Hello Tony,

I totally agree, but I do not think that I can do anythong about it.
Lately she followed some kind of heavy diet (also from some kind of clinic).
this diet went together with pills and injections.
I advised against it (honestly I was also afraid that it might confuse my
Nux- V, which I gave her about 6 months ago)
She did it anyway and (at the moment) there are no complaints (but we never
know what will happen later on, do we?)
Anyway I am concidering repeating the Nux-v. Last time I gave 1x C200, which
worked beautiful. Do I now repeat in the same
potention?

Regards, Willy

Dear Willy,
Well I would strongly advise against the Botox etc.
injections, as you might find she is wanting treatment for the aftermath of
that! There are much better and more natural remedies for wrinkles, a simple
one is daily massage with a natural-based moisturising cream - there may be
more effective natural remedies also, or even a Homoeopathic anti-wrinkle
cream. I think such a thing exists, but have no details ATM, perhaps another
Minutus subscriber knows of this?

Always repeat in the same potency when successful to see if that potency has finished its action.

I had thought of Camphor also prior to reading Tony's post, so count two
votes. Camphor is inveterately cold; PARANOIC (excessive concern about
health and appearance; claustrophobia, suffocation may be the outlets for
that tendency in this case); desires company, and has urinary tract
problems. Dr. J comments about the paradox of working in a plane and yet
being claustrophobic in elevators, a bit inconsistent and perhaps
paradoxical. Camphor is in this rubric (Complete 2000):

GENERALITIES; CONTRADICTORY and alternating states (K1351, SRII-95, G1115):
abrot., aloe, alum., ambr., apoc., arn., ars., bell., berb., bry., camph.,
carc., caust., chin., choc., cimic., croc., croto-t., dulc., graph., Ign.,
kali-bi., kali-c., lac-c., lach., lyc., mosch., nat-m., op., plat., plb.,
podo., Puls., rhus-t., sanic., sep., staph., thuj., Tub., valer.

It has chronic obstinate constipation (as well as its opposite as in
cholera, for which it is a prophylactic upon first symptom). Definitely
the first one to be ruled out when the chief complaint is coldness, and pt.
feels cold to the touch as if headed toward death. Hahnemann suggests that
Camphor is sort of an amorphous totality ("The action of Camphora is very
puzzling and difficult of investigation." [Hahnemann]) --so if you have the
basics of a difficult case even without confirmatory then it may be worth "a
go" as they say in aussieland. See the mm of camphor below. Hope this
helpful.

REGION
MIND. CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM. CIRCULATION. DIGESTIVE TRACT. Urinary
organs. Nose. * Left side. Right side.
LEADING SYMPTOMS
M Sense of isolation.
Lonely, alienated and alone; 'left out in the cold.'
Fear of being punished. [Knerr]
Delusion he himself was dead.
"The external world existed for me no longer. Š I was alone in the
great universe, the last of all things. I was the final and solitary
fragment of the whole creation. There was no other feeling in my soul than
that of my hopeless, endless damnation." [Allen]
M FEAR of being ALONE.
Fear in the DARK.
"Cries for help, takes hold of others, will not be left alone."
[Hering]
M Feeling at night as if he could fly or as if he were drawn into the
air in spite of himself.
"Thought he was higher than the houses and suffered at the thought
of the disadvantages of his height; felt better by striking himself on the
head."
"Dread of being pulled upward." [Allen]
Sickening sensation of swinging when in bed.
M VEXED BY WANT OF SYMPATHY. [Knerr]
M Contrary. Tendency to mania and rage.
"Mania to dispute; self-willed. Quarrelsome and combative."
Rage.
& Scratching, biting, spitting, scolding and tearing.
M Nihilistic, negative, hopeless, feels cut-off. 'Cold-hearted.'
'Leaves me cold.'
All the external objects are repulsive to him, and excite his
ill-humour.
" I sank back upon the bed, believing that I was the spirit of evil in
a world forsaken of God. ŠI tried to pray, but the words sounded hollow from
my chest, like reverberations from a cracked vessel. Š And then came doubts
about my doctrinal views, for I had never been of strong faith. Š In my
ever-growing terror I sought to recall sensation, even if it were pain, and
tore the skin of my face and hands, but it was useless; I felt no more."
[Allen]
M "Corresponds to authoritarian personalities, jealous individuals
who fear neither God nor humankind [sometimes even driven to murder, if need
be]. Even though they have chosen to 'live by the sword,' they still fear
death." [Grandgeorge]
M Afraid of his own thoughts; wants to be diverted from thoughts of
himself.
"Felt as if he ought to kill someone [not any of his own family!]
when in the street." [Allen]
"Monomania, with horrible visions and torturing thoughts about
religion, which he cannot shake off, although he is conscious that they are
morbid; worse at night." [Hering]
M "We also have incessant fits of crying in Camphor, which the
patient is hardly able to explain. The whole condition is one of
indescribable wretchedness." [Choudhuri]
M Better Thinking of complaints.
"Most pains are felt during a half-conscious condition, and
disappear when thinking of them." [Clarke]
"Sensation of constriction in the brain, esp. in the cerebellum;
the pain ceases when he thinks of it." [Lippe]
M Aversion to light. Objects appear too bright and shining.

I agree with Dr R, that her work given her fear of enclosed spaces appears a bit contradictory and worth exploring a bit. To what extent is a fear of the dark involved or is she afraid of the dark?? Why did she choose her career? What does she like or dislike about it?

Her fear of enclosed spaces, desire to be magnetized, history of being an "ideal child," anxiety about her image (the thoughts about Botox, worries about wrinkles, etc... ), somnambulism (that's what I understood when you said she went to bathroom during the night but was still asleep -- also kind of unusual), and extreme chilliness with shivering at least make one think of Silica as a remedy worth exploring, among others (although apparently, if she's really considering Botox injections, she's not unduly afraid of needles. It might be worth finding out if she would really have these shots and if not why not.)

What were the symptoms of the repeated cystitis when she was a child?

This rubric is small, and very definitely seems central and peculiar in the case -- might give some remedy clues:

CHILL - CHILLINESS - warm - room

ant-c. arg-n. carb-ac. cinnb. grat. iod. kali-br. lact. ozone Puls. SIL. symph.

Dear Willy

Try aconite 30 or 200.
(ailments from shock or fear)

I remember a case once of a woman being robbed at knife point. She suffered amennorrhea after that. All "indicated" rememdies failed (eg puls, sep, etc). This went on for about 3 months after the robbery. We finally traced the correct etiology.

One dose of Aconite 30 brought her period on the next day.

Hundreds of remedies are chilly. Even Pulsatilla, fear of suffocating, wants
to be the eternal child, fears of enclosed spaces, has a cold nose (as does
Camphor), our most contradictory remedy (as Dr Roz pointed out, paradox),
etc etc that pertain to the case - but then she could be Platina, wanting
eternal youth, so concerned about what she looks like, chilly, constipated,
etc.

One of the most important keynotes of Camphor is that although very chilly
they cannot stand to have a lot of covers on them.

Such disparate remedies - the case needs to be taken fully and properly.

In addition to all the remedies discussed, I looked at Mentha Piperita, because I remember that it has a issue with wanting to remain forever young – but I cannot locate now the source of this. Instead, I found 2 items which maybe interesting for this case:
Eager for work, and dispatches it quickly (soon).
Stimulates the cold-perceiving nerves, so just after taking it, a current of air at the ordinary temperature seems cold.
Any comments?

The COLDNESS of this rx is usually in connection with some respiratory
ailment such as a cough and it is related to Rumex which has a similar
exciting cause.

The menthas are part of the labiatae family and there is a lot of issues to
do with female sexuality and possibly the need to be glamourous relates to
this. Very passionate remedy, they need to be busy all the time as well and
need lots of excitement (perhaps the flying supplies that). Very interesting
choice (if the rest of the case fits).

Best wishes, Joy

Dear everybody,

I thank you very very much for all reactions. Not alone about the remedies
which I will start to study seriously, but also about the case taking and
repertorisation. As I said before, I am a beginner and I was stuck because I
felt I missed something or did something wrong. I understand that I have to
go much deeper and ask much "deeper". So thank you for showing me.
I will contact her (or try anyway) and try to get a clearer picture.

I will keep in touch,
Thanks again,
Willy
