Excerpt from State Hospitals Bulletin, 1896, Vol. 1: A Quarterly Report of Clinical and Pathological Work in the State Hospitals (for the Insane), And Their Pathological InstituteCase IL - Man, aged 47, by occupation machinist, of German descent, was admitted to the Utica State Hospital, February 4, 1893. Previous history of the patient was negative, both as regards his family and himself. During his stay at the hospital he was usually quiet but had occasional periods of excitement. He was controlled by delusions of a persecutory nature, referring particularly to the imaginary in¿uence of electricity. He also believed that his wife was a bad woman. As time went on, he grew quieter and more feeble-minded and ex pressed his delusions less freely. About ]une Ist, 1895, he first com plained of headache, which he located in the frontal region. Nothing serious was thought of this symptom at first, but after some weeks it was observed that the cephalalgia had not diminished, but had become more severe, and upon percussing the head the pain was increased when the frontal region was approached. When asked for the cause of his headache, patient claimed that it was due to the electricity that was put into him by the doctors and others about him. At this time considerable doubt was felt as to the exact nature of the trouble, but the supposition that patient's headache was due to gross brain disease, and that a syphilitic history may have existed, was assumed and he was put upon appropriate treatment. N o tuberculosis or kidney disease was present. A note was made in the case-book September I 5, 1895, stating that patient was growing greatly confused and stupid. He complained still of severe headache which was not affected by ano dynes. On October Ist he was confined to bed. He was now stupid and at times partially comatose, and during his brightest periods the only matter he would refer to was headache. On October 7, 1895.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
