calc carb 10M and hypothyroidism
dear friends,my wife once responded very well to calc carb 200C when she had hypothyroidism. but after a yearit has come back. now her TSH level is high around 60. her present symptoms are not much different from her earlier symptoms. i gave her calc carb 200C this time too. but it had no effect. calc carb 1M also did not prove useful this time. is there anything wrong in trying calc carb 10M in her case? even now she presents a strongly calcarea picture with her sluggishness, tiredness, obesity, potbelly, worm infestation, leftsided headache, photophobia of eyes,difficulty to get up in the morning because of fatigue and body pain, left sided sciatica, sexual aversion and weakness, weak memory etc.
please advise me. will CC 10M cause hyperthyroidism or any other complications?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
It won't work. It probably won't do anything. While her state might seem the same it is quite likely that it has changed in some subtle way that takes it out of range of Calc-carb to help.
It might be that a complementary remedy is needed, or an antimiasmatic one. It could also be that the 200c has not be given to her again in the correct dosage. How did you repeat the Calc? (what manner did you give her the dose)
She might even need one of the other Calcium salts, like Calc-iodatum or Calc-arsenicum for example.

i put one drop of calc carb 200C in around 30ML water and asked her to take it three times a day giving around seven hours gap. no more dosing. what about calcarea caustica?

That is not the correct way to do Split dose.
Firstly, you need to create a separate dosing bottle. Get a bottle with a dropper, 15-30mls in size, and fill it with a mixture of water and alcohol (5 parts to 1 part). Dissolve 2-4 granules or 2-4 drops of the medicine you received from the pharmacy into this mixture. Your doses will be made from this bottle.
Hit the bottle firmly against the palm of your hand, or another elastic surface like a book. It should be a firm hit not a tap. 2 hits is enough to begin with, and should not be increased unless it is clear that it is needed. The water in this bottle will 'remember' the number of times you have hit it, so that subsequent doses will be stronger (necessary to overcoming the resistance of your disease).
Place 1 drop into an amount of water - I may start with anything from 1/4-1 full cup (62ml-250ml) depending on the sensitivity of the patient. Stir thoroughly and take 1 teaspoon into the mouth. Throw the rest of the cup away.
This is one dose. Repeat doses would be started from the 2 hits on the bottle.
Each step of this process can be adjusted to reduced aggravation or to increase the effect of the medicine. In order to be able to do this, it is important to measure each step (count the hits, the drops, measure the water etc).
The hitting of the bottle (succussion) is the most important step for continued management of a case. Without that the remedy will be less and less effective.
I usually increase the hits of the bottle to 4 first, then to 6 if that dose still does nothing, then to 8. If that is making no difference, it may be appropriate to reduce the amount of water, increase the number of drops, or increase the number of teaspoons you give her. You might even place a drop directly on the tongue rather than diluting it at all.
This is not to imply that Calc-carb is the right remedy. Without a case there is no way to know that. When I choose a remedy, I try to do so with the most confidence I can by confirming it on all levels of the person, through their history and all their symptoms. Then I am content to fiddle with the size of the dose and the potency to get better results, since I am sure the remedy choice is correct (until proven otherwise).
There is no way for me to guess at a remedy. There is no case to look at. All those things you mentioned are common generalised symptoms, which could belong to any remedy and many diseases.

Please have your WIFE provide the data. If she would like to speak as you type the answers that is fine, but they must come directly from her. This is very important for getting the correct remedy.
GUIDELINES FOR GIVING HOMOEOPATHIC CASE INFORMATION
It is important to describe all your problems in as much detail as you are able. One word answers and short sentences are not particularly helpful. Discuss each problem one at a time, providing (as a minimum level of detail) the following information.
1. What exactly happens?
2. Describe all sensations and pains. Each pain or sensation should be described in such a way that allows us to imagine having the same pain.
3. What causes the problem to get worse after it has started occurring?
4. What creates some relief for the problem?
5. What triggers the problem into occuring?
6. What time of the day or night does the problem occur?
7. When did the problem start? What was happening in your life at that time? Did some specific event or treatment take place just before the problem started?
Move from one problem to the next, doing the same thing. IT IS VITAL THAT YOU GIVE A COMPLETE PICTURE OF YOUR HEALTH BY PROVIDING ALL PROBLEMS YOU HAVE, EVEN IF NOT CONNECTED TO THE MAIN ONE, AND EVEN IF YOU CONSIDER IT OF LESS IMPORTANCE.
You should address each problem separately using the above 7 questions as a guide. Do not put all your complaints into each of the 7 questions. Discuss one problem at a time.
As well as this, please describe any traumatic incidents that have taken place in your life. Discuss anything that has had a lasting impact on you mentally, emotionally or physically.
Discuss the way that you manage or deal with your problems, or any problems that occur in your life.
Discuss any patterns you have noticed in your behavior especially concerning your disease.
Discuss any part of your life where you feel stuck or unable to change and grow, especially where this occurred around the beginning of your disease, or as the disease evolved.
Describe your childhood and the kind of environment you grew up in, with reference to your relationships with your family, your school experiences, and any serious childhood diseases.
If your earlier discussions have not mentioned these already, please describe:
1. The specific foods that you crave (not just like) or hate
2. The specific drinks that you crave or hate
3. What your sleep is like
4. How the weather and the temperature affects you
5. What kinds of things in the environment you are particularly sensitive to
6. What your general level of energy is like
7. What your level of sexual energy or desire is like
8. Describe your menstrual cycle
9. Also give these details
a) Body type and build
b) Skin colour and texture
c) Areas of the body tends to perspire on
d) Odour of sweat, body, stool, flatus, urine
e) Colour of stool, urine, sweat
10. Give any reactions to vaccines or medical drugs.
