Re: [H] Combos and complexes

Just FWIW, I did include that several times. I did mention that apparently
the first combos were made by the early homeopaths, for the use of their
patients while the homeopath was unavailable, e.g. traveling. Those combos
were based on the patients' known histories.

But to John, for e.g., that makes no difference at all, because the moment
you have more than one remedy being given at a time, you are into "not
homeopathy" and you are into having (according to him) not the faintest
idea of how any of theincluded remedies will function. Because of the
presence of the others...

Which I find to be a rather daring denial of the decades and century of
experience...
