Treatment Experience for Prolonged Low-Grade Fever, June 15, 1985

In June 1985, I was working at the outpatient clinic of the Gansu Provincial Cancer Hospital, where I indirectly treated a patient with unexplained fever. The patient was a woman who had been feverish for over a month, accompanied by fatigue, loss of appetite, and pallor. Upon pulse diagnosis, I found a deep, thin pulse with rhythmic changes. From a Western medical perspective, this patient’s condition was attributed to autonomic nervous system dysfunction. However, I diagnosed her as suffering from both qi and yin deficiency and treated her with a combination of Yi Qi Tang and Qinghao Bie Jia Tang, five doses in total, which led to her recovery.
