what about the other acute drugs which do not find a place in the list? like acon,bapt,ver-v,colo, and many others which we frequently use with success.

dr. pawan did any body ask dr:vijayakar about this during the seminar?

dear dr jaison and dr chandak,

dr vijayakar's acute chart system is good but many points need more clarification. probably we need to get into dr v's thinking to understand his chart.

I would like dr chandak to share his experience with us.

activity= surely, there are some patients who are dull even in high fever but majority show some physical or mental (or both) restlessness, in fever. how do you classify and interpret this as per the chart ? how to clearly differentiate (IN ALL CASES) whether it is physical restlessness or mental.
any insights ?

thermals= in many cases it is not very clear whether the patient is feeling more hot or more chilly. how do you use the chart in these cases?
any experience dr chandak ?

the chart work great when we can accurately choose the thermal-thirst-activity axis in chart terms and get to the remedies. the differentiation comes later - first we got to handle the thermal-thirst-activity axis.
in new version (software) of the chart you will see some remedies listed under both thirsty and also thirstless etc. it's confusing at times.

any input will be deeply appreciated.

regards,
dr manish agarwala

hi dr: manish
I too face the same problem.
I go strictly according to the chart if only I get the features correctly.
I have made a user repertory in hompath software using the features of the chart, i.e:dull,sleepy,anxious,loqacious,hot,chilly,thirs ty,thirstless etc.
that helps me to some extend.

one question I want to ask u. I have seen in some cases that a relapse occures after 4-5 days of full improvement[ improvement was 100%]
why it could be , wrong medicine ??

regards
dr. jaison

I have seen only the demo version of the software [ homoeo acute] and the book. The power point presentation and the video demonstration of the cases in the original CD is lacking in the demo. Are they worth seeing [video & presentation]

Some remedies are given in both thirsty & thirstless sections because it can be presented in both ways, in different patients. Some can be both chilly and hot. See Ph-ac is given as diligent and non diligent too.

I am wondering why there isn’t any one else in the forum to help us.

dear dr jaison,

(reply to your 2 posts)

= the homeoacute software is good.

= well, if you see 100% relapse after 4-5 days (as you state), the person may be needing another dose of the same potency or the next higher potency.
I generally find that a single dose (if the remedy is correct) suffices, in fever cases. I prefer a single dose of 200C.
In some cases 30C worked and there was no need to repeat. sometimes I had to give a 200C after 30C.
I rarely need to give another dose of 200C, when the remedy is correct.
In one case I did have to give 200C - three doses, at 7/8 days interval.

no fixed rules, you see.

again, sometimes it is difficult to be 100% sure, beforehand that the remedy is 100% similimum !

again, 100% relapse in 4-5 days may be due to the wrong / partial remedy.

= why are others not bothered with homeo acute (dr V's system) like us....
well..well... duniya main gam aur bhi hain. sab apne apne me mashroof..
hamara gam unko bhi ho yeh jaroori nahin !

dr manish agarwala

thank u dr. manish.

hope one day we will be expert in using the chart.
As u said repeating or going to higher potency solves the problem.

Are the movie files & power point presentation in the software good?

regards
dr.jaison

The Organon teaches that there are three forms of acute crisis (§73). These are the acute indisposition, the acute miasm, and the acute-like acerbation of a chronic miasm. The first type of acute diseases are those that attack individually. They are usually brought on by an exciting causes such as stress and strain, overheating, being chilled, over eating or bad food, strong physical and mental impressions, etc. They are usually acute acerbations of the chronic miasms stimulated into activity by by a strong exciting cause. If such crisis is slight the best treatment is simple rest, appropriate diet and nursing. When an acute disorder is strong it will repress the chronic symptoms and display a new symptom image. Under these circumstances the intercurrent remedy is the remedy of choice. After the crisis has subsided complementary constitutional treatment is needed to remove the underlying cause.
The second type of acute disease attack individuals sporadically They are caused by atmospheric, meteoric and telluric influences, unseasonable weather, and the like. These are true acute indispositions, and if severe, should be treated with acute remedies as they are prone to complications. These diseases form acute layers which repress the constitutional picture until they have run their course or are removed by homoeopathic remedies. Constitutional and anti miasmic treatment helps the individual to become more resistant to these natural causes.
The third type of acute diseases are the acute miasms. They are caused by microorganisms which are self-limiting but tend to form quick crisis and end with either complications, death or convalescence. They are of two types; those that provide immunity after one attack like measles, mumps, chicken pox, and those which reoccur like viral flu and colds, cholera, typhoid, etc. They should be treated with remedies which reflect the picture of the acute miasms only. Follow up treatment with constitutional and anti miasmic remedies helps supply immunity by removing the underlying susceptibility.
