COMMENTS - The first Vib.
provings were by H.
C.
Allen, assisted by eleven provers, male and female with
the tincture and first and 30c dilutions.
Dr.
Susan Fenton of Oakland, proved Vib.
on six provers.
One of the six took the tincture up to drachm doses without obtaining a single symptom.
One pro ver was cured
of a number of symptoms, but developed no new ones.
All took potencies at first witfiout eliciting any
symptoms.
Taking the tincture all had these symptoms with variations: severe backache going
through to the front or around the abdomen to uterus.
Cramping pelvic pain.
Temporal headache.
Three had
nausea with pains.
All had “sick feeling all over.” One had omission of a period, two had menses early.
One case was cured; Miss F., 25, a housekeeper, medium height, rather slender, blonde, sanguine, was strong
until she had severe pelvic congestion and was fifteen months under treatment and most of the time in bed.
In June, 1892, a double oophorectomy was performed with great relief, but attacks of pelvic congestion with
severe pain still persisted, at first every two to four weeks, later less frequently, causing impairment of general
health and strength.
Symptoms included excruciating pains through lower abdomen with bearing -down sensation and a feeling as
if the body from the waist to lower part of pelvis would collapse, an indescribable sick feeling all over with
severe aching in rectum, great depression of spirits, symptoms better when lying down.
Vib.
tincture was taken in three-drop doses thrice daily.
After taking it for three days she lost all her symptoms
and felt “perfectly well for the first time in over four years.” It is evident that “sick feeling all over” in connection
with pelvic complaints and “worse from movement, better by rest” are keynotes of Vib
