Just looking at the patient's eyes to see if the pupils are dilated or constricted, equal or unequal, tells us so much. Yet, how many of us know to do these things. The EMT's are far more homeopathic than they realize and we can use one of their tools, which is already one of ours as homeopaths. O stands for Onset of the pain. Q stands for quality of pain.
S stands for the severity of the pain.
T stands for Time. So you see, we have wonderful bridge connectors between our cousins, the allopaths and ourselves. All of it is like puzzles pieces and once you put them together through non-prejudicial observation, you will get a picture of the patient and that is what you're seeking. Plus, roll up our sleeves, pull out our blood pressure cuff and stethoscope and do some hands on palpation and listening. These small observations are the cornerstone of our trade, too.
