After considering further on Mrs Wilkies Complaints
I do not find Room for proposing any other measures than those I spoke
of to you at Berwick. –– Let her continue her asses milk every
morning and let her take some new drawn Cow milk whey with a bit of
toasted Bread for Supper every night ––– At dinner she may
take a bit of to any plain meat but should prefer the lighter kinds
and shoud never make a full meal of any kind. She should not take
Fish of any Sort. All kinds of Pudding are very proper, but Fruits
& or Greens she must take very cautiously and only a little of the
tenderest kinds along with her meat ––– For Drinks at Din¬
ner she may take a little small Beer as she has been in the Habit
of it, but should take care that it is always clear & sound tho even
then I would prefer white Wine and water. All other kind of Malt
Liquors is bad for her, but every Day at Dinner she may take a Glass
or two of Sherry or other sound bodied white wine –– She woud
be the better of taking some Exercise on Horseback or in a Carriage,
but she must take great Care to avoid all bodily fatigue, and particu¬
larly standing long ––– Every Night at bed time let her take
[t]wo table spoonfulls of the Diaphoretic Mixture, washing it down
with a small Draught of the Apoyem but besides this she should
take some draughts of ye apoyem several times a day so as to
take a pint of it every 24 hours. ––– If the mixture does
not disturb the Dose may be encreased by Degrees to 3 or 4 spoonfulls
I expect that the mixture will keep her belly regular but if does
not she must take so much of ye Pil. Aromat. ph.Lond Lond as
may be necessary to prevent Costiveness.
