Cough Cough Cough

Big girl has been coughing since we were back from Korea. Seen doctor twice. Drank radish enzyme this time also don;t help. Double boil pomelo skin also did not work. I googled. Found this recipe, seems ok. There are some diagnosis of the coughing types. The chronic cough due to lung deficiency seems to match her. A cough with a loud barking sound - Yin deficiency of the lungs and kidneys, and the throat is attacked by toxic fire.

 
So this is one of the recipe:
1) Schisandra (Wu wei zhi) 4g,
2) Ginseng (seems to be red) 4g, [I have some left over korean red ginseng, so i used them]
3) Perilla stem (Su-geng) 3g.
Clean & crush then infused in hot water for 15 mins, drink warm and repeat 2-3 times.

Since last night till late morning, there was little cough. Will continue tonight.

Thank you.
