and finally, but only now and then, some itching and a slight smarting at the orifice of the urethra, as if from constant urging to urinate, which, however, was not felt (after six hours),.
Heaviness in the head, extending to the right side of the head, whence a rheumatic drawing extends into the right side of the neck, then through the arm into the wrist, affecting both of the injured fingers.
this rheumatic drawing also affects the whole right side of the chest but does not involve the lung, but seems to be seated in the flesh.
is not aggravated by breathing,.
About midday, a red spot, as of herpes, on the sternal region, where the day before there was only a burning pain, which now becomes more intense, without altering its character.
a little later the same kind of feeling, but still without redness, is experienced in various very circumscribed portions of the shoulders, trunk, and arms (these annoying symptoms last all through the proving), (third day),.
Severe compressing pain deep in the chest, noticed on stooping low down.
this pain seems rather in the region of the bodies of the vertebrae.
it does not affect respiration, but is so violent that stooping cannot be endured.

not affecting respiration (second and third days after 100 drops),.
Sticking-jerking pains somewhat to the right of the lower portion of the sternum, extending straight through to the back, aggravated by motion and inspiration.
the pains in the chest are aggravated by bending the body forward.

About 1.30 P.M., a dull deepseated pain in the whole right side of the chest, and in the corresponding shoulder, without cough, but with difficult respiration this pain, which is accompanied at times by dull throbbing in the chest, does not allow of deep breathing.
it is not much increased by moving the arms.
is chiefly felt at the axilla and beneath the scapula (fourth day),.
Much cough, especially in morning.
cough racking, as in consumption, with much expectoration coming from deep in lungs.
the cough could not be prevented by changing the position after waking, since the rattling in the chest increased.
expectoration in large quantities, difficult to loosen.
during the first days the paroxysms of cough, with pain behind sternum, occurred especially at night,.
Great sensitiveness to smoking, to which I had been accustomed.

this lasted two weeks,.
Urine deposits a slightly grayish-yellow flocculent sediment.
the vessel is covered with reddish-yellow crystals of uric acid (from the urine of yesterday standing over night), the urine passed this morning is turbid like that of yesterday.

the urine passed shortly before dinner is less turbid.
that passed in the afternoon is clear (ninth day),.
Violent pains in the right shoulder-joint.
whence they have extended from the scapula.
if she attempts to move the arm she finds that she is unable to do it, because it gives rise to a sensation as if the arm were broken.

the pains extend from the shoulder to the wrist.
they gradually disappear during the forenoon (seventh day),.
Constant restlessness in all the limbs, which compelled her to move.
she endeavored to stand still, but she was obliged to keep stepping and moving the arms.
the sensation that impels her to this is indescribable.
she is obliged to walk back and forth for several minutes, after which she could again stand quietly.
she had a similar attack five days before (after taking the tincture) while sewing, which she had been unable to describe clearly.
she was obliged to rise constantly and walk about, after which the uneasiness in the limbs soon disappeared,.
In the evening while sitting upon the sofa, although she had pains in the head and chest, she was constantly obliged to rise and walk about.
she could not for the world remain sitting.
she grasped the forearm with the hand, and clasped her hands together.
during this attack she could not think or speak of her condition.
after a few minutes, during which she walked about the room, she was obliged to sit down again.
during this muscular restlessness she felt no pains in the chest or head.
afterwards the pains returned.
at first she attempted to remain sitting, but was obliged to rise to her feet (fifth day),.
