...I realised now I am going to be asked what is hypophysin?
Hypophysin is pituitary and ant hypophysin is ant pit. It is listed
differently in different books and by different suppliers. I know
Brauer has most of this stuff, Brauer is in Australia and you can ask
from Robert Medhurst. ( I am not sure if Nelsons has it but they
probably do)

Failing which I have found that the radionics made one on the Bruce
Copen machine ( I have no experience with other machines)seems to work
just as well. I would repeat less often for the tincture while the
radionics one seems to have a less sustained effect and needs daily
repeats.

So to recap
cortico [corticotropin], ACTH hormone of pituitary gland
cortisone, extract from Adrenal gland
pituitary= hypophysin which has a posterior and anterior lobe.
Anterior lobe has 6 hormones, post lobe I think has two one of which
is vasopressin ..

Suriya

Hi Shannon,

I seem to remember that Suriya suggested C 12 for this (or for these
kinds of remedies: nosodes). Is that what you remember too?

Also: you have been mentioning quite often adrenal exhaustion, which
is one of the sx listed below. Do you have any experience in using it
for that condition?

Regards

Luise

Hi Luise,
I think 12 and/or 6 is what she talked about; mostly she just said "low
potency".
Re using it for adrenal exhaustion, I haven't specifically. I only
tried it for one person, where it had a dramatic effect but only
briefly, and I think from there we just went back to "the indicated
remedy", and she did finish weaning herself from the steroids...

My first thought is that using this on the single indication of
"adrenal exhaustion" would be similar to using a sarcode in effort to
strengthen an organ--an approach I've played with a little, but not
been happy with the results. (Nothing bad, just nothing lasting.) But
thinking again, I think I need to re-study that remedy, and would love
to hear if others have any experiences with it??
