I was actually thinking about it...there may be another one to add to the list...so 9 non-dynamic causes of diseases and obstacles to cure. I'll get the ball rolling...(if you'd like to add on, please copy and paste the whole list in your reply)

ok, folks, we've got a good start so far!

i want to ask again...why is it so important to diagnose the primary cause of disease? because if it's determined that the primary cause of a disease is not dynamic and is instead, say, a mechanical or a hygienic cause, then a homeopathic Rx will not cure and we'll be wasting the patient's time as well as our own. (remember Andre's previously mentioned case with the patient who had low calcium, low iron and low albumen? he consistently responded well to Rx’s only to later relapse without ever reaching cure. Andre became suspicious and recommended him to see a gastroenterologist who did an endoscopy and found sclerosis of the ileum. After a biopsy, it was found that he had a wheat allergy and therefore never needed homeopathic treatment. Once the hygienic factor was removed, i.e. wheat from the diet, he recovered completely.)

a "Rx" = that which fixes the problem, e.g. hunger is remedied by food (and not water, a cigarette or a homeopathic Rx) and the appropriate Rx is the one that addresses the primary cause of the disease and so it's important that we diagnose the primary cause of disease in every case we take. in fact it should be the first question in our mind when analyzing our cases, "Is this a case for homeopathy?" i.e. is it dynamic?

so let's keep this good start going! which primary causes of disease will not be helped by a homeopathic Rx and which obstacles to cure also limit the healing of a patient? (if any of you feel shy of being wrong, please don't. remember that our forum is here for us to learn and grow together, without judgment. we're all here for the same purpose, the most noble of all...to help our fellow sistren and brethren. so let's be unabashed in our desire to learn to do so and be supportive, not only of each other, but of ourselves. the way i look at it, and i tell this to kids that i teach all the time, each time we offer an answer that's not the one we're looking for, it only helps us to carve out and get closer to understanding the correct one. we're all a family here, inside and outside of our forum so let's help each other grow and heal.)



1. mechanical
- a mechanical problem, e.g. broken arm, needs a mechanical solution

2. hygiene = lifestyle
- the following posted responses all fall under hygiene: living conditions, faulty nutrition, lack of exercise/physical fitness
- in cases of poor hygiene (Aph. 77), the patient only need make appropriate lifestyle changes
- e.g. bladder cancer from alcohol, anemia from veganism, sepia Sx’s from licking the paint brush tip

3. environmental
- i.e. pollution
- "living conditions" may also lead to environmental causes of disease, e.g. Andre had a case of a lady with breast cancer who had no impinging hygienic factors. Her diet and lifestyle were clean and she was without stress, i.e. no triggering factor. Her disease was purely an environmental type of cancer, from environmental estrogen, i.e. a victim of pollution, but this is very rare. Usually disease is a combination of pollution and something from your life that is unhealthy.

considerations:

1. climate - as a primary cause of disease and/or obstacle to cure:
a) it would seem to fit under hygiene as a patient would only need to make appropriate lifestyle changes to compensate for adverse climate conditions
b) a sensitivity to climate may also be dynamic in nature, i.e. a physical general that would heal with the right Rx

nicely done, olga!

1. mechanical

4. chemical (= poisoning? Andre never went in depth with this one but mentioned porphyria as an example of a purely chemical disease...so i imagine that as lead poisoning can lead to porphyria he means poisoning)

lol...pat sajak i could understand but even vanna?

I can't believe I couldn't get this-

Obstacle to Cure is LESION!

Oh shit! I just got here! I appreciate you guys doing all the work...I am simply not able to be here every day right now.
Is there a way to get an email notification about quizzes and polls?

This is really great, by the way!
