Case

A man, aged 28, consulted me in June 1990, with the complaint of severe headaches. These headaches started after an injury following malaria, six months previously. There was a sudden onset of severe headaches. His eyes would become small and his face swollen. The pain would compel him to take large doses of pain killers. There were times when he took four to six Paracetamol to get relief. Very often these pains would not respond even to stronger pain killers. His concomitant mental state was very peculiar and intense. He was so sensitive that he would be offended by the least criticism.

Eventually he became so sensitive that he would feel and imagine that people were being harsh to him. For example, he reacted with a lot of anger and excitement at the lunch table when his wife asked him: 'Tell me quickly what you want for dinner.' He misunderstood this, thinking he was being forced to eat quickly. He flared up with red eyes and was about to get up from the table in utter frustration. He narrated many examples where his day-to-day life was greatly affected because of this excitability.

There are two incidences worth mentioning that will clearly help us to understand the finer dimensions of this sensitivity.

Once he was accompanying his father on a business trip for the purpose of marketing their product. The client made a casual remark: 'Your product is not known to us. We have not heard of your brand.' Such a situation is very common when you visit a new client, however, his reaction was very intense.

It was interesting to perceive his reaction.

'I felt like telling him right to his face that we were not going to supply him with any material in the future. I was damn angry. When you don't know anything about technology how can you talk to me like this! My hands were shivering and I broke into a cold sweat with a feeling as if life was leaving my body. The entire incident took less than ten minutes. I felt like leaving his office immediately with a feeling that, if he came to my office, I would talk to him as rudely and in the same way as he had spoken to me. I will show him how to talk to people! He was really rude. Even now I still have the feeling that, at least once, I'll behave with him in the same way as he behaved with me. I was telling my father, we should not have such type of customers. You should have gotten up with me.

That fellow also realised that I was angry and he became a bit softer. He cooled down and then he listened to our talk and looked at our reports and also asked for samples. I left his office and immediately got a severe headache. Even today that feeling is there.'
This state existed prior to the injury and the malaria. However, the malaria and injury seem to have aggravated his state. I perceived that he had been in this state for a long time, since he narrated an incident which occurred long before the malaria, during his days in college. His professor, although reluctantly, agreed to give a letter of recommendation.

The professor did not have a good impression or image of our patient. Hence he gave him the certificate which rated him as a student of average intelligent. Knowing the nature of the professor he opened the letter and read the recommendation. He was extremely angry and just tore it up. He felt hurt and bitterly let down. In his words: 'Even today if I see him in the library, I get angry. My eyes become red with anger. I feel like telling him, you have not done justice to me. I will see you whenever we come face to face. I will pull you down. I see myself rise so high thatI can feel him to be very small.... nobody is giving importance to him. One day, in a seminar, when we meet face to face, somewhere in pubic, I will prove myself so much better that nobody will look at him again. I will see that he doesn't get any importance. I will make him feel that there is something wrong with him. At least once. I will take revenge for the way he treated me.'
Since then, he has almost became a bookworm with a constant desire to gain as much knowledge as he can. He spends most of his time in the library, reading and studying, with a great ambition to be a knowledgeable, learned person. He theorises and imagines how his life is going to be, what sort of a person he aspires to become. In his words: 'I get flighty thoughts, like being in the driver's seat in business. I am supposed to be a big business man with many foreign collaborators. I will head them all. I will be known to industry people as a technically knowledgeable man. People will come to me for guidance. I compare myself to big companies, that kind of fantasies.

I will be highly competitive, making better products than these companies.

It is not the money, but making a big name. I will have an office with grand furniture.'
He had fantasised a complete picture of his image and achievements, right up to the minute details of his office furniture. He is very hardworking and industrious and feels happy only when he has worked hard.

The other side of him was weak, faint-hearted and cowardly. The sight of a fatal accident affected him so profoundly that he was beside himself for days. Even after some months, he was afraid of passing by the site of the accident. He feels weak when passing by the site of the accident. He feels weak and faint in his legs, as if they will give way. He would be extremely anxious as if anticipating bad news. Any setbacks in his business, or a sickness in the family would make him feel very faint and nervous. During these phases of excitement he has a flow of thoughts and gets headaches. He feels better only by drinking coffee.

He was highly sensitive to coffee. Drinking coffee ameliorated his excitement and calmed him down. Or it got him excited, thoughtful and in a sleepless state if he was calm. Hence he needed coffee only when he was in a state of excitement.

Analysis One expression he used very often was 'damn angry'. I was sure this expression must have a lot to do with his state. The word 'damn' is related to 'curse' 'condemn' 'hatefulness' (damnable). The important traits of the patient were: *Malice - revengeful with excessive thoughts of revenge * Excitable * Very sensitive, offended easily * Hatred * Faint-hearted * Fancies exaltation of * Theorising-planning * Industrious * Serious * Sensitivity to coffee

When analysing and evaluating the case, I was reflecting on these traits and searching for a remedy which could produce this kind of a highly sensitive, excitable and malicious state. I was convinced that the remedy he needed was .............after I referred and studied the rubric: 'Hatred, has bitter feeling for slight offense'.

Embittered - offences from slight. Let us understand the meaning of this rubric.

a) Hatred - Hatred means having a strong dislike, bear malice and have an ill-will for someone.

b) Bitter means very virulent, biting harsh feelings.

c) Slight - means rather flimsy, small amount, unimportant, trifling.

d) Offence - Aggressive action.

This rubric means to have hatred, i.e. malice, and very strong dislike and ill-will, and to have very virulent, biting harsh feelings for unimportant, trivial, negligible, aggressive acts. These patients are highly sensitive to any offences. Over a period of time, they develop a delusion that people are offending them on purpose, humiliating them and persecuting them. It seems as if they are reacting to a situation where they are persistently and chronically put down. Also there is a feeling of being 'smalled' in presence of others under such circumstances. He suffers this intense humiliation with a totally helpless feeling because of his cowardice and also his vulnerable, small status. He reacts with intense bitterness for this offence and develops a state of hatred and desire to avenge this humiliation. The only way he can do this is by theorising in his mind an inverse situation in which he can put his offenders down. The ambitious and industrious nature of these patients stems from the hope and desire to become big so that they are no longer vulnerable to such indignation or to be enabled to avenge the insults. Somehow the state has a lot to do with coffee. In this particular case, an extreme sensitivity to coffee was more marked than the craving for coffee. The modality of the chill in malaria was 3 p.m. Also, Clarke has compared the excitability of ......... with Nux Vomica. It was interesting to note that ...... belongs to the Ruta family and is related to injuries.

Clarke has described the pusillanimity and want of self-confidence in ......... The dictionary meaning of pusillanimous is 'mean spirited'
and also 'faint-hearted'. It is strange that both the meanings seemed to apply to this case. The important rubric showing various aspects of ......... are as follows:
* Hatred, bitter feelings for slight offences * Embittered, exasperated offences from slight * Ailments, insults of offences (from 'Complete Repertory') *Offended easily * Jesting, joke cannot take a

These rubrics give us the idea of the sensitivity and the bitter feelings of .............

The rubrics showing the timidity and pusillanimity are: * Startled, sleep during * Fear of death from heart attack in dyspepsia * Fear, death of, heart symptoms during * Anxiety, paroxysms, attacks of * Anxiety with weakness * Cowardice * Frightened easily, trifles at * Anxiety in bed, wake up as if he would never *Delusions, imaginations, fainting, faintness of

The rubrics showing activity of the mind are: * Activity, increased excessively * Delusion, fancy of * Memory active *Plans, making many * Thoughts, clearness of * Thoughts, persistent * Rapid, quick, rush, flow of, wandering thoughts * Theorising

The rubrics, I suggest for further addition in the repertory are: * Thoughts, malicious * Ailments, injury * Head, pain, anger, vexation from * Ailments, indignation * Offended easily, (my suggestion is to make ........in bold marks in this rubric and put 'Embittered from slight offense' as a very important cross reference to this rubric).

He was give one dose of ............. on 15 June, 1990. He responded immediately to the dose and reported considerable amelioration in his headaches within one week. In the second week after the remedy, he came down with an attack of intermittent fever. During this fever, which lasted for two weeks, he was put on placebo. The blood work did not show malaria parasites. This whole episode was much less intense compared to his previous attacks of malaria in which he suffered for almost six months with frequent chills and extreme weakness. I followed his case from 1990 to 1995 and he has reported total amelioration in his mental-emotional state and no recurrence of headaches or malaria. It was exciting to see a single dose of the remedy produce such a long lasting cure.

This remedy was omitted by TF Allen in his American
edition of The Therapeutic Pocket Book. Purely because
of some spurious bark being sold in the market which
had its own casualties. The German Govt also by that
time had banned this remedy due to the spurious bark.
