CLARKE (Dictionary) explains that he original name of Platinum was Platina, from the Spanish meaning “like silver”, Hahnemann was the first to think of it as a medicine, and his proving (Chronic Diseases) is the basis of our knowledge of its action. One characteristic symptom, found alone r associated with other conditions, has led to many cures with Platina–lost sense of proportion in both ocular and mental vision. Objects look small, and the patient thinks them small: this becomes pride and hauteur in the mental sphere, the patient (generally a woman), looks down on everything and everybody. Another keynote is the occurrence of cramping pains and spasms, developing into convulsions. Another is the alternation of mental and physical symptoms. He says Nash cured an old case of insanity, where the mental symptoms alternated with pain the whole length of spine. He says, Jahr cured with Platina a woman who had an inspiration to kill her child: and Jules Gaudy, a woman who was tormented with an almost irresistible impulse to kill her husband, whom she loved passionately, and with whom she was perfectly happy.
