Dear Lisa, as you requested a write up of Natrum Carb. here is my brief
offering.
The theme running through Nat Carb is SEPARATION & DIVISION
SEPARATION = CRACKS - Natrum Carb is the alkaline constituent of soap which
dries and cracks the skin - a cake of soap left to dry always cracks open -
there are also ulcers.
Separation of the emotions - either profound sadness, joyful talkativeness
or spiteful - not alternately as in some other remedies, although > eating, there is often
extreme hunger and can be greedy, <<< milk, there is lots of acidity,
distention and flatulence, they are very thirsty, chronic liver ailments
(discharges are usually yellow), stool like sheep's dung, or diarrhoea which
is sudden and gushing.
Catarrh and coughs - continual, << change of temperatures, expectoration is
yellow/green, lots of mucous rattling.
Rheumatics <<< any exertion, feels rigid, great weakness, contraction of
muscles and tendons, dislocations (more separation!)
Skin - rough, dry and chapped and cracked - anywhere but especially on feet
and between toes, ulcers, very sweaty, itching all over (secretion of
bile??)
Sleep - vivid dreams, dreams of floods, robbers, of being pursued, death,
travelling.
Usually chilly but << sun
Hope you find this interesting
Best wishes, Joy Lucas
