Necrotizing Fasciitis
As we are confronted lately with the results of overuse of antibiotics,
homeopathy stands before a great challenge. About necrotizing fasciitis,
a strong syphilitic condition with early necrosis and death, I was
thinking of Cantharis. Kent writes: “The most important feature
of this medicine is the inflammatory condition, and the most important
characteristic in the inflammation is the rapidity with which it
develops into a gangrenous state. Inflammatory conditions follow
a definite course for days, but when this medicine is put upon the
part internally, the inflammatory state terminates in death of the
part with great rapidity."
(Editors’s note : Other remedies for necrotizing fasciitis
include Bell, Tarentula c., Lachesis, Crotalus h., Rhus tox, Arsenicum
a. )

Some Cautions on Mercurius vivus
Never give Mercurius with a dry skin. T.K. Moore
Do not give too many doses of Mercurius in Psoric cases. Look for
a deeper medicine. It should not be given oftener than twice in
a winter. J.T.Kent
Mercurius should not be given before or after Silica. Hepar Sulph
is the intercurrent. Silica follows well after Hepar and Hepar follows
Mercurius. J.T.Kent
Be careful how you give Mercurius. It is a treacherous medicine.
It seems often indicated; you give it and get relief, but your patient
is worse again in a few weeks. E. A. Farrington

Winning by a Hair
68 yr old male :. I experienced quickly graying and loss of hair
on the head. Within 3 days of administering Anacardium 30 (as a
constitutional) I noticed 80 to 90% decrease in hair loss. Over
4 weeks my hair returned to its original color. This effect has
been observed by friends, neighbors, relatives. I am not recommending
this for graying hair and hair loss, but only as a possible effect
to be added to the symptomatology of Anacardium o.

Keep a Clean Mortar
After completion of every 3 hours of trituration, the mortal pestle
and spatula are to be scalded with boiling water and wiped quite
dry and clean. A further precaution is exposing the mortar, pestle
and spatula to a heat approaching red heat….so as not to spoil
any medicine that will be triturated in the future.
