Another try to mt chronic throat problem. Help please Page 11 of 13
This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Crikey, that's a task in itself. It is hard to sum up miasmatic theory in just a few sentences, but I will try.
A miasm is an hereditary 'taint' which is passed from generation to generation, after initial exposure, which never dies out, and shapes the very essence of the individual, affecting every part of his being.
ALL diseases and complaints which are not caused by external influences have their basis in at least one, or more frequently, a combination of these 'miasms', of which there are three generally accepted (+one sub-miasm, which is actually a combination of two of the three).
So whereas an allopathic physician would say, 'you have psoriasis', or 'you have multiple sclerosis', or 'you have diabetes', or any of the other thousands upon thousands of 'disease' manifestations given individual names, a competent Homoeopath will be able to trace these back to one of these 3(4) Miasms.
The miasm then which is most frequently seen to be behind hernias, which are caused by lax muscle tone and structure, is Tuberculosis (the sub-miasm), so it is this we must bear in mind when making a prescription, as only a relatively small proportion of our materia medica is actually composed of anti-miasmatic remedies.
It would be pointless therefore to apply a remedy such as Nux Vomica for such a condition, as this remedy has no anti-miasmatic properties at all, being as it is only very superficially acting, and will not treat the actual CUSE of the condition.
I hope this was conveyed in a way which can be easily understood.

Perfect Dr. Organon.
So my hernia could be dued to a long lasting alterate state of my body because of my chronic problem, is this what you say as well?

Thank you again.
Not BECAUSE of your underlying chronic complaints, it is almost certainly part of the same process generally (and perhaps specifically, depending upon any other miasmatic influences present).

If it's part of the same process, why presents so late? 15 years later? and suddenly? Because of the other miasmatic influences you say?

Suddenly, because it is such an acute manifestation, i.e there is not really any slow build up or gradual worsening of such a condition. The flesh in question simply one day just 'pops out', and this can be for a variety of reasons.
Why so late, this could be again for a variety of reasons, and this is where things get more complicated.
Th first is that the miasm in question could have actually been acquired prior to this happening, rather than being part of your hereditary makeup.
Another, which is more frequently the case (although I am not 100% sure this is indeed the case here), is the nature of miasmatic progression. If this miasm IS actually part of your 'constitution', and not acquired, then you may have been labouring under this all your life, unknowingly, by way of other more mild conditions, and this is just merely the strongest manifestation you have experienced of this so far, or that another less serious manifestation of the miasm in question was supressed by improper treatment, which will quite often result in something more serious as a result.
It could also be that there is a specific life event, which lowers the constitution enough to allow a previously 'latent' miasm to come to the forefront.
More typically though, a miasm slowly becomes active over ones lifetime, and as we get older, their influence becomes stronger.
In your case specifically, I would say that the miasm has either been acquired, or as stated, it is simply the worst presentation of it you have had so far. Out of interest, did you have any kind of acute disease, especially anything affecting the chest, move to a new home, or come into contact with anyone you are not familar with etc etc prior to this complaint occuring?
I hope this answers your questions.

Excellent Dr. Organon,
My hernia is like a 'peak' of an iceberg.
So, I guess I try Calc Fl perhaps 'repair' my hernia (or not) but if I don't 'repair' my whole constitution it likely will reappear. I'm right?
It's a pleasure to speak with you Mr. Organon

Thank you.
AAA peak yes, but possibly not the last or even the tallest, if the miasmatic process responsible is not reversed.
That's exactly right.
And with you Joaquin, I am always here for information or advice.

Dr Organon last decade
Understood.
I'll start today with Calc Fl only for my own curiosity.
Then, in your opinion Dr. Organon, which would be the remedy to begin with, Nit Ac, Silic or which one?
Murthy, Sameer what do you think would be the most suitable remedy?

Thanks for your honesty Murthy. But I think you can give opinion whatever Dr. Organon recommend me, because I think you have a lot of knowledge, which can help.
Anyway, thanks for trying to solve my problem.

My suggestion now would be to begin with Silicea, but I would start low, as there is obvious pathology which needs to be taken into account, and we don't want to cause a long standing aggravation of the condition.
Sameer, what would be your suggestion? and Mr Murthy, your input is always of value, you were part of the case taking, so go ahead.

You didn't btw answer the following question: 'Out of interest, did you have any kind of acute disease, especially anything affecting the chest, move to a new home, or come into contact with anyone you are not familar with etc etc prior to this complaint occuring?'
Dr Organon last decade
Sorry Dr. Organon,
when you say 'prior to this complaint ocurring', what do you refer to? hernia or my general sore throat problem?
By the way, if you are from USA, what time is it now there?

The hernia, and I'm sorry but I don't really want to reveal any personal information such as my location here, the reasons for which should be obvious taking into account the behaviour of one or two members since I arrived.
I have had 'stalker' type problems on the internet before.

I understand. I'm surprised because if you are really in USA it should be very early in the morning.
If question is about my hernia, I must say no. I didn't have acute disease, I moved a new home 4 years ago and any contact with anyone not familiar

Dear Dr. Organon,
My opinion would be to start with just 3 doses of Silica 30C at half hour intervals. Then wait for one week.
What do you think ?
Sameer.

I had already made the same prescription here :)
I would though space the doses more throughout the day, so that they occur at regular intervals.
I do understand your reason for the half hour dosing, but this can be quite a jolt to the patient when prescribing for chronic complaints, and moreover, if I am correct in how you have achieved your quite impressive knowledge in such a small space of time, not everyone is as sensitive to remedy reaction as we are ;)
