It has cured colic in the form of violent cramps coming every two weeks with perfectregularity. It has pain in the stomach, and a pain under the xiphoid appendix that seems as if it wouldtake his life. If it is not removed he will certainly die in a little while.Constriction across the chest, suffocation, cramps of the legs.Cuprum goes deep into the life, and it has many a time taken such a grand hold of an oldhysterical subject that it has completely eradicated in a short time the hysterical tendency to cramps. InCuprum particularly, early in the cramps the thumbs commence to draw down. It is with difficulty thatthey can be lifted up. They will draw back again, and then the fingers will clinch over them and drawso tightly that it is painful. In children with such convulsions, and in hysterics with such convulsions,Cuprum goes deep into the life and eradicates this tendency to convulsions and cramps. Uraemicconvulsions. Convulsions with suppressed or scanty urine. No urine in the bladder. In young girlsbeginning to menstruate, violent cramps in the limbs, cramps in the abdomen, diarrhea, cramps in theuterus. Epileptic spasms coming at every menstrual period. Before or during menses, or aftersuppression, violent, unbearable cramps in the abdomen. A case something like this is not so veryuncommon. Girls, at about the time of puberty, go in bathing, when their mothers have been a little tooprudish, a little too sensitive, and have not told their daughters what they might expect, and to look outfor bathing in cold water at certain times. The menstrual flow starts. From a cold bath she suppressesthat flow and on come convulsions. That is in keeping with Cuprum. Hysterical convulsions they maybe called. They will take the form, quite likely, of hysterical convulsions; they may take the form ofchorea. Instead of convulsions it may take the form of congestion of the brain with violent delirium.Again, the menses not appearing after suppression, after sweat, and convulsions come on; frequentspasms during menses, Cuprum is not generally known to be such a wonderful medicine where there isanemia; but it has chlorosis. It is a deep acting medicine. It affects with great power the wholevoluntary system, the desires and aversions. It is suitable in those girls who have always had their ownway, have never been crossed, and when they grow older, and reach puberty, and have got to submit tosome sort of discipline or never become women, they have mad fits, have cramps. Cuprum willsometimes make them sensible, so in that way it fits into the loves and hates. It belongs to the voluntarysystem most prominently.Spasmodic respiration; great dyspnoea, asthmatic breathing.Attacks of spasmodic asthma and most violent spasmodic coughs."Dry, hard, difficult cough, rattling in the chest, spasms.
