State of disposition/case presentation, Digest Number 303
Posted: Wed Nov 07, 2001 6:51 pm
Dear Co-Mintusists,
the remedy I would suggest in this case is Ignatia:
In the Repertory (HOMEOPATHIC MEDICAL REPERTORY by Robin Murphy,
Hahnemann Academy of North America) I found the following rubrics, which
suggest among others Ignatia.
- Eyes, pain (2 points for ign.)
- Mind, crying, alone (1 point for ign.)/she is crying before coming in
and after leaving/
- Mind, crying, when telling sickness (1 point)
- Mind, crying, music, from (1 point)
- Mind, crying, involuntary (3 points) /otherwise she wouldn't cry all
the time, at presence of other as well as alone, she seems not to be
able to stop weeping/
- Mind, delusion, wrong, he has done (2 points) /she thinks her husband
and her son are upset because of her weeping/
- Mind, wrong as if he had done sth. wrong (1 point)/troubling her
family with her sobbing/
- Emergency, shock, traumatic, mental (2 points)
- Generals, grief, death of loved ones (3 points)
A very precise description of state the patient is in can be found in
LECTURES ON HOMŒOPATHIC MATERIA MEDICA by JAMES TYLER KENT, A.M., M.D.
"A woman loses her child, or her husband. A sensitive, delicate woman,
and she suffers from this grief. She has headaches, trembles, is
excited, weeps, is sleepless; unable to control herself. In spite of her
best endeavors, her grief has simply torn her to pieces. She is unable
to control her emotions and her excitement.
Ignatia will quiet her and tide her over the present moment. In all of
these instances where all of these conditions brought on from such
troubles keep coming back, where your patient dwells upon them, dwells
upon the cause, and the state keeps recurring, Natrum mur. will finish
up the case. (...) It is the natural chronic of Ignatia. When the
troubles keep coming back, and Ignatia comes to a place when it will not
hold any longer."
"Sits and sobs."
"Great grief after losing persons or objects very near."
"Thinks that she has neglected some duty." *
Dwells upon that much.
"Melancholy after great grief."
* (In your case the duty would be to be a nice wife, instead of
troubling her husband and son with her grief)
Thus it should be Ignatia, maybe as Kent suggests Nat.Mur could be the
following remedy.
All the best
