Syphilitic patients often suffer with these conditions. Intermittency of symptoms. Fear of examination in students. Weakening of all senses, sight, hearing, etc. Aversion to work; lacks self-confidence; irresistible desire to swear and curse.Sensation of a plug in various parts-eyes, rectum, bladder, etc; also of a band.Empty feeling in stomach;eating temporarily relieves all discomfort.
