-
GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions, as I ask them:
-
EC: Yes, we have the body here, [3462].
-
As we find, there are disturbing conditions and in the present the more of those sedatives that are being given the worse will be the condition. For it will soon become mental as well as physical. It is already something of a psychic or psychopathic condition. The activity of these upon the system is almost a crime!
-
These are conditions, then as we find them with this body:
-
The blood supply indicated that there are conditions in the nerve systems that cause the blood supply to become almost angry in itself, or to reach boiling points almost at times when she has these temperatures and rages, and at other times the blood becomes almost like ice water in the veins.
-
These naturally make for the aggravated conditions in the activities of many of the organs and the reflexes to the brain, throat, lungs, digestive system, heart, liver and kidneys. All of these suffer, then, under these disturbed conditions through the body.
-
In the nerve forces of the body we find the seat or source of the real disturbance, though there is plenty of disturbance produced in all portions by the reflexes or reactions created in these.
-
The source, though, as we find arises from a digestive disturbance as well as a pelvic lesion, that causes reflexes through the organs of the pelvis; causing the ovaries and the uterus itself to become so contracted at times as to produce almost spasmodic conditions. These are from lesions that exist in the organs themselves.
-
These we would treat in this manner:
-
Do take a Glyco-Thymoline Douche, body temperature, every third day. Use at least two tablespoonsful of Glyco-Thymoline to the quart of water and this body temperature. Use only a Fountain Syringe. Retain this in the vagina as long as practical before it is expelled.
-
Every sixth day take a douche with Atomidine in the water. This would be ten measured drops in a quart of water body temperature. Use this in the same way and manner.
-
Take these douches as indicated for at least six weeks.
-
Begin also with osteopathic adjustments twice each week - or a relaxing treatment osteopathically. This should be such as to cause the body at each period almost to go to sleep. It won’t in the beginning; it’ll almost set the body wild during the period of the treatment. Don’t hurry with these. Gently massage on all those areas where there are the closer associations with the cerebrospinal and sympathetic nerve centers; 1st, 2nd and 3rd cervical; 1st, 2nd and 4th dorsal; 9th dorsal, and then from the 10th and 11th dorsal to the end of the spine. This should be a relaxing treatment, and if you can get through with it in less than thirty minutes, you haven’t done a good job! Relax the body along the spine, not on the spinal column so much itself as those muscular centers in these areas that connect with the cerebrospinal system.
-
Don’t make adjustments during the first six week period but relax the body thoroughly. For we must get this body off of the sedatives - unless you want her to go crazy!
-
Also for the body building forces, prepare Beef Juice for the body to be taken during the early periods of these treatments. Give this at least three times each day, not more than a teaspoonful at the time and this sipped very slowly.
-
When there are those cramps in the abdomen and in the pelvic areas, apply Glyco-Thymoline Packs. Then over the abdomen area and stomach, the liver and the upper portion of the jejunum and through the duodenum - where the Glyco-Thymoline Pack is applied - put an electric pad. Over the pelvic area, at the pubic center, apply over the Glyco-Thymoline Pack only heated salt - as in a small pillow case or the like. These variations will make quite a difference in the results that will be obtained.
-
Every day, at evening, give the body a half a teaspoonful of Milk of Bismuth and five drops of Elixir of Lactated Pepsin stirred in a half a glass of water.
-
The next morning give a light enema - not a colonic irrigation, but a light enema.
-
Do this for the full period that it takes to relieve the body of the necessity of taking the sedatives. These will necessarily have to be given for the first few days that the treatments are begun, even following the massage or the osteopathic treatment, but gradually decrease these.
-
Let the body build in itself the realization that surely there are corrections being made. Gradually then, increase the food values. Stay close to the liquid and semi-liquid foods for the first few days. Gradually add chicken and fish, but not shell fish for this body - though sea foods; not fresh water fish but sea foods. In the area the snapper is very good. This would be well, broiled properly; not too much at the beginning, but this will be digested - if the alimentary canal is kept clear and the general treatment is followed as indicated.
-
Do these, and about the 15th to 18th of January we will give further instructions.
-
We are through with this body.

B1. 10/25/43 Husband’s letter to EC:
…, La.
Dear Mr. Cayce;
I am writing this letter in regards to the health of my wife, Mrs. [3462], who, is 33 years of age.
You see Dr., about five years ago, she began to show some what of a nervous condition. She at once went to see a nerve specialist, who diagnosed the case as glandular, and gave her some shots, which, I think were for the Thyroid glands, after taking six of these shots, she took an awful spell after eating. This spell seemed, to tear, her nerves all apart. Now Dr. at the time of this spell, I could not locate her Doctor so, I called in another, who gave her some medicine and said, that she would be o.k. Well, instead of being o.k. as he had said, she grew steadily worse. It, seemed as thought she just could not eat, after this spell, you see, this spell, put an awful fear of eating in her, and from then on, anything that she would eat, would upset her, and put her in a terrible nervous state.
Now Dr., after this spell, she would not go back to her first Dr., as she seemed to be afraid of him, and always said, that the shots he gave her, caused this trouble.
Dr., in the last five years, she has had, about seventy-five Doctors, each saying something different, and trying different treatments, which seemed to make things worse all of the time. The last Dr., that she had, put her in the hospital for Tests and X-Rays, and the only thing that they found out, was that she had, about seventy per cent more acid in the stomach, than she should have.
Now Dr., this is her condition at present. She has no desire to eat, and eats only soft baby foods and liquids, and just before she eats, she gets a terrible nervous feeling in the pit of her stomach, and the Eustachian tube leading to the ears, closes up while she is eating, which seems to make her become panicky while eating. When this happens, it causes these awful nervous spells, now after the food gets down, it will not stay, she immediately begins to belch, and the food comes back up, in mouthsful, and she gets an awful burning in the stomach, which, bothers her for several hours. Also, if she moves around, you can hear a noise in the stomach, which sound like a fluid. She also, gets attacks of lose bowels, and other times she will suffer from constipation, also, in the last five years she has lost about thirty pounds. Also during the menstruation period, she becomes more nervous, now some months the menstruation is very heavy, and others, it is very poor. When she first got sick, the menstruation stopped altogether for about six months. But, after taking a lot of Theolin, it started again. Now, for the first two years of her sickness she took 1 1/2 grs. of Phenobarbital, then she took Bromides for one year, and now, for the last two years, she has been taking the Phenobarbital again, she also takes Belladonna drops, before her meals, and she has also taken, a lot of Amphojel, and Alkazane, and now she just started to take Creamo Carbonates, and is still taking Belladonna drops, and the Phenobarbital, which she can’t seen to stop.
Now Dr., she is not confined to the bed, but she does not walk outside of the house, and does not do anything, she just lays down, most of the time. She can’t stand much company, does not care to read or write, she claims, that these things make her more nervous. She just seems to be depressed, at all times, and when she awakens in the morning, she is like some one who, has just had an awful fright, and is always, afraid that the ears are going to close up. You see, she has a ruptured eustachian tube in the ear, which causes the ear to close, and she also has a case of sinus trouble.
You see, she has lost all faith in Doctors, the only one that she had a little faith in, is now in the Army, and since he left, she seems worse. The only place that she goes, is in the car, and then only for about twenty minutes.
She has been examined, for female trouble and, they found very little, in fact, not enough to worry about. Of all the doctors, she has had only one said that she was changing life, the rest all said no. She also is the Mother of a fine son, who is nine years old, and is in the best of health.
Now Dr., a friend of mine spoke to me about you, so I am asking, if you will help us, as I feel, and my wife feels, that you can, and what ever the fee may be, just let me know.
She, is in an awful run down condition and has tried lots of tonics, she cannot take anything with Alcohol or Iron.
She is a Catholic and never fails to burn her candles, but she seems to have lost all hope of ever getting well again, and sometimes says it seems useless to pray even any more.
Hoping, that I have explained everything clearly enough, and hoping that I will hear from you real soon, saying that you can, and will help her.
I remain […]
P.S. Sir, I also forgot, to mention, that at times her breath comes in quick gasps, then she will commence to gasp, and she sometimes keeps this up for hours.
