1. GC: You will have before you the body of Edgar Cayce, present in this room. You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with special reference to the excruciating pain the body has in the right side, about the region of the liver. You will please give us the cause of this and what should be done to relieve same. Also the nausea and the headache at the base of the brain, and anything else that you find that is wrong with this body at present. Please give this in full, definite manner. You will answer any questions relative to this body that I may ask you.
2. EC: Now, the physical conditions are a great deal different from that as we have had here before. The pain, distress, as is caused in the right side is produced by the strangulation as is given in the gall or bile ducts, in their attempt to function in the normal manner. [Cholecystitis?]
3. The relief for this would be by emptying the gall duct, or bladder, by osteopathic manipulation, or by operation, or by the application of those effects that would give the release sufficient for this to empty itself - and then allow sufficient time in rest and in stimulation for the body to recuperate from these conditions.
4. The pains in head, the nausea, we find produced from the sympathetic reaction of the hypogastric and pneumogastric plexuses in their relation to the condition existing in the organ. And the lack of eliminations in their proper form produces the conditions in tissue throughout the system.
5. This is the condition as we find at the present time, definitely, distinctly.
6. (Q) Which would be the best way to relieve the condition in the gall duct? (A) By emptying same through osteopathic manipulation, if possible; that is, if the body were relaxed sufficiently that same might be emptied through this means. This is the simpler way. Should this produce inflammation, as we have cause to expect unless relaxed sufficiently, it would be necessary to remove the sediment or obstruction causing

strangulation.
7. (Q) Do you find anything else wrong with this body at the present time, any other condition that we should be warned of? (A) Only these at present.
8. We are through.
