The ABC Homeopathy Forum
First time posting!
I'm rather new to homeopathy and its merits.I've been on traditional medications for heart/complicated migraine issues for the last 10 years. These medicines have caused me great grief in the digestion department. How can I put this delicately...chronic constipation. I've done the gamut to obtain relief...with only minor successes.
Recently my daughter suggested I try a homeopathic spray remedy and I am sooooooo happy to report that things are so much better for me.
I know that once you are better you should stop the remedy. However, in my case, chronic...is it safe for me to remain on this spray 'until the cows come home' lol?
This has been a god send to me!

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
This depends. A homeopathic spray is probably a combination remedy, and in general one should only use a single remedy as appropriate.
You need a complete analysis of your case, and an individual treatment. In general homeopathic treatment can cure symptoms and pathologies completely over a significant period of time.
One estimate that it takes 1-2 years of homeopathic treatment to cure a condition that has existed for 10-20 years.

Two remedies come to mind Carcinosin (Carc.) and Sepia (Sep.).
There are some indications here for the medicine Carcinosin.
Family history of Cancer.
sluggish, tired, want to just lay still.
Craves Chocolate, salt
feel rather alone
Sepia symptoms.
hot flashes due to entering menopause.
libido a bit low.
Heavy periods that start and stop.
and some generalities.
You might want to get Sepia 30c at a health food store. Put one pellet in a bottle of water and let it dissolve. Take one tablespoon, and throw the rest away. That could last for a few weeks to a month or more. Homeopathic remedies can produce a permanent cure for many of these symptoms. You could feel better than ever before.
Please email how you feel afterwards. If the effect is good, we'll stay with Sepia. Otherwise, we might consider Carc.
You must stop the spray, as you can only be on one homeopathic medicine at a time. The spray would cancel the effect of the Sepia.
Are you a Medical Doctor? Homeopathy is it's own complete system of medicine, and that one remedy treats the whole person and all symptoms that they have. You might want to read some introductory material about what homeopathy is.
