Need Help with Chronic Stomach Issues, Please!

Hi there! I'm looking for advice on my current homeopathic treatment.
I've decided to stop the treatment and seek some help. My original concern was a fear of being over dosed. The homeopath gave me one dose of Pulsatilla 200c which caused a lot of aggrivation. Following that, she set out a course of treatment as follows:
Phosphorous 200c - One single dose of 4 pellets.
I was to wait 4 days an on the 5th day:
Calc Sulph 6x, Twice a day to be repeated for 8 days and then alternate days for a month. As well as:
Nux-V 200c, Once a day to be repeated the same as the Calc.

I took 3 doses of the Calc Sulph and 1 dose of the Nux. The calc didn't do much at all but the nux made me frantic and worried, I couldn't sleep the enitre night worrying about things that really shouldn't matter. That's not me. When I got up in the morning I felt really alter (too much so) and impatient, annoyed and over burdened. So that brings me here.

Thank you in advance to anyone who can help!

33/F/Widowed 5’9 140lbs Canada Seasonal-Climate
Non Diabetic, Crave Sweets (especially at night) , like salt, dislike sour. Drink about 1 gallon of water a day, very thirsty alternating with not thirsty at all (no pattern I can tell). Normal blood pressure (don’t know the figure)
I come from a single parent home, no siblings. History of heart disease, various c*ncers and diabetes.
I’m self-employed with a few college courses. I finished highschool. My job entails helping people get started in new directions in their lives. I love it!
Complaints:
The Vast Majority of Foods Irritate Me (2 years): I have to eat food on a rotational basis, if I consume too much of one food (say eat it regularly for a couple of weeks) I develop an intolerance. Then when I eat it, it will cause bloating, sometimes constipation, sometimes heartburn, fluid retention, eczema or headaches. It’s gotten to a point where I have to monitor every bite I put in my mouth and when a reaction does happen it will last for weeks and a whole host of foods will be absolutely out of the question.
Headaches (20 years): The headaches are in both of my temples and along the side of my face. They start on the right side usually. They’ll move into my forehead and sometimes make my neck stiff and other times make my jaw hurt and my eyes ache. I get light sensitive with the eye aching. Sounds don’t bother me, but bending over or standing up will make the pain shoot through my head. I take feverfew when this happens and it helps. A nap will also make it go away and makes me feel better since my eyes get very tired.
Heartburn (always had them to some degree, now only when I eat the wrong thing): It will cause an aching in my stomach that won’t let me stand up for long periods of time, I just want to be slumped over. It makes me nauseated and will burn up into my chest, but it won’t come up into my throat or mouth. Nothing seems to relieve this.
Bloating (3 years): When I bloat everything else on me gets skinny. My stomach will protrude several inches from the bottom of my ribcage to my hip bones, but my ankles and wrists will get much tinier. Also when I bloat, I can’t seem to stop eating, it’s like my body is needing an endless supply of food. The bloating is hard and muscly and will wrap around to the back of me making two little pockets of fat on my back near my hips.
Eczema (5 years): When this starts it takes months to clear. The skin on the inside of my ears will get moist (smelling like vinegar and being watery) and itchy, then it will peel off. When this happens it sometimes gets to itchy it will bleed and that increases the fluid in my ears. When that happens sometimes it will turn into an infection that makes my outer ear hot and red and the inner ear burning, itching and sopping wet.
Bowels(never been normal): I tend to get sticky diarrhea followed by hard balls. Some days pass with no urge at all while others will be spent with multiple urges. There are healthy stools in between.
General Things of Note: I have a tendency to get sick when I get really warm. I’ll get dizzy and almost pass out from a hot bath. I tend to have a lot of different blotches and makes on my skin. When I get cold, I can’t get warm and a hot bath will help that, but then it makes me sick. My problems usually affect both sides or either side, one isn’t really dominant. I have cysts on my feet and arms. My hands swell during exercise and so do my feet. I tend to clench my jaw in my sleep when I’m stressed, which isn’t too often.

Mind & Behavior: I can get pretty hurried during crazy times at work, but I’m generally relaxed. I’m pretty bubbly and I love meeting new people although sometimes I end up feeling a little inferior to them. I had to work hard to be social though and when I’m sick I tend to revert back to where I’m most comfortable which is by myself, inside, reading or surfing the internet or catching up on paperwork. So being social doesn’t really come naturally. I’m pretty creative (I paint in my spare time) and like I said, I lean to being an introvert, however I know that isn’t good for you. I have a hard time asking others for help and I have a hard time accepting compliments however, I love to take care of people and feel needed. I give lots of love freely, but I find it hard to give it long term or romantically.
At the moment I feel like I can’t win. I’m starting to feel like my body is entirely out of whack and it might be hopeless to wish for anything else, but I keep searching because I know there’s something that’s going to help (I’m ridiculously optimistic in all areas of my life). I would just like to sit down for a meal with friends and not have to worry about what I’m about to eat and if it’s going to cause days of not feeling well. I feel like I’m being dragged down by it.
Menstrual History: I get spotting occasionally but just a hint. I have Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome. I’ve been checked over and the doc says there’s no structural problem, so he said I’m probably just not ovulating regularly. It’s been about a year now since my last period, I suppose.

I’ve taken Pulsatilla 200c, Nux-V 200c (aggravation from both) Sulphur 30c (once about 3 weeks ago as per homeopaths suggestion for a headache, it worked wonders!) Phosphorous 200c (no reaction) and Calc Sulph 6x (no reaction)
I take a probiotic daily, cayenne pepper for headaches or feverfew (only occasionally), Goldenseal for my eczema if it gets too out of control (which works like a charm for a few days)

Thank you SO very much!
