Agnes Sead. at 18 has generally five or six loose stools every day, attended with severe gripes & some tenesmus

She has also some pain in the lower part of her abdomen, which often extends from thence to her loins. She likewise complains of much ardor urinae but voids it in as great quantity as natural. She is affected also with pain in the breast accompanied with much cough & difficulty of breathing. She has likewise much wind at her stomach which is always aggravated after meals.

Pulse about 100 low & weak intense thirst, appetite much impaired, sleeps ill. She says that the Catamenia have not appeared for these twelve months & that they never were seen above six times.

The cough attacked her about nine months ago, which she attributes to much exposure to cold. The looseness supervened about four months since, without any obvious cause. She has used no medicines.
