Hi Everyone:
Anyone have any info on a small remedy called "Epigaea repens"? I came across it looking for a remedy for a cat that continues to get urinary blockages quiet frequently. It came up in my sort but I then couldn't find a lot more info on it except it is for chronic cystitis & Dysuria with gravel and renal calculi. Anyone every use it or know any of the mentals about it? Thanks.

And its common name is Gravel Weed!! The sources are Hale and Anshutz I
believe. But I wouldn't worry too much about the lack of M/E symptoms when
the physical picture is so clear.

There is tenesmus after urination, dysuria, fine sand in the urine that is
brown, burning when urinating, uric acid diathesis, pyelitis, involuntary
urination, strange noises in the bowels, blood in the urine, muco purulent
urine.

This remedy contains Formic acid and Arbutin (Arbutus is also part of the
erica family).

Compare with arbutus, uva, lyc, par, urtica, calc ren and chim.

Hope useful, best, Joy
