Theory of Suppression and progression of disease 15

Chapter 1

THEORY OF SUPPRESSION AND


PROGRESSION OF DISEASE
In the world of homoeopathy every homoeopath seems to be
claiming excellent results, be it with four to five medicines at
a time, with multiple repetitions in a day, or single medicine
single dose. There are scores of homoeopaths, both non-
qualified and qualified (unfortunately), who have been making
diseases and symptoms disappear in a patient oblivious of
what happened next. All the same, they all seem to vouch for
their results. Now the million dollar question is "What is a
Result? Let us assess the following case.

What is a Homoeopathic Result?


A Case of girl with chronic asthma :
Miss V. G. Age 19 years had suffered from asthma since childhood.
After having been treated homoeopathically for a period of 6
months, she was happy. She had no attack of asthma for 1 year.
A year later she came back with a severe relapse. This acute
asthmatic attack could not be controlled by her general physician,
and she had to be hospitalised. Nevertheless the patient herself
and her parents were happy with the homoeopathic result, which
had prevented her from getting regular asthmatic attacks.
An intelligent homoeopath is one who assesses his result by quality
and not quantity. Absence of an attack for some time should be
followed, if at all by milder attacks. This is in keeping with a true
homoeopathic result. A homoeopathic medicine cures a patient by
decreasing his sensitivity of an allergen, in short reducing the intensity
and frequencies of the attacks. Hence a Homoeopath strengthens
the patient and weakens the disease. In this above mentioned case
there was an evidence of the strengthening of the disease. It goes

without saying that one has to encounter symptoms and signs in the
patient which shall indicate weakening of the patient as a whole.

What do we mean by weakening of the


patient?
Weakening of a patient as a whole mathematically point
out to 'Generals' and 'Mentals' deteriorating.
If a patient says during follow-up that he is much better and
his chief complaint is almost cured, one should ask him a
leading question as to how is his stamina and desire to work.
If he says he is feeling weak and has no desire to work or do
anything, then, even if his chief complaint, be it pain, fever,
or loose motions etc. is much better, we can be sure that there
has to be either of the generals i.e. desire for food has lessened
or his sleep now-a-days is disturbed, or if both are not disturbed
be sure that the stools which were normal before are not proper
and he is constipated. Even mentally he might be feeling
disturbed or depressed. Such is the mathematical relation
between the generals and mentals.
Further interrogations revealed the following facts. The girl
who used to study on her own and secure high percentage of
marks, had become 'dull' in the last year or so. Her interest
in studies had 'waned'. She would feel 'bored' to study and
would feel sleepy in her class. Her performance in maths had
gone down. Alarmingly her eyesight had deteriorated over
the last year. Her mother complained that this was due to 'her
not feeling hungry at all nowadays.' She had disturbed sleep
with dangerous dreams. All these were coupled with loss of weight
and dark circles increasing around the eyes.
She was also alarmed by sudden and profuse loss of hair over the
last few months.

Is this a good or bad result?


In the above mentioned case the patient was 'Cured' of her chronic
discomforting disease but at what cost? At the cost of making her
old and setting in premature old age at 16 years, with falling hair,
weakening of eyesight, loss of stamina, for work and studies, and
even loss of interest in studies which she loved before.
We have to remember that our science of Homoeopathy is a
'Holistic' or 'Wholistic' science, wherein we treat the man
in disease and NOT disease in man. It is obvious from the
above facts that the Disease has disappeared but the MAN'S
(patient's) health has not improved but 'has gone to dogs'.
How many of us are aware of the fact that day in and day out,
what we claim as cured, may not be real cures, and may be
dangerous Suppressions.
