病伤劳倦。)加炮姜,不数剂而验。惟终夜少寐惊悸,别服八物汤
不效。余曰∶杂矣,乃与归脾汤(杂病健忘,)加炮姜以补心脾,遂如初。 一妇人劳则心跳
怔忡,寒热往来,用归脾汤为主,佐以八珍汤,诸证渐愈,又用加味逍遥散、宁志丸而
安。后复作,服归脾、定志二药即愈。一妇人患惊悸怔忡,日晡发热,月经过期,饮
食少思,用八珍汤加远志、山药、酸枣仁,三十余剂渐愈,佐以归脾汤全愈。后因劳发热,
食少体倦,用补中益气汤。又因怒,适月经,去血不止,前证复作,先以加味逍遥散热退
经止,又用养心汤治之而痊。一妇人惊悸怔忡无寐,自汗盗汗,饮食不甘,怠惰嗜卧,
用归脾汤而愈。至年余怀抱郁结,患前证兼衄血、便血,仍用前汤而愈。

(失血导致心神不安)
妇女患血风惊悸,是因为风邪侵袭心脏的缘故。心藏神,是五脏六腑的主宰,如果气血调和,那么心神就会安定。
如果身体虚损,则心神虚弱,导致风邪趁虚侵袭,所以出现惊恐且心悸不定的症状。如果惊悸不止,就会变得恍惚、忧愁恐惧。(排风汤也可以使用。)
〔薛己〕丹溪先生说:惊悸,属于血虚,用朱砂安神丸。痰迷心窍,用定志丸。怔忡,属于火或痰,因思虑而发作的属于虚证,时发时止的属于火动。假如因为受惊而导致惊悸,那么神气就会离舍,痰邪就会乘虚而入。大概人由心主宰,心所滋养的是血,心血一旦虚弱,神气就不能守舍,这就是惊悸产生的原因。治疗应当调养心血,平和心气罢了。金氏妇在暑天赴宴,因为座位次序不当,自感羞愧而生病,言语错乱,两手脉象弦数。我说:应当补脾、导痰、清热。她不信,让几个巫师喷水念咒而死。有人问:既然病没有邪气,用治邪的方法治疗,怎么会致死?我说:暑天赴宴,外受蒸热,辛辣食物适口,内伤郁热,况且旧有积痰,加上羞愧郁闷,其痰更加旺盛。又因法尺惊吓,进一步惊扰神气使气血不宁,喷以法水,闭塞肌肤使汗不得排泄,内热燔灼则阴液既已消亡而阳气不能独立存在,不死还等什么?所以滑伯仁先生说:如果胆气虚寒,用茯神汤。胆气实热,用酸枣仁丸。心气虚热,用定志膏、茯苓补心汤。心气实热,用朱砂安神丸、茯神散。文学归云桥的内人,月经不到期,忽然崩漏昏愦,发热失眠,有人说这是血热妄行,投用寒凉药剂反而更严重。有人说胎成受伤,投用止血药,也不见效。我说:这是脾气虚弱无法统摄血液的缘故,治法应当补脾而血自然停止,用补中益气汤(杂病伤劳倦)加炮姜,没几剂就见效。只是整夜少睡惊悸,另外服用八物汤无效。我说:病情复杂了,于是给予归脾汤(杂病健忘)加炮姜以补心脾,于是恢复如初。一位妇人劳累后心跳怔忡,寒热往来,用归脾汤为主,佐以八珍汤,各种症状逐渐痊愈,又用加味逍遥散、宁志丸而安宁。后来复发,服用归脾、定志二药即愈。一位妇人患惊悸怔忡,傍晚发热,月经过期,饮食减少思食,用八珍汤加远志、山药、酸枣仁,三十多剂后逐渐痊愈,佐以归脾汤完全治愈。后来因劳累发热,食少体倦,用补中益气汤。又因愤怒,适逢月经,出血不止,前证复发,先用加味逍遥散热退经止,又用养心汤治疗而痊愈。一位妇人惊悸怔忡无眠,自汗盗汗,饮食不甘,怠惰嗜卧,用归脾汤而愈。过了一年多怀抱郁结,患前证兼衄血、便血,仍用前汤而愈。

(Heart-Mind Disturbance Due to Blood Loss)
Women suffering from blood-wind palpitations (Jingji, palpitations and fright) are affected because wind pathogen invades the Heart. The Heart stores the Mind (Shen) and is the master of all viscera; if Qi and Blood are harmonious, the Heart-Mind remains stable. If deficiency and damage occur, the Heart-Mind becomes weak, allowing wind pathogen to invade due to deficiency, resulting in fright and unstable palpitations. If palpitations persist, it transforms into trance-like states with worry and fear. (Paifeng Tang may also be used.)
[Xue Ji] Mr. Danxi stated: For palpitations due to Blood deficiency, use Zhusha Anshen Wan (Cinnabar Calming the Spirit Pill). For phlegm confusing the Heart orifices, use Dingzhi Wan (Stabilizing the Spirit Pill). Palpitations with a sense of fullness in the chest (Zhongchong) belong to Fire or Phlegm; those triggered by overthinking belong to deficiency; those that come and go belong to Fire agitation. For instance, if the cause is fright leading to palpitations, the Spirit leaves its residence, and Phlegm enters to take advantage. The human body is governed by the Heart, and the Heart is nourished by Blood. Once Heart Blood becomes deficient, the Spirit and Qi cannot remain secure, which is how palpitations arise. Treatment should focus on nourishing Heart Blood and harmonizing Heart Qi. Lady Jin attended a banquet in summer. Because her seating order was improper, she became ashamed and fell ill, speaking incoherently, with wiry and rapid pulses in both hands. I said: "Spleen should be tonified, Phlegm guided out, and Heat cleared." She did not believe me and died after several shamans sprayed water and chanted spells. Someone asked: "If there was no pathogenic factor, why did treating it as such lead to death?" I said: "Attending a banquet in summer, she was externally subjected to steaming heat, and spicy food caused internal stagnation-Heat. Moreover, she had old accumulated Phlegm, which increased due to shame and depression. Further fright from the ruler agitated her Spirit and disturbed Qi and Blood. Spraying water closed the skin pores, preventing sweat excretion. Internal blazing consumed Yin, leaving Yang unable to stand alone. How could she not die?" Thus, Mr. Hua Borén said: If Gallbladder Qi is deficient and cold, use Fushen Tang (Poria Decoction). If Gallbladder Qi is excess and hot, use Suanzaoren Wan (Ziziphus Seed Pill). If Heart Qi is deficient and hot, use Dingzhi Gao (Stabilizing Spirit Paste) or Fuling Buxin Tang (Poria Nourishing the Heart Decoction). If Heart Qi is excess and hot, use Zhusha Anshen Wan or Fushen San (Poria Powder). The wife of Scholar Gui Yunqiao had menstruation arriving early, suddenly suffered metrorrhagia with fainting, fever, and insomnia. Some said it was Blood-heat causing reckless bleeding and prescribed cold herbs, worsening the condition. Others said it was fetal injury and prescribed hemostatics, also ineffective. I said: "This is due to Spleen Qi deficiency failing to control Blood. The method should be to tonify the Spleen so Blood stops naturally." I used Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) [for miscellaneous diseases involving fatigue] with Paojiang (Prepared Ginger). After a few doses, it was effective. However, she still had little sleep and palpitations at night. Taking Babu Tang (Eight Substances Decoction) was ineffective. I said: "The case is complex," and prescribed Guipi Tang (Restore the Spleen Decoction) [for miscellaneous diseases involving forgetfulness] with Paojiang to tonify Heart and Spleen, restoring her health. A woman who experienced heart palpitations and Zhongchong upon exertion, with alternating chills and fever, was treated primarily with Guipi Tang, assisted by Bazhen Tang (Eight Treasures Decoction), gradually recovering. Later, Jiawei Xiaoyao San (Modified Free and Easy Wanderer Powder) and Ningzhi Wan (Calming the Spirit Pill) brought peace. Upon recurrence, taking Guipi and Dingzhi pills cured her. Another woman suffered from Jingji, Zhongchong, evening fever, delayed menstruation, poor appetite, and lack of desire for food. She took Bazhen Tang with Yuanzhi (Polygala Root), Shanyao (Dioscorea Rhizome), and Suanzaoren (Ziziphus Seed) for over thirty doses, gradually improving, and was fully cured with Guipi Tang assistance. Later, exertion caused fever, poor diet, and fatigue, treated with Buzhong Yiqi Tang. Anger coincided with menstruation, causing continuous bleeding and recurrence of previous symptoms. First, Jiawei Xiaoyao San stopped the heat and bleeding, then Yangxin Tang (Nourish the Heart Decoction) cured her. A woman with Jingji, Zhongchong, insomnia, spontaneous sweating, and night sweats, unpalatable food, lethargy, and drowsiness, was cured with Guipi Tang. Over a year later, emotional depression led to recurrence with epistaxis and hematochezia, still cured with the same decoction.

[Heart-Mind Disturbance Due to Blood Loss]
[Xue Ji] For the aforementioned syndromes, if there is Liver-Spleen stagnation-heat, use Jiawei Xiaoyao San. If Liver-Spleen stagnation, use Jiawei Guipi Tang. If Spleen-Stomach weakness with Qi and Blood deficiency, use Bazhen Tang or Shiquan Dabu Tang. If Lung-Spleen weakness with Qi and Blood deficiency, use Buzhong Yiqi Tang or Liujunzi Tang. If Phlegm-Qi stagnation, use Liujunzi, Jiegeng, and Beimu. If ineffective, examine if it is Qi deficiency; only tonify Spleen and Stomach. If still ineffective, use Dushen Tang. If aversion to cold and fever, it belongs to dual deficiency of Qi and Blood. Internal heat and afternoon fever belong to Blood deficiency. Thirst and red face indicate Blood loss with irritability. All are suitable for sweet-bitter agents to tonify Yang Qi and generate Yin Blood. The Classics state: "In Blood loss, tonify Qi." Using cold-cooling agents to descend Fire would be a mistake. Still, examine the specific cause and treat accordingly.
Ningzhi Gao treats women who, due to excessive blood loss, have an unsettled Heart-Mind, abnormal speech, and inability to sleep.
Chensha (ground), Suanzaoren (fried), Renshen, Bai Fushen (wood removed), Hupo (each 1 fen, ground), Dilixiang (1 qian, ground).
Grind into powder, mix evenly. Take 1 qian per dose, mix with thick decoction of Centella/Juncus and jujube water, take on an empty stomach. (Another prescription excludes Fushen and Hupo, makes honey pills like bullet size, dissolve one pill in mint tea.)
Fuling Buxin Tang: In women, abundant Blood and deficient Qi is the norm. The Heart governs Blood, and the Liver stores Blood. Now, if Blood is deficient but Qi is excessive, it is due to Heart Qi deficiency and consumption, failing to govern Blood and failing to control Lung Metal, allowing Lung Metal to attack Liver Wood. Liver deficiency means Blood cannot be stored, gradually becoming dry and failing to nourish collaterals, thus menstrual irregularity occurs. This formula specifically tonifies Heart Yuan deficiency, suppresses Lung Qi attack, harmonizes Ying and Wei, and nourishes blood vessels, allowing the disease to resolve naturally.
