Objective: This study addresses a case of fibromyalgia with insomnia and dry mouth.Methods: A patient diagnosed with fibromyalgia was treated with Korean medicine including herbal therapy with <i>Guibiondam-tang-gagam</i>, acupuncture, pharmacopuncture, moxibustion, and chuna for 16 days. To evaluate the therapeutic effects, sleeping hours, time taken to fall asleep, and surprise on waking were assessed, and a numeric rating scale (NRS) was used to monitor dry mouth.Results: After treatment, the patient’s sleeping hours increased, time taken to fall asleep decreased, and the patient woke up surprised less often. The NRS score for dry mouth also decreased.Conclusion: These results suggest that Korean medicine therapies with <i>Guibiondam-tang-gagam</i> have a beneficial effect on insomnia and dry mouth as additional symptoms of fibromyalgia.

Objective: This study addressed the case of a cerebral infarction patient with recurring aspiration pneumonia.Methods: A patient diagnosed with cerebral infarction with recurring aspiration pneumonia was treated with Korean medicine therapies, including herbal medication (<i>Shigyungbanha-tang-gami</i>), acupuncture, electro-acupuncture, and moxibustion combined with antibiotics for 31 days. To evaluate the therapeutic effect, we checked chest X-rays, lab evaluations, the number of night suctions, and body temperature.Results: After treatment, chest X-rays and inflammation markers improved. In addition, the number of night suctions decreased, and the body temperature was normalized. Aspiration pneumonia recurred. However, the intensity of the symptoms gradually weakened, and the recovery speed increased.Conclusion: These results suggest that Korean medicine therapies, including <i>Shigyungbanha-tang-gami</i> combined with antibiotics, have a beneficial effect on recurring aspiration pneumonia, an additional disease related to cerebral infarction.
