Vertigo with transient vanishing of sight. \nCOMMENTS - Complete aphasia in a patient who took 1 1\/2 oz. of worm-seed oil and 30 drops of turpentine. \nFive days from taking the dose he died in profound coma with high temperature.  \n\u201cWhatever he did he would keep repeating. When the doctor entered he arose and shook him heartily by the \nhand, and then sat down. In about a minute he arose, solemnly ca me forward and again shook hands. This \nhe repeated twenty times in as many minutes. He then went through the performance of  \nwashing his hands in an empty basin and repeated this many times.\u201d \nIn poisoning cases, there was hemiplegia with contractions of limbs and certain epileptic seizures. When given \nas a vermifuge it frequently produces progressive and long- lasting deafness. \nThe peculiar deafness corresponds nearly to the \u201ccerebral deafness\u201d described by Cooper in which the watch-\nhearing is good while the voice-hearing is bad or absent. \nLinnell cured with it two cases in which there was deafness to voice-hearing but sensitiveness to other sounds. \nIn one case there was implication of left labyrinth with slight chronic otitis media of both ears, deafness in  the \nleft ear several years, no tinnitus, consciousness of the ear, sensitive to musical sounds, deaf for watch and \n \n \nvoice, hearing diminished. \nLinnell also cured a roaring tinnitus synchronous with heart. Sensitiveness to cold. Hearing better for high -\npitched than low-pitched sounds. \nAllen reported three cases of poisoning in which there was insensibility, convulsions, and foaming at the mouth. \nAll remembrance of taking the poison was lost upon recovery. \nDeep, heavy, stertorous breathing ac companied by a very peculiar rattle, as if there were a ball rolling loose \nin the trachea. Any attempt to swallow threatened instant suffocation. Pulse small, weak, frequent and feeble. \nEyes insensible to light or external objects. Convulsive movements of right half of bo dy. Limbs cold. \nIn one case, a patient took 1.5 oz. of worm -seed oil and 30 drops of turpentine. It produced disagreeable \nbelchings and nausea. Staggering like a drunken man. Deafness to the sound of the voice, but exquisite sensi-\ntiveness to the sound of passing vehicles, they sounded like cannons in his ears, also annoying buzzing.  \nIn smoking, he would scarcely light his cigar before he would lay it down again and take a fresh one, arguing \nperversion of taste. By afternoon the mantelpiece was strewn with cigars only partly used. \nNo disposition to engage in conversation. Aphasia, he clearly wanted his attendant to get or do something but \ncould not make him understand. The attendant wrote, \u201cDon\u2019t understand,\u201d showed it to him and gave him, \npaper and pencil. After great efforts he wrote distinctly words with no meaning. \nThe voice and hearing became progres sively worse but he heard the tea -bell three stories below, promptly \nand to the astonishment of the family, got up and walked deliberately into the dining-room. He did not seem to \nknow his accustomed seat and sat in the wrong place. \nDuring the afternoon became completely aphasic. Finding himself unable to express his ideas, this seemed to \namuse him much and he laughed heartily. Whatever he did he would keep repeating. \nWhen the doctor entered he arose and shook him heartily by the hand and then sat down. In about a minute \nhe arose, solemnly came forward and again shook hands. This he repeated twenty times in as many minutes. \nHe then went through the performance of washing his hands in an empty basin and repeated this many times. \nSitting at tea, he ate with apparent relish, taking singly tea and bread. While grasping a piece of bread, there \nwas a distinct spasm of right forearm and hand, fingers firmly clenched, hand forcibly flexed on forearm. \nAssisted to his room, his walk was entirely natural, when put to bed showed some re sistance, striking at the \ndoctor. He at once commenced to groan, tossed from side to side of the bed, suggesting abdominal dis tress. \nSoon became unconscious, right arm paralyzed, dragging helplessly. \nThe next day, continued impairment of motion and sensation right side, right eyeball insensitive to touch. \nDuring the third day, there was frequent twitching and stiffness of the righ t limbs, culminating in a one -side \nconvulsion during the early morning of the fourth day. At noon on the third day, copious involuntary urination \nin bed. \nThis continued to the end, except when drawn off. In the afternoon, heavy breath ing and the flapping cheeks \nof a stroke \nappeared. Constant regurgitation of yellow frothy material from mouth, smelling of worm-seed, as also did the \nperspiration. This material was at times so profuse as to embarrass respiration.  \nDuring one of the attacks of dyspnea and while in drenching sweat, which suggested dissolution, he was gently \nturned in bed, immediately a general convulsion set in, markedly opisthotonic, lasting ten minutes, despite the \nuse of chloroform. By this time jaundice appeared, having been only noticed the day before.","Head":"Pain in whole right side of head, with roaring in ears, dim sight or complete loss of vision.
