The Stagnation Syndrome of Qi is the depressed and suppressed mental state caused by anxiety, unaccomplished desire, maintained thought, and emotional problems, resulting in a concomitant physiological somatic dysfunction. Although blood test, urine test, EKG, and gastric endoscopy showed normal finding. a patient complained of a group of symptoms, so we considered it as an unidentified clinical syndrome. This syndrome could be interpreted as the disconnection of Fire (Heart) and Water (Kidney) in Oriental medicine, and treated with the therapeutic method of 'Ascending Water-Descending Fire'. After the application of Gyogam-dan and Ganggi-tang for 18 days, symptoms and signs improved.
