Dr. B. Mure's materia medica : $b or, provings of the principal animal and vegetable poisons of the Brazilian Empire, and their application in the treatment of disease

Homeopathy; Materia medica, Vegetable
_Twenty-ninth day._—Sensation as if floating in the air. No sleep.
Starting in bed. 435. Sensation as if she were falling to the ground.
Lancinating pain under the heart; it continues, more or less feeble. Bad
digestion, the stomach feels yet full since supper.
_Thirtieth day._—Restless night, starting during sleep. Sense of
weariness in the lumbar region, all night. 440. Pain at the sacrum
as from a recent blow, this pain increases until four o’clock in the
evening. Pressure at the sacrum, with weariness in the left thigh.
Heaviness at the sacrum, when sitting. Sensation as if worms were
crawling in the posterior and external portion of the sacrum.
_Thirty-first day._—The pain at the sacrum obliges her to keep bent;
this pain shifts up and down from the sacrum to the left thigh, and is
accompanied by chattering of the teeth, which interrupts the speech, and
by cold hands and feet. 445. Quickly-passing tingling and twisting pain
in the right leg, at three o’clock in the evening, when lying. Twisting
pain extending from the sacrum into the left leg, and obliging her to lie
down. Every paroxysm of pain excites a nervous laugh, with moanings like
those of a sick child. Sensation as if dogs had bitten her where the pain
is felt. Sensation as if she had a plaster at the region of the kidneys.
450. The pain descends along the vastus externus muscle. Mottled face,
in the beginning of the proving it became red, now it is sometimes pale.
She cannot walk, without fearing to fall. No solicitude for the future,
generally speaking; tears with ennui; she thinks of death without fearing
it. The pain at the sacrum is worse when sitting, and obliges her to lie
down.
_Thirty-second day._—455. Sleep during the night, but the pain in the
renal region returns as soon as she rises from bed. The pain is seated
in the sacro-lumbar articulation; it extends to the glutei muscles with
sensation as though she were gnawed by dogs. At times the right thumb
feels numb.
_Thirty-third day._—Pain in the vertebral column. Sense of luxation, with
pain in the glutei muscles, of the same nature as the day previous.
_Thirty-fourth day._—460. Twisting sensation in the groin. Nosebleed,
when lying. Vesicular pimples all over, with red spots as if the skin had
been rubbed. Large blotches on the legs like mosquito-bites. Sensation
in the renal region and buttocks as if gnawed by dogs. 465. Continual
sneezing for two hours.
_Thirty-seventh day._—Sensation in the thighs, as if bitten by dogs. The
pimples increase during an increase of temperature, and leave large red
spots in the renal region and on the hips. Since she had the pains in the
sacrum, she is unable to sleep or rest on the stomach.
