Dry Dose?

[Dr. Joe Rozencwajg, NMD]

I must be in an unusual masochistic mood today, because I am going to get myself deeper in the mud

Have you ever held a beating heart in your hands, John? I have done quite a lot of open heart surgery in my time, this is definitely not a "gentle squeeze"; the blood hits closed valves and the walls of big arteries at relatively high pressure of between 100 and 150 mm Hg in the healthy person, repeatedly, in what is not a straight vial but a very convoluted surface/volume with lots of eddy currents, definitely similar, if not more effective that hand succussion, IMO.

Now to the complications and drawbacks of the dry dose. You and Sheri are right in saying that water potency, careful monitoring, careful repeating with a slightly different potency are a lot better than "take this and make another appointment"; and I think I have described my way of practicing ad nauseam. Yes we are presented with those "mis-practices", on the list and in our clinics, routinely. What we are not made aware of are the successes of dry doses prescriptions, and Hahnemann was the first to describe them. And it is those situations of aggravations and complications that led him to water doses, then LMs, and it is the problems with all of those techniques that led me to the F series, and the problems that will emerge with it will lead somebody else to refine it even more.

In other words, good homeopathy can be done and is done daily with dry doses (again, I do not use them), better homeopathy will be done if and when practitioners are pushed into learning more advanced methods, instead of being vilified.

Now, a word on speculations and theorizing: I am trying, maybe unsuccessfully, to explain everything I do through the channels of physiology, chemistry, physics, maths, etc,...because indeed I do not like airy-fairy theories that rest on "beliefs", impressions, channeling of masters or whatever else; that is why there are plenty of references in my writings.
H. warns us against theorizing. Isn't writing that "the homeopathic remedy creates an artificial disease that replaces the natural disease, then disappears" pure theorizing? any real proof of that happening? any demonstration? yet that is what the Master said, case closed, believe it or be damned!

I did not say the amount in which one *takes* a dose; "ratio of dilution" refers to the dilute-and-success step.
Difference between X, C and LM scales, for instance.

But never mind, I do agree that it's not a highly significant *degree* of change.
And for most people, repeating a dry dose is not a problem.
Much of this debate is relevant only "at the edges" -- but of course the edges are important in the big picture.

Since you're on the subject of hearts, I take Atenolol 25mg/day the last few years which lowers my resting heartrate, which is about 110 bpm and was prescribed to lower my blood pressure which it does to about 120/80. Sometimes when I don't take it I feel better w/more energy but by later afternoon may feel tired and exhausted, sinking heart feeling. I can get upto 134 bpm resting w/o meds and when working out cardio in the gym can go over 160bpm.
This condition may be more diabetes related but also chronic inflammation, high insulin levels may contribute. Staying on the Atkins' ketogenic diet, which lowers insulin release significantly, keeps the heartrate down and eating any refined carbs and many natural carbs or higher glycemic carbs causes heartrate increase along with blood pressure.
While I hope constitutional miasmatic treatment may help this situation one day, are there any remedies good for this higher heart rate to be used acutely?
I recently started taking herbal Hawthorn and I know there is the homeopathic remedy Craetegus from Hawthorn.
Does higher heart rates necessarily mean shorter life since, guessing, a heart only has a certain amount of beats before it konks out?.
No heart abnormalites on ECG but not sure if heart can become enlarged from overbeating.

Thanks!

I would welcome any comments on the essence (not the facts, but the real
essence) of what Susan stated in her message below.

why does everyone make this so hard and stubbornly refuse to learn how to do it - it is not that hard and makes things so much easier for so any patients - especially so any sensitive ones and there are huge numbers of those. I have not been able to understand why we go through this every few months. For god's sake..........................it isn't hard and it helps so many.

? Why is this tacked onto my post? I use dry, and Cs in water and LMs.
I have never argued against LMs. (Did I miss something?)

just posting on the latest in a long line of posts.

I will not answer for others, but who said they refused to learn?

WHY I do it?
Because I like to understand what I do professionally in the minutest parts.
I enjoy dissecting mechanisms of actions, working on hypotheses "what if...?", trying to look at everything from different perspectives to build a bigger, better, more complete picture.

It is an intellectual exercise that I like, that increases my knowledge, my ability to explain how things work and at times allows me to tweak some approaches to increase efficiency and speed.

I do not appreciate working by rote, according to rules that, as effective as they might be, have not received the research and explanation they deserve based on today's understanding.

It is not propaganda, it is not proselytism, it is curiosity, like that of a child breaking his toys to see how they work and where are the little people who play the music in the radio.

Fair enough?

Joe.
