Clethra alnifolia A 59-year-old woman, she is small in stature, and has a youthful build and appearance. She exudes optimism and always has an interested look. She is independent, someone who takes matters into her own hands, and who observes with a somewhat expectant attitude. She owns her own plant business. In the past, she was treated for chronic fatigue, but she recovered well after Oxytropis campestris. In the past six months, she had several tick bites, and she developed a red, painful spot on her chest near ribs 2-3. Distinctive features were swollen veins and tenderness in a horizontal band across the chest, radiating to the arm. For a while, she felt very tired, unwell, and had flu-like symptoms. Then she developed kidney problems, with a burning pain radiating to her thigh. She was unable to do anything and was bedridden for days; the pain subsided after urinating. This was followed by a persistent, nagging pain throughout her lower abdomen, radiating to her legs with muscle pain, medially in the thigh. She has lateral pains; she couldn't lie on her side, and her calf hurt like a torn muscle. After three months, she still wakes up with muscle pain. Her legs are tired. Her hair is worn out, the curls are gone. She wakes up every night for three hours with a strong urge to urinate. She speaks descriptively, describing the areas technically, sometimes blushing slightly when it involves her lower abdomen. She wants to resolve it with natural remedies, not conventional medication. She has a painful right thumb joint, and lifting her right upper arm hurts, with little strength.
Analysis 3-660.00.00, Asteranae, Lanthanides: own business, own policy, and infection, pain, flu-like symptoms (extrapolating from the Asterales to the Campanulidae and, thematically, to the Asteranae).
3-664.00.00, Ericidae, Iron series,: her complaint is often muscular, with fatigue (fatigue as a primary complaint is known in the Fabales; we can also extrapolate this to the Fabidae, Series 4), and practicality in narration (which also includes some distance and perspective, as we know from the Lanthanides).
It is helpful using the interpretation of the theme of Series, to extrapolate to an order, as in this analysis. Asterales theme is an indication for or a leading possibility to Asteranae 3-660, and Fabaceae aspects can be extrapolated tot Fabales, Fabidae and finally to the Fabanae 3-640, the combination leading to 3-664, the Ericidae.
3-664.60.00, Ericales, Phase 6: is known for Lime-related complaints. Fatigue. Lets work.
3-664.61.00, Clethraceae, Phase 1: the complaints are severe, exhaustion (as we know from Stage 1, so a theme of Phase 1 too).
Clethra alnifolia is known for bladder complaints. Stage 10 fits her belief that she will overcome it all.
Prescription: Clethra alnifolia C200.
Follow-upAfter two days, the pain in her thighs was gone, as was the thumb joint and arm pain. Her strength will return in the coming weeks. After a few days, she felt very unwell for a day, her lower back aching, resembling the pain of renal colic. Afterward, the pressure on her bladder disappeared, and she felt fine again. For the first month, she still occasionally felt sleepy and experienced some muscle pain, which subsided quickly. The two years before that were very busy with a move, care giving, and running her own business. Her energy levels improved. Things continued to improve in the following months.
