Summary

Röntgen's discovery of X ray in 1895 revolutionized medicine and other fields, leading to the widespread use of X-rays for medical imaging and industrial applications. Our world has changed drastically since. Our ancestors used telepathy, drumming, smoke signals, and storytelling to convey messages, while modern communication utilizes advanced technologies like holographic projections that require 5G technology. Our air-space is full of electric and magnetic fields (EMFs), often referred to as ‘radiation’. Human exposure to man-made Electromagnetic waves or Fields (EMF or EMW) has increased to unprecedented levels, accompanied by an increase in various health problems. Every house and work place has 4G or 5G emitting wi-fi equipment. Every human carries a mobile device as if it were an extension of them and sleeps with it besides them. Case 1 demonstrates how Boericke’s therapeutic advice written in 1901 is applicable even in the 21st century. Case 2 is about new remedies for maladies caused by present day technological advances.

Case 1: June 2018 -Congenital deafness in an infant of 2 months, born with Treacher Collins syndrome

Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS) is a rare genetic disorder of facial dysmorphism that affects structures of the first and second pharyngeal arches. More than half the time it occurs because of a new mutation rather than being inherited. Patients have normal intelligence, but often face social challenges throughout life because of their physical appearance. The hearing loss (1) in Treacher Collins syndrome is usually bilateral (meaning that both ears are affected) and, while it is not severe enough to be termed “deafness,” it is severe enough to affect the ability to hear the human voice.

Prescriptive Verbatim History: Mother’s history during Pregnancy

I had PCOS and have irregular menses. My last menses was on 22.01.2017 with regular flow. My mother-in-law fell sick with kidney disease around January 2017. My husband has a lot of affection for his mother and expected me to accompany her every time she visited the doctors. I am working too, so I had to take leave from work and accompany her to the doctor for blood tests, X rays, CT scans, dietitian, nephrologist etc. It was tiring. I would do everything I could but then in my absence she would eat everything that is prohibited and get worse. Her creatinine kept rising.

But the funny part of this pregnancy is that till around 24 weeks I did not realise that I was pregnant. Life was so hectic because of my mother in law’s illness that I did not notice that I was pregnant. Neither did my husband notice it either. I thought I had bloating until my friends insisted that I see a gynaecologist. One day when I was relaxed, I felt something moving and doubted if I was pregnant. I visited my gynaecologist & obstetrician and he confirmed that I was pregnant. I had hip pains, piles, and fissure bleeding thereafter. In November 2017 I was diagnosed with hydramnios. The scan showed fetal hands and legs were short and did not correspond to the gestational age. He was born in the last week of November 2017. When he was born his hands and feet were normal. He was healthy except that he is diagnosed with Treacher syndrome.

We visited the genetic clinic at KEM hospital and they examined him. There were no complaints except this congenital hearing defect on examination. He also has very noisy breathing. He is breast feeding well and pooping well and apparently, he is good. His heart is working well. But his facial bones are distorted so he looks different and abnormal. We have been advised by genetic clinic to do X ray for his whole spine, cranio-facial and neck CT scan with 3-D reconstruction, geneticist follow ups regularly and surgery for face reconstruction.

Q: Any family history of congenital disease?

None in my family nor my husband's family.

Q: Did you accompany your mother in law in the CT scan room before you realised you were pregnant?

Yes I did. I went with her everywhere.

Q: Did you accompany her in the CT room while she was being scanned?

Yes I was inside for sometime as she was afraid and refused to be alone. She was worse than a child so I was allowed to be inside.

Q: Did you wear an apron?

No apron was provided. I came out after the doctor objected to my presence. Why are you asking me this?

Finding the Indicated Medicine

Indications

Gene mutation in fetus/ patient
Invisible pregnancy
Exposure to X rays in 1st trimester to the fetus
Teratogenic effects seen
No family history of hereditary illness

A single chest CT scan, can expose a person to the equivalent radiation of 100 to 800 chest X-rays. The radiation ( x-ray) exposure of this baby during early fetal life could have contributed to the congenital anomaly. There is scientific disagreement (2) about whether the small amounts of radiation used in diagnostic radiology can harm the unborn child, but it is known that the unborn child is very sensitive to the effects of things like radiation, certain drugs, excess alcohol, and infection. This is true, in part, because the cells are rapidly dividing and growing into specialized cells and tissues. Ionizing radiation (3) from CT may result in teratogenic effects to the fetus at high doses up to 15 weeks post conception.

X-ray exposure can cause gene mutations in a growing fetus, particularly during early pregnancy when cells are rapidly dividing and organ development is most sensitive to radiation.

X-rays cause mutations and when dynamized they can be a cure for mutation effects - Law of Similars.

We can enumerate several human inventions that are justified and promoted on one premise that ‘risk outweighs benefit.’ The latest has been the EUA Covid -19 vaccines.

Advice to parents

No wireless baby monitors
Switch off wi-fi when not needed
No mobile phones to be used near the baby
Avoid further exposure to radiation

Prescription

At 2 months of Age: X-ray 200 C, 1 pill every weekend for 1 month and Placebo for 4 months. The BERA test done at 6 months shows moderate to moderately severe hearing impairment in both ears with middle ear pathology

At 6 months of age: X-ray 200, 1 pill was repeated. At 8 months the baby had near normal responses of hearing when the mother checked him clinically as she was an audiologist. The boy developed colds and fever that did not rise above 100F. It was the rainy season, he was prescribed Dulcamara 200 C as an acute.

At 10 months: The boy developed frank measles with 102 F fever. He was not prescribed any medicine except cold sponges, hot soups as he was playful despite high fever. The fever settled in 48 hours and the eruptions in 5-6 days.

At 18 months: His milestones were normal. Audiogram was repeated and the results showed bilateral mild conductive loss. He developed mild eczema on his skin behind the knees and in the elbow folds. X-ray 1000 C, 1 pill was repeated. In 2 months, the skin cleared.

He was admitted to play school and he adjusted well and other kids adjusted well to him too. His hearing got better clinically. He started going to school and has grown to be an intelligent, active, and joyful child. The boy has no other ailments.

At 5 years 4 months: Audiogram results showed bilateral hearing responses within normal limits. The parents continue the child’s health management through homoeopathy alone.

Note on X-Ray

William Boericke writes under medicine X-ray: “Repeated exposure to Roentgen (X-ray) has produced skin lesions often followed by cancer. Distressing pain. Sexual glands are particularly affected. Atrophy of ovaries and testicles. Sterility. Changes take place in the blood lymphatics and bone marrow. Anæmia and leukæmia. Corresponds to stubbornness as in burns, they refuse to heal. Psoriasis”.

There are several dynamized drugs that can help heal diseases caused by X-ray radiations depending on symptom similarity ( source: Complete Dynamics Repertory).

Case 2: August 2021 – Audiogram - Mixed Hearing Loss in left ear, Vertigo episodes, Male 27 years studying M.B.A

Prescriptive Verbatim History

Q: When did you first notice this hearing problem?

“I was on my cell phone with my friend and understanding lessons on economics and for the first time I felt a break between hearing. I felt as if the voice was coming from a wall. I felt as if there was a layer in my ears and the voice had to pass through it. The voice would get faint and clear again. First, I thought it was a bad quality of earphones. I have 6 hours of online classes, plus 2 hours of meetings and another 2 hours of miscellaneous work. At night I chat with my girlfriend who is in Calcutta. Could it be this online working? But my eyes are great, no increase in the spectacle numbers! I do get vertigo on sudden movement of my eyes.

Q: Describe yourself?

Emotional by nature, not expressive and that is by choice. Now I cannot express myself even if I want to. I love sports and cricket. I practise daily mornings at the grounds. I am a left-hand spinner. I am in the college cricket team and play at national level.

I do not want to do anything mediocre. I cannot take the risk of failing, criticism. I want to do something different, something that is impactful, something that disrupts the stereotype. I want to do something that no one has done to date. I am diligent and sincere. I pay attention to details. I can be obsessive sometimes. I am okay with a low salary but I want a job that is creating an impact.

I am already 27 and everyone in the community is commenting that he is still not earning, he has no job. They discuss this in front of my parents. I feel angry and feel he is labelling me a loser. I feel I am not good according to standards set by my community. After lockdown I have become sensitive to incense, perfume smells and colours in cakes and foods. After Covid I get acidity. I love eating chicken, eggs & fish. Only I am a non-vegetarian in my family & my community.

Prescription

August 2021: Silicea 30 C – 2 pills 2 hourly for 3 days & report after 1 month.

Follow up: There was no change in the wall like sensation in the ears. Vertigo persisted. Additionally, he developed a new symptom - a ‘beeping’ sound in the ears at bedtime when it is quiet. It lasts till morning and disappears by morning when it is noisy. Emotionally he felt better in the way he felt with his community people. The other symptom that changed was the sweating of his palms when he would tense-up while bowling. Silicea did work on his constitution but the ear disease progressed.

I examined the case with a different viewpoint:

Ailments from: Mobile radiation
Ears - hearing loss

I arrived at dynamized Mobile radiation as the indicated medicine for him. An imponderable medicine for maladies caused by imponderable waves! He was asked to also do the following:

Switch off wi-fi when not working
Use speaker phone instead of blue tooth whenever possible
Not to sleep with his mobile phone near his body

September 2021: Mobile Radiation (4) 30 C – 1 pill daily for 1 month and Placebo for 4 months.

January 2022: He reported there was no tinnitus (the beeping sound) at all. No episodes of vertigo. The wall sensation would be felt sometimes and sometimes the hearing was as if nearly clear. I repeated Mobile radiation 30 C ( the only potency available to me) – 1 pill daily for 15 days with placebo for 4 months.

May 2022: A repeat Audiogram showed both ears hearing sensitivity within normal limits.

He was advised to discern in the use of his mobile phone, wi-fi, and gadgets and observe ‘radiation rationing’ regularly.

Repeat Audiogram in May 2023 showed both ears hearing sensitivity within normal limits.

Recognizing Imponderables as Simillimum

Dynamized X-ray, dynamized Mobile Radiation and dynamized EMF are Imponderables. Imponderable (adj.) (5) means, "weightless". When any substance is potentized into a medicine according to principles of homeopathy, they become imponderables. But Imponderables are a group of remedies that are potentized from a dynamically, immaterial energetic source from the world.

Old Remedies: X-ray, Radium bromatum (Radium bromide), Electricitas (electricity), Sol (sunlight) and Luna (moonlight), Magnetis poli ambo (magnet), Magnetis polus arcticus (North pole of magnet), Magnetis polus australis (South pole of magnet), P.C. Remedies
New Remedies: EMF, 5G, LED (Light Emitting Diode by Chetna Shukla), Planetary emission remedies (by Deborah Noah, USA & Olga Fatula Russia), Tempesta

It is a tricky task for any homeopath to identify and recognize imponderables as the Simillimum in a case of disease. This is because the Simillimum remains invisible or imperceptible like its essential nature. The cases that require imponderable as a medicine can have the following criteria:

Invisible or Imperceptible: Cause- effect relationship is imperceptible or invisible- Not seen, felt, smelled, or tasted. The indicated remedy appears invisible to the searching mind of the homeopath.

Source Connect: Individuals requiring an imponderable as their Simillimum most often than always express a strong affinity (aggravation or ailments from, occasionally amelioration) towards that imponderable
Ailments from: There is in the history either -Ailments from/ after use of Man-made gadgets or man-made technology (Incubator at birth, Living near Cell tower, Blue tooth devices, 5G, Living close to Cell towers, Mobile use, Microwave cooking etc.)
Affection of Nervous system and nerves: EMF affects autonomic nervous system (affecting heart), special senses especially vision and hearing. The hippocampus, a brain region crucial for memory and learning, is particularly vulnerable to EMF effects.
History of: Living near a cell tower, using I-pods, sleeping with mobile devices.

EMFs are the leading cause of dozens of modern-day diseases. They boost brain cancer risks, diminish human fertility, and increase Alzheimer's symptoms. But good news is, there is a simple way to protect yourself from EMFs without having to get rid of all your technological devices.

Anti EMF- Natural Remedies for Man-made Maladies

Lead – Lead apron is effective at stopping gamma rays and X-rays.
Faraday bags block RF signals from both being sent and received to an electronic device such as a mobile phone, car key or laptop. They can be made up of multiple layers of various metallic layers - copper, aluminum and static dissipative polyethylene.
Electromagnetic shielding is the process of lowering the electromagnetic field in an area by barricading it with conductive or magnetic material. Copper is used for radio frequency (RF) shielding because it absorbs radio and other electromagnetic waves. Properly designed and constructed RF shielding enclosures satisfy most RF shielding needs, from computer and electrical switching rooms to hospital CAT scan and MRI facilities.
Aluminum foil, and other electrically conductive metals such as copper, can reflect, and absorb the radio waves and consequently interferes with their transmission
Curcumin (6) (of turmeric) - best known anti-inflammatory & antioxidant herbs. Study shows that curcumin’s anti-inflammatory properties does indeed protect against EMF damage, while this animal study shows that curcumin exerts a protective effect upon the rats’ brains after EMF exposure.
Green tea (7) is an antioxidant. Animal Study looked at green tea’s ability to prevent neuron cell death after exposure to radiation from cell phone exposure, and it was demonstrated to have protective effects. One study looked at green tea’s effects upon damage from exposure to EMF from high voltage power lines. Oxidative stress in the study group was considerably less.
While EMF exposure tends to lower androgens in male rats, Rosemary (8) offers protective effects particularly against damage to the testes. This is particularly interesting, given the data suggesting that EMF is especially damaging to sperm, and global sperm counts are on a dramatic decline. Rosemary offers protection against EMF-induced liver damage in rats as well.
Ginkgo biloba (9) extract (EGb 761), when pre-treated on human blood cells before exposure to 1.8 GHz radiation, significantly reduced cell damage. The extract's antioxidants and flavonoids not only protected the cells but also helped restore the brain's natural defense systems against radiation-induced damage.
Shungite crystal (10) - Shielding effect of mineral Shungite during electromagnetic irradiation of rats (11)- Shielding decreased the severity of damage produced by high-frequency electromagnetic radiation. Shungite proving was conducted by me in 2023 along with a group of dedicated homeopaths.

Biography

Chetna N. Shukla is a well-known Indian Homeopath with over 30 years of experience. Evidence-based homeopathy has been her path. In her practice she works with healthy attributes of the sick to increase the Curability Quotient to achieve the highest ideal of cure. “Provings” as a means to recognize the deep qualities of the source has been her forte. She has conducted 33 provings. The idea of using a proving not only to get to know the substance but also primarily to bring about a change in the collective, is new in homeopathy, and this global proving is the first of its kind. She has done the collating of Global Provings by Harry van der Zee - Himalayan salt, Natural Silver and Terra Indiana. And she has conducted her own international provings of Aqua terra (320 waters of the world), Shungite, Meteorite and Human IgG. Some of her remarkable provings are that of Rosa damask, Graphium agamemnon, Ayahuasca, Hippocampus kuda, Pavo cristatus, Rudraksha, Cedar, Sars Covid Nosode. Many of her provings have been published in Czech, English and German and are also available in Synthesis Repertory. Individualized diet: Food Similia is one of the many books written by her. It is about utilizing ‘food relationship’ as a tool to arrive at the simillimum and prescribing a diet in alignment to the simillimum to assist the Vital force in the process of cure.
