Highlights : Nervous troubles, insomnia, paralyses, brain deterioration, atrophy, dementia, Alzheimers; especially after vaccinations, metabolic disorder or syco-syphilis or rickets, rheumatism and phthisis of psoro-syphilitic origin. Oliy: stools, skin, sweat. Neurogenic troubles : colitis; diarrheas; ulcers. A surplus of producing life, nearly unlimited proliferations of pathological vegetations.
Base : Vaccinations; suppressed gonorrhea; inherited syphilis (plus mercury); phthisical; abuse of tea.
After vaccinations (vaccinosis) : rickets; polio; scrofula; pleurisy; nephritis; calculi; rheumatism; chronic neuralgias, lethargy, paresis, a cachexy ( the so called X - disease (like Nux-v.,Sep.)) , neurasthenia, catalepsy, syringomyelia (Morvan's disease), paraplegia, epilepsy; conjunctivitis; digestive disorders; malignancy; eczema; menstrual troubles; inveterate skin eruptions.
All manifestations are excessive, their advent is, however, insidious and sneaky.
Make-up : Flabby; heavy trunk, short neck and thin limbs. Almost a monster : grossphysique without any distinguishing marks, with ugly features, shapeless (like Bufo.); triple chins, broad pelvis, heavy breasts, large hip(adiposis), irregular narrow bossy forehead with thick hair low down, temples prominent, nose thick, massive bumpy cheeks seamed with a deep naso-labial fold, eyes deep-set and ridged, thick confluent eyebrows, heavy jaws, wide mouth, with thick lips, enormous ears. "Buffalo-like." "Too much matter and too little form." "Human gorilla." Puny. Obese, pituitary type with warts, moles and greasy face. Manly, hirsute women. Neurotic. Cachectic. Lymphatic. Scrofulous. Hydrogenoid. Chilly. Drinkers of tea.

Faulty developed teeth, with decay. R. half of head higher and thicker (Agar.,Op.). Prone to catarrhal and neuralgic headaches. Crying babies; with a sycotic taint; from congenital inguinal hernia.
Action : Nervous phenomena with affections of skin or MM; neuralgias from suppressed gonorrhea or eruptions.Marked action on glands. Affects prominently epithelia, first causing hardening, hypertrophy, then softening. Invoked above all for hyperplasias.
"Thuja is now replacing Sul. for therapeutic blockings. Changes in habits, customs, diet and modes of life are responsible for exhibition of Thuja symptoms. Overindulgence in tea, coffee, beer, state laws in regard to vaccination, the vague of antibiotics in medicine, the large spread of immunisers and great patronisation of artificial manures and insecticides in the production of food stuffs tend to create a favourable soil for Thuja.
To conclude : A very deep acting sycotic remedy of the cadre of Arg-met.,Carc., Medo., Nat-s., X-ray etc., to fight inveterate catarrhs, hypertrophies, new growths, phthisis etc.
