slow bowel

Hi,

I suffer from an old IBS/constipation with symptoms of -
- Stools dont clear in one go in the morning, leaving a feeling of fullness in the lower abdomen
-after eating break-fast get some pressure to release remaining stool, feel better and light in head and abdomen.
If I dont go to relieve, tend to have bloated abdomen, dullness (clouded) in head, maybe gas later in the day and slight pain in left abdomen at area where descending colon starts.
Please advise so stools come out in one go in the morning.
Thank you,
Shashank

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Nat Phos 6x dose 3-4 tablets taken twice daily will help your problem.

Eat plenty of fruits especially bananas, papaya, prunes which all help to avoid constipation.

Your IBS and feeling of fullness will also disappear.

Reduce dosage when you find that you are regularized.

Thanks Joe for your prompt response and advise.
Sorry for not getting back earlier.
Soon after your response, that is from 23rd evening itself I have started on NP 6x twice a day, while stopping all other Homeopathic medicines I was taking under prescription - Alumina + Hydrastris Canandis Q + Chelidonium Q + Liv-52. Let me know in case any/one of these should be taken to help my case. Have also increased intake of bananas and papaya while prunes are not easily available here in North India (Delhi).
I have come across another of your suggestions on NP6x for IBS at another site/forum, where you said to take NP 6x thrice after each meal. Should I do that considering the below background to my case -
1) my constipation / IBS is over 14yrs old and
2) may have started, at that time, from fear of lizards in the toilet at that time :-), resulting in immediate receding of the stools then. I still today, check each time I enter the toilet :-(.
3) So, since about 2 yrs back, to get over the day long uneasy 'bloated abdomen, dullness (clouded) in head, maybe gas', I started going after breakfast to have a better feeling for rest of the day.

As of today since taking NP from 23rd, I have not noticed any difference in the above, but knowing my case is very old, shall have NP for atleast a month. Currently I also have dull pain around the navel, which reduces with passing gas and elimination of stool (forgot to add this earlier).
Shall let you know as soon as I see some constant change over 3-4 days.

Thanks - Shashank

Add Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.

The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

Thanks Joe.
Sorry for asking as am not clear, when you say 'Add Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.'
Is it twice a day for -
1) Arnica30c+ NP6x
or
2) Arnice 30c + [Hydrastris Canandis Q + Chelidonium Q + Liv-52] PLUS the globules for NP6x ?
The Mother tincture for Hydrastris Canandis Q + Chelidonium Q and Liv-52 I have been taking after each of the 3 meals (3 - Bfast+lunch+Dinner) till 23rd.

Thanks a lot in advance - Shashank

I failed to warn you to STOP all other medication if you are using mine.
You may suffer from some form of aggravation if you take all the remedies you have listed.

You will only take:

2-3 Tablets Nat Phos 6x immediately after every meal up to 3 meals daily and

Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.

HI Joe,

There is definite improvement in the 'dull pain around the navel' i.e. almost gone.
NP continues immediately after each meal.
Though I was not able to prepare the Wet dose, but was taking a drop of Arnica 30c in a mouthful of clean water twice a day, each time swishing for about a minute and then taking it down the throat in small lots.
Cosidering the improvement in the dull pain, is it okay to continue like this or should I prepare the 3 drops in about 450ml of water and have it for a week more?

You must prepare the Wet dose as prescribed as your current method can lead to aggravation as the worst scenario.

The Nat Phos and Arnica combination is absolutely safe to be used but as soon as your stomach stabilizes you can stop the NP.You will however continue to take the Arnica in just one dose for life as I have done nightly for the last 17 years.

You had mentioned IBS in your first post:
I suffer from an old IBS/constipation'

If you still do so please advice me for further instructions.

Thanks Joe for your replies.

My main problem is - (1st) as stated on 23rd and with added details on 28th i.e. slow clearing of bowels/stools (as I understand it is called IBS), leading to my going twice in the morning (2nd time after b'fast). This is more than 14yrs old and still exists.
(2nd) The dull pain around navel started about 3 weeks back and TODAY feel this has reduced by 90% i.e. only 10% pain remaining.

I presume, from your replies to date that the NP is for slow bowel and Arnica for the dull pain.
So am not clear when you say 'You will however continue to take the Arnica in just one dose for life'.
Would be good, for my clarity, if you can advise the purpose of taking NP and of taking Arnica in reference to my two problems (1st and 2nd).
I still have the IBS/slow bowel problem - would NP not help for this ?

Thanks,
Shashank

I can now see from your latest report that you do not suffer from Constipation but you do suffer from some form of IBS which impels you to have 4 motions daily. I presume that your stools are soft but not watery.

You can stop the Nat Phos but continue with the Arnica Wet dose.

Use my Match Stick therapy which is described below:

Take 2 Matches from a matchbox and light one.
Have the second match handy in your hand and light it from the first.
Dunk it immediately into a cupful of water so that it will light and extinguish itself in the water.
Repeat the same process twice with 2 sets of matches for best results.

You can drink a tablespoonful of the water from the cup every hour not to exceed 4 doses daily.

Hello Joe,

It shall be helpful if you can stop suggesting remedies to anyone.
You do not read my posts properly and suggest remedies and then decide it is not correct, while I have in trust started taking them.
Then you go onto some 'stupid' treatment method (Match Stick therapy) which cannot be called Homeopathic and expect someone to try this at own risk.
Please stop this.
