One woman, Sixty three years old, suffered from chest pain, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting for about three months. Although many examinations, brain magnetic resonance imaging(MRI), chest computed tomography(CT), abdominal CT, gastric endoscope, abdominal ultrasonography, and so forth, was performed from every point of view, those were non-significant. At first, I wrongly diagnosed her case as disease of Soumin and gave Soumin Gwakhyangjeongkisan. But she complained of diarrhea and chest discomfort. I re-diagnosed her case as Soyangin Gyeolhyung and treated with Hyeongbangdojeoksan, herbal medicine, consisted of Rhizoma Rehmanniae(生地黃), Lignum Akebiae(木通), Radix Scrophulariae(玄蔘), Semen Trichosanthis(瓜蔞仁), etc. Three weeks have passed from first visit and she did not suffered from pain. I experienced the excellent effect of Hyeongbangdojeoksan to Soyangin Gyeonlhyung.
