Hahnemann’s Method of Conducting Provings
“After he had lectured to his fellow-workers on the rules of proving, he handed them the bottles with the tincture; and when they afterwards brought him their day books, he examined every prover carefully about every particular symptom, continually calling attention to the necessary accuracy in expressing the kind of feeling, the pain or the locality, the observation and mentioning of everything that influenced their feelings, the time of day, etc. When handing their papers to him, after they had been cross-examined, they had to affirm that it was the truth, and nothing but the truth, to the best of their knowledge, by offering their hands to him, the customary pledge at the universities of Germany. This was the way in which our master built up his Materia Medica.”

Did Hahnemann Alternate Remedies?
The manner of alternation employed by Hahnemann was that which is in conformity with the change of symptoms, the remedy being changed only when the symptomatic indications called for it. Confirmation of this statement maybe found in footnote to § 40, and in §§ 169, 171, 248, 272, etc.

Dyspnea in Cardiac Disease
A word for quebracho. My wife suffered from valvular disease of the heart for ten years. She became so prostrated that she had not left her room for more than six months. I concluded to try quebracho tincture and administered it in doses of a half teaspoonful three times a day. The result has been almost entire relief of the dyspnea, she has gained in flesh and reports herself as feeling like a new being. I need not say that in this case all the old remedies had been tried in vain.

Dear Dr. Mehra,
Thanks for your comment. I welcome everyone to submit tips to the column. Sometimes they come from modern masters and yes, often from the old books. I find that Kent, Farrington, Hering, Dunham, ML Tyler, EB Nash etc are always relevant. Lately I’ve been tracking down obscure tips from old out of print journals and books. It requires hours of searching, but the rewards are great.

Re: Kidney disease, drugs and dialysis)
Dear Sir,
I have noticed in my mothers health case of Kidney disease that her doctor has prescribed so called medicine with warnings that it actually can harm the kidneys, that kidney patients should not take them. I have brought this to his attention and he did not reply to me and quickly took her off them. She tried the nutritional path on her own but she hated taking so many pills and had a relasp and ended up in the hospital with the same kidney doctor as before, he now has her on dialysis and has given her Hepernan (spelling my be wrong) which with my research says it will cause the kidneys to shut down. She also is back on the meds he previously had her on. She also has arthritis and her doctor told her to take tylenol whenever she needs relief from pain but I thought Tylenol shouldn’t be taken so often for its negative reaction to the kidneys.
My instincts tell me that balanced nutrition, detoxing, and water would have been better for her than all the drugs she has been receiving. What is your thought on dialysis as well as the drugs given to patients with kidney disease… also with your experience is there hope for patients to ever get off dialysis? Thank you for taking the time to consider my questions. Kind Regards, Connie
Dialysis can be done away with Zzingiber and Urea.I gave them to my own brother who was undergoing dialysis.Now he is all right.Another patient whose days were numbered (Doctors told that he will be alive at most only for a weak) ,was also relieved of the problem in a month–both of his kidneys failed ;however he cannot be put under dialysis as the heart is not pumping the blood properly.but after giving the above said
medicines in a month there was a miraculus recovery.Now he is fine.
the medicines are
1)Zingiber and Urea
Doctors opined that the patient will be alive for one week only
SIR CAN U EXPLAIN POTENCY AND DOSAGE OF ZINGIBER AND UREA IN DIALYSIS CASES
