EC: We have the impressions here, and those disturbances that have been indicated with the body; though it is not in this location in the present. [She later said her husband had taken her again to Dr. Shackleford’s office.]
-
As we find, the accumulations of lymph have been dissipated a great deal, that apparently formed into tumorous natures in those areas back of the jejunum or just above a part of the colon and above the kidneys.
-
There is only some gaseous reaction and a stiffness in the lumbar and sacral area.
-
We would continue the heat as has been indicated to use to assist in dissipation of the disturbance, occasionally; especially after exercise of any great length, or regularly when ready to retire.
-
Immediately we would begin with the properties that have been indicated for the colitic condition through the intestinal tract; the Ginseng and Wild Ginger and THAT combination, see? And this should be kept. [See 340-23.]
-
As to the diet, be very cautious as to those things such as too much meats; though fowl, fish or lamb would NOT be harmful provided these are NOT fried and not too much of the fats of same - these in moderation.
-
Not too much of breads, but corn bread and whole wheat bread are preferable for the body. Occasionally buckwheat bread and rye bread may be taken, or potato bread if it is combined - but these would be rather only once or twice a day, and not too much at the time. Vegetables and those things indicated, as fruits and the like, are the better for the body.

We are through with this Reading.
