Banerjee, Calcutta, India, in the Homoeopathic Recorder, July, 1891. \nDr. O. N. Banerjee wrote \u201cIn June, 1888, while visiting a patient in the country I saw in the garden a large tree \nof the variety known as Ficus Indica. As the tree is considered s acred I regarded it and its branches, which \nwere ladened with ripe, yellow fruit, with the greatest interest, and plucking one of the fruits, ate it upon an \nempty stomach. \n\u201cTo my great astonishment there occurred one hour thereafter an unusual frequent de sire to urinate, I did not \nrelish my breakfast, there was loss of appetite and sour belching; in the afternoon the urine became phosphatic \nand I suffered from headache ; in the evening I felt an itching of the thighs, heaviness of the head, dullness of \nthe mind, and a burning heat over the body; there was but a scanty discharge of urine during the day.  \n\u201cAfter gathering a large quantity of fruit I returned to Calcutta and made an alcoholic tincture thereof. This was \ndistributed among nine provers and two drops of the mother tincture were taken every morning before breakfast \nfor eight days. \n\u201cAs a remedy it has been used success fully in every case presenting the following conditions: Frequent, at \ntimes unsatisfactory discharge of amber-colored or phosphatic urine with discharge of seminal fluid. Headache, \nheaviness of the head. Itching of the limbs. Thirst. Dyspepsia. Ill humor. Irregular stool. Disturbed sleep.\u201d","modalities":"","symptoms_by_system":[],"schema_version":"1.0","api_provider":"Allahshafi"}
