Calcarea Sulph 187
Or
Calcarea Sulphate
(Sulphate of Lime - Plaster of Paris)
The element of Sulphur is a comm on factor of Calcarea Sulph and
Carbonium Sulph and so the symptoms of Sulphur are present in both.
But the presence of carbon in one and Calcarea in the other make
them distinct homoeopathic remedies of different constitutions.
A
special characteristic of Calcarea Sulph is the tendency to form deep
abscesses.
In this way, it resembles Sulphur as well as Calcarea Carb,
and to some extent Pyrogenium is of use when the
infection in the abscesses has already poisoned the blood (toxaemia).
Putrefaction is also found in the deep abscesses associated with
Silicea, but it usually does not affect the blood.
If it happens at all, it
is of very severe magnitude.
Th e widespread pyaemic abscesses in
the body resulting from toxaemia / septicaemia respond very well to
Calcarea Sulph in addition to Pyro genium.
Similarly, it is deeply
related to chronic sores that have the tendency to transform into
cancer, and also controls sores to some extent.
It is also useful in the
treatment of the ulcers and fistulae developing when the cancers
surface on the skin.
Calcarea Sulph is described as the best remedy for epilepsyNeurological disorder causing seizuresA neurological disorder marked by sudden recurrent episodes of sensory disturbance, loss of consciousness, or convulsions..
In recent
times, the incidence of epilepsy has significantly increased and there
are many reasons for this.
One reason is injury to the head of the baby
due to certain instruments used at the time of delivery, affecting the
brain of the child.
Epileps y can also be the result of the ill effects of
certain allopathic medicines.
In such children, in addition to the
standard prescriptions, one sh ould look for the appropriate
constitutional remedy in order to cu re the epilepsy.
Calcarea Sulph is
said to be the one that can comple tely cure epilepsy.
Dr.
Kent, who
was previously an eminent allopath ic physician as well as a surgeon
and understood the physiology of the human body, is of the opinion
that Calcarea Sulph can totally uproot the epilepsy.
Sometimes, the
epilepsy is due to a tumour in the brain or it can be due to the effect of
a physical injury to the brain.
Sometimes it is due to the abnormal
Calcarea Sulph 188
development of the skull, evident on observing the patient.
In such a
patient who has a permanent developm ental defect of the skull, the
cure for the epilepsy is apparently impossible.
The statement of Dr.
Kent does not hold well about the treat ment of this kind of epilepsy
with Calcarea Sulph.
However, we can definitely say that Calcarea
Sulph has significantly benefited many epileptic patients.
It is possible to treat the epilepsy which gas developed secondary to
some serious illnesses of infanc y, cholera and dysenteryIntestinal infection with severe bloody diarrheaInfection of the intestines resulting in severe diarrhea with the presence of blood and mucus in the feces. being the
most salient.
Whenever the diarrh oea due to gastro-enteritisInflammation of the small intestineInflammation of the small intestine, usually caused by eating or drinking substances contaminated with bacteria. or a
severe kind of dysentery is treated forcibly with some allopathic
medicine, there is always the dange r that the child may subsequently
develop epilepsy.
In
addition, I have also given them Artemisia in Mother TinctureConcentrated liquid raw extractA mother tincture prepared by soaking botanical, animal, or mineral raw materials in alcohol and water.form.
Both of these do temporarily benefit, but I have not observed complete
cure.
These remedies have to be administered on a permanent basis.
I
have tried them in very high pot ency and found that the intervals
between the epileptic fits prolong ed, but complete cure was not
obtained.
It means that we should try to find out other remedies for
the complete cure of epilepsy.
According to Dr.
Kent, Calcarea Sulph
has this capability.
I have observed complete cure of epilepsy only in the condition of
recurrence of that particular i llness, the suppression of which had
resulted in the development of epilep sy in the first place.
When that
particular illness relapses, it can be treated with other kinds of
complementaryAssisting or completing remedyA remedy that naturally follows and completes the action of another remedy, helping it work better. remedies, such as Arsenic for the treatment of fever,
and Mag Phos for the treatment of abdominal pain and colicSevere fluctuating pain in the abdomenSevere, often fluctuating pain in the abdomen caused by gas, spasm, or obstruction in the intestines, common in infants..
However, antibiotics and strong medi cations that suppress the illness
must be avoided.
Regarding the treatment of epilepsy, one should study the prodormal
signs (Aura), as already mentioned in reference to Calcarea Ars.
In
some of these patients, blood is noted to rush towards the head.
Generally it is considered to treat with Belladonna however, is not
proper.
Belladonna only helps partia lly, for a short time.
In some
other homoeopathic medicines als o, there is a tendency of blood
rushing towards the brain such as in Hydrocyanic Acid.
Hydrocyanic
Acid causes severe spasm of the ai r passages, resulting in a profound
congestion of the face.
In th e presence of these symptoms,
Hydrocyanic Acid may also be one of the important remedies for
Calcarea Sulph 189
epilepsy.
Hydrophobinum is also relate d to this kind of illness.
The
patient is scared of flashing objects.
If there is fear of developing
epilepsy on the sight of a flashing object , Hydrophobinum would be
found very useful.
This may be given in combination with
Hydrocyanic Acid.
These are compatible and in fact are supplemental
to each other for the treatment of this kind of epilepsy.
When an epileptic cannot be treated by homoeopathic remedies he
should definitely be transferred to the care of allopathic physicians.
A
number of strong allopathic medi cines have been discovered to
control epileptic fits.
They keep the patient drowsy to a great extent,
but relieve him of the pain of the epileptic fits.
In addition to
allopathy, the traditional Chinese sy stem of medicine may also be
tried.
Calcarea Sulph is very useful in the treatment of muscular pains and
strains.
Whenever someone carries a heavy load beyond his capacity
his back gets hurt.
Calcarea Sulph, besides other remedies, may prove
useful.
Its action is not limited to the muscles of the back, but extends
to the muscles of the entire body.
It is also very beneficial in the
treatment of severe muscular strains of the limbs due to excessive
heavy lifting.
If other symptoms of Ca lcarea Sulph are present, whenever there is
severe flushing of the face causing convulsion, not only on the face
but other parts of the body as well such as the chest, arms, legs or
head and there is a feeling of tight ness, Calcarea Sulph can prove very
effective.
Calcarea Sulph is al so useful for the treatment of bone
pains, inflammation of the glands and generalised muscle
fasciculation (twitching), especially the muscles of the face.
Calcarea
Sulph, Agaricus and Kali Phos a re useful in the treatment of
muscle twitching under stress in feeble-minded patients .
The
ailment of the patient aggravates on standing up, being more common
in the women who stand for extended periods of time while cooking.
The Calcarea Sulph patient feels comfort on starting to walk, but after
walking for some distance, as the circulation of the blood improves
and the legs feel warm, his symptoms become worse again.
Due to his constant state of appr ehension, the Calcarea Sulph patient
wakes up early in the morning.
This symptom along with other
Calcarea Sulph 190
symptoms of Calcarea Sulph makes th e diagnosis certain.

It is also useful in the elderly when they hear

In Calcarea Sulph, there is persiste nt nasal catarrhInflammation of mucous membranes with dischargeExcessive buildup of mucus in the nose or throat, associated with inflammation of the mucous membrane., which virtually
settles in permanently and then dest roys the inner lining of the nose.
This makes the life of these patien ts forever miserable.

when associated with the other symptoms of Calcarea Sulph.
Calcarea Sulph is also useful in the treatment of paralysisLoss of voluntary muscle functionThe loss of the ability to move (and sometimes to feel anything) in part or most of the body. of the
tongue where the muscles of the tongue be come rigid and tense.
Sudden muscular cramps of the tongue and the associated sensation of
suffocation is also present.
The feeling of tightness of the air passages (suffocation) and
nasal catarrh is followed by constant irritation in the throat due to
which even a small amount of air en tering the throat or just mere
speaking can precipitate a choking sensation.
The diagnosis being correct, Calcar ea Sulph is also useful in the
treatment of chronic inflammation of the kidneys .
In Calcarea

Even the warmth of bedding may be intolerable to him.

In this respect, it has been
learned that during the onset of fever, the chills start from the feet, but
this condition has also been described in reference to other
homoeopathic remedies.
Thus, th is particular symptom cannot be
diagnostic of Calcarea Sulph.
Another feature of Calcarea Sulph is the presence of thick, yellowish
secretions from the eyes .
The eyesight becomes foggy and most
