The case
• An extremely agitated and restless dog that seems distressed that this is happening to her.
• Severe separation anxiety from the female owner; fabulous recall; very confident; very bold.
• Gassy and hiccoughs that shook the whole caravan (camping whole time).
• Very smart and a nice dog when she is not so needy.
• She seems to be hot all the time and does not like
coats and jackets.
• Rapid respiratory rate, panting.
Another case of being ungrounded with the mucosal inflammation and nervous agitation that suggests Phosphorus.
Supported by the bleeding episodes and the obvious liver compromise from toxicity I felt strongly enough about needing to help this dog so urgently that I gave Gertie a single PhosM right there in the consultation room hoping that if it was the correct medicine we could get to the end of the consultation without needing to be sedated ourselves.
Follow up
3 weeks later and this is a different dog. There has been a massive shift towards health restoration at all levels. She is much calmer and will sit comfortably for 45-50 minutes. She still has some separation anxiety but that is still improving. Stools are variable but there are more normal stools now than otherwise. She is not chasing her tail anymore. May vomit once a week but not every day.
Much happier and grounded animal that can now relate to people in a normal way.
She is also having some Carduus 6C three times a week and some Vitamin B1 daily and back onto real food (had been on ghastly Hills z/d) but this level of response has to be the result of a resonance with a well selected...probably constitutional....medicine..Phosphorus.
Boericke indicates the duration of Phos is 40 days so the little dog has Phos Lm1 to trickle along with until she is fully restored but she already seems sufficiently relieved. Hopefully she can now use all the Phos “explosive” energy the owner described to me in a constructive and mutually enjoyable way given the level of fondness and devotion they clearly have for each other.
Why do I do homeopathy? by Stefan Kohlrausch, Germany
I do not do homeopathy because:
• Anbtibiotics are so toxic for liver and kidneys
• Cortisone is disturbing the immune system or
• Vaccination can have side effects.
No, I do homeopathy because, in my experience of 30 yrs:
• Classical homeopathy can restore health even in chronic diseases when every therapy has failed,
• Homeopathy can cure severe emotional pathologies like depressions or aggression and
• In acute situations like severe bleeding during an operation it can save a life
There is no need to compare or judge any therapy method at all and you can leave aside any dogmatism and prejudice; they are of no use.
Every patient has the right to choose his preferred method of treatment for his well-being.
Every therapist has the duty to do the best he can to help the patient in the following way: Quick, gentle, safe and long-lasting (Samuel Hahnemann)
He who cures is wright (Parcelsus)!
What is CURE?
One thing is sure: we cannot guarantee health forever. A successful treatment of a disease does not automatically mean that the disease has disappeared. It means the visible or measurable signs and sensations of the disease are gone. This could be a cure especially in acute diseases, where the cause often is an accident or contact with an agent, bacteria or virus.
In chronic diseases the cause is beyond this single contact happening. It is due to an ongoing problem that weakens the emotional balance and the immune system. Such a problem needs the restoration of the inner balance
of well-being that triggers the immune defense and the mental stability. We call this the "vital force".
If a therapy can reach this goal, the durability of the healing is much prolonged and could be called a CURE. Cure means a healing of the (chronic) cause. For example a humiliation that could never be overcome and caused an allergic asthma. The asthma can successfully be ameliorated with asthma medication and allergy management but it is not cured when after ending of the therapy the contact with the allergen would provoke the asthma again. When the humiliation can be overcome by giving a well-chosen homeopathic remedy or by doing another form of therapy, the allergic asthma will not come back. This would be called a cure.
This should be the intention of therapist, owner and patient. For the patient it is healthier, for the owner it is cheaper and for the therapist it gives an excellent reputation and everybody is happy.
This is why I do homeopathy.
