“Dr. Gregg reported a case of angina pectoris which resisted four doses of one-fourth grain of Morphine, given by an allopath, and was cured by a single dose of Belladonna 2M in a very short time.......Chief indication for the remedy was a globular pulse, which Dr. Gregg considers as one of the keynotes of Belladonna. He mentions also a case of scarlatina which had been given up to die, saved by a signal dose of Belladonna 2M, also given in the account of the globular pulse being present. He describes it as if a shot were passing under the finger.”
Homeopathic Physician, Vol.5, 1885, p. 167
“Dr. Young recited his own case. He was kicked by a horse when seven years old. Since that time he suffered from a pain in the chest; worse from any exertion, becoming at times almost unbearable. When a medical student, Prof. Smith, of Chicago, cured him by one dose of Arnica (high). This was in 1872, and he had suffered since 1849!”
