1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, yes we have the body here: [5240].
3. As we find, there are disturbances which are causing a great deal of anxiety regarding the physical conditions of this body. As a result of the operation on the thyroid, there have been those administrations of thyroid extract which have been very well and, as we find, should be kept up. A grain to a grain and a half daily should be sufficient.
4. Also, there has been, and exists in the present, incoordination between the nerve systems of the body. An over-anxiety, a fear has caused overtension in the nervous system, especially as related to the areas in the upper dorsal or through the brachial centers, and has caused a great shock to the body, so that the ability of the nerves to coordinate in replenishing energies through the circulation has caused this great weakness which exists in the body.
5. These may be materially aided but it will require as much activity of the mental self as those administrations from any mechanical or medicinal natures.
6. Do not use electrical forces for this body. Do use the gentle massage with osteopathic adjustments, especially in the areas indicated, coordinating the lumbar and through the cervical with corrections which are made in the upper dorsal area.
7. Do take regularly, for at least a period of six months before changes are made, grape juice daily, at least four glasses, or prepared in this manner: take three ounces of the grape juice (plain) and add one ounce of plain water (not carbonated water). Take this half an hour before meals

and just before retiring at night.
8. Do keep up the adjustments osteopathically for at least three series of about eight treatments, each series allowing about two weeks rest periods between each series of treatments.
9. If we will do this we will find we will bring better conditions and better control of the energies of body.
10. Do add vitamin B, which may be had for this body in Zyrone. This carries in the compound the vitamins which will be beneficial for the body.
11. Also it would be well to have separate from this, but not too often, wheat germ oil which is prepared by Dohme (?) or Squibbs. One pellet taken about three times each week, but have regular periods for it, see?
12. Ready for questions.
13. (Q) What can I do to strengthen my eyes? (A) As the conditions are corrected in the dorsal areas, we will find this will give a greater strength and vitality for the whole of the sensory system and this will improve the eyes. Head and neck exercises would be very well. Not long series but consistent and regular series of head and neck exercises.
14. (Q) Are the glasses I'm using at present correct? (A) These are very good. They will improve with the treatments. It may necessitate, after the third series of corrections and quieting of the body, that there be changes made. In the regular diets, don't have too much fats, starches; that is, the combinations. White bread should be tabu, as should be white potatoes, macaroni and cheese.
15. (Q) Is there any danger in the growth at the top of my right eyelid? (A) This will not be too disturbing but will later have to be removed.
16. (Q) How should this be removed? (A) Operate, but not until there is better correction in the general system. Use just a little massage each day over the area on the eye with Castor Oil. If the correction is set up it should make for elimination to a great extent, as in segregation, so there will be no disturbance in removing same.
17. (Q) My appendix has given trouble for years, will it adjust its own trouble, if let alone? (A) Don't take a great deal of purgatives, but use Castor Oil Packs over same, not too hot, but use them an hour each day, at least three thicknesses of flannel saturated with Castor Oil and then an electric pad over same. Use this an

hour each day, then after three days take a tablespoonful of Olive Oil internally. Rest about two weeks and then take it again, this time take two tablespoonfuls of the Olive Oil. We should have little or no further trouble. This is not neurotic, though naturally the nerve energies being so upset tends to make this a disturbance for the body.
