Moschus - Any Experience
Hi,Does anyone have experience with Moschus? It was prescribed for my 4.5 year old son who is 'defiant, hyperactive, doesn't always understand social boundaries, hits others when things don't his away'.
I am unable to find much information about Moschus (specially if it is suited for the behavior problems I note above).
Thanks,

LEADING SYMPTOMS:
* 'Moschus cures many hysterical girls who have come to adult age without ever learning what obedience means. They are self-willed, obstinate and selfish. When they have been encouraged to resort to crafty cunning, to have every whim gratified from infancy to eighteen years of age, they become fit subjects for Mosch., Asaf., Ign. and Valer. They not only have volumes of real and imaginary symptoms, but they become adept at producing at will a kaleidoscopic complex of symptoms, increasing in quantity and intensity until all their own desires are attained, and the onlooker, be he or she nurse, physician or bewildered mother, is dismayed or in retreat. However much they pretend to be honest and trustful, their reported sensations are untrustworthy. They have traded upon their sensations and imagination so long that a direct effort to give a truthful statement is unsuccessful. The most erratic and unexpected neuropathic phenomena are always in appearance. The physician cannot measure these cases by his experience and say what is common and uncommon' [Kent].
* 'Suited to spoiled, sensitive natures' [Clarke].
Deep psychological states with FEIGNING SICKNESS or lying about so as to get what she wants. HYSTERIA [= conscious or unconscious need to dominate the surroundings]. Delusion OPPOSED BY EVERYONE [1/1]. Constantly make a scene. 'Imaginary sufferings' [Boger].
Spasmodic, nervous effects; laughter, crying, hiccough, twitchings, choking, FAINTING, etc.
Hurried, tremulous and AWKWARD.
Anger; talks EXCITEDLY or scolds until she faints or until blue in the face.
CHILLY; cold air = shivering. 'External chilliness with internal heat' [Guernsey].
Worse COLD in general. Worse Becoming cold [3]. Sensation of cold wind [2]; sensation of air, as if fanned [2].
Better during menses [2].
TWINGING pain [3].
Sleepy by day, sleepless at night; wakes every minute.
Debility, which is more felt during rest than during motion.
Tingling with heaviness in the limbs.
Sudden nervous suffocation or anxious palpitation; wants to take a DEEP BREATH; Better BELCHING.
Headache and coldness, faintness and polyuria.
One cheek red but COLD, other cheek pale and HOT.
Vomiting worse vomiting; 'vomiting of the food, then subsequent vomiting and more vomiting' [Guernsey].
There is a quite extensive amount of literature on this remedy, and no way to reprint it all.
