HOW TO CURE HEART DISEASE



“Words have failed me in expressing by letter my gratitude for all you have done and have been instrumental in doing for my husbands betterment of health, and when the worst is over I am writing to the journal where I found you name in order to proclaim that years ago you saved the life, or prolonged the life, of on whom the cream of the medical profession had given only six months to live.”.

In october, 1929, Mr. E.C. had been given months to live by best doctors and consultant of Birmingham, who had given to that stout man a milk diet, put him into bed, and dosed him with Digitalis. I dare say with that treatment the forecast might have come true.

Instead of this he has been living for four years and six months. This article is headed “An Unsatisfactory Case” although it may not be disappointing from the point of view of those who thought that the patient would be dead within six months. The case has been extremely disappointing to me because the patient persistently refused to co-operate with me.

He lightly abandoned his diet which had done him so much good, left off his medicines which had saved him, failed to report to me for months and months, rushed about madly, and at last got himself into a condition of extreme gravity. Unfortunately many patients do not realize that it is necessary to be cautious for years and to keep in constant touch with their adviser.
