Hi,
A few cases reported cured with this remedy.

Case 57
-October 23, 1867. Amies, boy ęt. 9, light complexion, when he consulted me
he had the following symptoms: constant jerking his head to the right side,
occasionally drops his head suddenly on his shoulder, sometimes he twists
his head around to the right side. Twitching in the muscles of the back and
arms; he complains of pains in the knees when walking. When he attempts to
control these involuntary motions the respiratory muscles are affected to
such an extent that he cannot get his breath, until he takes a deep
inspiration.
Case 58.
—A young girl, ęt. 15. Twitches of the muscles of the face, and of the upper
extremities; she puts out her tongue with great difficulty; convulsive
movements of the shoulders, she keeps her hands in constant motion; gait
unsteady; mouth and eyes open and shut in rapid succession, over which she
has no control. It is with difficulty that she can carry any thing to her
mouth. Her lower extremities are constantly in motion while sitting. She
drags her legs when she walks.
In both of these cases I gave XXX , and both cases were cured radically with
only two packages of powders, nine powders in each; directed to take three
each day, morning, noon, and evening.
I am now treating another case of a boy about seven years old, who has been
affected for over a year, and has been under Homopathic treatment during
this time by a physician in this city.
I will also remark that the medicine I employ is prepared by macerating the
whole ? XXX in alcohol.
J. C. HOUARD, M. D., Phil

with best wishes,
