Causticum (was: Help with possible epilepsy case?)

[Celia M. Malm]

I would love to hear more about Causticum. The description in Boericke isn't
matching her, but I know that it can be difficult to get a full remedy
picture from the MM, as opposed to hearing about actual cases that were
helped by the remedy. At least, I always find that's how it is for me.

So yes, please, does anyone have relevant cases that were cured by
Causticum? Any better descriptions of what you'd see in a Causticum child?
Cee

For me it was the following that suggested Causticum

restless
slowness in learning to talk (although I think you wrote slowness in learning to read, but
there is a rigid/stubborn nature to causticum and this includes learning capacity)
epilepsy < loss of sleep
involuntary urination
sensation as if the legs are 'going to sleep' - a kind of paralysis
whiny moods

but if you can't see this rx it seems pointless giving it

how about seeing it as though the convulsion begins in the legs, as though that is where
the aura is, or possibly aura ascending, that might give more rx ideas

maybe she is in a Silica state - very headstrong and stubborn, epilepsy, doesn't like to be
bossed around because they need to be able to bend and yield and do their own thing
(part of the stubborness) involuntary urination, very sensitive to stimuli (following your
lead on the possible magnetic fields etc - Silica absorbs everything especially water). Just a
few thoughts. Joy
