Epiphegus 80. HEADACHE. Nearly eight years ago, I was called to a young lady who was suffering from a headache that was located in the occipital region. The pain extended from there over the top of the head towards the frontal area, the severest pain existing in the occipital region. These headaches would always come on after the excitement of shopping all day or after going to the evening company. She would be compelled to go to bed; it made her very nervous. As a result, she only slept part of the night and was restless. Had minimal appetite, and was accompanied by great nervous prostration. After administering the above remedy, the headache improved after a few doses. The headache disappeared entirely in a few days. The prostration remaining was entirely relieved by China m. It was a complete cure, for she never suffered the same way. The second case was a young school teacher. For several months, she would have a frontal headache, pains extending into the eyes; this was during the school session. After school, the headache would gradually pass away. This would occur every school day. Gave her Epiphegus 80, four times daily for a week. She has had no more headaches, and it has been over two months. The keynote of this remedy is this: headache brought on by a mental strain, whether shopping, visiting or any other mental exertion, as teaching.
