Be sure that the symptom is going to stay, for you will have flitting images. Old symptoms come and go and need no further repetition of the medicine. If you give a new remedy when not needed, you spoil your case. Never prescribe for a moving image, wait till it rests. Tis your duty to understand your business before you attempt to do anything.
Miasms are the foundation of all chronic diseases.
He who sees in Bright's disease nothing but Bright's disease, not the deep miasm back of it, sees not the whole disease but only the finishing of a long course of symptoms which have been developing for many years. If you go at it like a common tinker you may cure acute sickness, but on your life, do not tamper with these chronic diseases. With your best endeavor you will make mistakes, but make them as few as you can.
