N^o19. July 3^d 1784

Ann Brown at 19 complains of great sickness at stomach, attended with an inclination to vomit every thing that is taken. She finds herself much weakened & is troubled at times, with heaviness & stupidity. Pulse 76. menses rather scanty. Belly somewhat bound. Appetite very good but she can never digest the food taken as it is in a short time after always thrown up again.

This affection attacked her about a week ago, there were no previous symptoms, but she was seized unexpectedly upon taking a meal with nausea & inclination to vomit which now always returns when she takes any food.

No cause is assigned for her complaints & she has taken no medicines.
