blindness for five minutes. The right hand is benumbed; a stitch is felt
through the thickness of the metacarpus. Smarting under the nails. 225.
Painful drawing at the inner part of the arm, from the axilla to the

bled. Small red tetter at the corner of the right nostril, spreading
to the cheek, with tickling. Stoppage of the nostrils, one has to
breathe by the mouth. Suffocative oppression while eating. 230. Violent
distress throughout the thoracic viscera. Cyanosis and reddish spots of
the extremities. Violent itching under the axilla, and appearance of a
tetter. The blood rushes to the right hand, which is of a violet color
and as if paralysed. Shuddering up to the shoulder when dipping the
hand in water. 235. The arm and hand are swollen, blueish, and covered
with red spots, likewise the right leg and foot. Cramps in the whole of
the right side. Cramps in the calves. Swelling of the stomach. Acute
lancinations, from time to time, in the fourth toe of the left foot, as

Fruit and cold drinks lie in the stomach like ice. Sudden colic, with
diarrhœa. Lancinations and stitches in the upper part of each lung.

the nose to the ear. Sensitiveness in the pit of the stomach. 250. The
tips of the fingers peel off, which is painful. Redness and pain under
the nails, the parts look as if raw. Biting one’s hand during sleep,
without waking. Pressure between the shoulders. Liquids descend in the
œsophagus with a sound like glou-glou. 255. The nose continues to swell
and the pain extends to the ear. Prickling in the eyebrows, especially
the left. Acute pain in the iliac bone, on the right side, as though the
crest were swollen and the periosteum inflamed. The right leg up to the
knee is cold as ice. Frontal headache. 260. Discharge of black, liquid
blood from the bowels. Borborygmi and noisy flatulence. Constriction of
the sphincter, a quarter of an hour after the discharge. The peristaltic
