Histamine.
This is from a Links article. There is more but it is difficult to copy and paste. It is also in Julian’s MM – see below.

Jayesh Shah, India.
Case 1 In May 1991 a man, aged 28 consulted me for severe allergic problems. He complained of a chronically blocked nose, paroxysms of violent sneezing and recurring colds. The other problems he had were excessive ove rweight and alcoholism.
He had a peculiar mental make-up. His mind would function only when he was moving. One of his main compulsions in life was to move! He was extremely restless and was a compulsive jogger. He jogged for twelve kilometres a day and always kept on the move. Even when he was at work, he was unable to sit at his table. He had to keep walking up and down constantly. Things got difficult because his mind stopped working when he was at rest. His occupation of advertising demands a lot of creativity in composing effective advertisements. He narrated to me an incident when his boss gave him an advertising assignment. He hurriedly worked his way through the data while wandering about in the office corridors and soon reported back to the boss to submit his composition. The b oss was taken aback in disbelief and requested our patient to spend more time on such an important project. He was wondering: 'How could someone finish such a difficult job in just half an hour without even sitting at his desk. However, on the patient's insistence, the boss examined the papers and was surprised to find them perfect.
This funny kind of restlessness made the patient wander about constantly.
There were times when he would sit on the upper deck of a double-decker bus and go from one end of the city to the other two to three times a day! His mind would work as long as the bus was in motion and he would be impatient and irritable when the bus halted at bus stops and traffic signa ls. Jogging was the only thing that kept him happy, healthy, and creative. Many brilliant ideas came to him only when he was in motion. Another expression of this restlessness was a desire for travelling, mountain climbing, hiking and all kind of activities involving walking or running. He once managed to hike all the way to Tiber all alone! He was extremely impulsive, unpredictable and erratic in his day to day operations. His impulsiveness, coupled with his impatience, resulted in a very quarrelsome attitude.
He became extremely upset if his friends were late for an appointment. This irritation was so great that he seriously reconsidered his relationship and friendship just because the friend was fifteen minutes late. Over a period of time, he had broken up with all of his friends. He had a tendency to depressive states and in these phases of depression he was contemptuous about himself and rather self-destructive, with an excessive use of alcohol and food and no exercise at all. This kind of disposition made it impossible for him to hold down any job in India. He frequently ended up in dispute with his bosses, forcing him to quit the job. Also, the advertisements he composed were on a totally different wavelength and not tuned into the needs of the Indian companies.
One of his bosses, an important man in the Indian advertising scene, called him a 'cultural misfit'. In spite of this, his work was highly appreciated and he received some awards when working in Hong Kong. It was quite peculiar that such a restless man could be so successful. But he was intellectually sharp and quick to act. Right from his childhood, he was extremely estranged from his parents. He had the feeling they loved his sister more. Over a period of time, he suppressed all his feelings and b ecame totally introverted and reserved. He refused to join his father in business and always felt that his father did not appreciate or encourage him.
He narrated one incident when he was fourteen and suffered a deep, painful cut on the sole of his foot. Even though he had great fear of going to the doctor to have his wound stitched, he did not inform his parents about this injury. Instead he took his servant along with him to the doctor. He pretended as if nothing was wrong with him and somehow managed to hide all his pain and suffering. Although it was very painful, he walked with his shoes on and his parents never knew about his injury.
One dream that he often got was of riots. He is escaping a riot situation where he is crossing a huge city bridge and he sees a mass of chaotic, violent and destru ctive people who are setting everything on fire. He finds himself trapped, unable to drive on or retreat. He has to jump off the bridge in a desperate bid to save himself and he wakes up with a jerk.
When studying this case, I felt that this man was in a very peculiar state and that I had no experience with the remedy he seemed to be needing.I tried to perceive and understand what was the most peculiar symptom of the case. I concluded that the restlessness and compulsion to move were the most significant individualising features of his state.
There were two rubrics which enthused me to think of Histamine.
*Mind; Wander, ameliorates mental symptoms *Mind; Walk, walking hard ameliorates mental symptoms.
I tried to study the other rubrics and provings of this remedy from Julian's 'Materia medica of new Remedies', 'Hahnemanian Provings' by James Stephenson and rubrics from the Synthetic Repertory.
The following are other important rubrics of Histamine from the Synthetic Repertory.
*Mind; Anxiety, rest during, walking while ameliorates *Mind; Sadness, walking ameliorates *Mind; Restlessness, nervousness, waiting during *Mind; Impatience, Irritability trifles, from *Mind; Quarrelsome, scolding.
Important symptoms from the other books are: Sensitive to slightest trifles. Impatient, uneasy, wit h need to move from one place to another aimlessly. Melancholic, sad, prostration which disappears by forced walking. Waiting makes him particularly nervous, needs to walk up and down. The pace of this remedy is similar to Aconite and Belladonna. The dream signifies a fiery, dangerous, 'make-it-or-break-it'
kind of situation. A similar dream of danger was reported in the follow-up.
There is excitement and activity that is expressed as a desire for hard walking, restlessness when waiting, mental symptoms ameliorated by wandering, etc.
It is one of the most restless remedy-states I have ever encountered. There is an element of destruction in the form of abrupt and quarrelsome attitude in relationships. In the t wo cases of Histamine I have treated successfully, there was a very sharp intellect with this kind of volatile temperament. The effect of the remedy was very instantaneous after the first dose of Histamine C200.

Does anyone have proving information (or clinical experiences to share) for histaminum? It came up very high in an analysis where mental restlessness is a key factor – so I would love to earn more about the character or expression of restlessness the proving brought up – and any physical symptoms that were produced as well.
Thank you in advance.
