COMMENTS - Phatak states: “A nosode prepared from Carcinoma is claimed to act favorably, modifying the cases in which there is a history of carcinoma or the disease itself exists. Can be used as an intercurrent remedy along with indicated.”
This is a good remedy for children, when you have many miasms in the case. A lot of stubborn asthma cases in children, worse from vaccinations respond to Carc. Worms. Cases where nothing is working and you come down and they have cancer in the family, then this is the remedy.
If cancer is on one side or both sides of a family, there may exist a Cancer miasm. That does not mean that the child has a predisposition toward cancer. The children have blue sclera, a blue spot in the whites of their eyes or blue shading in the whites of their eyes. Sometimes that comes normally and goes away.
Foubister studied 200 pregnant women who had cancer and then he studied their children. The children had a tendency to birthmarks. Carcinosin is another one that has deep pigmentations in children. Strawberry angioma. This remedy has been used to prevent keloids.Foubister made an observation that people who lived under severe fear for long periods of time often needed this remedy.
Carcinosin is for sexual abuse and for abusive relationships. This leads to the suppression of emotions. Major symptoms include chronic insomnia and all kinds of phobias. Carcinosin is better or worse by the seashore. Down’s syndrome. There may be a history in a child of severe acute infections, especially whooping cough and pneumonia and the child never totally recovered, their vitality never came back.
This is a major remedy for glandular fever, mononucleosis and chronic fatigue. Carcinosin is better from naps, which is also a keynote of Phosphorus. This is a remedy that looks like many other polycrest remedies. It’s better dancing like Sepia, it has craving of cold drinks like Phosphorus, it has moles, birthmarks and freckles like Thuja, it has the fastidiousness of Arsenicum, it also enjoys thunderstorms like Sepia. Carcinosin is a remedy that antidotes the ill effects of vaccinations.
