3. Clinical Application

The rubric NEVER WELL SINCE is a historical entry point in homeopathic case analysis. It helps the physician investigate the possible relationship between a previous event and the present complaint.

During case taking, explore the following questions:

  1. What was the previous illness or event?
  2. When did the present complaints begin?
  3. Did the patient recover completely after that event?
  4. What new symptoms appeared afterwards?
  5. Which symptoms have persisted since then?
  6. Are there characteristic mental, physical and general symptoms supporting the remedy?
Clinical Note:

A causative history or a single rubric should not be considered sufficient for remedy selection. Correlate the patient’s complete symptom picture with the repertory and Materia Medica. These are traditional homeopathic associations and should not replace evidence-based diagnosis or appropriate medical treatment.

4. Conclusion

The rubric NEVER WELL SINCE is a useful historical entry point in homeopathic case analysis.

Its sub-rubrics help organize different causative histories and provide a systematic direction for further repertorial investigation.

Educational reference for homeopathic students and practitioners.
