Re: Thea
Dear All,
Following is a nice Thea chinensis case from
Hahnemannian Advocate (From the precious software of
EH) as an addendum to Joy's marvellous presenation.
Kind regards,
Ardavan
'Miss W. A medical student; brunette. Nervobilious
temperament; 24 years of age. During the days
preceding the final examinations had been studying
very hard, and was very anxious about her "percentums"
and feared failure in some of the studies. Became
sleepless and restless. On the afternoon of the third
day of examination, while in the class, she suddenly
became hysterical, laughing, crying, a strong desire
to talk and do "something foolish;" face flushed, and
feeling of fullness and heat, and nearly fell from her
seat with faintness. Was assisted from the room and to
a couch; the feeling of anxiety and dread of failure
continued; also that she would do something foolish,
and was fully conscious of her laughter and tears, and
realized that it was hysterical.
After two or three hours she was able with assistance
to walk to her home, feeling giddy or drunken; when
she attempted to tell her mother of her experience,
there came on wild weeping and profuse tears; but even
as she wept, she laughed to think how foolish or
ridiculous it was to weep. After being helped to bed,
she discovered that she was "flowing" or remembered
that an hour or two previously she had felt a sudden
gush of warm fluid, and the fear that she had
urinated, did not add to the comfort of her mind, when
at the college, and she could not then investigate
because of the presence of students. She now found her
clothing and limbs soiled with blood, but no flowing.
A restless, hysterical and sleepless night followed.
She had refused any medicine from the house physician
at the college, or from home friends, being under my
treatment. (I had given her a day or two before this a
dose of Lac defloratumcm). I saw her on the next day
twenty-four hours after the attack in the school room.
I now learned for the first time of her habit of
excessive tea drinking, which in the last two weeks
had been carried to a degree of intemperance, working
at her studies until late at night, and "keeping up"
on strong tea. She was very pale, and also very weak,
hollow-eyed, cold, clammy hands and feet, and still
close to the hysterical weeping and tearfulness. I
gave her a dose of Theadmm (Swan) and waited. In an
hour she was wonderfully calmed, and later slept for
several hours, to awake in the morning with a good
appetite, and with no other symptoms than a languid
tiredness, which passed away in a day or two.' (From
EH)

Re: Thea
Hi, Joy.
Nice write-up of Thea.
It was a pleasant surprise to see the words to that song -- it's been a long time. You know a second verse that I never learned, too. (we never did the reverse motions, and I always wondered why righthanders should seemingly be favored by the song.... even though I'm sort of right handed, at least enough not to be called a "leftie.")

Re: Thea
Dear Joan,
Interesting!! Looking in Allen's Ency. It looks as if Thea C is black tea and Thea S - china green tea. However it also looks as if they are interchangeable as far as proving symptoms are concerned!!
