The ABC Homeopathy Forum
How to take Ferrum Sidereum 10x
My holistic doctor has advised me to take this remedy.I am menopausal and suffer from anxiety and chronic insomnia, but the main reason he recommended it was for feeling ungrounded.
At times I feel odd, spacey and ungrounded.
I have obtained a 100ml bottle of liquid / drops but am unsure how much or how often to take it.
Also would I only take it when the ungrounded symptoms arise, or do a take a course and see how that goes?
thanks :-)

Hi-
What kind of Dr. is your 'holistic' dr??
Many naturopaths, chiropractors etc tell people to take
homeopathic remedies and they do not follow the rules of
homeopathic prescribing.
They act like these things are vitamins or herbs. The fact that
you got no instructions is a bad sign.
Homeopathy is prescribed on the principle ' like cures like'
Bc the body will not allow your original problem and a remedy
that matches your original problem. When you take a remedy
that is a close match ( a similar) the body reacts by raising
your life force to clear out imbalances-
Dosing is done by monitoring your reactions, when you aggravate
with existing symptoms or feel better right away- you wait to
see how long the dose lasted and what it actually did before you
take more.
Your case has not been taken in a homeopathic way-who knows
why this remedy was chosen- sounds like the 'holistic' person
feels you are ungrounded and thus 'iron' part of earth would make
you feel grounded to the earth-
You need your real homeopathic case taken and a remedy that matches
your physical, mental, emotional states and also matches what
makes it better and worse states.
If you click on your own forum name- your other thread will show up
where you posted and Evocationer put his form on for you. He is a
homeopath with a 20 year practice in Australia, that would be the
correct way to get a homeopathic remedy that 'matches' your state
and get supervision on dosing timetables per your individual reaction
to the remedy.

Hi Simone, thanks for your reply. I see an anthroposophical doctor from Germany.
I had every intentional of replying to Evocationer, its just that some of my anxiety and ungrounded symptoms are so subtle I have started recording them in a diary and once I have enough information I will respond.
The only thing which complicates everything is that my symptoms don't stay the same, especially the insomnia.
And also I am unsure whether to list all my symptoms for the anxiety,insomnia, menopause and ungroundedness all together or keep them separate.

Hi-you don't have to be that exacting-
You can make a list of each one.
Insomnia- when it began, what was going on when it began,
describe the insomnia ( I go to sleep, then wake up, or I can't go
to sleep bc of thoughts)
What sensations do you have with this- and where are they.
What helps make the insomnia better and what makes it worse.
Same thing for anxiety, menopause, ungrounded feeling.
Just fill out the form best you can, he will have his own additional
questions and symptoms from general anxiety do switch around
bc the nervous system can do a lot of strange sensations, and
the more anxious you get symptoms get even more random and
odd.
