Hi Shannon, According to Hedwig Imhäuser the 'own blood method' is very usefull in cases of: 1) Acute infections, when a) the simillimum can not be found, b) weak (VF) patient, c) occurance of complications such as enzephalitis, orchiti, parotitis and pertussis. 2) Reccurent infections 3) Allergic r...

Yes, and Nux V and Sulphur are famous for their help in addictive cases. But here yet an other suggestion. I know, what I'm gone say is very controversial from a classical point of view, but, necessity knows no law, so just in case you don't find the Simillimum, Hedwig Imhäuser, a famous German Home...

Dear Rochelle, Upon your question I've thumped again through Portraits of C. Coulter and I must confess: I haven't found the passage cited? I don't believe my eyes.

* mortification (?)
* Delusion criticized

Dear Rochelle, To answer your question, yes I would definitely consider giving Lyc to a patient without digestive complaints, since those complaints have to be considered as local symptoms ('peripheral pathology') as opposed to non-pathognomonic symptoms like the general modalities, the mental state...

Dear Rochelle, Yes I understand your reservations about Lyc. But, as you know, Lyc is quite a 'big' remedy with a lot of different aspects to it, especially on the psychological level. The picture you describe of Lyc is very similar how for instance Sankaran sees Lyc. But look how C. Coulter picture...

Hi Rochelle,

Indeed not an 'open' case.
Sounds like Lyc with Carc as a 'push up'.
