Edgar Cayce Readings, 5618-1

EC: In this body here of Dr. [5618], we find many conditions that are abnormal. We find many organs functioning imperfectly. We find some very exaggerated functioning, hence there is both an organic and functional trouble. Now as to the organs and their functions, we find, first in the head at times an over supply of blood, causing great pains at times to the frontal portion of the head and face. The blood supply in itself is below normal in the numbers of building forces in the system, that is the red blood is below normal. We find some trouble through the larynx in the throat caused from cold and congestion through the blood. The trouble in the throat is of long standing, some inflammation through bronchials and upper part of the lung. The anemiatized condition has produced exaggerated condition at times. We find the lungs choked from congestion and cold. We find old tubercular cells in the left lung, some of which have renewed activity, though no broken cells - they are within themselves still being supplied by lymph and forces by circulation. In the cardiac plexus find exaggerated functioning of the nerves and muscular forces to the lungs, heart action and refractory supplying forces, from these to the stomach. Condition in the stomach and nerve force and supply produces over-exaggerated forces here at cardiac plexus. Conditions we find in the stomach over-exaggerated functioning of the duodenum or lower stomach, fluids from the lower stomach are carried back to the stomach itself. Find the lower end of the stomach choked or enlarged - that is the outside tissues are enlarged, making the opening smaller, caused from nature trying to keep that which should have passed in its proper channel - in other words the condition is likened to flues in a boiler which are full of scales - enlargement is by nature trying to properly carry off that which should have passed properly. There is a lack of lactic fluid, too much hydrochloric is being kept in. The left lobe of the liver is inactive, the right is enlarged. The gall ducts are almost empty, producing condition of the complexion, bile is in the whole system - not eliminated. Kidneys are enlarged in attempting to eliminate from the system so much of the acid being carried to other portions of the system - this has enlarged these organs themselves. To restore this body to normal condition, there should be used in the system those properties which will establish as near as possible a connection between the stomach and intestines. Properties which will allow passage through the system, so that there can be taken into the system that which will build it up. Take first, oil which will not act on the system itself but which will be absorbed by enlarged glands. Russian oil or Usoline should be taken, which carries little paraffin into the system. This should be taken until it will pass entirely through the system - even working it by manipulation through the stomach, take a tablespoonful 3 or 4 times daily. After it has passed or begun to pass through the system, take with the nourishment that is being given, that is eggs and milk, extract of beef - not the beef itself, with a small quantity of lime water which should be full of the elm and tolu. Take nothing that will produce heat or temperature, nor a stimulant that excites muscle or nerve forces, that is, no alcohol, till the system is thoroughly cleansed to the lower stomach. Any stimulant that is taken should be that which will act to the respiratory organs, producing perspiration to relieve the force on the tissues. As soon as the body is able, should move to a higher altitude. Other conditions in the body that is, the blood will exert themselves and be relieved through the action to the system. An intestinal wash would be good - not an acid but alkaline. Arrowroot, balsam and lime properties should be taken into the system.
