A Lady of a thin, lax habit of Body, aged 25, about 5 years
ago was afflicted with a Head-ach and pain in the Stomach, during
Menstruation, for which she took a Vomit. A Fluor Albus was
the immediate consequence. This Disorder continued nine
Months, and then disappeared. She remained free of it, till
about 16 Months ago, when she was was seized with a violent
Head-ach, supposed to be the symptom of a Fever, for which
another Vomit was prescribed. The consequence of this Emetic
also was a Fluor albus. This Disease was not, at the begin¬
ning, attended with any complaints in the Primæ Viæ. Nine
months, however, after its first attack, a fixed pain, resembling
a Stitch, arose in the left side immediately below the false ribs
which was encreased by motion, or stooping. The pain remained
fixed during 4 months, and then extended to the Stomach and
OEsophagues. Her Menses have been mostly regular: But
the Fluor Albus continued in the intervals. The discharge
was white, pritty thick, and not at all acrimonious, tho' some¬
times in larger quantity. About a Month ago it stoped, &
continued so for three or four Weeks, during which she was worse
of her Stomachic and intestine Complaints, which she observed
to be generally the Case. About seven days ago she was seized
with a violent Head-ach, tenasmus and spasms on her Bowels,
for which she was Blooded, without any advantage; but was
relieved by the coming down of the Menses.

At present the pain in her side is more extensive, &

The Bark, Compound Lime Water, Steele, Opium,
Deobstruent Gums, Bitters, spiritous purges to open the
Belly, the Cold Bath, and riding on Horse back, have been
used. The riding encreased the pain in her side so much that
she could not bear it. One small pill of the deobstruent
Gums purged her so much that they were of necessity laid
aside. Neither Injections, nor Fumigations were applied.
An antihysteric Plaister was laid to the side, with very little
advantage. She has avoided all smoaked, salt, and dried
Flesh or Fish, Hogs flesh, Cheese, and Eggs. Her diet con¬
sisted chiefly of fresh Meats, Milk, Chocolate, a little Tea,
Bread, and such like. Milk agrees very well with her.
Wine she dislikes; and it heats her too much. Her appetite
is very Bad.

At present the pain in her side is more extensive, and
uneasy to the (↑any↑) pressure. She cannot stretch herself, nor lie on the
side affected. The Menses are on, and in Moderation. She has an uneasy
sensation of heaviness in her Head; is considerably debilitated,
Complains of thirst; and was this day seized with a fluttering,
as if frightened, which however did not continue long. Her
Countenance is pale; but her Eyes not sunk. Her pulse small
and feeble, herExtremities mostly cold, and she has a
Blotch like a ring-worm at the root of her Thumb, which
moves from one hand to the other, but affects no other part.
