GC: You will answer the following questions, as I ask them, regarding this body:
-
(Q) What changes have taken place in the lungs with treatment? (A) EC: The muscular tissue in lung, the cell, as it were, in lung through which clarification, oxidization, takes place has been strengthened and improved.
-
(Q) What is the condition of the lungs at the present time? (A) These are very good. There is still some congestion in spots wherein the bacilli has attacked the blood and causes the improper oxidization in system, gives distress at times in the blood supply.
In the condition wherein the body needs correction more at present from long condition is in the manner in which the liver clarifies, through the emunctories of same, the blood before entering the lung, and after leaving lung, for with this condition as exists in liver, lung cannot clarify properly until proper eliminations take place in the liver proper.
Now, we find this in great deal better conditions, and the amount of poisons, of toxins, as have been carried in system greatly diminished, yet there meeds be that perfect clarification through lung and liver, that same may correlate in their functioning, for as we have with the existing condition, the blood supply, becoming super-heated by the exercise or taxing of body, brings too much of blood to or from a given position in body. Now, as we have, the circulation produces in its course the general form of a figure eight, passing then we see twice through liver and heart forces. When super-heated by any undue action, the calling, or filling, of liver or of lung gives depression in the left side, upper portion of lung, dilating heart.
Then, to reduce this, keep that stimulation for the liver and the excretory system, or emunctories in same. We will find by aiding the clarification of the blood in lung, in liver, by the direct rays of Alpine rays, or rays from the Alpine light, would assist in relieving this condition. This should be directed about two and a half to three feet from the body for at least two and a half to three minutes in liver and in lung region, upper portion, left side, lung, central portion liver.
-
(Q) Is there any involvement of the heart? If so, what? (A) Only the dilation of same with undue exercise.
-
(Q) What is the cause of the shortness of breath? (A) Super-heating of blood supply, causing the body, as it were, to gasp for breath, for the lungs lack the capacity of being able to extricate blood, or to draw blood. They each act in a different way. Once we will find it will be lack, again it will be the too fullness of same. When we have too fullness of same, gasp or grasp for breath, full heart, and pains. When the lack of it, we have the depression and aching through those portions of the body wherein the lack of supply comes, dead, numb, tingling feeling.
-
(Q) What causes the aching in left arm and in chest? (A) This same condition. Lack of blood when there’s aching in arm and chest. Fullness in heart and depression, there’s shortness of breath, too much fullness in lung.
-
(Q) What is the general condition of the body? (A) Greatly improved from that as we have had before. Only necessary, as we would find, to clarify, stimulate, blood flow, especially in liver and in lung with the treatments as have been given, osteopathically, and using the strong ray, or we would have the same effect were the body to go to very warm clime, rest and take sand and sun baths.
-
(Q) Any other treatment? (A) Clarification, oxidization, in the manner which we will have through assimilation through the system, as outlined, using consistency and persistency, we should bring the body, and will bring the body to the normal forces.
-
We are through for the present.

Reports & Follow-up
R1. 8/1/25 [4300]‘s ltr. to EC:
Mr. Edgar Cayce, Dayton, O.
Dear Brother Cayce:-
I am writing you from a country place in western Indiana where I came to spend several days during my vacation season.
I am planning to go next week to Rochester, Minn. to the Mayo Clinic for a thorough examination and treatment. My case has grown steadily worse until I am face to face with the possibility of giving up work entirely. My heart is not right. Perhaps the Mayos can tell just what is working on it and causing the trouble.
The expense of a trip to Minnesota will be much, as you know, and I have already spent so much in an effort to get well that I have but very little left to spend. In fact my present bank account will scarcely be able to take me to the Mayos, in case I should have to stay longer than a few days.
I am wondering, Brother, whether you would not feel like helping me to make the trip. Inasmuch as I was not cured by your treatment, I thought you might, under the terms of our agreement, be willing to refund at least a part of the fee paid you a year ago last January. May the blessings of the Father be upon you in all your work, and may He guide in this matter.
Very Sincerely
Yours in the Lord,
R2. 8/13/25 EC’s ltr. to [4300]:
Mr. [4300]:
Dear Brother [4300]:
I’m sorry indeed to know that your condition has grown to such a state that you find it necessary to go the Mayo’s for an examination, but I certainly hope that this will prove most successful and that you will obtain the relief that you so desire. I would be very glad to contribute to this to aid you in gaining your health if I was financially fixed so that I could do so, but as perhaps you realize, although you paid twenty-five dollars for the work that we tried to do, I have paid out a little bit more than a hundred dollars to ones who have tried to be of assistance to you, and this is as much, and really more, than I am financially able to do. I assure you, however, I shall be glad to do whatever it is possible for me to do from time to time. I hope that you will have a very successful trip and receive the very best attention. I know of course of the work of this institution and how they operate same, and I know you’ll see the care and attention the same as if you were paying them a thousand dollars for an examination.
I trust you will let me hear from you from time to time. With kindest personal regards,
Sincerely, Edgar Cayce EC:GD
