[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. (Notes read to and transcribed by Jeanette Fitch.) Harmon Bro.]

Time of Reading 3:35 to 3:45 P. M. Eastern War Time. …, N.Y.

1. 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:

2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the conditions here that have caused the greater disturbance and inconvenience. We find that these are from rather a combination of sources.

3. First we find that there has been an accident to the body-structure where nerves and tendons for the arm have caused a subluxation in the areas of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd and even 4th dorsal area. Also the circulation to the organs of the sensory system has been slowed.

4. With the lack of sufficient amounts of calcium indicated in the assimilated force of the body, and the lack of proper stimulation, we find that the teeth and gums suffer from this combination of disturbances.

5. Hence the whole nervous system indicates this natural reaction, as does the pulsation and the activity of the heart itself; though these are sympathetic in their nature.

6. We find that first there should be corrections osteopathically of the conditions in the upper dorsal area, also stimulating the secondary reactions to the organs of the head and neck. Thus we will find that all of the organs of the sensory system will be stimulated to nearer normal reaction.

7. We would have these osteopathic corrections made by Coulter.

8. It will be necessary to supply more calcium either in foods or in supplementary ways, to aid quicker with the osteopathic corrections.

9. Also it would be necessary for local applications for gums and for conditions regarding the exposed nerves.

10. The receding gums and those tendencies towards pyorrhea would be allayed by the consistent use of Ipsab as a massage for the teeth and gums. Also these should be treated, some locally, with the dentist’s paraphernalia - the small wads of cotton saturated with the Ipsab and applied in the areas where the conditions are indicated at the base or edge of the gums.

11. It will also be necessary for some local attention by the dentist where there has been the breaking, or the leakage or the exposure of the nerves of the teeth themselves.

12. In the supplying of elements for the body increase the amounts of sea foods in the diet, also the raw foods or vegetables. These should include every character of raw vegetables that may be prepared, either with gelatin or in salads at times.

13. These do and we will make for better conditions of this body, [3696].

14. Ready for questions.

15. (Q) Will this prevent the trouble from affecting my ears? (A) As indicated, all of the organs of the sensory system are affected. This treatment will bring corrections for all the organs. For at times not only is the vision affected and the hearing, but the taste and smell. Even the voice at times is affected.

16. (Q) Did the extraction help cause the trouble? (A) This only made for the condition becoming acute. The sources are a combination of conditions existent as indicated.

17. We are through with this reading.

Background

Background

B1. 9/16/43 Husband [3629]‘s letter: During the same period of time [several years ago] my wife, [3696], has been suffering from a traumatic neuritis of the jaw bone; she too has gone to not a few men in search of relief, but she too has had no results, in fact, nobody has been able to tell her what her trouble is.

B2. 10/1/43 Husband [3629]‘s letter: My wife’s case has been running nearly as long as mine. In 1941 she had an impacted tooth extracted. The extraction was so severe that the nerve was traumatized and she has since developed a very painful and persistent tic in the nerves in her teeth; this is concentrated on the right side although some trouble is felt on the other side.

She too has been to several doctors and the only relief they can give her is through sedatives. Her last physician stated that she had pyorrhea which would necessitate a very painful scraping process. I doubt very much whether this would alleviate the trouble; in fact I believe that it would only aggravate it.

My wife is a rather nervous, high-strung individual and this trouble is, to me anyway, very serious; I am fearful that, unless some relief is obtained, it may lead to more serious consequences. Lately, her trouble has been aggravated further by the death of her mother to whom she was very close. The readjustment to that situation is proving extremely difficult and I am sure that there is a definite causal relationship between it and her physical trouble.

B3. 1/21/44 [3696]‘s ltr. to EC:

Mr. Edgar Cayce Virginia Beach, Virginia

Dear Mr. Cayce:

I also am submitting some questions for my reading on February 5, 1944. My reading is from 3:30 - 4:30 P.M. EWT; I shall be at the above address during the hour of the reading.

My questions are as follows:

1. What caused the trouble with my teeth nerves (tic)? Did the extraction I had just before help cause the trouble?
2. The trouble has persisted for three years; what keeps it up? How can I stop it?
3. This oral trouble, at times, seems to be affecting my ears. Is it? Will it?
4. What makes my teeth so sensitive? Can this be alleviated in any way?
5. What can I do to stop the tooth decay?

I too have been looking forward to the date of the reading. I am hoping, as you say in your letter of December 31, that this may be the means of a real help; I am really hoping so for my husband’s sake because he has been looking forward and counting the days from the moment he first read the magazine article on you and your work. My Xmas gift of Mr. Sugrue’s book has been a real joy to him.

Yours truly, [3696]
