The present attack was of 3 wks [weeks] date: it commenced in the usual manner, but failed to be relieved by treatment. It was accompanied by much costiveness: by vomiting about every other day and by a sense of distension in the waist. The cough complained of was of 2 yrs [years] and 8 mo [months] date; and had succeeded an attack of 'bronchitis'. Dyspnoea had been a constant accompaniment. The legs, she said had been in the habit of swelling all her life'
