Hahnemann's Organon of Medicine - Aphorism 88

[Ardavan Shahrdar]

Hahnemann's Organon of Medicine
*******************************

Aphorism 88:

'If in these voluntary details nothing has been
mentioned respecting several parts or functions of the
body or his metal state, the physician asks what more
can be told in regard to these parts and these
functions, or the state of his disposition or mind1,
but in doing this he only makes use of general
expressions, in order that his informants may be
obliged to enter into special details concerning them.
Footnote:

1 For example what was the character of his stools?
How does he pass his water? How is it with his day and
night sleep? What is the state of his disposition, his
humor, his memory? How about the thirst? What sort of
taste has he in his mouth? What kinds of food and
drink are most relished? What are most repugnant to
him? Has each its full natural taste, or some other
unusual taste? How does he feel after eating or
drinking? Has he anything to tell about the head, the
limbs or the abdomen?'
