remedies and you learn them from the homeopathic MM, proved or not, from the
herbal MM, the naturopathic MM, the TCM ones, the Ayurvedic ones, etc, then
you have a complete picture.
An example is what I have done in my book Dynamic Gemmotherapy (due to be
revised when I have time BTW).
Too potent.....yes, those are, at least in my personal experience, "violent"
remedies and the changes they cause, even towards cure, might be so strong
that they aggravate the patient, something I do not wish to do at all in
this case....or others.
Omentum: congratulations! You saw that organ that is missed by many
practitioners; it has all (and more) metabolic issues you are talking about
plus has the nasty habit of immobilising abdominal organs....unfortunately,
no "specific" remedies but one simple treatment: visceral manipulation......
but this is an hands on learning experience.

Dear Joe,
I don't think anyone was considering the use of complex remedies in the way
you mean - where they are devised specifically in response to the symptoms
and needs of a specific patient, and using the known features of each remedy
Probably you are one of the few experts in knowing how to do this well.
I think all the discussion so far here, has been concerning the commercially
available mixtures that you so correctly describe here as allopathy - and
their misnaming as homeopathy.
It would be a much more interesting discussion to learn more about how to
correctly use one or more remedies in the pathology-oriented approach to
suit a patient, that you are talking about, where the selected remedies
whether herbal, mineral, etc or potentized, are of known activity and are
selected to help suitably in the patient with the presenting pathology.
I'm currently trying to do some of that - matching local symptoms to helpful
remedies - and not succeeding very well yet. But I need to get on top of it
in order to clear the way for a main homeopathic remedy to be able to work
properly.
I think my first experience with it was in 2000 when I needed support for
heart symptoms in a more direct way, and not only a single homeopathic
remedy to effect longterm heart healing. It was a simple example: I used
hawthorn berry herb to strengthen the heart, building from 2 caps to 8 caps
a day and continued that heart support till the simillimum homeopathic
remedy could effect longterm healing about six months later - and then I
tapered off the herb. That herbal support was not enough initially for daily
needs, if I needed to move much. I also needed Quebracho 4C before each
incidence of exertion (exertion being crossing a room to another chair for
example), as that gave me the extra short burst needed for that activity to
occur.
So my "complex" was then hawthorn berry, Quebracho and a simillimum, dosed
individually as needed. But all three components were specific to my
particular needs and chosen based on their known action.

It's a very important need to meet too.
A single homeopathic remedy can not do everything needed in a case no matter
how well matched it is. It needs nutrition, lifestyle, supplements, and
often local pathology support.
I like the example you gave. And I like the ideas available in your book on
Organotherapy, Drainage Detoxification - which is where I am currently
stuck" with a case.
It seems to me that there is another organ to be addressed besides the usual
ones listed: The omentum. It is not just a fat collection organ; it turns
out it is metabolically very active tissue, and can have a very large
influence on all other organs if riled up during treatment, as it produces
gluco-corticoids, which in turn trigger adrenaline and insulin with their
effects, affect aldosterone, deplete electrolytes, and generally make a
royal mess of the body's metabolic chances of homeostasis.
As a secondary effect, it will deposit edema inches thick, if more toxin is
released than can be handled immediately, which in turn has more far
reaching effects.
ALL these issues are essential to handle and will NOT be handled by the
simillimum remedy - which if anything will release toxins from fat tissue -
but not automatically usher them out of the system.
So the omentum organ (and other organs) absolutely need other options in
place to manage events during handling of pathology and working towards
healthy organs.
As to the omentum as an organ in this regard:
(especially in an abdominally overweight individual). Perhaps the management
of its reduction has to be handled by concentrating on excretory organs,
treating it as if it is an inert toxin storage system like ordinary fat
tissue, but I suspect that will fail. Somehow it needs selection of remedies
for a complex that take into account the glucocorticoids produced, *and* the
effects of those on multiple other systems *and* the toxins released from
the fatty tissue. It's an awful lot that is going to need handling all at
once, with each dose of toxin releasing simillimum.
I've been reading the PubMed website (National Library of Medicine) to look
for herbs or other substances proven to have an effect that may be useful
for omentum "organotherapy, detox and drainage". (ODD for short). It's a
slow process, but i find it encouraging that some of this research is now
being listed at PubMed. [Much of it is from India or Russia that I have
found so far - more open minded places in terms of investigating natural
substances and their abilities, than USA.]
My hope is that as the omentum tends to misbehave metabolically in a way
that throws a spanner in the works during any attempt at homeopathy, it
would be nice to find some remedies that address its metabolic misbehavior
aspects.
Does this "omentum organ health" approach fit with the kind of use of
complexes that you are referring to? "Taking the case" of the omentum and
what it is doing, and working to remedy that somehow, with however many
items are needed to effect the needed results?

Too potent? Please expand on this concept?
Would you expect a snake remedy to aggravate regardless of potency or dose
dilution or?

Well said. If I had any to spare, I'd lend you some hair to put back down
again:-)

Thank you - to you the same.
