Scottish Health Board is Compromised

A third health board in Scotland has voted to stop sending patients to the country’s only homeopathic hospital, the Centre for Integrative Care, formerly Glasgow Homoeopathic Hospital.  NHS Lanarkshire made the decision despite the results of a survey which showed that 88% of patients backed the service. The health board voted to cease new referrals after March 31^st, 2015 on the basis of the “lack of clinical effectiveness evidence for homoeopathy”. 

(Ed. Note: When a regulatory body makes a decision against the will of the people, and against all the evidence, one can safely conclude that the board has been corrupted.)

Homeopathy for Infections

I have never seen a patient with a life-threatening infection not respond to the simillimum, regardless of the microorganism.  I can’t conceive of patients dying from acute infectious diseases while having at their bedside a physician who practices genuine homeopathy and God knows that I have seen some of the worse cases with infectious diseases.

Rhythm of Murmur

The easiest and surest way to decide the rhythm of a murmur is to place one finger over the heart, and feel its impulse while the murmur is heard through the

stethoscope.  If that is impracticable, the radial or carotid pulse (better the latter, because nearer the heart) will do, making the proper allowance.

Three Tips from Dr. E.B. Nash

Cuprum metallicum

Mental and bodily exhaustion from over exertion of mind, or loss of sleep. This is similar to Cocculus and Nux vomica. The other symptoms must decide between them.

Helleborus in Dropsy

Helleborus is an excellent remedy in post-scarlatinal dropsies, which come on very rapidly. Here the coffee grounds sediment may or may not be present. The choice

is sometimes not easy between this remedy and Apis mellifica.

Causticum Face

Upon the face we have four prominent peculiar symptoms:

Yellowness of the face.  Sickly yellow (not jaundice).

Paralysis of a rheumatic or psoric origin.

Prosopalgia of the same origin.

Stiffness of the jaws; could not open the mouth.
