Disturbances of the pancreas DISTURBANCES OF THE PANCREAS
Disease signs of the pancreas are found in both irides, corresponding to the position of the gland in the body, in both left and right at 20' and 40'. However, with extensive disturbance of the whole gland, signs even appear as well at 10' and 50' in the right iris.
As has already been noted in relation to stomach and intestinal diseases, there is a squaring of the first major zone, indicating an involvement of the total vegetative nervous system. It is then a question of a condition which is difficult to cure. The following is to be noted:
(a) The pancreas has its indications almost at the four corners of this 'Sympathetic-quadrant'.
(b) This means that in the presence of the pancreas sign and the square shaped wreath, we have an incurable condition.
(c) Such corners are virtually the storm-centre in the iris in all disturbances of the digestive system.
(d) Pancreatic disturbances which relate to the glandular secretory functions of the organ show mainly in the right iris.
(e) The signs always commence at the iris-wreath and show:
i. As weakness signs with decrease in the size of the organ = trophic weakness.
ii. As lightening with inflammation = over-stimulation. With inflammatory conditions and the consequent increased blood supply and enlargement of the organ, there would be an inward depression of the iris-wreath. ,
iii. As darkening = signs of hypofunction, in the form of dark wisps, clouds or spots. In this case we usually find the tendency to a square-shaped wreath, and must regard the pancreatic insufficiency as a consequence of chronic gastrointestinal disturbances, especially where there are indications in the adjacent intestinal area. Often there will be found partly healed ulcerated conditions, which vary from scar-tissue to complete adhesions, particularly in the areas for pylorus, duodenum, gall duct and pancreatic duct, and which must be considered as cause for the pancreatic weakness.
With cancerous processes affecting the pancreas—usually the head of the gland, we find the dark jagged sign especially extending from 20', 40' right iris, but also appearing at 50' right iris. Since the liver is always associated with cancerous changes as the principal organ of metabolic exchange and detoxication, we find a darkened, blurred liver area as well as a flattening of the iris rim in this same area.
It is important to make an exact examination of the pancreas area in the left iris at 20'. A weakness sign there, or a darkening of the area, indicates that there is a hereditary disposition to diabetes. If diabetes already exists, then the liver and kidney areas will show signs of encumbrance. Of course, the urine must then be examined for presence of sugar, and the patients interrogated for the presence of subjective symptoms of this illness.
As already mentioned in an earlier chapter, disease signs indicated in profile are always an expression of a grave condition. That goes especially for pancreatic disturbances, since this organ always shows its signs in profile.
