In a book by, Schmidt, he recommends beginning a case with a
vegetable remedy whenever possible. Also he makes an exception to
this with Lyc. as it is a deep acting remedy. What have you more
experienced homeopaths to say about this?

... and there was a time in Hahnemann's practice when all his patients got
sulphur, and there is the theory that carcinocin can clarify a case.....
Every physician and homoeopathic practitioner finds during their practice
that some things work better than others, BUT, at the end of the day we are
treating patients and not symptoms.
I would say that it may be a valuable viewpoint/theory to begin a case with
a vegetable remedy, however, where is the similimum in this case??? Aren't
we looking for that first? Each patient merits individualisation, not
shoe-horning...
There, I've done my rant for the week
