his friends is in need of a bone marrow transplant and my husband volunteered to get it tested to see if it's a match.

I believe my husband's knee is better from surgery by removing the staph infection.
and sleeping better.

Is there a remedy to strengthen his leg now. all his left side is weaker now, since the surgery. He has favored that side from the knee.

He wants to run a 13.1 mile marathon in October. He needs to start trainning for it. or is that Impossible?

thank You.
 
dragonfly1976 last decade
CAUSTICUM 1M may be given to him weeekly for 3 weeks and then if he requires a dose or two or CAUSTICUM 10M given one dose a month would give him permanent relief in his legs.

I believe he would be able to run the marathon if the remedy holds.

Thank You So Much for all your kind and hard work.


I just ordered the Causticum in both potency.

My husband is not sleeping well again.

My husband received some bad news. He found out that his friend who has cancer was told he had threee years to live.
It was very distressing to him.

Should I give him Causticum 200c, or waite for the 1M potency to come?

Thank You.
 
dragonfly1976 last decade
if you dont have 1m right now, you can try with 200c.

see if it works.
 
rishimba last decade
I tried the Causticum 200c in the liquid form on my husband, He slept ten hours straight that night. and usually on the weekends he takes naps because he is so tired. He did not after Causticum. I didn't give any remedy for tonight.

Thank You.
 
dragonfly1976 last decade
thats ok.

if he has responded well, there is no need to repeat the dose.

My husband has developed a fever,chills, and runny nose.


I have given him another dose of Causticum 200c. the higher potency is not here yet. I called the company, it is coming from the lab.

I hope, I did not prove the remedy.

Thank You Again.

His mucus is clear, and his kleenex is wet as well.

I thought He may have these toxins still from the staph and the surgery.
..don't know.

My Husbands Causticum 1m, and 10m remedy has arrived. I think, I'm supposed to give the 1m potency to him, am I correct?

since his last dose of Causticum 200c. and some Arnica 30c (as noted on this post), my husband has developed few acne. My husband had terrible acne problems as a kid/teenager that he freeked out when the acne came. He had it BAD!! and was on steriod meds for it for long time. so, I think..he was afraid that acne was going to come back.

I said to him that that was ok, and it is cleaning out his body. He said no more homeopathy since the acne. (crabby!)

I know that he needs the Causticum remedy regardless what the potency may be.

Today, my husband was moody and crabby. I have not seen hime in this state in a long time. He is very sweet to me,and he takes homeopathy so willingly as well.

I tried to give him the 1m potency....No, go.

We are packing to live on a vacation. His workload is always crazy. Somehow, people find out that we are going to be closed for a week, they want my husband to fit them in somehow before he leaves town.

We had to finish our corportion taxes as well before we leave so, the timing was crazy.

I am taking all my remedies with me, since we are driving. I will see if he will take the 1m potency when he is in a relaxed state.

in the future, if my husband acne is not cured. I would need your help with that.

and I want to let you know that My husband has a terrible fear of the flying on the plane.

I did consult a homeopathy person (where I buy my remedies from) regarding this and she said to give him Argent. Nit 30c (she did not ask anything about him)for that, I didn't think I saw any improvement.

oh well..

thank you for your help.
 
dragonfly1976 last decade
My husband took the first dose Causticum 1m willingly.
I'm scared. I never took 1m potency myself. Will post any updates.

Thank you.
 
dragonfly1976 last decade
I noticed my husband is back to himself as soon as he took the causticum 1m.
We are in the Car driving aways, going on away on vacation trip, he is joking, laughing and being relaxed enjoying the music on the radio.


Thank you.
 
dragonfly1976 last decade
great, have a nice trip.

gave the second dose of Caustium 1m on 3/21/10 Sun.because
On Sun. night my husband told me about the headache he had on Sat.
I had him describe it. He said (crest of Helix)pounds like a heartbeat and have a headache.

Many years ago he droped some heavy weights (from working out) on his chin. since then he has this headache.

I asked on after taking the homeopathy, how has this headache of his. He thought for a second, and realized that they are not as strong and the pain left soon after. He said he would feel it for a long time. (the ponding and the headache)

this Sunday..Should I give him another dose of the Caustium 1m, regardless if he needs it or not?

Thank You.
 
dragonfly1976 last decade
no need.

just give him when you feel he needs it...that is, when the symptoms come back.
