Request you to give your valuable comments on my two posts

Quite a lot of problems is for my mother and Allergic rhinitis is for me.

Incase of time, please atleast give your views on my mothers problem.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
I have read your post with your mother's problems and I do agree with the other homeopaths who have more experience than I do all of whom have advised you to persuade your mother to change her dieterary habits. It is just the lack of balance in her food that is the cause of her problems.

I do hope that you will succeed in persuading your mother to eat more proteins and fruits and to stop all intake of coffee as it is already late in her life to do so.

The advice given by many homeopaths who have contributed to your thread is perhaps the best that you can possibly expect and I shall look forward to learing that she has turned a new page in her life and is following the advice given by many who have contributed.

In addition to the idea that eating better at least two homeopaths already suggested remedies for your mother. did you try either? Or at least read the materia medica on them to see how well they seemed to fit?

I am copying my post on your Allergic Rhinitis thread:

As far as I can see the many remedies that you have taken which were prescribed by many homeopaths have not been able to help your problem.

I would like to start with your wheeze which may be your problem which is manifesting itself in various ways. It can be helped with Nat Sulph 6c taken as follows:

Get a 500ml bottle of spring water
Pour out 100ml from the bottle.
Put in 3 pellets or 1 drop of the remedy into the bottle.
Bang the bottle hard on a cushion and watch for the water to fizzle like it does when you open a bottle of soda. This is called succussing and it must be done 4 times before every dose. This raises the potency of the remedy slightly.
Take 1 teaspoonful of the potentized water from the bottle and put it into half a cup of water. Stir it gently and sip one teaspoonful of the water from the cup.
This remedy should be used every other day as it works better this way.

Please stop all other medications you are now using and report back in a week.

Joe,

Will Nat Sulph help only in wheezing or will it address my nose block and uneasiness as well.

On the succussing technique, which you have been asking, I have some basic questions

1. How long can I keep the bottle water ?
2. Can I use a Aquafina or any bottled mineral water ?
3. After I sip one teaspoon ful of water , do I throw away the remaining ?

Please see my earlier reply for the subject "Allergic Rhinitis"

This is for my mother

She is completely out of coffee

She has so far taken 2 dose of Calc Ars as suggested by other homeopaths.


Since she has so many of those problems, I am concerned that only Calc Ars will help ? My specific questions are as follows :-


1. Can I give her Avena Sativa for her sleep as suggested by Rajiv Prasad ?

2. Can I give her Bryonia 30c (seen some old posts of yours) when she has terrible head ache
 
homeop1975 last decade
I believe that the Nat Sulph 6c taken in the Split Dose can help you in all your URT ailments and you may like to report to me in a week after you start on this therapy.

Keep the water in the fridge
You may use any bottled water
Throw away the balance in the cup
 
Joe De Livera last decade
It is important that your mother changes her food intake as suggested by all of us.

It is best not to mix remedies. Since you have already given her Calc Ars my advice is that she stays with it for a week and if it does not work, you can then think of a change.

I have not used Avena Sativa to promote sleep as I have discovered that Arnica is very good and what is more important, it is very safe in use.

I have used Bryonia for headaches and migraine and it is my own favourite remedy for this ailment. If she is in distress, you may give it to her in the dry dose and check how she responds
 
Joe De Livera last decade
Sorry one more question

When I take the water every day, do I need to add 3 pellets or 1 drop in the bottle.

Also my mother takes that remedy once a week only.
 
homeop1975 last decade
You do not have to renew the remedy in the bottle. When you put the remedy into the bottle and succuss it by banging it on your palm or a cushion it is potentized once and for all. It is the subsequent succussion before every dose that makes the remedy work more efficiently in comparison to the dry dose.

If your mother prefers to use the Arnica to help her to sleep you can use the same method described by me for you and use Arnica 6c in another bottle of water which must be labelled to avoid any mistakes in its use. Her dose can be 1 teaspoonful taken twice daily directly from the bottle, once in the morning and shortly before bed time, without the teaspoon stirred into the half cup method used in your case.
I believe that the Arnica will help her to overcome many of her problems. It is very safe to be used daily.

If she uses the Bryonia 30c for her headaches, she can take the dry dose of 4 pellets which she can place under her tongue as soon as she feels a headache coming on. The Bryonia usually aborts a headache within 15 minutes but if it does not do so for 2 hours, she may take another dose of 4 pellets. Please note that Bryonia may only be used if and when she feels a headache coming on.

Just to confirm my understanding for my mother

1. She continues to take Calc Ars once a week as suggested by Erika

2. She takes Bryonia 30c when she is about to get a head ache

3. She takes Arnica 6c twice every day
 
homeop1975 last decade
Your understanding of the therapy for your mother is correct.

I would like to emphasize one important however and that is that she must change her dietary habits for her own sake and take more protein with her food.
 
Joe De Livera last decade
Can lactating mothers take bryonia 30c when they have headache with nausea or vomitting ?
 
homeop1975 last decade
I would not like to take the responsibility of advising you on whether taking any homeopathic remedy can affect the baby when being breastfed.

I would prefer others who have more experience than me on this subject to please advise.
 
Joe De Livera last decade
I have not heard any replies from other homeopaths

On my mothers problem, she has been taking Arnica 6c and an improved diet for over a week. He is also on a protien health drink.

She has not seen any improvement in her sleep pattern and all her other problems also stays.

You had asked me to use 3 pellets for succussion, but our homeopathy pharmacy asked me to use 4 pellets for a dose. However I used only 3 pellets ?

What is the next step ?
 
homeop1975 last decade
Joe,

If you look at my earlier post, one reason I have told that she does not eat is because she complains that she is always full, especially in night and skips dinner for some reason

I read another insomnia issue where you have suggested Nat Phos as well ?

Your views please
 
homeop1975 last decade
Nat Phos 6x will help your mother with the fullness in her stomach. It will also help with her insomnia.

She can take 2 tablets Nat Phos after lunch and dinner and you can report results.

Have your persuaded her to eat more protein ?
 
Joe De Livera last decade
So she continues having Arnica 6c and Nat Phos 6c. What is 2 tablets is it 2 pellets ? I thought in India 4 pellets make one dose of 6c ?
 
homeop1975 last decade
Please do not confuse the potencies of the Homeopathic remedies that I have indicated.

How did you conclude that your mother can take Nat Phos 6c when all this time I have only referrred to Nat Phos 6x. ? There is a very big difference in the action of the same remedy in the 2 potencies 6x and 6c and she may only use the 6x.
 
Joe De Livera last decade
Joe,

Apologies, I see a problem after seeing a few more post which you have suggested the difference between 6c and 6x.

You have suggested to her Arnica 6c which is tablet for succussion, but what I got from a pharmacy is lactose balls which in your explanation is 6x.

Please clarify are the lactose balls 6x.
 
homeop1975 last decade
How do you expect me to know what you have got from your supplier ?
 
Joe De Livera last decade
I know I am confusing you,

I got for my mother Arnica 6c in small lactose balls. I trust that is alright.

for Nat Phos 6x you have suggested, I need to take this in tablet format.

Trust this is OK.
 
homeop1975 last decade
OK.

Report back in a week
 
Joe De Livera last decade
Request your advise on my Posting BITTER TASTE

Regards/Kunjukb
 
kunjukb last decade
She is taking Nat Phos 6x and she says she is feeling better with her stomach.

Do I continue this ? If then, how long ?

She complians that she is still not sleeping well ? Please advice ?
 
homeop1975 last decade
Your mother may continue with the Nat Phos 6x for as long as she feel that it is doing her some good. It is prefectly safe to be used daily but you can try reducing the dose from 2 tabs to just 1 after meals.

She would have noticed that her stomach empties quickly and as I diagnosed it was the stagnation of the food in the stomach that was the cause of her bitter taste.

I am glad that I was able to help you but for the record I would like you to list all the remedies that she is now taking. Also if she continues with her protein drink.
