HI All

would appreciate ideas urgently

****** main symptoms

- patient extremely itchy *****
- profuse heat and perspiration on upper body***** [only told this today]
- light touch of skin brings on goosebumps all over body
and in turn nausea ****
- small red spots that itch intensely*****
- clear fluid comes out when scratched
- slight scabs/yellow crusts after scratching
- worse morning and night
- worse hot weather
have used merc - responded well initially but did not alleviate completely
have used nit-ac - helped only a little
have used ars - made substantially worse
& staph - [hold at bay for a short time only]
lyc - didn't help

very responsible person who feels guilty for everything, also angry at treatment by husband over the years
says she needs to control everything

sometimes breasts itchy inside and nipples tender

itching cam on after confrontations with husband where she felt she could not express her anger.

- what do you suggest - psor, nux v., kali-c, iod?????

thanks for your thoughts

Beverly

Dear Beverly

Sounds very much like GRAPHITES to me.

Skin; DISCOLORATION, skin; red, spots; itching
Perspiration; SINGLE, parts; upper part of body (66)
Skin; ERUPTIONS; crusty; scratching, after
Otherwise have a look at MEZERIUM
"Mezereum is the vegetable analog of and is one of the most important antidotes to, Mercurius. Merc. and Mez. antidote one another. Mind, skin, eyes, mucous membranes and bones are affected in much the same way by both, they have the same sensitiveness to damp, cold and warmth and the same nightly aggravations."
