This is so strikingthat it may be said that some deep-seated constitutional state must be present. There is a history ofincreasing weakness, cachexia, catarrhal conditions, and neuralgia dating back over years. There issensitiveness to pain and an increasing aversion to doing anything, aversion to business in a man, andin a woman, to going about her house work; always tired, all work becomes irksome.The countenance becomes increasingly sallow, even to a waxy, cachectic aspect. One who hasbeen growing weaker and develops neuralgia of the face, eyes, stomach, and intestines; not theshooting, tearing pains often described, but a pain beginning gradually, increasing steadily and thendiminishing gradually.The pain sometimes begins with sunrise, increases until noon and gradually diminishes, andceases with sunset. On the other hand, it may begin at any time, as often at 10 A.M. and increasing forten or twenty minutes, then gradually decrease until gone. A few other remedies have these sunheadaches. has a similar headache, not so regularly increasing and diminishing, butespecially worse at noon. has a sun headache. has never been known tocause it, but has cured it, especially when beginning at 10 A.M. and worse from 2 to 3. has headache coming and going with the sun.The phthisical tendency of Stannum is closely allied to the neuralgias If these patients settledown into a neuralgic constitution, the deposit of tubercles is postponed, but most of them then seekpalliation with the inevitable result of hastening the end. If the Stannum neuralgia is suppressed, wewill see phthisis making its appearance, particularly phthisis pituitosa.Nature seems to be able to throw off effects through mucous discharges. If the neuralgia is notpermitted to have sway the patient becomes oversensitive to cold, takes cold easily. When let aloneevery cold settled in the nerves and every draft caused neuralgias about the eyes, sensitive to everychange in the weather, the hydrogenoid constitution of Grauvogl. But when palliated in any way by and inappropriate homeopathic remedies that have the tendency to catch cold in the chestlike , he after a while does not get over his cold, but there is a continuous catarrh of the chest,and later he will die of miliary tuberculosis. Stannum is useful in warding off phthisis, and is awonderful palliative in that disease.The pain has been likened to the pulling of a string, gradually increasing and gradually lettingup.The pain is somewhat similar in its first half; it gradually becomes intense, but suddenlylets up with a snap; comes gradually and stops suddenly.Remember what is said about the pain. It comes suddenly and reaches its intensity atonce, where it may remain for hours, but ceases suddenly.The Stannum pain is at times so severe that there is a throbbing pulsating intermingled with it,and the mind seems stunned."Headache every morning, over one or the other eye, mostly the left, gradually extending overthe whole forehead and increasing and decreasing gradually, often with vomiting". "Violent, glowing,beating pain". It is sometimes attended with burning.
