Perhaps in earlier times the “ruach HaEitzah was stronger than it is today. My experience with such issues with well-known Rebbes is spotty at best. While I have occasionally received valuable, to-the-point advice on minor matters. I have also received an egregiously wrong eitza on a serious medical matter. If on has a serious issue it’s best to consult with a a real expert. (N.B. Some Rebbes are, indeed, expert in some secular matters, but not all Rebbes on all such matters.)
