Clethra alnifoliusRemedy code: 3- 664.61.10.
A woman of 70, she is vital and brisk, she still looks young, bright, and keen-eyed, she sits slightly back as if at ease but critically following the conversation. She speaks loudly and clearly articulating, as if her words are well considered, but with an airy nonchalance. She has joint problems, and recently bladder problems. For the joints, she has been taking vitamin C for years, and the pain has improved miraculously. Six months ago she developed bladder problems, and since then the joints hurt more. The fingers, the knees, on the right more than on the left, the pain is stabbing, with movement and with bumping worse, the knees feel as if you are slamming through them, she has also trouble with driving. On the left hand, fingers three and four can stay in a cramp, like a claw. Six months ago she developed a fever, with weird muscle twitching, she felt nothing but it turned out to be a severe bladder infection. Since then the bladder has remained sensitive, with a lot of urge, little pee, and regular urine loss. For years she has been suffering from prolapse, surgery is not an option. Otherwise, everything is going well, occasionally she feels tense, for no reason. In sleep, she grinds. She still does a lot, her hobbies are sculpting and theater. Soon they will travel, and would prefer to be without symptoms then.
AnalysisGold series: joints, inflammation, osteoarthritis, fitting with
Series 6 and
Lanthanides. Bladder with fever.
Iron series: connective tissue, the prolapse, she is practical, and likes to tackle concrete things. The
Ericales come into the picture: healthy, tackling, not whining. The age phase may also indicate
Phase 6, in the past, she responded well to Asparagus, also a
Phase 6 drug. Also notable are the remarkably good response to vitamin C, ascorbic acid, and her direct mannerisms, matching the “acidums,” which overlaps with
Phase 1. This brings us to the
Clethraceae.
Within this family search, we recognize
Stage 10, rigid, fixation both in the muscles and her mannerisms, keywords of other
Stage 10 minerals are recognizable in her demeanor.
Prescription:
Clethra alnifolia C30.
Follow upThe first few days she felt down, just as she had felt in the past. It didn't bother her, it felt “heavy-handed,” it was more of an observation. She has been on antidepressants for years. The fingers are doing better, in the knee is no longer stitches, occasionally she can still 'sag' through them. The neck is much less painful. Feeling tension is still the same, her mother and grandmother had the same. Bladder no longer bothers her. In good spirits, she can travel. The following year everything continued to go well.
