Need help with cause of death

[Victoria Cihla]

Attached is a copy of a death record for Elin in November 1768, I think the cause of death says "ditto" which would refer me to the death record above it.  But, I cannot tell what the cause of the is on that record.

If anyone can help, I really appreciate it.

Thanks,

I think it says "hufwudsiuka", head sicknes. Probably some kind of meningitis, that was a big probem back in the old days.

Interesting!  It is so hard to understand what the meaning is for the vague descriptions of some of the sicknesses, but which I'm sure were very well understood at the time.

Thanks so much,
