Hi,

Here is an excerpt from Anshutze's "New, OLd, and Forgotten Remedies" (from
Encyclopedia Homeopathica):

Aggravated symptomatology
- From all the sources which I have been able to find, the following seem
to be the symptoms caused by the drug :
- Sudden loss of power in the lower extremities from the waist down.
- Tremulous, tottering gait.
- Great exaggeration of the reflexes.
- Stiffness and lameness of the ankles and knees.
- Excessive rigidity of the legs; flexion difficult; spastic gait, the legs
becoming interlocked, and walking is difficult or impossible.
- Sudden onset of the trouble and apparent aggravation in cold and damp
weather.
- Amaciation of the gluteal muscles also observed.
- Those having taken it walked on the metatarso-phalageal articulation, the
heel not touching the ground.
- Impossible to stand steady; swayed from side to side, but closing the
eyes had no effect.
- This with the exaggerated reflexes would exclude its use in locomotor
ataxia.
- Debility and tremors of the legs.
- Rigidity of the abductors of the thighs
- Staggering gait, with eyes fixed on the floor.
- Could not extend or cross the legs when sitting.
- Sensibility unimpaired.

Peace,
Gregory
