Can anyone share cases where they have used syphilinum with good result?
Thankyou!
Shannon

one very successful case was a woman...alcholic, drug user.....very low self esteem........everything was always worse at night....this case was a few years ago, but that is what remains in my mind and has become a keynote for me for syphillinum, the <<<< at night.

there were, of course, other symptoms that led me to syph..., as well.

best,

Go along with Broten on the worse at night . But also there is the fact that people who work at night - like taxi drivers and others who only need a few hours sleep - come into that class.
There is also the rapid tissue turnover which mean that they eat like horses and never put on weight. Junk food was designed for these people.
Suicide without any warning signs are typical. As is compulsive hand washing.
Clarkes book on Constitutional Medicine points to the fact that Syphilinum types are better when there is an electrical equilibrium , and they are better away from cold , sea air and low altitudes.
A fair picture can be gained by studying Kent on Aurum Metallicum , it is also interesting that the vey old Arab physicians treated syphilis by rubbing gold leaf into the gums.
