-
GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for the relief and improvement of the body, and you will answer the questions which I will ask you regarding same.
-
EC: Yes, we have the body here - this we have had before, you see.
-
Now, we find there are a great many changes in the physical forces and physical functioning of the body at the present from that as we have had here before, for many changes have taken place from the outside and from within respecting the manner and way which the functioning of the organs are affected - some for good, some not so good.
-
Those disturbing conditions as we find existent in the body at the present time is a lack of vitality or force within the system to supply or meet the needs of the physical exercises of the body - or, from the loss of blood, from the subjugation of the physical forces and the lack of proper assimilation, brings the forces in the system to that of lack of the proper vitalization to the blood supply as is being rebuilded within the system to meet the needs of the exergencies of the system. Or, we have a blood too low in the vitims [vitamins] or vitality. Hence we feel at the times of assimilation taking place, drowsiness, heaviness to the body of mornings, tiredness, over exertion - as it were - of the body in getting to normal equilibrium. This wears off after the body has exercised a bit, or when the body has gained its normal equilibrium - or metabolism. The fullness as is felt in the extremities at times is lack of the circulation and the lymphatics calling for the blood to that portion of the body. Hence the burning sensation, tingling sensation. Conditions in the feet are from too much relaxed condition in the feet. Hence the necessity of keeping same bound, and preferably should the body be fitted with proper arch supports, and with the manipulations these may be corrected - when the blood supply and the nerve system is rebuilded near to normal. We would use these forces for at least once each week - not necessarily oftener, under the present existent conditions.
-
Have a good thorough massage or osteopathic treatment over the whole system, see? and wear at all times - though be sure and recharge same at least once each day - the Double X Radium Appliance across the solar plexus. That heaviness felt there is the lack of assimilation taking place properly. Hence the tendency of the body to produce over fermentation and acid or gas in the intestines. This will be best overcome by occasionally - especially in evening - using charcoal tablets; preferably those as prepared by the Battle Creek Sanitarium. Use these in this manner and we will find the body builded back near to the normal condition. Ready for questions.
-
(Q) What causes the sleepiness after meals? (A) Given.
-
(Q) What causes the numbness or burning feeling sometimes in hands and fingers? (A) Just given.
-
(Q) Is my health condition caused or brought about due in any way from my “World War Service?” (A) General debilitation of the system, of course this adds some to the condition, but would these forces as given be applied we will find the body builded back to near normal conditions; for with the re-vitalization of blood supply, with the reaction as will be set up from these radiations in the nerve system, we will find the system will cleanse itself and bring rejuvenation to the whole body - for it is still building.
-
(Q) What is this pain about my heart? (A) The lack of the body being able to bring about the proper equalization or coordination, just as outlined. With the CORRECTION of these - not organic conditions from this - but with the correction of the body in the way and manner given, we will find these conditions disappearing. Do that.
-
We are through for the present.

Reports & Follow-up
R1. 2/25/28 EC’s letter to Mr. [3911]:
My dear Mr. [3911]
I didn’t have time to write you at the time the reading was sent on, and I felt sure that was the information you wanted most - but I’m dropping you a line to enclose an envelope with the address of the people from whom you may obtain the Radium Appliance. This is one thing in the readings that has certainly proven very effective, wherever it has been suggested - though they are not suggested in all cases, by any means - I think it would be well for you to get one of these and try it out.
I regret I didn’t have the opportunity to see and talk with you more while in Birmingham, for - to be sure - I can think of many things I would liked to have said to you. I am in hopes that you will keep in touch with Mr. Norman and the rest of that group, and I feel very sure you will be able to get a great deal out of the study club, and possibly when I’m there the next time you will see a demonstration of the work for the Club.
Be sure and let us hear from you occasionally, for I assure you it’s our desire to be of help, and we like to keep in touch with each one as much as possible.
With kindest personal regards, I am
Sincerely, Edgar Cayce EC:GD
R2. 4/16/28 [3911]‘s letter to EC:
Mr. Edgar Cayce, Virginia Beach, Va.
My dear Mr. Cayce:
Guess you have been wondering what has become of me. I began with the treatments just as prescribed by you, and find I have been greatly benefited. I ordered the Radio Active Solar Pad and have been wearing it continuously. I feel that it has been of great value to me. Have gained in weight and am feeling so much better.
Have been unable to be at any of the meetings on account of not knowing the whereabouts of Mr. Norman as you referred to in the last letter. [He [3911] requested an appointment for Mrs. […]‘s little boy, [1289].]
R3. 5/4/28 EC’s letter to Mr. [3911]:
Mr. [3911] Birmingham, Alabama My dear Mr. [3911]
I have been quite unwell myself; consequently the delay in answering yours of the 16th; also in getting the information off to Mrs. […] respecting the reading for her boy [1289]. You know when I get all wrong myself it balls things up for everybody else - delays the whole works, so to speak; but I get sick just as everyone else does when I disobey the laws regarding physical health. I’m in hopes I’ve gotten myself in hand well enough to be able to resume the work, and we trust we will be able to give as much or more assistance in the future than we have in the past.
I haven’t heard from Mr. Norman for some time, and I suppose they have been somewhat negligent in having the meeting. You know it’s one of those things that is hard to get going unless someone keeps right after it. Mr. Norman’s name and address is:
J. C. Norman 713 So. 30th St.
Be glad if you’d phone him - see what’s the trouble with them - what he has to say.
Certainly glad to know you are feeling a whole lot better, and I hope you continue to do so. Be sure and let us hear from you whenever you have the opportunity. Certainly thank you for giving me Mrs. […]‘s address, and we hope we may be able to be of assistance to her.
With kindest personal regards, I am
Sincerely, Edgar Cayce EC:GD
