Calcium fluorata (Calc-f)
Calcium fluorata (Calc-f) appears in 131 rubrics in the Repertory. Of these, 7 are single-remedy rubrics in which only this remedy is listed, and 6 are small rubrics with at most two other remedies. The emphasis lies on Children, Fear and Anxiety, along with Restlessness and Jumping. The picture is of a restless person who moves in sleep at night and shrinks from work by day.
Jumping and Night Restlessness
Jumping is a field of its own. A single-remedy rubric lists the impulse to jump and links it with dreaming: "Impulse to jump - Dreaming, in." Another describes jumping out of bed while dreaming, and the waking that follows. Restlessness is thus a movement that begins in sleep.
Fear of Work
In a small rubric, fear is directed at daily work, in the wording "daily work, of." Anxiety about this work is listed as relating to everyday life and not to individual events. Concentration is described as difficult while eating, with amelioration from the meal.
Body and Pain
Restlessness occurs with pain in the back, individually with fatigue pain in the back and with pain in the hypochondrium. A single-remedy rubric describes clumsiness before the menses, in which the person drops things. Loud laughing is listed as a cause of complaints.
Summary
In the Repertory, Calcium fluorata appears as a remedy of a restless, easily frightened mental state that shows itself in sleep as jumping and waking. Fear of daily work and anxiety about everyday life carry the picture, back pain and clumsiness complement it. Children remain the largest part of the listing.
All rubrics of this remedy, the materia medica and the case work are in Rathmer’s Repertory.
