THE CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM


The HEART comprises several tissues and must be studied according to its complex embryological origin. A first division is of importance: the right part (related to lung circulation, hence the complications at that level) with the coronary veins is depending on the left hemisphere while the left part (related to large circulation and thus much more vital) with the coronary arteries is managed by the right hemisphere.

The coronary veins and arteries (CF2) are targeted by a conflict of having to fight for the territory. The pain provoked by ulceration is called angina pectoris. This pain is not very pronounced at the level of the veins, but it may be very strong at the level of the arteries; with all the possible variations according to the intensity of the conflict and of its re-stimulation during each crisis of angina pectoris. The infarction is the second phase epileptoid crisis and has nothing to do with the cliché of obstruction by cholesterol. This one, next to its very mediatised scapegoat role, assumes, on the contrary, an essential function in the second phase repairing the vascular ulceration. The severity of this forced complication of cerebral oedema is proportional to the conflict and the affection of the left part is essentially masculine (cf. hormonal status and laterality).

The pericard (CF1) is the external membrane of the heart. The conflict is the attack against the organ, either real or more often diagnostic ("You are a cardiac now, after your infarction"). The proliferations (called mesothelioma) are encysted or destroyed in the 2nd phase, with the production of an oedema: it is the pericardic extravasation, by compressing the heart, that is one of the causes of what is called heart failure; and problematical seeing the risk of relapse through vicious or iatrogenous circle.

The endocard (CF2) is the internal membrane of the heart. The conflict is a devalorisation as to the efficiency of the heart. In the 2nd phase, there is a formation of callosities on the cardiac walls and an alteration of the valves.

The vessels (CF2) are three in number: veins, arteries and lymphatics. All of them ulcerate in the first phase (accompanied by an eventual dilator) and are "consolidated" in the second phase. The conflict is devalorisation and the localisation can be decoded with the same clue as for the skeleton or the skin. The nuance for the arteries is the "lack of punch" as for the veins, it is the fact of "having one’s nose to the grindstone"; an experience allowing to understand the predominance according to the sex of the individual.

The ganglions (CF2) may be swollen simply because of their natural function being lymphatic draining in the inflammatory phenomenon; for example in the neck during an angina or at the groin during an abscess at the inferior limb. And in this case, their swelling does not imply a cellular proliferation. Their own pathology corresponds to a devalorisation conflict being less important than that of the bone and is accompanied by a nuance of insecurity; and it obeys to the same localisation rules as that one. Here again, according to the level of reproductive activity in the second phase (the anatomopathologic criterion!), we will have a non-malignant or cancerous diagnosis in the different affections of this tissue: infectious mononucleosis, lymphoma, lymphosarcoma, lymphogranulomatosis, Hodgkin’s disease, etc…

A few words though on the diagnosis of metastatic ganglions, resulting from current findings of swollen glands next to a "cancer". This finding confirms the concept of cancerous dissemination and permits the compulsory ganglionic emptying and the therapeutic complements of radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy if the exploration reveals to be "positive". Next to the possibility of a physiological swelling during the inflammation of this tumour – forecasting its reparation phase – the observation of ganglions having proliferated is effective. But at first, this eventuality does curiously not have any systematic relation with the presence of the tumour and even less with its size (as it is the case for all "metastases"…). In reality, this ganglionic pathology is the second phase of one of the "parts" of the conflict, a part expressing the devalorisation – insecurity side in the principal experience of the conflict having engendered the tumour. And rather than a ganglionic emptying and its consequences (mechanical first with a disturbed lymphatic circulation, but especially a severe mutilation risk by surgery and anxiety caused by the diagnosis), one could be satisfied with only removing those provoking a physical discomfort and refrain from announcing that the tumour is already in its first metastatic stage within the organism!

The spleen (CF2) is related to the lymphatic glands and the conflict of devalorisation/insecurity is linked with the notion of blood: conflict of weakening and/or fear following a wound, especially when there is a bleeding; also a diagnosis: "You have a severe blood disease".
