Hi Carmel,
I am sorry for the delay. I had an extremely heavy client workload last week and things have fallen a bit behind for me. I will be working on your case today and should have a suggestion for you fairly soon.

Did you take any of the remedies you mentioned? Your case strongly resembles Thuja, which is one of the (too many)remedies prescribed for you.
Actually could you tell me all the remedies you remember having and the results.

I have taken all the high potent remedies that I mentioned and they have had no impact on me. I was supposed to take Thuja 200 weekly but have not as I was waiting to see what you recommended. Also I was to take my constitutional weekly which I haven't taken.
I had Thuja 200 about a year ago with other remedies but did not help.
The remedies I have taken are
Ars Alb 200
Sepia 200
Pulsatilla 200 & 1M
arg nit 200 & 1M
Nat Mur 200 & 1M
Lachesis 200
Cimic 200 & 1M
Ignatia 200 and 10M
Thuja 200
Tub 1M
Kali Carb 200 & 1M
Aur Met 200
Staphysagria 200 which is the only one I seemed to get a little relief from for anger? But only had to take that for one week.

ok that is fine, I just wanted to check. Obviously people have gone through many of the obvious choices for you so I don't want to tread over those same paths again.
It looks like the search has only gone as far as polycrests though. Polycrests are the common remedies that practitioners tend to go to because they are well known. I on the other hand try to make sure I consider all the smaller remedies as well - there are over 10,000 of our medicines now.
Let me have a closer look at those kinds of remedies and I will let you know.

Ok. I have looked closely at your case again, and I have tried to get a feel for the 'essence' of your case.
The remedy I would like you to get is Cocculus indicus 200c.
I only want you to take a single dose to begin with. The remedy must be taken in water however. You should also get, or clean, a small bottle with a dropper or you can perhaps buy the remedy in liquid form rather than pellets/pillules.

ok thanks for that. If I buy the liquid what do I do? How many drops in how much water? I am only used to pillules.
Carmel last decade
Once the remedy is in liquid form, hit the bottle 3 times firmly against the palm of the hand, put 3 drops into 200ml of clean water, stir thoroughly and take 2 teaspoons into the mouth. That is one dose.
If you do get pellets, you will need to fill a small bottle with water and alcohol, to a ration of 5:1. Dissolve 5 pellets into this mixture. This will be your dosing bottle. A bottle with a dropper obviously.
You can use any spirit, as long as it is not mixed with something else (like milk, cream, chocolate etc). I usually use brandy or vodka.

List all your symptoms, and next to each one put either Better, Worse or Same.
If better or worse, put a % to represent how much you feel it has changed.
What alcohol did you mix it with? Where did you obtain the remedy from?

Bought the remedy from a Homeopath. Mixed it with Brandy as told by the Homeopath. Main symptom is waking up hot and anxious after dreaming. Eventually going back to sleep and dreaming some more. Waking up and feeling anxious with tightness in solar plexus. Tightness in solar plexus during the day. Really difficult to get motivated. All these symptoms are still 100%

Do you know where the homoeopath obtained the remedy?
I ask this because some homoeopaths use something they call a 'black box' to make remedies, and this does not make real remedies. I always check this just in case as obviously any remedy made this way won't work.
I really need a thorough follow up response to properly assess the reaction to the remedy. I prefer people do this themselves so that they think about each symptom, and it does take a lot of time so I am limited in how often I can do this here.
Because you have chosen not to show your case here, I have emailed you the list of symptoms I used to prescribe the remedy. Please assess your reaction using this list. Are happy to post it here or did you want to keep it to emails?

Hi E,
I got it from a reputable Homoeopath but I dont know where they get their remedies from. They have been there for about 20 years.
Can you please email the info to my private email.
I am having blood tests today for my thyroid. My Naturopath seems to think that this might be the problem. Would it make any difference in the remedy?

Carmel last decade
Not to the remedy, but it makes a big difference to the prognosis if you have a physical pathology causing some of the symptoms. This may also change the way I approach dosage and potency as well.
I have sent the email already.
Could you also check with the person you got the remedy from, as to where they bought it?

I have not received the email from you that you said you have already sent.
The remedies come from Martin & Pleasance. But she said she does not know where they source them from. Martin & Pleasance have been around for about 50 years.

That is fine, they are a reputable pharmacy so I am happy the remedy is a real one.
Ok according to the assessment you have given me there have actually been a number of improvements so far in various symptoms, all mental. This is a good sign, as change often happens higher up in the person before it occurs in the physicals.
What I would like to do is have you wait for another 5 days to see if the physical symptoms change. If not I am happy for you to repeat the remedy, but I would like you to check in with me first.
If there is continuing improvement I will probably ask you to wait a little longer. Our remedies are catalysts to change, and as such only need to be used to instigate or reinitiate that change. Once the change is happening we try to let it run on its own.

Hi E,
I have not recieved the bloodtest results for my thyroid as yet. But since we last spoke everything has been the same. The thing that is really bothering me is the waking up at 4am after having a stressful dream feeling very hot and anxious. I have had to resort to valium to go back to sleep but I wake up after one hour with the same problem.

Alright then it is appropriate to take another dose. Hit the bottle 10 times this time but otherwise do exactly the same as before.

Hi E,
It looks like I do have a thyroid problem. My anxiety is probably a result of the thyroid. I am still anxious in the morning. I am taking herbals now for my adrenals and thyroid, Selenium, and Phosphatidylserine. I am still feeling anxious about being around people and have the choking fear and now very worried about my health.
