Hahnemann's Organon of Medicine
*******************************

Aphorism 78:

'The true natural chronic diseases are those that
arise from a chronic miasm, which when left to
themselves, and unchecked by the employment of those
remedies that are specific for them, always go on
increasing and growing worse, notwithstanding the best
mental and corporeal regimen, and torment the patient
to the end of his life with ever aggravated
sufferings. These, excepting those produced by medical
malpractice (ยง 74), are the most numerous and greatest
scourges of the human race; for the most robust
constitution, the best regulated mode of living and
the most vigorous energy of the vital force are
insufficient for their eradication 1.
Footnote:

1 During the flourishing years of youth and with the
commencement of regular menstruation joined to a mode
of life beneficial to soul, heart and body, they
remain unrecognized for years. Those afflicted appeal
in perfect health to their relatives and acquaintances
and the disease that was received by infection or
inheritance seems to have wholly disappeared. But in
later years, after adverse events and conditions of
life, they are sure to appear anew and develop the
more rapidly and assume a more serious character in
proportion as the vital principle has become disturbed
by debilitating passions, worry and care, but
especially when disordered by inappropriate medicinal
treatment.'
