This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
This information is taken for Dr. Luc Du Schepper's website. You should read through it to better understand what information needs to be given to help a homoeopath make a homoeopathic prescription.
'While we ask so many questions for acute diseases, there is not even a comparison with chronic illness. Here the homeopath, when he asked all the pertinent questions, will know you or your child almost better than yourself. Lets see what is important and what not.
What is not important is that you give your homeopath all the symptoms that are common to a disease name. For instance, diabetes with increased urination and thirst. These are common symptoms. Dont say, I have chronic fatigue, I am depressed, I have muscle pain so give me something. Every depressed person for instance will have a different reason that he started to get depressed and every depressed person will react differently to his depression. Some get drunk; others remove themselves from society and lock themselves in their home; others will phone everyone to tell them how miserable they are
In other words here are the important questions you must answer: What happened in your life you got depressed (or sick)? How did you react to this illness? What precisely are your symptoms, not those out of the medical Merck Manual, which will give a general overview of all possible symptoms but which ones are pertaining to you? And that is just the start.
Make sure to make a time line of yourself or your loved one that comes on consultation: from birth on you write down what illnesses you had, what was done for them, what caused them, what mental emotional events took place in your life (what situations of grief for instance happened and again how did you react), vaccinations and reactions to them, etc. Try to be precise in your dates/years as the homeopath tries to see if there is more than one layer of illness or if there is a repetition of the same trauma, creating a huge layer
Give from both sides of parents the family history as far as you can go back: age and diseases they suffered from and from what they died eventually. The homeopath uses this knowledge to see what your inherent weaknesses are and it will be important in the selection of your chronic remedy
The medical diagnosis (name of the disease) can be very important so always bring your medical reports to the homeopath. The name of the disease guides us in selecting a remedy according to its miasmatic trait so we can apply a remedy that is much deeper working. It is also important to give us an idea regarding the prognosis: is it curable? How long is it going to take? A pure physical illness if not long-term suppressed will cure faster than an emotional one (depression for instance) and a mental/emotional one (ASD, ADHD, OCD, etc) will take more time
VERY IMPORTANT: if your child suffers from an illness from birth on or discovered soon after birth: the homeopath is very interested what happened during the pregnancy and will ask you questions which no one has asked before. Lets say your child suffers from ASD, ADHD, selective Mutism, etc, here are some questions that are VERY important in order to help your child.
1.What was the mothers reaction when she heard for first time she was pregnant? Joy? Grief? Shame? Or any other emotion.
2.What was the reaction of husband and close family?
3.Was the husband absent during the pregnancy, either because of traveling, or there was a separation, or even death?
4.Were there a lot of fights between both parents?
5.Did anything acute emotionally happen during pregnancy? Fright? Grief? Indignation? Jealousy? Deception? Was there a lot of feat about the forthcoming delivery?
6.Did the family dynamic during the pregnancy change (mother or other children moving in?)
7.Did you continue working? Was it physically and/or mental very hard?
8.How were previous pregnancies? Did you have any special cravings and/or aversions for foods?
9.How old were you and your husband when you got pregnant? And how was your physical and emotional state when you got pregnant? It tool allopathy a long time to realize that even the age of the father was important when the conception took place. The odds of fathering an autistic child are about 6 in 1,000 for men under 20. When a man reaches 50 (way beyond what TCM favors!), those odds shoot up to about 52 in 1,000. The optimal time for a man to father a healthy child is the same as for a woman25 or so, says Dolores Malaspina, a psychiatric professor at New York University and coauthor of the study. This same physician also conducted a study showing a connection between paternal age and schizophrenia. She found children born to fathers over 50 carried about three times the risk of developing schizophrenia as those born to fathers in their 20s. It is here that allopathy can learn something of TCM or Traditional Chinese Medicine. For the Chinese the ideal age of the woman was between 28 and 35 and for the man to father a child, between 32 and 40. These are the ages when your child receives the best possible essence or hereditary energy from the parents!
I hope that this lesson might guide you in giving precise information to your homeopath as it will increase the possibility to cure. And dont forget that you can ask other people in your family. Who can remember everything what one went through? Family members are a great help. And when you have a great family physician, dont discard him. He is another possible great ally!'
