When you understand the difference between acute and chronic disease (the absence of ease), for anyone - you, a cat, a dog, a horse, a bird, a cow - then you are in a much more powerful position to get the right kind of help.

First let’s look at some examples of each.

An acute dis-ease is one which is short lasting and will go on its own. It may be a bit uncomfortable while it lasts, but it will resolve itself. In those with an extremely poorly functioning immune system, and an extremely bad acute disease, it could also carry them off.

Examples of acute dis-eases include any inflammation from a bacterial or fungal origin. The cause of the inflammation could be from a bite, an injury, a burn, the flu. Other acute problems include a stomach problem, food poisoning, a fever, a headache.

You can probably appreciate that these problems are everyday ailments people suffer with regularly. A day of rest in bed can often sort the problem out.

However, when the situation is serious, when your immune system is not functioning well, then they can be fatal without any help.

This is the area that the medical profession can help with reasonably well. Their methods may cause other problems, but they can save lives.

This is also an area that you can learn, quite easily, to treat effectively and holistically.

Then there are the chronic ailments. Chronic dis-eases or ailments mean the problem will stay with you for life if you do nothing different or if you rely on mainstream medicine as your only source of help.

These include the organs - liver, kidney, heart, pancreas, etc - the immune system (including auto-immune conditions), diabetes, the whole digestive system, rheumatism, arthritis, the lymphatic system, the nervous system, anything that is systemic: ie involves the whole system.

Then there are the semi-chronic ailments which come and go. These might include menstrual problems, annual colds and flus, seasonal allergies, recurring problems.

It’s these chronic dis-eases or ailments that mainstream medicine has such a poor ability, and track record, to treat effectively.

And it’s these same chronic dis-eases that tend to get people searching for answers outside of mainstream medicine.

Before seeking help for a chronic dis-ease, there are a few things that you need to know.

Chronic dis-ease takes time to develop - often years. This means it will take time to resolve. Don’t fall for the mistake that a single consultation will resolve the problem. It won’t, whoever, whatever treatment you seek out.

So whoever you consult, it’s best to have a good working relationship with them. You’ll be with them a while.

Chronic dis-ease is very often caused by or exacerbated by environmental issues. These include your diet, your health care to date, your living conditions, your relationships. It has much less to do with your genetics than your environment.

This means the chances of you making a full recovery is extremely good. BUT… To achieve that, you will have to make some changes.

Don’t think that all you will have to do is to pop a few pills and bingo, bob’s your uncle.

Life is all about growth. When things go wrong, it’s a cue to think about healthy and workable solutions. Ignore them at your peril!

Homeopathic treatment is as good at helping you through an acute dis-ease or ailment quickly as it is at helping you to fully heal from a chronic dis-ease.

Appreciate and know the difference between acute and chronic disease. Appreciate and learn the causative factors. Appreciate that healing a chronic dis-ease takes time, whoever the patient is. You do not need to suffer just because mainstream medicine can’t help.
