644.23.12 Linum catharticum, Case
Case by Ulrich Welte.
Woman, 45, carcinoid tumour of colon.
She has colitis, diagnosed by coloscopy as a polyp, biopsy showed a carcinoid timour, partially removed.
She was restless, could not stop doing useless business, walking, reading, going out. She was stopped by breaking her ankle.
Type: unnatural naturalness, trying to be natural, as if one does not know whom one is talking with. A concoction of book knowledge and theories, nothing genuine, very artificial, complicated, quarrelsome and oversensitive.
Diarrhoea, immediately after linseed.
Analysis
Theme: no grip, as if nothing goes under the skin, artificial.
Follow up
After Linum catharticum 200K she had a severe reaction, 2-3 days of weakness, fatigue, as if she was not really there. Then bowels became normal and she herself felt more natural, one could talk and feel a natural response.
After 4 weeks the remedy was repeated without immediate reaction but after 3 weeks she had soreness of the mouth, the whole cavity felt raw and it moved outwards to the lips. Only milk and yoghurt were possible. After this she was completely okay.
