Thank’s Elaine for these wonderful morsels each month. These are not like the dry quizzes I had in college, but adorned with music, gustatory delights and humor. I’ll join this party every month!
Alan, what a nice thing to say! (I’m going to look up “gustatory” now.)
Lachesis has :
MIND – ANXIETY – health; about – own health; her/his
COUGH – FOREIGN body; sensation of a – Larynx, in
COUGH – MORNING – rising, after
COUGH – MUCUS – Larynx
EXPECTORATION – EASY
EXPECTORATION – TASTE – metallic
SLEEP – YAWNING – frequent
SKIN – SENSITIVENESS – touch; to
GENERALS – PAIN – sore, bruised
GENERALS – PAIN – sore, bruised – Internally
Thank you wafaa. There was no foreign body sensation in her throat. “coughing up pennies” only because of the metallic taste, nothing else. And, I don’t think there was any information about expectoration being “easy” or difficult.
Its Rhus Tox
Thanks for reading the quiz and voting, Prateek! The answer will be in the August issue.
Hepar-Sulph
arsenic alb
is it hepar-sulph?
Tune into August Ezine and find out!
Hello Dear Elaine and Shana,
My repertorization comes up with Lachesis as the top remedy, although there were a number of runner ups. I thought this was a bit of trick question as when you say, “coughing up pennies” my mind runs to “copper pennies” or Cuprum, which happens to be a good cough remedy.
However, based upon inputting a number of rubrics:
Taste metallic; throat taste metallic; Expectoration; metallic taste
Speech and voice: nasal
Cough: morning agg; waking on and after
Cough; intermittent
Cough; on waking
Skin; pain; sore, bruised
Skin, sensitiveness
Generalities; pain; agg; night
Generalities; yawning agg
Runner ups: alum, rhus-tox, hepar sulph, merc, nux-v, sulph
Wondering if a predominant theme or SRP should help make final decision?
Hi Debby, thanks for joining us! Be sure to check the August issue for the answer!
