Symptoms of DiseasedLiver

DAIN in the right side, under the l edge of the ribs, increases on pres sure; sometimes the pain is in the left side; the patient is rarely able to lie on the left side; sometimes the pain IS felt under the shoulder blade, and 1t frequently extends to the top of the shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken for rheumatism in the arm. The stomach is affected with loss of appe- tite and sickness; the bowels in gen. eral are costlve, sometimes alternative with lax; the head Is troubled with pain, accompanied with dull, heavy sensation in the back part. There IS generally a considerable loss of mem ory, accompanied with painful sen sation of having left undone some thing which ought to have been done. A slight, dry cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient complains of weariness and debility; he IS easily startled, his feet are cold or burning, and he complains of a prickly sensa- ton of the skin; his spirits are low; and although he is satisfied that exer- else would be beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely summon up fortitude enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts every remedy. Several of the above symptoms attend the disease, but cases have occurred where few of them ex- isted, yet examination of the body, after death, has shown the LIVER to have been extensively deranged.
