Can anyone find a rubric for "head feels too heavy for her neck?"
Thanks

delusion, head is too heavy

then there's the thing with Cyclamen making them hang their head somewhat, but can't think of the rubric

the 'heady heavy' rubric is huge

there is 'paralytic weakness of neck'

but the most useful could be 'head, unable to hold up'

and the most specific would be 'back, neck too thin and weak to support head' = Calc phos.

Those are really helpful Joy - thanks. The weakness of neck is relevant as it is a 74 yr old woman with a degenerative spine so why didn't I think of that one!! The- head unable to hold up- at least has the remedy in that I gave her. I think I have removed a layer with the last Rx and this is what has emerged as she has had it before.

Please see if the following is of any use
Reference : Repertory of Hering's Guiding Symptoms of our Materia Medica, Calvin B.Knerr, B Jain Publishers, India.
Chapter 3, Inner Head, Page number 115, right column
1. Head Heaviness; with weakness of cervical muscles - cocculus indicus
2. Head Heaviness; as if it would be drawn backward by a weight in nape of neck - Phellandrium aquaticum
And if you find this useful, please let me know the follow-up, so that i shall also learn
Yours truly
