In cancer patients, when painful conditions arise, for instance diarrhea or urinary disturbances, caution in prescribing is necessary, that a remedy not be administered covering only the acute condition. Any prescription based on the more superficial, acute disorder, not covering the deeper, chronic, carcinomatous nature, will result in amelioration of the acute disorder only. Meanwhile suffering from the deeper affection will increase, and the progress of the deeper, malignant disorder will be more rapid.
Any prescription, to be of benefit to the patient, must have the nature of the chronic, as much as the nature of the acute manifestation.
The aim of the physician, first, last, and always, must be to find the remedy which most closely corresponds to the patient, and prescribe for the patient, whatever manifestation that patient may suffer, when the prescription is selected.
In cancer-patients, incurability depends upon the fact that few symptoms except those of the cancerous tissue change are obtainable. The sharp pains, the ulceration, and the anemia are symptoms of the ultimate disorder. Finding symptoms that preceded this period is necessary for gaining any curative results.
Ultimates do not indicate the remedy for the patient.

Hi,
I have studied classical homeopathy. Nutrition, excercise, and especially the way we think (what usually makes us feel) has to do a lot with cancer. How we feel, leads to comfort food or drink that usually make things worst. I totally agree, that alternative medicine and the strengthening of the immune system is the answer. I also found the way Dr’s speak to Cancer patients has to do a lot with people not getting any better. I spoke to a Dr. lately and told them they treat their patients like mechanic repairs or changes parts in a car. We are not cars, we are body, mind and spirit and they need to treat as a whole. I find their so call cures barbaric.
I enjoy reading your material.
Have a great day,
Joanne
Dear Sir,
I read this article. It is not only applicable to cancer alone but to any other chronic disease treatment. Master J T Kent’s quote is reiterated in this case.
It is moreover one of the basic principles of homeopathy and more particularly in the treatment of chronic diseases. Unless this forethought and insight is not put forth in the treatment of chronic diseases, there cannot be a real cure resulting our treatment a futile.
This type of principles should always be waving in the mind so that the number of cures will always increasing. For this, you are instrumental in reflecting the principles now and then and always tend to sharpen the homeopathic mind. Thanks a lot for your effort.
