disturbed by heat, is worse in a warm room or from too much clothing. Wants the windows open and tobe in the open air .1 This turmoil in the circulatory system is such as might be expected in ahaemorrhagic remedy. Tendency to bleed from all the mucous membranes, especially of the kidney,bladder and uterus. It has a decided effect in diminishing knots, enlargements, or varices in veins. Theprincipal action is on the lower bowel, about the anus. Haemorrhoidal tumors which bleed copiously.Constipation with bleeding haemorrhoids. A sense of fullness in these parts. A sense of fullness in allthe veins of the body, a sense of distension, fulness, puffiness, bloating, with pulsations all over,associated with repeated haemorrhages from the mucous membranes. Great burning and throbbing inthe region of the kidneys. Severe suffering, attended with inflammatory symptoms; bloody urine;inflammation of the bladder with continuous urging to urinate, with the general aggravation from heatand the throbbing all over.Inflammation of the urethra, with a gonorrheal discharge, or a catarrhal discharge in the male.The most important sphere is menstrual symptoms, and its relation to uterine hemorrhage. In themenstrual symptoms the woman suffers from bearing down, labor-like pains. Most distressing indysmenorrhoea. The menses last too long and are too copious, and at times in some subjects the flowdoes not stop before the next period begins. Too frequent and prolonged copious menses. A strikingfeature in this drug, as in a few other remedies, is that the flow is liquid, bright red, intermingled withclots. It suits many cases in which the flow slackens up and remains away for a while and then laborpainscome on, and an enormous, partially decomposed clot is passed and this is followed by a brightred flow. This occurs over and over again. Such a state comes on after abortion, after labor and indysmenorrhoea. Accompanying the labor-like pains is a violent pain in the sacrum which shootsthrough to the front; pains extending from the sacrum to the uterus of pubes. Another striking feature isitching, shooting, knife-like pains, causing the patient to scream out, the vagina to theuterus, or up as far as the umbilicus. These two features, shooting pains from the back to the front andfrom below upwards, with hemorrhages, are striking corroborations. and Sabina are the two most important remedies in abortion at three months. has the same bearing down pains; which expel a clot followed by a copious, bright red flow.But the state is not like that of Sabina. In it is a hyperaesthesia,oversensitiveness to touch and jar; the patient will not allow the nurse to jar the bed, and the bright redflow is hot, so much so that it is noticeable; in parts over which the flow passes are so sensitive that theblood feels intensely hot to her. This is in keeping with the oversensitiveness of , to touch, light,motion, jar. If the physician jars the bed a scowl will immediately come over the patient's face. Bell.has many pains, not only shooting up but in every direction. irregular pains and bearing down pains.They come and go like lightning. appear suddenly and disappear suddenly, shooting in every direction.If these symptoms are present you will never need for its physiological effects. It has oftenbeen argued that in these cases of haemorrhage you "won't have time to get the symptoms". The expertphysician will often see all these symptoms in the twinkling of an eye. The actions of the patient, aword dropped by the nurse, and what he has observed himself, will have shown him the remedy.As a medicine to prevent abortion it is one of the first to consider. because the symptoms weknow are such as come during abortion, and it is most useful after the membranes have ruptured, or theovum passed. or when the placenta is about to be expelled. It establishes the normal activities of theuterus so that it will expel whatever is left behind of these membranes.The curetting is never necessary with the homoeopathic remedy. It suggests that there issomething defective about the woman's organs."Inflammation of the ovaries or uterus after abortion or premature labor". Violent pains throughovaries and uterus.Aching in the sacrum as if broken, as if the bones would separate. Most violent tearing. rending,burning pains, with throbbing in the sacrum, with burning and throbbing all over the body, especiallythrobbing in parts, whether it be the uterus or bladder. "Copious haemorrhages accompanied by uterinecolic".Contractive labor-like pains extending from back to pubes and great urging to urinate. Theuterine colic described is a labor- like, drawing up like colic, but also bearing down as if to expel theclot. Metrorrhagia, resulting from false plethora; clotted and fluid blood; pain extending from sacrumor lumbar region to pubes, with severe bearing down, extending from lower part of back aroundabdomen and down thighs; blood bright red. thin, liquid; labor-like pains in lumbar and uterine region,discharge of large clots of blood, bright red, coming in gushes, particularly profuse on motion, etc. Thisdescribes the symptoms from abortion or menstruation. "Menses too profuse, too early, last too long,partly fluid, partly clotted and offensive; flow in paroxysms; with colic and labor-like pains; pains fromsacrum to pubes".
