physical disability from chronic malaria; had taken quinine in twenty grain
doses for years to keep down recurrent malaria; he seldom went longer than
six weeks before his chills would return; he suffered severely, but with a
confused general condition. He had never permitted his case to develop
into well-defined symptoms but he was pale and ached all over; full of
chilliness in the afternoon and evening and heat all night.

Chronic indigestion; can eat but few simple foods. Malaria contracted in
Delaware over twelve years ago; has suffered ever since. Distended with
much gas stomach and bowels. Burning pain. Restless during fever and
must move constantly.
Aching in limbs with fever. More sensitive to cold than to heat; likes to be
warm. Cannot concentrate mind. Thirst only moderate. Wants everything
very salty.
Stool: urging drives him out of bed every morning. Feet are so warm that
he sleeps with them out of bed often in cold weather.
Sulph. 10m relieved all his symptoms and he felt well for six weeks, then
his symptoms began to return; he had been thinking he was well.
Sulph. 10m was repeated and he did not return for 40 days because he
thought he could do without me, he felt so well.
70
His symptoms began to return; Sulph. 50m. Has remained in perfect health.
He is an engineer and much exposed, but his endurance is better that it ever
was and he has added flesh and color.
