Minutus

I like to read "cases" to see how people approach the symptoms and
pick the remedy. However, when I play the
"see-if-I-pick-the-same-remedy" exercise with those cases, I noticed
sometimes for the same symptom different repertories (Kent's and
Boericke's) give different set of remedies or different "ranking" to
remedies. For example, for "rosacea", the highest ranking remedies in
the two repertories are:

Kent's: Calc-sil, Carb-an, Carb-v, Caust, Eug, Lach, Psor, Rhus-t.
Boericke's: Ars. br, Carbo an, Hydrocot, Sul iod.

When you compare the remedy set in the two repertories, some remedies
are not even included in the other!

So, will using different repertories lead to different remedy choose?
Or, do we always need to check several repertories?

Thanks,
Guang

indeed. A lot in Boericke came from his own clinical experience.
If there are different remedies in the rubrics, it will, of course,
lead to a different remedy.
That's why you ALWAYS go back to the materia medica (and a big full
one) to understand the remedy.

And that is also why you rarely use a single rubric to find the
remedy in a case.
You need to have a complete symptom-- one with location, sensation,
and modifications.
In a repertory like Boericke, this is usually found across several
rubrics. In kent, it might be able to find (because of his structure)
a rubric that will cover all three.

Hi,

And these different remedies may all work!! Simillimum
means the most similar!

Dear Guang
this is very important question ,and the remedy selection by repertories is
always a help not the final selection ,the final selection depends on
knowlege of materia medica and provings,it is very difficult even different
doctors make different rubric to the same case!
then how to come to conclussion we are going right way,yes! there is way ,
totatily of symptoms and chracteristics of case to be given maximum
weight,then select rubrics with great importance to thermal reaction of
patient.
there is new software coming in january called 'STIMULARE' That have
thousands of solved cases and with true clinical audio and video
presentations ,this software will help homeopaths to know clinical grading
of remedies,
best regards
Dr Naval kumar

Dear Dr. Kumar,

Whould u pls tell more about "STIMULARE"!!!!!!!!!!

Kind Regards,
Nader

It is not the weighting or the similiarity or warm or cold or this or that. Out there I know is an ideal remedy which matches 100%. Is it similar? I know there is another ideal remedy 100% similar to my case but can I find it? For business it is OK but poor homeopathy needs a complete overhaul and a lot of research to make it beneficial.
