Zady,
Should I get the tablet form ( pellets) or the pill form ( globules )?
Also, do I need to give her the medicine directly on tongue or mix in water ? Does the morning dose have to be empty stomach?
All medications are taken differently in homeopathy, so I just want to check with you.
Also, I have a few Dr. Reckweg homeopathic medications ( liquid form) manufactured in the Year 2000, I got these from India. They don't have my expiry date on them. Could these medications still be effective?
Let me know.
Thank you,

These are cell salts. Taken directly on tongue. Pellets or tabs are both ok.

Zady,
I have been giving ferrum phos to Astha as you prescribed since 6/28/13.
She had one nose bleed in the morning on 6/30 and her nostril had dry blood on it this morning.
Other then that she seems stuffy these days. When she starts sneezing, she gets 6-7 sneezes in a row. Also, when she gets out of the pool after swimming she sneezes a lot.
Even on days when she doesn't seem stuffy and congested she brings out a lot of mucous from her nose when she sneezes.
Please let me know.

Zady,
I went to two homeopathic stores but did not find nitric acid. Is there another name for it?
I am still giving ferrum phos to Astha. So far, no more nose bleeds.
But she has been stuffy, especially early morning and in the evening. Her nose blocks when she lies down to sleep. She has been sneezing a lot to bring the mucous out. Her mucous is more white and transparent now.
Please recommend.
Thank you,

Hi,
Although the nose bleeds had stopped, but was she feeling any better?
Or she is feeling better now after nose bleed has reappeared?
Can she tolerate tight clothing around her Neck or Abdomen?

Zady,
Her nose bleeds did not affect her congestion. No matter whether she has nose bleeds or not, she get congested when she lies down on bed.
She is the same behavior wise, temperament wise, congestion wise with or without nose bleeds. She was definitely very happy that she did not have nose bleeds.
She prefers loose clothes. She cannot tolerate tight clothes around her neck, stomach, legs or arms.
Let me know if you need more info.

Zady,
She has pain at the root of her nose when she blows her nose after bleeding. Otherwise, she has never complained about any pain in her nose or on or above her eyebrows.
Sometimes she finds it hard to fall asleep at night and then asks me to rub her forehead for a while so that she can fall asleep.

Ok, please give her a single dose of phosphorus 30
♡ Zady101 last decade
Zady,
Is phosphorous for stuffiness or nose bleeds? Also, is phosphorous different from ferrum phos? I still have to get the medicine, so wanted to confirm.
Also these days, Astha is still stuffy ( but much less than the last two weeks). She hasn't had any nose bleeds in the last few days.
Please clarify.
