Vithoulkas gives the definition of cure as "Happiness," and this is what I see as the first reaction in all my successful cases. A lightening of life's burdens as felt in relaxed shoulders, a sense of "Lightheadedness," clarity of the mind, and a relief of emotional tension. Also the stresses of daily life and personality conflicts are far more easily coped with after the Similimum. Have you ever noticed how after a successful prescription to the wife, the husband improves out of sight ??? He becomes a much nicer person in every way. I could give you a dozen stories on this one.

What's more the patient gets an enhanced sense of well being at all levels, the ability to make such of life's decisions as have become necessary, and enhanced relief of symptoms. All this without lifestyle changes. The indicator for a repeat is when the husband is perceived to start getting niggly again.
