The patient reported continued improvement at her several visits up to June 14th, when she said that she had no complaints to make except that in spite of having lost two pounds in five months,she still thought that she was too heavy! One could scarcely blame her !.
The question now is, what to do about it ? As soon as she was taken off the thyroid,she began to put on weight; Pituitrin, either anterior or posterior, brought her to a point where Calcarea carb, was plainly indicated.Both preparations of Pituitrin undoubtedly worked curatively, as the record shows. But even the Calcarea failed to reduce her weight to any appreciable degree. She will return for observation, in a month or so, when some solution to the problem may present itself.
