The Poisonous Quality Of Muscles Considered.
The usual symptoms , that follow such an adhesion , are great oppression of the pmcordia , strangulation , anhelation , short cough , tingling ears , watery eyes , swelled face and hands , with efflorescence and itchings in the skin ; most of which symptoms I have known to follow the eating of raw hot bread , swallowing the skins of grapes , and even from eating French beans . In all these cases , gentle emetics seldom fail to relieve the patient ; but as sudden disorders of this kind
sometimes prove fatal before help can be called in , oils of any kind , mixed with warm water , taken into the stomach , may , in some cases , have a good effect . Were people of weak stomachs inclined to make the muscle a part of their necessary food , as in some places they are plenty , and are certainly nourishing , I would advise themby way of preventionfirst to
, , prepare their stomachs by gentle emetics , and then to eat of them sparingly , with much bread and butter ; and , by frequently eating them in this manner , those people , with whom such wholesome shell-fish have disagreed , have been brought to eat them without danger . Essex , June zo , 1796 . J , C .
