Like thousands Of others Of our
profession, | have unfortunately |
tempered with mOrphia and cocaine |
with what result it is needless to
state, but it was not long before I |
realized | needed relief. Neither
was | long in realizing that hun
dreds of my brethren were in the
same pitiable predicament. | con-
suited with those Of the profession |
who had never taken the drug and !
they gave me no hope. Their adj
vice was to quit the use Of the drug /
at once. | then consulted with sew |
eral of the profession who were as
| deep in the mud as | was in the |
mire, and they could only tell OF !
innumerable attempts to gain their |
freedom and how a much exploited |
cure had taken the drug from them |
by gradual reduction and the sub |
stitutiOn of tonics, and of their ex-
periences with quick cures, and |
yet had left their nerve system in !
such a sore and lacerated condition
that they were hardly out of sight
Of the institute before they were
/ forced, through pain, to resort to
the drug again. They were not
cured, but reduced.
1t was not long before had
tried every known cure ~ and
finally | applied to a brother physi- |
clan who had great experience in
treating nerve troubles Of all kinds. |
He prescribed bromide of sodium IN |
very large doses. | continued its
use for a month or more. At the |
expiration Of that time the bromide |
of sodium had produced condition |
Of universal depression. with poor
circulation, and progressively in
creasing paralysis in the lower ex-
tremities.
In this horrible condition | Wis |
tied and consulted the medical di- |
rector of the James Sanatorium at
Memphis, Tenn. | found in him not
only a physician who could cure
optimism and alcoholism, but man
who was capable of sympathizing
with and encouraging those who
needed sympathy and encourage
ment most. There were under his
care a number of physicians. They
were from all parts Of the United
States, and were as happy and Jolly
a lot of men as | ever saw. Each
and every man felt and knew he was
being cured, and during my stay at
the Sanatorium ! saw opium, NOR
phine, cocaine, chlOral and whiskey
cases in all stages of treatment cured
and sent home free and happy.
They suffered little or no pain or
inconvenience; slept well, etc.
When | entered the Sanatorium
| weighed 40 pounds, was using
morphia and bromide of sodium,
and was consequently, as stated
above, in a profound state Of brom-
ism and extreme lethargy At the
expiration Of four weeks | was en-
tirely free from the use.
The James Treatment is admin
istered hypodermicallyor internally, |
and is varied to suit the peculiar
condition existing in the different
cases, the amount Of antidOte and !
ehminant used in each case varying
in proportion to the amount of NOR /
phine consumed, also varying to the /
idiosyncracies of the patient. There
is no secret formula. The symp- /
tomato as well as the resultant /
neurasthenic conditions are over
come through scientific application /
Of medicine, measures and hygenic /
methods known to the intelligent /
medical world, aided by static cleo
tricity, electric massage, etc.
1t is now five years since l took |.
treatment and | weigh 185 pounds, /
and having been the recipient Of
such results through the James San
atorium Treatment, and having seen /
number of almost miraculous cures !
accomplished, l feel it my duty as a
physician to make known to the |
profession my experience, that those
who are interested may investigate
for themselves, consequently write
this letter for publication, and viii |
take pleasure in answering inquiries. |
