Edgar Cayce Readings, 333-11

Time and Place: 4:10 P. M. Eastern War Time. ..., Md.

TEXT

GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with further suggestions for corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
EC: Yes, we have the body here. Many changes have been brought about with this body since last we had same here.
As we find, these are rather disturbing conditions and of an acute nature, but need not necessarily cause overanxiety - if those precautions are taken as may be indicated for this body in the present.
There has been a tendency for the body to have a great accumulation of poisons or toxic forces through the body. And with the upsetting that has come from those things which have caused a contraction through the abdominal area, pressures have been brought about in the solar plexus center.
Thus there is caused the dizziness, the swelling in portions of the body.
Have immediately, as soon as practical, - first, - very carefully given, - a good, thorough colonic irrigation to cleanse the system. Take plenty of time, but use plenty of water. Do have it body temperature, and do put soda and salt in the water to be injected. Put a heaping teaspoonful of table salt in a level teaspoonful of baking soda to each half gallon of water used, but use as much as three to four gallons, - not all at once, to be sure, but in the cleansing - and be sure to have it body temperature, not hotter, not colder. Then in the last rinse water, put at least two tablespoonsful of Glyco-Thymoline to the gallon of body temperature water, see?
Let the body rest thoroughly after same; keeping quiet; not sitting up wholly, but with the heat applied, and the head plenty high, give a thorough massage. Rub away from heart and head, and to the central portions - or the eliminating portions of the system; from the head and arms downward; from the feet upward; stimulating this solar plexus center especially, with heat.
Do that, and - with this repeated in about ten days - we SHOULD bring better conditions for this body.
We are through for the present.

(GD's note: If you have not been able to locate the proper hydrotherapist for giving the colonic irrigation and massage afterward, get in touch with Mrs. Louis B. Poss, 212 Woodland Terrace, Jefferson Park, Alexandria, Va. She has gotten wonderful water treatments, she says, at the Washington Sanitarium and Hospital in Tacoma Park; and perhaps has discussed the Readings with some of those in charge. Phone her and get the name of the person or persons to approach.)

BACKGROUND

See 333-10 on 7/21/41 for after-effects of long standing abdominal hernia, lymph cyst, choking sensation in chest and throat, long standing cough, etc.
10/06/42 He phoned request to EC for Ck. Physical, around 1:00 p.m. "Afraid I'm having a stroke. Sick last night thought I had indigestion. At my office now but am getting numb all in one side, even my tongue - can hardly talk. Will go right home now and be there for the rdg. this afternoon. Phone me tonight."

REPORTS

10/24/42 Mr. [257] reported: "I saw Mr. [333] in Washington the other day. He said that after two or three of those treatments he felt like a different person."
10/28/42 Mr. [333]'s ltr.: "I am writing you in haste from the office as I want to get it off to you without further delay. Thanks to God and you I am somewhat improved physically as a result of following the reading, but as I still have the dizzy spells and am not feeling so good at times, I wonder if you would try again to give my condition a further check. I enclose questions and will remain at home any date or time that you may select. God bless you and many, many thanks."
1. Last Ck. Rdg. says "great changes have taken place." Are they for the better or worse? 2. Has treatment been given correctly? 3. What are further steps to improve the condition of my body? 4. Is the lump under the chin a part of the lymphatic system? Should it be removed; if so, how? 5. Is this lump contributing to the dis-ease of my body? 6. Is the truss being worn causing pressures to be builded in the abdominal area? If so, what should be done to correct? 7. Due to changes in my body,should changes be made in the diet? If so, please give details of proper diet.
11/04/42 See Ck. Physical 333-12.
