Dear Ben,
Thank you for sharing those experiences, particularly about the return of function prior to much tissue repair. Your findings are both interesting and helpful. I do realise that you are talking about an individual case/s, but I am just trying to see what might be possible, in cases of gross pathology, through some of the curative results experienced by other practitioners.
I agree entirely about the avoidance of surgery. I am considering a case in which the patient has already had one nephrectomy, has extensive atrophy of the second kidney and is on dialysis(although she is not on heavy medication).
I know that Kent and others talk about cases in which remedies cure the person, but the physical pathology remains beyond restoration/regeneration. I have seen cases myself, for example, in which a patient can be taken back to a psoric state, without any improvement to their baldness, because their hair follicles have actually died-off. My colleagues and I have also observed a lack of regeneration in tooth enamel and in diabetes in which pancreatic function has almost ceased.
I think it is important to be able to share experiences on some of these difficult areas in a constructive forum. Many thanks for your contribution.
