General

Calcium Fluoride. Fluor spar. Ca F 2 . Trituration.

Clinical

Adenoids. Aneurism. Bone affections. Breast, indurations of. Cataract. Catarrh. Cold sores. Corneal opacities. Cough. Exostosis . Flatulence. Glands, indurated. Hæmoptysis. Herpes. Hodgkin's disease . Joints, cracking of. Liver, affections of. Lumbago . Nodes. Ozæna. Parturition. Postnasal catarrh. Spavin (horses). Strains. Syphilis.

Characteristics

Calc. fluor . is Schüssler's "bone salt." It is found in the surface of bones, the enamel of teeth, in elastic fibres and in the cells of the epidermis. It has been principally used for dispersing bony growths; ulcerations of bone; and for fistula. A giant-celled sarcoma of upper maxilla causing the deformity known as "frog-face" was very greatly relieved by Calc. fluor . in a short space of time, after Silica had failed to make much impression. W. P. Wesselhœft cured two cases of syphilitic periosteal swelling, one on right radius, one on left ulna, one sensitive, one not, one patient male dark, the other blonde female. Each case received a dose of Calc. fl . c.m. G. P. Hale, with the 3x, has removed induration after typhlitis, also encysted tumour of eyelids. He regards induration threatening suppuration as a marked indication. Induration in epigastric region after a kick from a horse was cured. Also indurated glands (of neck; of breast, &c.) of stony hardness. The mental condition is one of depression; anxiety; indecision. Cephalhæmatoma. Spots on cornea. Senile cataract has been cured by it. Ozæna. Herpes (hard, small) on lips. Deficient enamel of teeth. Prickly, burning, suffocating sensation in throat. Bleeding piles. One prover, Dr. Sarah N. Smith, had among other symptoms this peculiar and constant one in the head: A sort of creaking, straining, and drawing, like the noise of a corn-stalk fiddle, greatly interfering with sleep. Dr. Sarah Hogan gave Calc. fluor . with complete success in a case of flatulency in a pregnant woman. The patient passed through the labour quite easily, whereas the previous labour had been very difficult. In many other cases Dr. Hogan found the remedy facilitate labour. She found flatulency a marked indication for the remedy independently of pregnancy. In hæmoptysis it has been used with success, its effect being apparently to cause contraction of the blood-vessels. Lumbago from strains; < after rest, > after moving a little and from warmth. Vivid dreams of death. Warmth > ; warm drinks > , cold drinks < throat pain. < From damp weather, but > from fomentations. > By rubbing.

The Guiding Symptoms of Our Materia Medica

Constantine Hering · The Guiding Symptoms of Our Materia Medica · 1879–91

General

Calcium fluoride. The bone salt.
Proved by J. B. Bell on himself and others ; N. E. M. G. , 1874, p. 300.
The provings of J. B. Bell, including those of J. U. W. and J. S. H. (made and led by a master observer) , are confirmed :
"1. By internal evidence ; the symptoms were mostly new to the provers and arose without any apparent cause.
2. By repetition of the same symptoms in the same provers.
3. By striking likeness of some of those symptoms to the symptoms of Calcarea ostrearum, particularly those of the mind and larynx.
4. By equally marked similarity of symptoms to those of Fluoric acid (vivid dreams of new scenes, death of relatives, and of the cadaver).
Thus also incidentally and inferentially the provings of Calc. ostr. and Fluor. ac. are confirmed ; and all by the 15th potency of an inert substance. --J. B. Bell."
The same could be shown throughout the whole of our Mat. Med. --C. Hg.

Lectures on Homoeopathic Materia Medica

Lecture

This chemical union of lime and fluoric acid gives us a remedy with a new nature and properties. However conversant one may be with either or both of these elements, he could not predict the curative powers held in this double remedy.

I refer to its ability to cure indurated infiltrations of glands, cellular tissues and bony formations.

A nodule in the course of a tendon and exostosis, a stony bard gland, bony infiltration in the periosteum, rice bodies in cartilages have been cured by this remedy wonderful to tell, when there was a paucity of symptoms. It will cure of course when symptoms agree, but it needs proving in order that individualization may be oftener possible.

A recurrent fibroid in the hallow of the knee was removed once by the knife, but returned, and grew to the size of a fist. The leg was drawn up to forty-five degrees, and the knee became immovable.

This wonderful remedy was prescribed on the symptoms of the case and the hardness of the tumor.

The tumor gradually dwindled, the limb became normal and as good as ever; this patient has since born a healthy child is still perfectly free from the trouble. It is now ten years since she was cured.

The patient is sensitive to cold, to drafts, to changes in the weather, and to damp weather. The symptoms are ameliorated by heat and by warm applications. The symptoms are worse during rest.

This is a useful remedy in gout, with copious pale urine and diarrhea. The patient is sad and miserable. This remedy has cured a fluctuating tumor on the cranium of infants known as Cephalaematoma.

Blur before the eyes after exerting the vision. Cataract. It cures ulceration of the cornea if the edges are hard; also hard, small spots and conjunctivitis. It has cured adenoids and thick, yellowish green discharge from the nose.

Offensive catarrh of long standing. Scanty enamel of the teeth.

Pain, ulceration and granulation of the throat, worse from cold, and better from warm drinks. Pain worse at night. Large indurated tonsils will be cured after Baryta carb. has failed.

Pain in the liver at night, worse lying on the painful side, better from motion. Cutting pains in the liver, better walking.

Diarrhea in gouty subjects. Itching of anus and hemorrhoids, painful and hard bleeding. Fissure of anus. Constipation.

Copious watery urine. Strong smelling urine. Urine causes smarting when passing.

Indurated testes. Nodular testes.

Varicose veins of the vulva. Uterine fibroid.

Hard nodules in the mammae.

Dryness and tickling in the larynx. Desire to clear the vocal cords. Hoarseness after reading aloud. Hacking cough after eating, and in cold air, from tickling in the larynx. Spasmodic cough.

It cured an exostosis at the angle of the eighth rib.

It cured a lumbago, worse during rest, and better from heat, after Rhus had failed. Pain in back, extending to the sacrum. Indurated cervical glands.

Vivid dreams, and unrefreshing sleep. jumps out of bed in a dream. it is similar to Silica in suppuration.
