Based on the scientific understanding and explanation of homeopathic therapeutics I propagate, I AM INTRODUCING A NEW CONCEPT OF CASE TAKING, CASE STUDY AND GRADING OF SYMPTOMS, THAT DIFFERS FROM OUR ACCEPTED METHODS. This new concept is only in its evolutionary stage. I am working up on it to make it more perfect and systematic.
According to my view, diseases are deviations in biochemical pathways caused by material level molecular errors in the organism. These deviations are primary factors of diseases. They are expressed through diverse groups of objective and subjective symptoms. Symptoms are only secondary factors.
Classifying and grading of symptoms is a very important step in homeopathic case study and selection of similimum. I am considering a different way of classifying symptoms instead of existing ones.
So far, we were primarily classifying symptoms as ‘physical’ and ‘mental’, considering 'mentals' as decisive factors in selecting similimum. This method of classification is based on the theory that diseases originate in the level of 'vital force'.
According to my observation, this classification is not appropriate, and does not agree with the explanation of homeopathy based on the concept that diseases originate as material level 'molecular errors' in the organism.
There are many ‘physical’ symptoms that are ‘subjective’. ‘Numbness’ is a ‘physical’ symptom, but it is not ‘objective’- it is subjective. ‘Chilliness’ is physical, but subjective.Same way, all ‘mental’ symptoms are not subjective. ‘Laughing immoderately’ is a mental symptom, but it is objective.
According to the new method I propose, we should classify symptoms primarily into:
A. SUBJECTIVE SYMPTOMS
SUBJECTIVE SYMPTOMS are the effects of 'molecular errors' reflected in the consciousness of the individual, mediated by central nervous system. They reflect even minute micro-level errors in the organism. They cannot be observed with our senses with or with out the help of any devices. They can only be 'felt' or 'experienced' by the individual. SUBJECTIVE symptoms play a decisive role in identifying exact molecular errors and selecting the appropriate similimum.
B. OBJECTIVE SYMPTOMS
OBJECTIVE SYMPTOMS are the gross tissue level reflections of underlying 'molecular errors'. They are observed by the individual himself, the physician or the family members, with sense organs aided or unaided by any devices. Observations through physical examinations and laboratory investigations also belong to this class.
Observing objective symptoms along with associated subjective symptoms help us to identify the exact molecular errors, which is necessary for selecting appropriate similimum.
A. SUBJECTIVE SYMPTOMS can be then classified into ‘subjective mentals’ and ‘subjective physicals’.
‘Subjective mentals’ can be divided into ‘subjective mental generals’ (SMG) and ‘subjective mental particulars’ (SMP)
‘Subjective physicals’ can be classified into ‘subjective physical generals’ (SPG) and ‘subjective physical particulars’ (SPP).
B. OBJECTIVE SYMPTOMS can be classified into ‘objective mentals’ and ‘objective physicals’
‘Objective mentals’ can be divided into ‘objective mental generals’ (OMG) and ‘objective mental particulars’ (OMG).
‘Objective physicals’ can be classified into ‘objective physical generals’ (OPG) and ‘objective physical particulars’ (OPP).
According to their importance in selecting similimum, we can list symptoms in the following order:
1. SMG= SUBJECTIVE MENTAL GENERAL
2. SMP= SUBJECTIVE MENTAL PARTICULAR
3. SPG= SUBJECTIVE PHYSICAL GENERAL
4. SPP= SUBJECTIVE PHYSICAL PARTICULAR
5. OMG= OBJECTIVE MENTAL GENERAL
6. OMP= OBJECTIVE MENTAL PARTICULAR
7. OPG= OBJECTIVE PHYSICAL GENERAL
8. OPP= OBJECTIVE PHYSICAL PARTICULAR
During CASE TAKING, when we observe an OBJECTIVE symptom, we should look for associated SUBJECTIVE symptom also. Then only it becomes a COMPLETE symptom. For example, if ‘eruptions on skin’ is a OPP, ‘itching amel by warmth’ may be associated SPP. Then it becomes a COMPLETE symptom. All symptoms we call modalities, sensations and concomitants would belong to any of these categories. Obviously, a modality may be subjective or objective, physical or mental, general or particular. Its importance also vary accordingly.
‘Always lying down’ may be a OPG. Its associated SMG may be ‘desire to lie’, or SPG may be ‘weakness’.
‘Anxiety while eating’ is a SMP. ‘Eating in a hurry’ may be its associated OMP.
‘Numbness of lower limbs’ is a SPP. ‘Numbness amel by motion’ may be associated SPP. ‘restless limbs’ may be associated OPP.
When OPP is restless limbs, associated SPP may be ‘pain limbs amel by motion’, or it may be associated with an SPG ‘restlessness’, or SMG ‘anxiety’.
SMG, SPG, OMG and OPG jointly decide the CONSTITUTION of an individual.
If you follow this new method of CASE TAKING and GRADING OOF SYMPTOMS, selection of similimum becomes more easy and accurate. I have found excellent outcomes by following this method
This new concept of case analysis is only in its evolutionary stage. I am working up on to make it more perfect and systematic.
SUBJECTIVE SYMPTOMS are FOUR types:
SUBJECTIVE MENTAL GENERALS
SUBJECTIVE PHYSICAL GENERALS
SUBJECTIVE MENTAL PARTICULARS
SUBJECTIVE PHYSICAL PARTICULARS
OBJECTIVE SYMPTOMS are FOUR types:
OBJECTIVE MENTAL GENERALS
OBJECTIVE PHYSICAL GENERALS
OBJECTIVE MENTAL PARTICULARS
OBJECTIVE PHYSICAL PARTICULARS
MENTAL SYMPTOMS are FOUR types:
SUBJECTIVE MENTAL GENERAL
SUBJECTIVE MENTAL PARTICULAR
OBJECTIVE MENTAL GENERAL
OBJECTIVE MENTAL PARTICULAR
PHYSICAL SYMPTOMS are FOUR types:
SUBJECTIVE PHYSICAL GENERAL
SUBJECTIVE PHYSICAL PARTICULAR
OBJECTIVE PHYSICAL GENERAL
OBJECTIVE PHYSICAL PARTICULAR
GENERAL SYMPTOMS are FOUR types:
SUBJECTIVE MENTAL GENERAL
SUBJECTIVE PHYSICAL GENERAL
OBJECTIVE MENTAL GENERAL
OBJECTIVE PHYSICAL GENERAL
PARTICULAR SYMPTOMS are FOUR types:
SUBJECTIVE MENTAL PARTICULAR
SUBJECTIVE PHYSICAL PARTICULAR
OBJECTIVE MENTAL PARTICULAR
OBJECTIVE PHYSICAL PARTICULAR
Find CONSTITUTIONAL SIMILIMUM using GENERALS (SMG+SPG+OMG+OPG)
Find PARTICULAR SIMILIMUM using PARTICULARS (SMP+SPP+OMP+OPP)
Find ANTI-MIASMATIC DRUG using 'miasmatic study' of history of 'infections ans allergic histories'.
Then prescribe CONSTITUTIONAL SIMILIMUM+PARTICULAR SIMILIMUM+ ANTI-MIASMATIC.
This is a TOTAL CURE prescription.
