An Interesting Acute from Susan Sahota
The most significant case I can think of was a neighbour who had been in hospital. He had blood coming from his rear, his right lung had collapsed and although normally an extremely fit, athletic young man (more of that later) he could barely hold his body upright and could not control the movement in his eyes. It was very difficult to witness how a man could change.
He had been in hospital but as is the state of the health services in this country, he was ‘allowed’ to go home. I checked all the remedies in my kit then. The last one I noticed was Crotalus Horridus. I remembered from a Robin Murphy lecture, that he described it as an ‘end of life remedy’.
I read aloud through the rubrics for Crotalus in Boericke and the young man could not believe how it covered the symptoms he was experiencing. Anthrax was mentioned under skin and the house went quiet. I mentioned above that he was a very fit athletic type, he is a sheep shearer and travels across the globe, Australia, NZ, Chile, USA, Italy etc. His face dropped and he reported that prior to becoming ill he had worked in the worst conditions of his life.
My first thought was ‘I have a child in the house’. He had palpitations as he had a collapsed lung. I found some 200c and administered it. His lungs returned to normal function the following day, and he recovered quickly. He continued travelling the globe with his work.
This experience really made me question the disease/ bacteria or terrain theory. I still see it as my greatest achievement and undoubtedly saved his life. I know he is grateful along with his family.
