  • *Excessive sensitiveness of all the nerves, with a morbid sensation of general weakness, 1 . [Compare this note to 1013. Here we see expressed the peculiar weakness which Cinchona causes in such an excessive degree and it is especially this kind that Cinchona can permanently remove, if the other morbid symptoms correspond to those caused by Cinchona.

  • Pain in the joints while sitting and lying; the limb cannot endure lying quietly in one place, as after an excessive fatigue from a long journey, or from great exhaustion consequent upon excessive bleeding or a profuse loss of semen; one is obliged to move the limbs hither and thither, at one time bend them up, at another stretch them out, 1 . [The weakness here noticed as if proceeding from great loss of the fluids is associated with 1, 987, 993, 995, 1014, together with the mental symptoms (11, 82, 40, 41, 47), also with the existence of disordered digestion, the disturbance after eating, the much too easy sweating, especially on the back, on motion and during sleep, and the confusion of the head, and is exactly that weakness for which Cinchona is the only fit remedy, and it, almost without exception, affects persons who have lost and essential portion of their strength by hæmorrhoids or frequent bloodletting, by constant loss of milk from the breast, by excessive nursing of children, by excessive coition, or onanism, or frequent involuntary emissions, by profuse sweating during disease, by too powerful sudorifics, by diarrhœas, or by frequently repeated cathartics. In the other forms of morbid exhaustion, when the disease itself does not find its remedy in this drug, Cinchona is always followed by the most pernicious results, frequently shortening the life of the patient; although, indeed, in these inappropriate cases an excitement of the vitality may be produced during the first few hours, but which is easily seen to be unnatural and forced, and which only tends to hasten death by the excessive excitement; and if in these cases its use be long continued, a cachexia difficult to cure may be brought about by the malpractice of the physician. -H.]*
