due
shao yang synd.
and
yang ming synd.

tai yang synd. (stage 1)
- The Tai Yang syndrome corresponds to the initial invasion of the external Cold Evil through the pores and interstices of the skin.

Shao Yang (stage 2) 
- The Tai Yang stage involves Evil pathogens (Cold, Wind) on the exterior of the body which need to be released or "sweated out." The Yang Ming stage involves pathogenic Heat in the Interior which need to be purged through the bowels. In between these two stages is the Shao Yang syndrome where the pathogen is between Internal and External.
Yang Ming (stage 3) diseases exhibit 
- As the pathogenic factor invades the interior of the body in the Yang Ming stage, both the Zheng (Upright) Qi and the Evil (Xie) Qi are strong, turning the excess pathogen in to heat within the body. Yang Ming fevers are therefore more severe than fevers in the Tai Yang stage. In the Yang Ming Syndrome, there are no chills.
