online case JB/Aug.02

[Joy Lucas]

Dear Julie,

Thanks for your case.

I think Crot-H. is remedy worth looking at but I would like to ask a few
questions.

Where does the ringworm occur?

When does it occur - season, is there periodicity etc?

Can you describe the pain in the neck and shoulder and now the wrist and
hand?

For now though Crot. H....

This remedy can have alternate aspects to it in as much as it can be
emotionally either compliant and sympathetic or extremely cross, irritable
and dictatorial. There can be rapid mood swings between the two or just one
sided. They can present something like a Phosphorous or a Nux Vomica.

Whichever is the case they also show fear, anxiety. They like to be alone
and they are suspicious.

Phatak says "Antipathy towards family, cross and irritable"

Numbness of limbs (although usually right sided), first one and then the
other. Pain in top of shoulders, paralysis of left hand and leg, cannot keep
legs still, (you could extend this restlessness to other parts of the body).

Sleepless from nervous agitation.

Prostate and bladder problems

Anxious laboured breathing.

Cough usually has bloody sputum.

Craving for pork

Not sure how the ringworm would fit in though
Might be worth reading about, but there are a few other remedies that might
fit and I would appreciate a bit more information.

Best wishes, Joy Lucas
