## Keynote Indications
Homoeopathic doctors have devi sed different remedies from
cancerous materials, the salient one being Carcinosin.  It is produced
from the cancer of the lungs.  Dr. Br unt experimented on this first and
then Dr. Clarke performed further tests on it.

Carcinosin is very useful in treatment of the cancer of the breast .
Carcinosin is also beneficial for the treatment of varicose veins on the
legs.  By using Carcinosin on a patient with cancer of the intestines ,
the threadworms and other germs thriving on the extracts of the
intestine are expelled in the stools.  In a potential patient of a
cancerous family, the administration of Carcinosin will manifest
externally, the suppressed tendency of developing a cancer in the form
of enlargement of the glands on the neck or the tonsils, which become
very painful.  This is a typical  sign, though not desc ribed in books.  I
have found this in my own homoeopathic experience.  This
potentiality of developing cancer is  not limited to any country, region
or climate, but applies uniformly to the entire world.  People who
show such reaction would bene fit significantly against the
development of cancer.  However,  also according to Dr. Kent,
Carcinosin decreases the severity of pain, stinging and burning due
to cancer .  A patient may live for year s without much discomfort.
According to Dr. Kent, it does not cure the cancer, but slows down its
growth and spread to a significan t extent.  I have often found the
opinions of Dr. Kent to be true.  Maybe his comments on Carcinosin
are also correct.  I have used it in the treatment of some cancer
patients with success.  For years, they did not show any signs of
recurrence.  Thus, for the majority of cancer patients, Dr. Kent is
right.

Besides Carcinosin, two other medi cines have been prepared from
bacteria growing on the cancerous ti ssues.  Unfortunately, they have
not been found to be very effective in the treatment of cancer.  Micro
Coccine has been prepared from Micro Coccus.  Dr. Winter has found
it useful to control the hypersensitivi ty of cancer. The other remedy is
Oslo Coccine.  This has not been found useful in the treatment of
cancer, but has been found very usef ul in treating influenza.  Dr.

Foubister has written in an article that the administration of Carcinosin
does not show up all symptoms of can cer as proving; it only produces
changes in the susceptible area s of the body.  Maybe, the reactive
enlargement of the lymphatic glands might be due to the presence of
cancerous elements.  More testing and research is required for this.
Dr. Foubister has described how, th at after using Carcinosin, the body
starts reacting in the form of elevation of the body temperature.

According to Dr. Foubister, for pe ople who are susceptible to the
development of cancer, the following remedies could be used such as,
Tuberculinum, Medorrhinum, Natrum Mur and Sepia.  The detailed
account of these remedies is found in  the relative chapters of this
book.  Alumina, Arsenic Album, Arsenic Iodide , Pulsatilla,
Staphysagria, Phosphorus and Calcaria  Phos are also very useful and
must be kept in mind regarding th e treatment of cancer.  Sepia and
Staphysagria are deeply related to illnesses secondary to emotional
suppression.  Cancer may be one of  them.  Phosphorus and Calcaria
Phos are deeply related to the cancer of the bone and they are related
to the lungs as well.  Lycopodium is related to the cancer of the gall
bladder and the pancreas.  The usefulness of Lycopodium is in
diluting the bile of the liver.  Silic ea has been found to be very useful
in treatment of cancer of the prostate .  Besides this, Silicea CM has
been extremely useful in the treatment of AIDS.  AIDS, like cancer, is
considered to be untreatable.  In  many countries, under my guidance,
Silicea CM has been tried on AIDS patients.  Many of them have
responded surprisingly well.  Th e medicines related to cancer
treatment need further researc h.  The cancer patient should be
thoroughly evaluated clinically, be fore starting the homoeopathic
treatment.  Reassessment must be done after the treatment has been
given and the resultant changes note d.  Facilities at modern clinical
laboratories should be utilised.

All the homoeopathic remedies for cancer should be carefully studied
and their specific symptoms remember ed.  In this way, everyone will
be able to benefit, along with human ity at large.  Th e condition is that
all successful experiments should be made publicly known to others
for the benefit of the world.  The alternating use of Carcinosin and
Radium Bromide in potency CM ca n minimize the dangerous effects
of radiation.

Adjuvant: In view of the nature and severity of cancer, besides
Radium Bromide, one or more of the above
mentioned remedies can be used.  To prevent the
cancers of the bone and lungs, and their spread,
Phosphorus and Bryonia are very essential.  They
should be given in potency  30 and if potency 30
does not work any more, the potency should be
increased to 200.
Potency:  200 to CM
PS: Should be given once in tw o weeks.  If the surgery
has been performed in view  of the severity of the
cancer, it may be given in potency CM daily for a
few days.  Restlessness after surgery can respond to
Arsenic CM.  Only one dose should be given and
should not be repeated unless the restlessness
becomes severe again.  In that condition, it must be
repeated.
