sleepless nights, sleep full of dreams, jerking of muscles,

twitching, leucorrhoea, congestion of the pelvis. A woman who has

been normal in her relations with her husband brings forth a

child, and then the thought of sexual relations causes nausea and

CONIUM

KENT

in the woman induration and

enlargement of the ovaries and uterus. "Uterine spasms during too

early and scanty menses."

This medicine has dwindling of the mammary glands

as well as enlargement and induration.

It has cured fibroid

tumors of the uterus. It has restrained cancerous growth of the

cervix.
An abscess of the breast becomes

surrounded by lumps and nodules. Nodules in the breast even where

milk has not yet formed; lumps and nodules indurations and

enlarged glands form under the skin all over the body. Conium has

been used extensively for malignant affections of glands, because

it takes hold of glands from the beginning and infiltrates, and

they gradually grow to a stony hardness, like scirrhus.

CLARK

*Murex produces frantic sexual desire, and tends to have

excessive haemorrhage with large clots,

Another leading feature of *Murex is:

Consciousness of the womb, sore pain in uterus

The sinking,

all-gone sensation is very well marked

*Murex has a sensation

of dryness and constriction in the womb.

The pains are frequently

diagonal and shoot from ovary to opposite breast

Another

peculiar symptom of *Murex is: A feeling as if something were

pressing on a sore spot in the pelvis. This is analogous to a

general sensitiveness to touch.

The least contact with the parts

causes violent sexual excitement.

The cervix is sensitive to the

examining finger.

The slightest touch causes bleeding of

excoriation on cervix. (May be thought of in cauliflower

excrescences.)
There is excessive secretion of urine, and

frequent necessity to rise at night to urinate. This nightly

polyuria, with the hungry craving of *Murex and other symptoms,

has led to its successful use in diabetes.

Must lie

down from weakness, but lying down worse all symptoms.

Extreme irritation of genital parts, with ardent sexual desire

to a degree almost maniacal, slightest touch re awakens desire.

pressure in vagina, pain at top of sacrum extending to hips.

"downward dragging" from shoulders, from thorax, from left

breast, from epigastrium down to pelvis, and out at the vagina as

if everything would be forced through.

The

downward pressure involved the rectum and bladder, and loins.

Menses came at regular times but flowed only as long as she kept

moving.

Much hurried and driven, she knows not why. Heart

symptoms came on at this time, about a month after commencing the

proving: sudden fluttering sensation, less felt *if she can busy

herself very much.

A patient to whom I gave *Lil. tig. 30 said it caused a

sensation in the abdomen as if the contents were "tied up in

results from *Lil. t. 3x and 30 in cases of uterine fibroid

presenting the characteristic symptoms of the remedy.

With nausea, a lump in center of chest which could be moved down

by empty swallowing.

"Cannot walk on uneven ground." (*H. C. Allen).

Burning palms and soles accompany other

complaints.

Amenorrhoea in emigrants.

CLARK
*Plat. Lost sense of proportion in both ocular and mental

vision. Objects look small or the patient thinks them small. The

becomes pride and hauteur in the mental sphere, the patient

(generally a woman) looks down on everything and everybody. This

is a keynote of Plat.

Another is the occurrence of cramps,

cramping pains and spasms, developing into convulsions. The

cramping pains causes numbness and tingling in the parts

affected.

Pains as if nipped, squeezed in a vice, and these pains

increase gradually to an acme and then as gradually decline.

In

the rectum this becomes tenesmus, in vagina, vaginismus.

Changing moods, sad and gay alternately, laughs and

cries by turns

There is also a perverse state: Laughs

immoderately, but in the wrong place, laughs at serious things.

The mental disorder at times takes a homicidal form. Jahr cured

with *Plat. A woman who had an inspiration to kill her child,

Kent (*Med. *Adv., xxv. 184) records the case of a

middle-aged lady, mother of several grown-up daughters, who

complained of a peculiar mental symptom: A fear, in the absence

of her husband, that he would never return, that he would die, or

be run over. She wept all the time he was away.

The action of *Plat. to a

large extent center in and radiates from the sexual organs, male

and female

Tendency to

uncover completely in sleep is a leading note of it.

The stools of *Plat. are tenacious and sticky,

adhere to the rectum and anus like putty, or they may be hard as

if burnt, the constipation comes on while travelling, in

emigrants, during pregnancy.

Metrorrhagia (with great excitability of the sexual

system) of thick, deep-coloured blood, with drawings in groins.

Catamenia too early and too profuse (blood dark and coagulated),

sometimes with headache, restlessness and tears.

Bloody lochia return after the least motion, better during rest.

NASH
The only marked symptom in addition to the

haemorrhage that should lead to its selection over other remedies

of this class, especially in its haemorrhages from the pelvic

organs, is the marked violent IRRITATION OF THE RECTUM and

bladder. Here we must remember also CANTHARIS, LIL-T.,and NUX-V

CANTHARIS

KENT;

In the female there is oversensitiveness of all parts.

Inflammation of the ovaries and uterus. Burning in the vagina.

Membranous dysmenorrhoea. Menses too early, profuse, black.

CLARK

There

is anger in a very acute degree amounting to paroxysms of rage,

and a corresponding condition of the bodily tissues.

The word

"*irritation" best expresses the totality of the *Cantharis

effects.

The pains are burning, and sharp, lancinating along the

course of a nerve

*Canth. produces amorous frenzy,

unbounded sexual desire, also sexual erethism and excitability.

The sexual appetite is aroused to the point of mania.

Coitus does not always reduce it.

BELLADONNA

An enormous number of the symptoms of *Bell.

are developed in and from the head and sensorium. Conformably

with this, the pains of *Bell. run downwards, i.e., away from the

head. (*Sil, and *Gels. have a pain running *up the back)
it is a medicine which has great general *sensitiveness and also

sensitiveness of the special senses, sensitive to light, to

slightest noise, to motion or jar as when some one touches the

bed.

It is a *chilly medicine, sensitive to changes from

warm to cold, to *draught of air, to damp weather, to chilling

from having the head uncovered, or *having the hair cut, better

from being wrapped up warmly in a room.

Under this drug there is

a remarkable quickness of sensation, or of motion, the eyes snap

and move quickly.

The pains *come and go suddenly no matter how

long they may last.

*stabbing are very characteristic: "stabbing from

one temple to the other."

It has cured a

very severe headache in a nervous man occurring whenever he was

exposed to tobacco smoke.

*Heat, redness and burning are three great characteristic notes

of *Bell., and are constantly cropping out in the pathogenesis

The mouth is exceedingly dry without thirst.

Sensation of a hand clutching intestines.

The

menstrual flow is hot, of light colour, or bad smell.

Cough

short, dry, tickling, similar to cough of *Rumex and Phos.

Whooping-cough, with crying or pains before the attack, flushed

Face
Swellings of breast with bright red streaks

radiating from center of inflammation

Sweat on covered parts only.

A very general characteristic of *Bell. is

worse on lying down. It refers to headache and all kinds of

inflammatory affections.

Symptoms are worse afternoon, 3 p-m., 11 p-m.

Catamenia too

copious, and too early, or too tardy. Catamenia too pale.

Before

the catamenia, fatigue, colic, loss of appetite, and confused

sight.

During the catamenia, nocturnal sweat on the chest, with

yawning and transient shiverings, colic, or anguish of heart,

burning thirst, sharp and cramp-like pains in the back and in the

arms.

Flow of blood beyond the period of catamenia

Flow of blood

hot like the sealing-wax.

Metrorrhagia of clear red blood, with a

discharge of fetid clots, with violent pain in the small of the

back and bearing down.

Flow of milk from the breast.

Mammae swelled, inflamed, or indurated.

KENT

They have symptoms of great suffering, of great

excitability.

The parts are sensitive; the uterus and ovaries are

congested, sore to touch, sensitive to jar.

Irritable uterus,

until it has become enlarged and painful, and sore to the touch.

Sometimes it remains in this state after parturition. Or, after

every menstrual period it is a little larger, and remains. It

does not return to its normal state, but remains congested, and

the woman feels all through the interim as if she was

menstruating.

Uterine haemorrhage from congestion, with

spasms with great sensitiveness. The uterus contracts with

violence, hence, a spasmodic contraction. Great soreness, with a

(<)copious flow of bright red fluid mixed with clots, is

the characteristic of the Belladonna flow(>). It is like (<)Sabina(>)

in that respect. Those two medicines have that in a high

grade.

The uterus fills with a clot, and then comes a

contraction like a labor pain and expels it; for a while a

copious flow of fluid; and then contractions like labor pains

come on again, expelling the clots, and then comes the flow. The

blood clots soon, and the haemorrhage is attended with great

exhaustion., Now this occurs almost without any provocation.

This haemorrhage occurs also in connection with abortion

Belladonna is a great remedy to check the haemorrhage in

connection with abortion or from any cause whatever where

the symptoms of sensitiveness are present. sensitive to

touch, sensitive to a jar; the patient herself is in that state

of irritable sensitiveness, great nervous excitement manifested

both when awake and in sleep; often with fever.

haemorrhage, with febrile conditions, but usually the

haemorrhage takes the place of the fever, and commonly if there

is haemorrhage it will relieve the fever.

It is also a great remedy for haemorrhage after confinement.

(<)The blood feels hot(>). Haemorrhage, with hour-glass contraction.

It has also the most violent dysmenorrhoea. Pains like labor-

pains. Spasmodic labor-pains. Circular contractions are the

commonest forms in Bell. All of the fibers should take part

uniformly and do their work uniformly, and thereby gradually

bring to bear a tightening upon the contents

Violent contraction of the circular fibers, and

hence, a woman will often describe it as feeling as if the uterus

was clutched with a string.

The uterus comes down and is partly exposed

between the labiae. Prolapsus as if the whole inner parts were

coming out is a common feature, and with this she is worse from

a jar.

Many of the Bell. cases cannot lie down,

because of the stretching of the abdominal muscles. When they lie

down they must draw up the limbs to relax those muscles. Must

sit, or take a flexed posture.

Great induration; hard as a stone. Bell. will stop

the pain in the breast in a few hours. It will stop that

congestion, and will relieve all sufferings.

When the mammary glands are inflammed without any general

symptoms, but merely an inflammation of the glands give

The woman flows too much at the menstrual period; too long, and,

of course, this naturally brings her around too soon. Often

It is inimical to

*Bryonia, and should not be given immediately before or after

that medicine.

Calc. also corresponds to ailments following

losses of fluids, such as from self-abuse, and it corresponds to

a form of menorrhagia, the flow being excessive and the intervals

shortened. Periods return too soon after excitement. There is

often pain in the breasts before the flow commences, as with

*Conium. But if the menses are scanty or absent, and the *Calc.

characteristics of chilliness and cold, clammy feet are present,

*Calc. will still be the remedy.

neuralgia of the (<)ovaries,(>) and in inflammation of the (<)uterus.(>)

It is also suitable

in girls at puberty when the time for the first menstrual flow to

appear has come, but it does not come. She goes on to 15, l6, I7

or 18 without development, the breasts do not enlarge, the

ovaries do not perform their functions. When the symptoms agree

Lyc. establishes a reaction, the breasts begin to grow, the

womanly bearing begins to come, and the child becomes a woman

It

has a wonderful power for developing, and in that respect it is

very much like (<)Calc. phos.(>) "Discharge of flatus from the

vagina." "Varices of the genital."

KENT

Wandering features in the mental sphere,

wandering and alternating states. Cannot collect the thoughts.
She wants to leave everything as soon as it is commenced, a
condition of irresolution common to quite a number of remedies.

She is impressed with the idea that all she says is not so,
thinks everything she says is a lie, as if there is no reality in
the things that be. In this it is somewhat analogous to
(<)Alumina,(>) in which the patient feels as if someone else and not
himself were saying everything, a lack of consciousness of the
reality of things.

Every time a symptom appears she thinks it is a settled

disease; fear and anxiety that some horrible disease has come
upon her, a delusion that she was suppurating and in a loathsome
state; infested with snakes. Horrible sights are presented to the
mental vision, not always snakes, and she fears the objects will
take form and present themselves to her eyes. This is analogous
to (<)Lach.,(>) which has the feeling that the atmosphere is full of
hovering spirits, although he never sees them.

She cannot bear to be alone.

FEMALE

Severe
pain in the region of the right ovary, ameliorated by the flow of
bright red blood, is again somewhat like (<)Lach.(>) These pains take
alternate sides. (<)Zinc.(>) also has pain in the ovaries ameliorated
by the flow; she never feels well except when menstruating;
hysterical at all other times but well at the menstrual period,
is (<)Zinc.(>)
Sore throat beginning and ending
with the menstrual period. (<)Mag. carb.(>) has sore throat before
the menstrual period and (<)Calc. c.(>) has cured painful throat when
menstruating.

Escape of gas from the vagina. The fermentation of mucus and

other substances in the bladder causing the escape of gas when
urinating is found only under (<)Sars.;(>) the urine flows with a
loud noise. It is not uncommon for a child to break wind when
urinating, and the urine is passed with a gurgling noise; this is
cured by (<)Sars.(>)

Much trouble with the mammae; they feel as if they would

suppurate. When a mother has lost her infant and it is necessary
to dry up the milk, Lac c. and (<)Puls.(>) are the best remedies for
this purpose, when no symptoms are present.
