Treatment
Previous Treatment:
Feuillerade has taken Sloane's prescription of 'ye Electuary and ye marsh-mallows' since last Sunday.
Ongoing Treatment:Sloane is to ask Mr Bernin 'whether I must continue ye Electuary and ye Matthes tea, or what else you think proper for me to do'. He wants to know if he can go for horseback rides and what he can drink with his meals. He thinks 'that red port and water whch has been my usual liquor for many years' is no good for him. He thinks mead might be a good replacement.
Response:He continues to 'void blood with [his] urine' and has done so throughout his trip to London. In the last '8 or 9 hours' he has not had blood in his urine.
