Overview for The Homoeopathic Treatment of Surgical Diseases
At the time this little book projected. So far as my knowledge extended, there was not one line, outside of our periodical literature, that taught the application of our therapeutic principles to the treatment of so-called "Surgical Diseases." A work on this subject was sorely needed, and our accumulated experience demands a gathering of this scattered material. Having had some years ago, a case to treat, in which a fibroid growth was a prominent symptom, I sought the advice of men gown gray in the service. Heretofore there had been no hesitancy on my part in cutting out such symptoms, supposing them to the diseases in esse. Dr. Guernsey had opened my eyes a little, hence a desire to cure this case, which could not have been done by an operation. One of those to whom I applied for aid, said, "Treat your patient, never mind the tumor," a maxim but half comprehended at the time. Another said, "Cut it out," I knew more myself. A third, "Know nothing about it," just my condition. Being thrown thus upon my own resources, the case was studied, the patient cured, and the tumor disappeared. This case led to further study and experiment. The results of which are found in the following pages.
