Hi Colleagues

Thanks for your input as to what you understand by this rubric.

We await the answer from Dr Schroyen's team.

However, try and breath while you cough. I found it impossible as coughing
is an interruption of the normal cyclic breathing pattern.

My feeling is that this is nonsense rubric.
A bit like the division of "Seeing blood on a knife she has horrid ideas of
killing herself, though she abhors the idea." from CLARKE DICTIONARY page
69 vol 1 - which someone in their own wisdom treated as follows:

MIND - BLOOD; cannot look at - knife; cannot look at (see knife) No
remedies listed (now if they had put Alum here we could not have argued)

When you go to see Knife, we have
MIND - KNIFE; cannot look at a - Alum (only)
Now does this give you the same idea as what Clarke says? Not in a 1000
years!

We must make sure that the 'tools of trade' of our fantastic Art of Healing
stay unadulterated by improper 'provings', improper 'clinical reports' and
poor repertory preparation.

Dear all,

Yes, it is possible to have "repiration during cough"! Here is the
explanation.

Since Synthesis 9.0 we integrated Boger-Bönninghausen rubrics.
They
were placed in between the (existing) Kentian rubrics. Many of these
new rubrics refer to more generalized information.
En easy example: "stomach - noon" means "any stomach complaint at
noon".

The example you quote is the same: the more explicit wording would
be "respiratory complaints during cough".
If you are not aware what this may indicate, you can just go and
search for all "during cough-symptoms" in the chapter "respiration".
Exmaples are "accelerated during cough", "asthmatic during cough",
etc.

If you go to your rubric you will see that most of the authors are
BG2. If you double click on this author abbreviation, you will read
the precise symptom and that it comes from bg2, page 700.

So there is no mistake. In order to better understand the
integration of B-BG into Synthesis 9, you can read some
documentation on:
http://www.archibel.com/homeopathy/synt ... /bbg.shtml

I have to add that in Synthesis 9.1, we have changed the rubric you
mention into: "respiration - cough - during - agg.". This may help
as well to clarify this issue, doesn't it?

Now I have to leave for Argentina LIGA Congress. When I return I
will be glad to explain more. All the best!
