# Medical Case:
A female, 39 years old, German.
First consultation on April 10, 2017. Unexplained low-grade fever persisted for more than three months, with a maximum body temperature of 39.5°C. Antibiotics were ineffective for 10 days. Later, abnormal liver function was found.
On April 7, 2017, ALT was 141U/L, AST was 58U/L, γ-GT was 139U/L, and CRP was 52.8mg/L. I hope to switch to traditional Chinese medicine treatment.

He is 173cm, 73kg, of medium build, with fair skin, unpleasant appearance, thick and greasy tongue coating, slippery pulse of 88 times/min, and discomfort when pressing under the xiphoid process.
Prescription - 5 doses. Follow-up visit 5 days later:
The body temperature has been 37°C in the past two days, and the appetite has improved.
Prescription - 7 doses.
Third consultation on May 17, 2017: I was told that I have continued to take the original prescription and my condition is stable. Since the last consultation, I have only had two low-grade fevers due to fatigue, but they did not exceed 37.8℃.
