TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, Mrs. [5662], and those conditions as surround the body. In the physical forces of the body we find there are disturbing conditions, and that there are applications being made for the improvement of same, and that the body responds TO same - but in rather a spasmodic manner. These conditions, as we find, affect the body in the blood supply, for there is, necessarily, with the character of conditions, that that produces a DRAIN - as it were - upon the system, causing a tendency toward an OVER amount of the gluten IN the blood supply as goes to make for coagulations in the system. While the condition HAS been termed a malignant nature, as WE find, it is not of the true type of cancer - but more of the gland involved, as a tumorous nature, and that with those tendencies of the system to produce in system that of an acid condition, shows the nature of the condition - as well as the manner in which the drainages are lacking, and as to how the acidity produces pains THROUGH the system where ASSIMILATIONS are taking place; as in the lacteal regions, through the jejunum proper, and creating that of the tendency of constipation - through engorgements and lack of peristaltic movements in the colon proper. ALL these tend to AGGRAVATE, rather than ALLEVIATE, the disorder. Hence the spasmodic reaction, as we may term, in the applications as are being made.
2. As WE find, we would not CHANGE from that as being taken, or the applications from being made, but rather add as these:
3. We would take those internally of the animated ash. BEGIN with an eighth grain twice each day. After this has been taken for ten days to two weeks, INCREASE the dose to a quarter grain twice each day. Keep the lights for the body. These will aid the ash in its activity.
4. In the gland region, under the arm, over the portion of the scapula, we would massage - GENTLY - each day - with those of the Iodex preparation, and keep from the irritation of clothing or pressures on same. We would keep covered with those of a young hare's fur, or rabbit fur - PREFERABLY that recently caught, or skinned; the skin, to be sure, prepared so that no infectious forces may arise from same.
5. For those tendencies to the non-balancing of the blood supply, we would take those of the Psyllium seed at least three times each day; not a great quantity, but taken with each meal.
6. Beware, to be sure, as has been outlined, of those properties in the food values that would tend to create irritation in the system.
7. In taking the ash, preferable that same be put dry on the tongue (OUT of the capsule, not in same) and washed down with water.
8. We will find also that intestinal antiseptics will be well to add. These WE would give as the preference: Take Lacto-Dextrin in a MODIFIED form, as is prepared - and once to twice each week take three to five drops of Glyco-Thymoline in water.
9. Occasionally we would have the high enema to relieve those pressures in the colon. This, after the first two, once a month should be sufficient; but, to keep the gas - and the tendency for the accumulations in system - near normal - MUST be done.
10. Ready for questions.
11. We would not find that, with these applications added TO that being given, there would be any necessity for further operative forces, but a tending to drying of the involved tissue by the use of those things given.
12. (Q) What can be done for the "acidy" taste in mouth?
    (A) That will be cared for by the use of those of the Lacto-Dextrin and the ash, and the Psyllium; for when we remove that which PRODUCES the gases - this METAL acid taste as arises is the oxidization in system see - and rises as belching to the mouth, through the esophagus and cardiac portion of stomach.
13. (Q) Should I have a check reading? If so, when?
    (A) When these have been taken for thirty to forty days, we would check with the improvements - or the changes as might be necessary for the condition.
14. We are through for the present.

BACKGROUND

1. 9/14/31 "Is the breast condition cancer? Will I ever need a breast amputation? Will the breast condition ever be absolutely cured, & with proper treatment, when? Are the treatments I now receive correct & beneficial? How can I remedy chronic constipation? I often get an 'acidy' taste in the mouth - what can be done for it? I sometimes get pains in the intestines - what are they due to? Have had a number of operations - do you see any more for me? Thank you."

REPORTS

1. 9/22/31 Letter: "I want to thank you very much for the remarkable reading, & have already started taking the various tonics you have prescribed, but I simply CANNOT take the Dextro Lactin - it makes me vomit - do you think I can omit it, or can you suggest something instead?"
2. 9/26/31 EC wrote he thought it might be prepared so she could take it; otherwise he'd suggest Upjohn's Citrocarbonate to keep down the acid & tendency for burning stomach.
3. 10/31/31 See 5662-2, for which she was present.
