your are not going to like this ' Brucellosis' - do you have it?

[Guest guest]

Found out about this from a friend who has had a lot of homeopathic treatment.

About half of the description describes my son. Problem is the other half does

not.

Would like some opinions from others who read it/know about this disease (any

sheep farmers out there?)

there is a problem with practitioners who have a " hammer " and see everything as

a " nail " but there are too many coincidences for my boy in this article. fevers,

yellow skin, red around edges of hand, loose stools, lethargy, pain, hand foot

mouth disease, rotting teeth, etc etc

see what you think

Brucella Abortus Bang

Its Relationship to Other Diseases

By A. J. Lindeman

INTRODUCTION

Brucellosis is a bacterial infection which often has a recidivation in the form

of chronic fever in humans. It is contracted by means of contact with an

infected animal or via consumption of dairy products and/or meat. From the

historical point of view we have learnt that the Brucellosis infection has been

found in man for many centuries, particularly in the areas of the Mediterranean

and the near Middle East.

Until 1861 there was never a difference in the identity of the illness. MARSTON

was the first to detail Brucellosis and gave it the name Mediterranean Fever or

Gastric Intermittent Fever. Other synonyms for this illness are: Undulant fever;

Mediterranean fever; Gastric fever; Malta fever; Rock fever; Gibraltar fever;

Melitoccie Goat fever; Texas fever; Rio Grande fever; Brucella fever; Bang's

fever.

Brucellus Abortus (Bang) was first isolated and described as a bacillus by Bang

in conjunction with Stribolt in 1897. They took the organism from the foetus and

the foetal membrane of cows that had aborted, and isolated these organisms.

Later it was determined that the cause was from the infected abortion of the

cow. The illness is now known as the " Illness of Bang " or " Bang's Disease " in

animals, and " Brucella Abortus Bang " in humans. In all animals that chew cud and

in pigs this illness causes natural abortions and is transferable to man.

ETIOLOGY

Brucella abortus: (9 biotypes) is to be found in cattle and is dispersed world

wide. Cattle may be infected by Brucella Suis or Brucella Melitensis.

Brucella melitensis: (3 biotypes) is to be found in sheep and goats and is

enzootic (present in an animal community at all times), but occurring in only

small numbers of cases--a disease of low morbidity which is constantly present

in an animal community in lands around the Mediterranean, South East Russia,

Mongolia, the Middle East and Latin America. Sheep and goats may also be

infected by Brucella Suis and Brucella Abortus.

Brucella suis: (4 biotypes) is to be found in pigs and is enzootic in Latin

America, sporadically in Europe, Asia, Africa and Oceania. Pigs may be infected

by Brucella Abortus.

Brucella neotoma is to be found in rats in the deserts of West America.

Brucella ovis is found in sheep, and is spread over all areas where sheep are

bred. Epididymitis in sheep is caused by Brucella Ovis.

Brucella canis is found in cats and dogs and has been bacterially located in

America, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Czechoslovakia, Germany, Japan and

Madagascar. Dogs and cats may also be infected by Brucella Suis, Brucella

Abortus, and Brucella Melitensis.

Symptoms and Pathology

Brucella Abortus Bang often has a devious beginning with a slight fever and

malaise, severe headaches, " stomach " ache, constipation, anorexia and

arthralgia. Sometimes there is talk of an acute beginning with a severe or high

fever. With physical inspection we often find enlarged lymph glands and a

palpable spleen.

Sometimes there are no deviations. The duration of this first phase is sometimes

short or it can last weeks or even months. In some patients this illness can be

endured for longer than a year. They display a picture of general malaise, of

being ill with tiredness, anorexia, psychalgia, and sometimes fever.

HUGHES differentiated Brucellosis into three main types: a. Malignant, b.

Undulant, c. Changeable. He also recognized an ambulant type and an irregular

mixed and chronic type.

A. The Malignant Type Infections of this type as a result of Brucella Abortus or

Brucella Suis seldom occur. They are recognised by a sudden onset of acute

duration and is often fatal. In most cases the temperature is high and does not

abate and has an extreme hyperpyrexia prior to death. Exhaustion, severe

headache and backache, anorexia, constipation and stiffness is noticeable. At

some stage a state of delirium and coma may occur. Perspiration is not

excessive. The spleen will certainly be enlarged.

B. The Undulant Type The most noticeable characteristic of this type is the

appearance of the recidivation. If short intermittent periods of the apyrexia

occur it creates the impression of a wave-like temperature. In the beginning

people complain of tiredness, general pain, headaches and anorexia….. Sometimes

this is confused with an influenza attack. The people are hardly over the one

attack when it begins a new. By the second attack the symptoms have often

intensified. Constipation and sleeplessness also occur. In the early stage

nightly sweats can occur but it is more visible in later developmental phases.

Characteristically the temperature rises daily until the maximum is reached.

This development then declines in intensity and length of duration.

C. The Changeable Type The beginning phase is deceptive. The patient feels

progressively tired in the early afternoon. General pain, headaches, no desire

to eat, becoming cold in the late afternoon, and sleeplessness occurs

frequently. A fever is often suspected. Backache, stiffness, and pain in the

neck and joints, constipation and weight loss are also symptoms. With some

patients there is also a dry cough and severe nightly sweats. Physical

inspection shows no abnormalities except symptoms of anaemia, weakness,

anorexia, palpable spleen and a sensitive intestinal area.

D. Ambulant Type The duration of the illness is short and mild. In the beginning

it is deceptive and the-only constant symptoms are tiredness and a loss of

energy.

E. The Irregular, Mixed And Chronic Type When diagnosing Brucella we must always

bear in mind Atypical forms. These infections can imitate other symptoms. The

chronic form of this illness can display the following clinical manifestations:

A wandering form of typhus-like fever; Tuberculosis; Bronchopneumonia;

Meningitis; Cystitis; Rheumatism; Appendicitis; Orchitis; Gonorrhoeal

Epididymitis.

Chronic cases can display neither any symptoms nor any signs of this illness.

During the first months of the illness the patient may complain of tiredness and

pain in the back of the head. Pain in the joints and back often occur. Many of

the patients tell of vague forms of gastritis and a pain in the right lower

abdomen which looks like chronic appendicitis. Sometimes in the evening there is

a rise in the temperature. Some patients develop neurological symptoms e.g.

depressions, are easily angered, crying without a reason, sleeplessness and

tremors. It sometimes occurs that the patient suffers from a temporary loss of

memory, speech defects, photophobia and a loss of feeling in the fingers, toes,

arms and legs. The chronic form of this illness can form a purely focal

infection. The focus may be found in the tonsils, roots of the teeth, the gall

bladder, bones, lymph glands, joints or genitals. More and more evidence shows

that people immune to Brucellosis show an allergic reaction which is often

confused with a chronic Brucellosis.

Brucellosis In Children

SANDER studied 26 children suffering from this disease, and concluded that the

constant symptoms were: slowness, tiredness, weakness, and anorexia. The

constant signs were: Fever, perspiration, weight loss, dizziness, billiousness

and vomiting, headache, general joint pains and diarrhoea. One of the children

suffered from cold shivers and fever so frequently that a previous diagnosis was

malaria. Not one of these patients was really ill and even during the periods of

extremely high fever could one describe them as being clinically unwell. The

most frequent symptoms are:

1. Weakness in the form of tiredness.

2. Perspiration-varies a lot in length of duration from short to long ...

particularly after midnight and can be mild or severe.

3. Cold shivers.

4. Pain: Sometimes becoming more pronounced with exercise and movement and can

be confused with influenza, stiff neck and shoulders, arthralgia, pains in the

abdomen (sometimes with cramps) but in general the pains are definite and severe

and sometimes last a long while but to locate the exact point of pain is very

difficult. Sometimes it is found in the regions of the ovaria, epigastrium and

appendix. This symptom has the danger that it can lead to an operation that it

is not necessary.

5. Gastro-intestinal problems: Anorexia, billiousness and vomiting, and

constipation are part and parcel of the intensity of the infection. 6.

Respiratory Symptoms: Acute symptoms of the upper respiratory area appear at the

beginning of the infection, dry cough, pharyngeal irritation, bronchopneumonia,

miliary tuberculosis, pulmonary abscesses, and tonsillitis.

7. Neuropsychiatric symptoms: Marked by depression, tendency to sleepiness and

intoxication, loss of memory, over sensitivity, crying without a reason,

uncertain, shy, childish manner, shaking and tremors so that the patient cannot

write or bring a cup to the lips without messing, unwilling to talk, aphonia,

temporary loss of movement in the arms and legs.

8. Uro-genital: Cystitis, pyelitis, burning feeling when urinating.

9. Cardiovascular: Palpitations, irritated heart, dizziness, and other

cardiovascular symptoms have an influence on complications.

10. Loss of weight: Progressive weight loss--anorexia.

Localized Brucella Infections

Meningeoencephalitis; Arthritis; Arthritis Deformans; Spondylitis;

Tenosynovitis; Meningitis; Orchitis; Abscess of the spleen and/or liver; Lymph

nodes and other soft tissue; The fertile uterus may also be affected; Conditions

of the epididymis, testis and/or the vesicle seminals; Endocarditis;

Pericarditis; Aneurysma Mycoticum; Choleocystitis, Pleuritis, Cervical adenitis,

Cervical Syndrome (this is true in almost every Brucellosis infection) Morbus

Hodgkin; Cystitis; Renal tuberculosis; Mastitis; Endometritis and abortuses; Eye

lesions e.g. iridocyclitis and chorioretinitis; Epidermal rashes and infections;

Intestinal infections; Hemochromatosis; Rheumatism particularly in the finger

joints; Scarring of the lungs.

It is important to note that people who have been vaccinated for cholera

sometimes have a positive reaction to Brucellosis. (The vaccine is often

cultured in cattle and unless care is taken by the veterinarian, this could be a

Brucellosis infected cow used as a culture base). Brucella Abortus Bang may be

confused with Salmonella, Malaria and Mononucleosis infections.

Transmission

The natural reservoirs of Brucella Abortus, Brucella Suis and Brucella

Melitensis are cattle, swine (pigs), sheep and goats. The natural host of

Brucella Canis is the clog and the cat, and that of Brucella Ovis is the sheep.

Thus we can safely say the bacterium needs a host on which to survive be it

animal or human. It is not uncommon to find the sheep variety in cattle,

especially where mixed farming is practised, or where stock is bought from such

mixed farming.

A person is infected by contact with the animals or direct or indirect contact

with the use of animal products e.g. fresh cheese, milk or meat. Brucella

organisms are often killed in sour milk, sour cream, butter and fermented cheese

which is more than three months old, but there is no guarantee. Brucella Abortus

is also found in the areas of the North Pole as a result of the eating of bone

marrow and raw meat of the reindeer and caribou which have been infected with

Brucella Suis biotype 4. The organism is resistant to pickling and smoking and

thus can be transferred to humans very easily. It is also possible that raw

green vegetables and water may be infected by animal faeces or urine. This is a

source of the infection, or where " organic farming " is practised, and the soil

is fertilized using fresh dung or dung that has not been well rotted for several

years. (A common fault in Organic Farming in the U.K.).

Human Brucellosis (Brucella Abortus Bang) is mostly the result of direct contact

with the foetas and foetal membranes, and/or the afterbirth of the calf, or with

contact of vaginal secretions of the cow, faeces or carcasses of any infected

animal. The organism enters humans via skin damage or via the mucous membranes

including the conjunctiva. There are cases in which the Brucellosis has been

transmitted via the breathing in of Brucellosis in aerosol form in an abattoir

or laboratory. Humans are also susceptible to the Brucella Canis infection. Many

of these cases are to be found amongst laboratory workers, kennel owners where

the breeding of dogs takes place, and in an infected dog as a pet.

A thing of much importance is that it is transferable via the sperm to the woman

who when she falls pregnant is able to transfer this to the foetus. (We have

proven up to 3 generations of transmission.) Brucella is able to reach all

organs in the body because it is transmitted via the blood. It is a possible

cause of many menstruation problems e.g. heavy menstruation, dysmenorrhea,

amenorrhea, and even spontaneous abortions. (today we even do not rule out

Brucellosis as a cause of Fibromas and Myoma of the Uterus). Worst of all we

have now proven conclusively that Brucellosis is the vector for other infections

such as Tuberculosis and at least 4 types of Mycoplasma infections.

Brucella melitense

It attacks various parts of the body. If it manifests itself in the skin, it

makes little medallions raised on the skin which are very red and constantly

peeling. It also manifests itself in the spleen, liver, and pancreas, and in

particular in the large intestine. It is quite common, and is carried by goats

and sheep. It is one of the causes of a hereditary disease called

Hemochromatosis, where the liver starts to receive very large quantities of iron

from the intestines, and usually leads to liver cirrhosis, and eventually even

to cancer. This particular disease of Brucella Melitense is often overlooked as

it is very subtle, but it always attacks the intestines and is more common than

we are led to believe. It is usually carried over to the next three generations;

and in these subsequent generations it is difficult to discover the bacterial

infection. It is also possible to have both Brucella Abortus Bang as well as

Brucella Melitense if, for example, the infection started in a cow which had

both diseases. This is not common but in the various case histories I will prove

both diseases in one patient.

Where does it all come from? I record this section which follows merely as

background knowledge for my studies:- At the end of the Second World War,

Holland was liberated in the southern provinces by the American troops who had

goat mascots with them. These goats were carriers of Brucellosis. The U.S.A.

troops carried truckloads of food for these mascots with them, as Europe was

devastated by the war. The goats were housed in the near empty stables of the

Dutch farmers, who were given food for the mascots in plentiful supply. Much was

used immediately on their own starving stock. The droppings of the goats were

spread on the land to fertilise the soil. In the Provinces of Limburg and

Brabant this was the order of the day. Little wild rabbits came to eat of these

droppings. They were a very rich source of food which was already partially

digested. Thus the entire wild rabbit population became carriers of Brucellosis.

In turn the people in these provinces trapped the rabbits and ate them, and

entire families became ill. Some died. A11 this is recorded in the medical

annals of Holland in a book called the Codex Medicus. This in an official diary

of the medical history of Holland.

In those years Holland possessed a blood type culture system to detect the

bacteria. It was a special device (that looked like an oven) in which blood was

cultured for 19 days, at the blood temperature of the patient. It required a 24

hours a day monitoring system, using three shifts of personnel. One culture was

costing the National Health DFL 2000 per culture. The average tradesman's salary

was only DFL 75 per week (this was back in 1945 47). There was no cure for the

disease.

When there is an outbreak of Brucellosis, the Ministry of Health must be

notified who in turn must notify the World Health Organisation, and then the

government is obliged to stop all exports of dairy produce, bovine sperm, etc.

In 1947, only two years after thousands of people had died in Holland of

Brucellosis, the Dutch government made it known that it had stamped out Brucella

Abortus Bang and that the milk was of such high quality that regular testing had

become obsolete. The equipment was destroyed, and no further blood tests

cultures for this disease have been done since.

This is not the end of it. In 1990 Holland destroyed more than 1,130 cows for

suspected Brucellosis; in 1991, more than 3,000 cows were destroyed, and in

1992, over a thousand were destroyed. You find the occasional newspaper article

announcing the destruction of the cows and stables, followed by an immediate

announcement from the Ministry of Health saying that it is all routine and that

the infection has presented no threat to the human population. In the very next

sentence it is stated that the meat is to be destroyed, and may not be eaten.

The latest notice in the newspaper I have is 19/8/95 in the " Telegraaf " , a

nation wide newspaper in Holland, where the State Veterinarians had noticed this

disease at various farms in the Barchem area (Eastern Holland). The article did

not reveal how many cows the state destroyed at this juncture.

However, in 1990 it was published by the State Health department in Holland that

eating the meat of the Brucellosis infected cattle was not dangerous. It has

become a standard joke amongst the population in that every time they find an

outbreak of Brucellosis, the state veterinarians blame it on the Belgians

allowing their cattle to stray over our borders or selling their diseased cattle

to the Dutch farmers. Likewise the population is always bemused by the state's

hastily added announcement stating that this outbreak has not in any way placed

at risk the population who might have been in contact with these cattle or eaten

the meat or other products from these cows. From my story you can deduce so far

that:

a) There is no possibility to diagnose Brucellosis, from whichever cause, unless

by process of elimination. (In the conventional medical world it can only be

cultivated at enormous costs, and at the end of it there is no specific

medicine.) Homeopathy offers the only remedy in this case.

Brucellosis has more than 50 different symptoms, and it can be carried over

from mother to unborn child. In fact we know empirically that it is carried over

up to 3 generations.

c) The conventional medical world has tried to hide true facts about this

bacteria as have various governments for political reasons.

d) In Holland some 16% of the population carries this bacteria. In Spain some 40

45% of the people carry the bacteria. " Prohibited products " like cheese and

butter and milk made from non-pasteurized milk are freely available. I heard of

a local doctor in Menorca very recently actually recommending to some patients

that they eat the locally produced " non pasteurized cottage cheese " and this

whilst this infection is rife amongst 40-45% of his local population of which he

knows nothing. Yet this 40-45% of the local population suffers from the typical

arthritic / rheumatic complaints, likewise the miscarriage rate of pregnant

women is higher than average. I have also seen the typical skin blotches as

found on many newly acquired infections. When this doctor was confronted by a

patient who had already been previously contaminated and subsequently treated by

myself, he replied to the patient that she must not believe in rumours. I did

some tests in Germany and in the U.S.A. and found contamination levels

approximately equal to those of the people of Holland. In the UK the incidence

is up to 26% of the population. (These percentage figures were taken from the

book, " Bruceloza " and were figures taken in 1963. Holland stopped counting cases

in 1968) (The other figures I have taken empirically from my own files of case

histories).

e) There is such a vast spectre of different symptoms that they are not commonly

recognized.

f) The only true way of culturing the blood must be done at the body temperature

of the patient, as opposed to the conventional way of taking blood, letting it

cool for hours on end before doing an analysis. This is why the " modern " blood

test for Brucellosis never reveals an infection and is always negative.

g) The interesting fact is that in Italy there were 25,730 cases of Human

Brucellosis from 1939 to 1959, as reported by A. Alessandrini who did not even

accept this as a complete figure whilst he called Brucellosis a " Social Danger " .

Likewise he quoted that the infection coefficient in sheep and goats to be

50-100%. It was, at this stage, spread over the entire country and had spread to

horses, and pigs; further he reported that in many areas the bovine population

was also infected by Brucella Melitense.

h) In the U.S.A., although the authorities took a more intensive combatting

role, they were actually fighting a losing battle. During the years 1930-41 in

the 48 States, they recognised 29,594 cases of Brucellosis. In 1963, the WHO

reported 66,115 Brucella Abortus Bang, 1,580 of Brucella Suis, and 60 of

Brucella Melitense. Apparently Brucella Melitense is fairly common in the

Southern States.

Now it is a known fact that Brucella bacteria are transmitted to the next

generation in animals as well as human beings for 3 generations, so although

there has been no further reporting of cases (which does not mean that it no

longer exists), we are still having repercussions from the reported cases by way

of transmittance to future generations. In fact, the reporting of cases is a

political embarrassment and the individual countries and the medical profession

appear to be going through the motions of " Ostrich politics " .

In the USSR, or whatever you would like to now call this area, they have large

but unofficial unreported Brucellosis in bovines, horses, pigs, reindeer, goats,

sheep, dogs and many of the wild animals in the entire area; they also admit to

a " Wild Hare Brucellosis (Brucellosis Suis Thomsen) " in the South-East of the

Russian States or Satellite countries.

The German researchers (East and West Germany) even report a contamination of

the so called " British Melitensis " variant of the disease. (BORGER and

SEELEMANN). They published a map of the various: German " States " showing in

which " country (state) " the percentage of Brucellosis contamination was in

1958-59. One contamination spreader according to German researchers is the

insect population, the fly. Stomoxys Calcitrans has been proved to be

responsible for contaminating wild boars. (WELLMANN) and HARNACH admitted that

the Musca Domestica fly was responsible for carrying the disease from cattle. He

also offered the theory that mosquitoes actively carried the disease over to

human beings. In this connection HARNACH cites a research into miscarriages in

the stables that reported that 11% of the insects inspected were carriers of

live brucellosis, of which 7.4% were superficial and 3.7% in the intestine. In

dungheap housed flies, 13% had live Brucellosis. From experimentally infected

mosquitoes, one can isolate after 48-52 hours Brucellosis in the intestine, and

from experimentally infected flies, after 7 days. This is why personnel working

in stables are prone to infection.

This is one way of contracting the diseases, and even unrelated to the farm,

people can thus be contaminated. Likewise we must admit that there are natural

habitats where Brucellosis can be found e.g. nature reserves amongst the

wildlife. (Wild Boars, Deer, Rabbits and Hares, Foxes, carrion eating birds,

insects, etc.). There is in fact a listing of 74 types of wild animals and 53

species of insects that carry Brucellosis. I must here point out that to

establish this natural reservoir link that in Germany, there was a 2-year study

done in 1964-1965 wherein the researchers tested 7000 animals in 45 nature

reserves, and in 19 cases Brucellosis was culturally proven, and in another 102

cases, by serological means. The cultural Brucellosis cases were proven to be

from 6 origins, and the serological cases proved to be from 4 different origins.

Likewise they proved Brucellosis from bloodsucking insects in 18 cases, and

another 20 cases showed the natural tendency towards Brucellosis. A few of the

insectal infected animals displayed a long term persistent type of Brucellosis.

The most subjective animal to carry the disease was found to be the hare; they

were found to be 1.5% of the total contaminated species.

McNUTT and PURVIN (1930) found that 1.7% of 5,350 chickens were contaminated by

Brucella Abortus Bang and by later research of 10,000 chickens, results proved

to be 2% positive. Later there were further studies done in the USA by von

GILMAN and BRUNETT, by THOMSEN in Denmark, by von EMMEL in the USA, and by

BELLER and STOCKMYER 1933. They concluded that under certain conditions, an

infection to humans was possible from fowl to human by slaughtering, as well as

from egg to human by eating.

To come back to human beings: In the event of a Human mother unwittingly passing

on this disease, the second and third generation sufferers are much more

difficult to diagnose. Fortunately using Electro acupuncture or B.F.D., this is

somewhat easier. However, by comparing symptoms of e.g. Grandmother to Mother to

Granddaughter we can often verify the findings, and by treating these various

persons with nosode therapy, you notice the change within the body, not only by

the homeopath but also by the patient.

I was once very privileged to measure with electro-acupuncture 4 generations in

the case of another disease which carries toxins to 7 generations and I was

amazed at the basic structure of the disease carrying through the generations

whilst it became more difficult to distinguish and diagnose per each passing

generation. The 94 year old Great-Grandmother actually remembered that her

father was the original disease sufferer, so she was not amazed or bewildered by

my findings. The youngest recipient of the transmitted genetic toxin was 19

years old, and was already showing many symptoms of the original disease. In

other words, Brucella Abortus Bang becomes a genetic disorder, and is

transmitted for at least 3 generations; unfortunately, with each generation it

becomes harder to identify as it is borne in the new generation congenitally.

Case 1:

Involves a very recent case where a Dutch colleague, 65 years old, male. I had

diagnosed him previously as having 2nd generation Brucella Abortus Bang after

going through the family's medical history with him. It took 6 weeks to clear

away the Brucella Abortus Bang with nosode therapy. The patient still continued

to have bowel problems, undulant fevers, very non-specific, yet nagging pains

and often a loose bowel motion. His skin colour had a yellowish hue. He was

steadily losing weight. I must add that since early childhood he was a

vegetarian. When I saw him again, I found that under the Brucella Abortus Bang

infection was a masked Brucella Melitense. He had never been near sheep or

goats, and has never ever eaten mutton or beef. The patient remembered the

symptoms his mother had in his childhood, which were consistent with his own

symptoms. During the treatment of the Brucella Melitense the patient relived all

his old symptoms and is now well on the road to recovery. The reverse vicaration

of symptoms were very revealing to him, and he relived all his old fevers and

pains and aches during the eight week nosode-taking period. It was interesting

to note that the skin colours changed each time he took the nosode, and there

were changes in the intestine in relation to the liver where there was the

beginnings of a transportation of iron from the intestine to the liver. Also

notable was the hypoglycaemia-like condition in the pancreas that was cured

spontaneously after the Brucella Melitense treatment. This had been with him

during his entire life. Now after taking the treatment he feels like a

completely different person.

Case 2:

A 39 year old woman came to see me in Spain. She had various complaints, most of

which were minor, but the worst problem was a form of LIVER CIRRHOSIS, which to

all intents and purposes had all the hallmarks of Hemochromatosis. Her hand

palms had an outer edge which was bright red in colour. She had red blotches in

the neck and upper chest, as well as on the face. She was English and not

covered by Spanish health care insurance so I referred her to St. Hospital

in Leeds where there was a specialist in this field of Hemochromatosis.

Two months later I received the results, a) that it was a rare case of

Hemochromatosis as she was female. (Apparently it is rare for women to get this

disease according to the specialists.) that she was too young to normally

have it. It apparently occurs more in the 50's or early 60's and c) apart from a

liver transplant the specialist could not offer any other advice than draining

off 1 pint of blood every week (bloodletting) to try to stop the iron content

building up too much in the liver. Further he advised her, because of the

unusual circumstances mentioned, to return every three months for a complete

blood analysis and eventually a liver transplant. This was the only advice. No

medication was given. I had my original suspicion confirmed.

I started treating this patient by removing every infection foci I could find,

and started her on the enzyme treatment of the company Heel. Coenzyme

Compositum, Ubichinon Compositum, and Glyoxal Compositum. As I had also found

the first traces of cancer, I included Carcinomium Compositum in the

prescription. The results were excellent. After the first 6 weeks I could stop

treating her with the Carcinomium Compositum as I could not detect any trace of

the cancer. [see The Journal of Degenerative Diseases, Vol. l, Nos 3-4, Cancer

and the Mycoplasma, pp. 58-59--Ed.] In subsequent visits I took her off the

enzyme treatment as her condition improved. During the entire time the patient

continued the bloodletting. Currently she has recently shed her 280th pint.

During the enzyme treatment, I came across the Brucella Melitense infection in

the Colon transversum, which I had not been able to identify earlier. The

patient was not aware of any contamination she had knowingly had herself.

However, in her family history, both grandfathers had kept goats. One of these

grandfathers had died from an illness which the doctor could not identify. She

remembered that he had many fevers of unknown sources before finally passing

away.

Her brother, two sisters, and a cousin have now been diagnosed as suffering from

genetic Hemochromatosis by the specialists. The whole family had a double dose

of it as both grandfathers were carriers medically proven by the specialists.

Since I have been treating her for the Brucella Melitense there are some

definite improvements in her general health although the Hemochromatosis is

still there, (possibly for life).

Case 3:

Involves a lady sheep farmer from N. Devon who came to see me as she had been

diagnosed as having M.S. This turned out to be Herpes Zoster which had

perforated the left eye lens. It left lesions on the brain. The MRI scan had

picked up the lesions, and these had been taken for Multiple Sclerosis. Upon

further investigation I found that the pancreas and liver were malfunctioning.

This turned out to be a damaged liver, with iron entering the liver from an

infected intestine. Upon further physical examination it was found to have been

caused by Brucella Melitense.

This lady openly admitted that they had experienced many problems on the farm

for some years. These had taken the form of miscarriages in the sheep: lambs

being born too early in term; hand-rearing lambs where their mother had no milk

for them, etc. Their veterinary doctor had never looked at these problems, let

alone taken appropriate action. This put at risk anyone who drank the ewe's milk

or yoghurt, or the cheese made from unpasteurised milk. Thus any humans that ate

or drank these products were at risk. So were the next three generations.

I have treated this lady farmer for 6 weeks. The results are remarkable. She no

longer has any of the M.S.-like symptoms. The liver is being nursed back to

health. She feels 500% improved health. The Hypoglycaemic symptoms have all but

disappeared, and the symptomatic signs of the Hemochromatosis have halved, and

are still lessening. The swollen liver feels smaller and soft as before. It will

take possibly another 3 months of treatment. The prognosis is a good one Six

weeks later I was able to discharge her from my care.

Case 4:

A lady from Southampton came to see me for an electronic allergy test (I do a

test for 900 different allergens electronically). Upon examination I found the

typical Brucella Melitense infection as her only cause of infection. She was

allergic to wool, mutton, lamb, sheep and goat's milk, yoghurt and cheese made

from the products of sheep and goats. The lady then told me her remarkable

story. She had been to N. Devon on holiday on a sheep farm, four and a half

years earlier. The farmer on whose farm she stayed was a very ill man, and he

(in the few words they had exchanged) expressed the fears that he had caught a

sheep disease. After a few months he had passed on.

Whilst she was on holiday there she had injured the top of her hand by

scratching it open on a gate post. The wound would not heal and eventually had

become ulcerated. When she was back home in Southampton she visited her local

G.P. and found him to be away, so she saw his locum (replacing G.P.--Ed.). The

wound by now had grown a lot larger. The locum doctor asked her if she had

anything to do with sheep, to which she replied by telling him of her story of

the sheep farm at N. Devon. The locum then treated her hand with a steroid

creme, and no more was then done, as the wound had healed.

Now, 4 years later, after the healing of the ulcerated hand, I find a Cirrhosis

of the liver, and a colon which (along its entire length) has ulcers causing the

Cirrhosis. She also had all the classical symptoms of Hemochromatosis. Taking

into consideration the condition of the liver, and the state of her general

condition I wrote a letter to her G.P. telling him to check his patient's chart,

and pointing out to him his locum's findings, and then my diagnosis. I also gave

him my most recent diagnosis.

At the same time I included an advice prescription as to what I would use to

clear up the condition, if he should be inclined to use my method. I gave him a

prognosis and possible solutions, and assured him that I would look after our

patient. I said I would give him progress reports etc. in the event of his using

my advice prescription. I included the name of the importer and the price of the

medication.

I also told the patient why I was sending her back to her G.P. Also, she did not

have the means to buy the medication herself but I assured her that if the G.P.

let her down and did not help her, she could always come back to me herself, and

I would help her.

Case 5:

This involves a lady who came originally from another part of the country, and

moved to N. Devon 5 years ago, after which she started drinking sheep and goat's

yoghurt and eating unpasteurized goat's cheese. She started this at age 50 and

by 55 years old had to take early retirement due to ill health. She had never

been ill before eating this N. Devon yoghurt and cheese.

At present she has a diseased liver, and all the classical markings of

Hemochromatosis on her face, her neck, and her chest. She is suffering from a

hardening of the liver and has suffered for the past 5 years from pain in the

intestines.

Six weeks later the lady has returned for her check-up. She has suffered severe

reverse vicaration during the first two weeks, pain in the intestine, bloated

liver tender to the touch, felt liverish, unable to eat much, pain in pancreas

region, joint pains, stiff neck, and frozen shoulders. Upon measuring her body,

I found that in about another three weeks the infection will be gone. The liver

is more palpable, less swollen, and I could hardly find any infection in the

intestine. The skin blotches have all but disappeared, the palms of the hands

which used to have a bright red edge around them are now less coloured.

The patient reported that she is feeling a lot better; her family has noticed

that she has much more energy and that she is no longer in constant pain. All in

all, there is much improvement and it appears that the next 6 weeks will more

than likely see an end to her problems.

Case 6:

A Jamaican lady aged 54 came to our clinic with a Sarcoid. Upon measuring her

body by means of the BFD method, it was found that she had Brucella Melitense.

Upon the exact nosode, it was found that the Sarcoid type of measurements eased

off to a normal level when the Brucella Melitense ampoules were tested and no

sign of malignancy of the Sarcoiditis was seen anymore.

The lady had pet goats when she was a child and had a history of illnesses

behind her typical of the Brucellosis. She vividly remembered all the symptoms

and, as she has a strong medical background, she could accept our findings. At

the end of the Brucella Melitensis cure we found her condition to be excellent.

During the treatment she clearly felt the reverse vicarations of the illness. By

the end of the first 6 weeks, the Sarcoid mark on her skin appeared to be

reducing not only in size but also in colour. By the end of the tailing down of

the Brucella Melitense treatment it had shrunk to less than 50% of its original

size and colouring.

[incidently, Sarcoidosis had very veiled early symptoms, very much like a

Brucella Melitensis. I am unable to look into the past, but, from what this

medically enlightened patient says, there could be a link in her case between

this and the Brucella Melitense. I will keep looking for signs. [see also The

Journal of Degenerative Diseases, Vol. 2, #1, pp. 57-67--Ed.]

Case 7:

The Jamaican lady in the above mentioned case sent her son for treatment. We

found him to be a drug addict. He claimed his addiction was due to his feeling

ill all his life, and this was his way of keeping body and soul together. We

found him to be a second generation infection of Brucella Melitense, with pain

in the intestines. The brucellosis was difficult to identify but it was the key

to all his complaints. He asked us to a) treat his condition and assist him

in kicking his habit.

Now that he is on the taildown of the Brucella Melitense treatment, he has let

go of his " habit " ; his skin colouring has improved drastically; and, he is about

to be treated homeopathically to assist him in kicking his smoking habit.

In short at this stage I have treated another 28 cases of Brucella Melitense

both here (in the U K.) and in Spain and they were nearly all identical in

symptoms and results. Save that there was one case in Spain-There was a 34 year

old lady who did not take the medication. She suffered many pains as time went

on and 18 months later she passed away from liver cancer.

By now it must be clear that many women under 40 suffer from this complication

of Hemochromatosis which dispels the official thoughts on this converted

illness. I now have seen a large number of cases where the enzootic disease of

Brucella Melitense which on the face of it had barely recorded links, up to now,

with Hemochromatosis. We now see that often it is the infection of Brucella

Melitense which is focused in the bowel, that causes iron to be pushed into the

liver. This in turn causes the copper coloured blotches on the skin and the

redness on the palms of the hands, as well as the breaking down of blood vessels

on the face, the neck and the upper chest. We are aware that this enzootic

disease of Brucella Melitense is not well recorded, neither are its link-ups to

other diseases. Brucella Melitense also displays symptoms of lack of sexual

appetite, loss of energy and terrible pains in the Colon, Liver and Pancreas

areas.

Should my researches be proven to be correct, this Brucella Melitense problem

could well take on some of the proportions (hopefully lesser than) of the recent

BSE (Mad Cow Disease-Ed.) drama. The British government has up to now never

admitted to having a " Brucella Melitense " problem. It is also interesting to

note that in 30 years there has never been another " European " investigation into

" Brucellosis " . This means that in order to research my subject I have had to

look at records, some of which are 30 or more years old. This does not mean that

in these 30 years past much has changed, apart from governments in Europe no

longer reporting on the problem.

Another disturbing point of information I came across during my research into

this sheep and goat disease is that " unfit for human consumption " milk powder,

due to its expiry date having lapsed by a great margin, is now being fed to ewes

which have reached their economical end of breeding. The ewes really go for this

supplement and as a result, apparently the colour of the mutton changes to that

of a lamb, so that dishonest brokers can get the lamb price for old,

artificially coloured mutton.

I hope that my empirically based findings will assist a scientist in taking a

deeper look into the problems regarding Brucella Melitense.

Conclusions

1) The United Kingdom has never really admitted to ever having a Brucella

Melitense or Brucella Abortus Bang problem, borne out by the survey of the

international investigation in 1964. As there has never been an update on this

survey and nothing has been reported about the disease's presence, we are

living, according to the recent speech of Mr. Major (previous British Prime

Minister--Ed.), " in cloud Cuckoo land. " This is compounded by the fact that the

veterinarians, who are working with the sheep farmers, are not picking up on the

signs and symptoms of the disease. This in turn is compounded by the fact that

the method of the blood analysis in all cases of Brucellosis is wrong. This test

should be done on body temperature blood which is cultivated at that body

temperature. Very often this blood is taken and it is allowed to cool down

before being sent off by post to a laboratory where it is tested conventionally.

This is one of the reasons why they never have positive tests.

2) If further research proves my theory that Hemochromatosis is indeed caused by

Brucella Melitense, and that if the disease of Hemochromatosis is found at a

fairly early stage, by treating it in the tradition of Homotoxicology the

disease can be stopped. This would mean that future generations stemming from

the patient need not suffer from the consequences of the disease or its eventual

secondary liver disease.

3) There is a definite need for the source of the disease to be eradicated by

the abrupt stopping of the farmer from selling raw milk products, (like milk,

cream, butter and farm made cheese and yoghurt.). I have just cured myself from

Brucella Abortus Bang, which I contracted from cheese made in Britain sold under

the brand label of one of the largest Superstores in this country. Obviously the

ministry of Health allows these Superstores to purchase direct from farmers,

unpasteurised milk products such as cream, farm cheese, yoghurts, etc. which are

then sold in the Superstores under their own brands.

Perhaps it would be advantageous to adopt the French system where the seller of

this produce has to display a certificate assuring that the produce on display

is made from " Brucellosis Free " animals and is signed by the local veterinarian,

as well as the State Veterinarian. In France this test must be made every six

months otherwise there is NO sale of goods.

It may also be wise to adopt the Dutch method of dealing with an outbreak. Thus

if one animal on the farm is positive, then the State Veterinarians move in

culling every single animal on that farm, burning all carcases, burning all

sheds etc .where contamination from the animals could be found. It could also be

suggested that the land should be proclaimed as non-grazing land until no

further contamination is found there by the State Veterinary department or an

independent responsible agency.

4) As there has never been a great investigation done on sheep and goat's

diseases at any level, and in the light of what I uncovered in the form of

malpractices in feeding aged sheep milk powder " not fit for human consumption "

to change the colour of the meat so that it can fetch the higher Lamb price from

the consumer, I would like to believe that perhaps this orignial paper can stir

scientists and perhaps even governments into taking some action.

5) If my assumptions and conclusions are correct and verified by the 29 out of

the 35 cases I have studied, I may safely deduce that Brucella Melitense has

indeed an influence on complications of iron reflux going into the liver as a

result of intestinal infection. This in turn may cause Cirrhosis and

Hemochromatosis-like symptoms. I hope that by my research and empirical study I

have opened the way to a far more in-depth research into Brucella Melitense and

Hemochromatosis. I hope some relief may to given to the thousands of people

suffering from this affliction. (According to a " specialist " at the St.

Hospital in Leeds, the number is 300 patients per million.)

6) All my findings in this original paper were done empirically and any

medications used on the patients mentioned were biological or homeopathic. I am

open to criticism or correction by any researcher doing an in-depth study as to

further findings in the subject of Brucella Melitense and Hemochromatosis.

Lastly

The very latest case I had was a lady who came to see me from Netley Abbey, near

Southampton and she had a disease 17 years ago which was described by her G.P.

at the time as Hand, Foot and Mouth disease. She had it, her 1 year old son, her

husband and her neighbours, in fact the entire newly-built area had this

disease. The doctor told her that it was a 24 hour virus, but she had never felt

well since. Her son had suffered various problems since but none were ever

traced back to the epidemic time 17 years ago.

Upon measuring her with the BFD I found that the original disease was Brucella

Melitense. According to the strength of the ampoules required it pointed out

exactly 17 years. I found it in her liver, spleen, stomach, pancreas,

intestines. She is now going to bring her son and husband.

Upon further investigation it turned out that these houses were built on the

ex-dairy farm of Farmer Frampton. This family has by now died out but before

this township was built it was known that a) Farmer Frampton used these fields

for mixed herds of cattle and sheep and goats. It is also known to some of

the local elderly residents that Farmer Frampton's mixed herds had many

diseases amongst them. So when the land was sold up it must have been diseased,

and the new residents, being house-proud, dug the earth, planted plants and

vegetables, and became ill. They were misdiagnosed and now 17 years later we

still find these people carrying the animal diseases of Farmer Frampton's flock.

The government has just had veterinarians doing blood tests in Devon checking up

on this disease. They took some 20 sheep at random out of the thousands of sheep

at each farm, took some blood off them, let the blood cool down and the next day

these blood vials were sent of to the laboratories to be tested. Now what is

wrong is that Brucellosis can only be cultured in body temperature blood, so if

the body temperature is

say 38.4 degrees Centigrade you need to culture it immediately at that

temperature, as once you let it cool

down the bacteria dies in minutes; so sending off blood the next day after cold

storing it will not ever give a positive reading. Small wonder that these tests

are never positive, if they are doing the test wrong.

I have just seen a sheep dairy farmer whom I have checked regularly before, and

have not before found anything such as Brucella Melitense or Brucella Abortus

Bang. Now he has installed a cheese making plant and has started purchasing

sheep milk from 7 other farmers. He now has Brucella Melitense in his own body

from the milk he has purchased and not pasteurised before making sheep yoghurt

and sheep cheese. In doing tests with the milk of his producers I found both

Brucella Melitense and Brucella Abortus Bang in the milk samples supplied to me

by the farmer/cheese producer. It makes me wonder how the government agency

allows unpasteurised dairy products to be sold to the public.

The other startling discovery is that the government here allows the dairy

boards to manipulate the temperatures of the pasteurisation process of milk, viz

in order to save energy in the pasteurisation process they allow 63 degrees

Centigrade as the maximum and zero degrees as the lower temperatures. As a

result I have actually isolated Brucella Abortus Bang, Brucella Melitensis,

Tuberculinum Bovinum, Tuberculinum De Nijs, Mycoplasma Bovinum, Mycoplasma

Dispar and Mycoplasma Bovis and Mycoplasma Ovine in milk taken off the shelves

at the Supermarkets. In effect the pasteurised milk is highly dangerous and

nobody wants to listen.

This is of course besides the contamination the population is placed under by

Germ Warfare experimentation. The Ministry of Defence secret plant has admitted

quite recently that they had done 153 tests of this nature upon the population,

a lot of this was with Brucellosis, and Mycoplasma infections.

Brucella Suis

We have no nosodes to combat this disease and as such we cannot diagnose it

exactly, although some of the symptoms are recorded in the previous article on

Brucella Melitense. The same goes for Brucella Canis.

PROPHYLAXIS

Pasteurising milk is no longer effective and Sterilisation via gamma rays is our

last hope so use UHT or Long Life Milk ~which is bombarded by gamma rays for 1

second bringing up the temperature to over 135 degrees C in 1 second.

Wipe out Brucella infections in cattle (either by nosode means or wipe out all

animals on contaminated farms).

Never eat raw or partially cooked meat, or unpasteurized milk products, and

never drink unpasteurized milk. (Unfortunately a strong Brucellosis infection

will even stand being Pasteurised. Admittedly it is rare, but it can sometimes

survive it.) Most Cheddar Cheeses in Canada and the U.K. are farmhouse cheeses

and are made from unpasteurised milk so avoid eating unprocessed cheeses.

THERAPY

Nosodes and drainage with one or more of the following:-Berberis Vulgaris MT;

Carduus nus MT; Solidago Virgaurea MT; Taraxacum Dens Leonis MT; Lymph

drainage; Scrophularia Cosmoplex; Lymphomyosot. This is a treatment lasting six

weeks. After this period, test to ensure the infection is gone. Also please
