BELLADONNA



General

      Convulsions begin in arm; external pulsations, a.m., on waking. Aggravation 3 p.m.; amelioration lying on abdomen; gnawing pain in bones; tension in bones (in glands: Phosphorus); aggravation wetting head. The pains run down away from the head, while those of Gelsemium and Silicea run up the back toward the head. Belladonna is intensely poisonous to man, but not to herbivorous animals. Vinegar retards the action of Belladonna, lemonade aids it. Inert to goats and rabbits. Mentally active children who come down suddenly and violently, whose diseases may stay any length of time and just as suddenly get will. Women and children who are sensitive, they get no sympathy, and are not able to control themselves perfectly. Nervous sensitive women of nervous irritable fiber.
