Hi Everyone, Mine is a very difficult & 16 yr. old case of nasal polyps which have completely obstructed my both nostrils.For this I have been regularly taking homeopathic remedies for 16 yrs. prescribed by different homeopaths from Mother Tinctures to Very High Potencies of numerous medicines but in vain.Now a doctor says that no remedy would ever work on me because due to having taken so many remedies, I have devastated my body system.CAN ANYONE PL. HELP ME TO OVERCOME MY PROBLEM?BMALLICK on 2014-09-30
This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Dear rishimba, I have already undergone the nose surgery in 1998 but this too could not solve my problem.

Some questions...
1.Since when have you started washing your hands frequently? Is this something that was told and enforced on you by your parents when you were young? Or do have it as an unexplained obsession?
2. Do you have any suicides, murders, alcoholism, insanity or any untreated case of syphilis in your family?
3.Can you tell me the probable reason why you don't sleep well? What do you feel when you try to sleep?
4. What are your hobbies and what kind of books do you read?
5. Do you think these polyps were present during your childhood as well?
6. Do you remember the remedies you have tried out and in what potencies?
7. It seems you are very sensitive to disorder or unclean surroundings. What about your home and clothes? Do you get overly bothered if your home and clothes are untidy? Or is your need for perfection limited to your work?
8. How do you know your nasal block is connected to frequent washing of feet? Do you see any direct link in the two?

Dear rishimba thanks for your prompt reply.The answers of your questions are as follows:-
1.Since when have you started washing your hands frequently?Is this something that was told and enforced on you by your parents when you were young?Or do you have it as an unexplained obsession? Around 22-23 yrs. ago when I was in the starting of my teen age I developed the habit of washing feet and hands frequently.Though initially my mother would ask me to wash hands before meals as usual but later on, I developed it as an obsession.
2.Do you have any suicides,murders,alcoholism,insanity or any untreated case of syphilis in your family?
No.Not at all.
3.Can you tell me the probable reason why you don't sleep well?What do you feel when you try to sleep?
The first reason of my disturbed sleep is continuous nasal discharge and the second reason is too much dreams during sleep.When I try to sleep,my mind is full of so many past happenings or future plans.
4.What are your hobbies and what kind of books do you read?
My hobbies include listening to melodious music;keeping myself updated with the latest news of politics,technology and inventions;spending my leisure time in developing some technical/electrical/electronic project.I like to read all kind of informative books of any field-medical,political,historical,technological etc. and also like to read novels,story books.
5.Do you think these polyps were present during your childhood as well?
No.They weren't present in my childhood.
6.Do you remember the remedies you have tried out and in what potencies?
Though I don't know about all the remedies prescribed to me by different homeopaths but can tell the names of some remedies that I came to know about.Those are SILICEA,LYCO,PULS,CARBO VEG,TEUCRIUM,LEMNA MIN,BORAX,NAT MUR,THUJA,SULPHUR etc. and many of those ones whose names are not known to me.
7.It seems you are very sensitive to disorder or unclean surroundings.What about your home and clothes?Do you get overly bothered if your home and clothes untidy?Or is your need for perfection limited to your work only?
I like my home,clothes and surroundings to be clean.This cleanliness of mine is not only limited to my body or belongings but this is what which is even related to my spiritual level.Actually I want everything and everyone in the whole universe must be without any fault and drawback.
8.How do you know your nasal block is connected to frequent washing of feet?Do you see any direct link in the two?
Because this habit of washing feet frequently caused frequent nose cold and sneezing.

It will take some time for you to get cured and you will have to give me some time. A few remedies will be given in a certain order starting a nosode.
I will try to get you rid of this obsession of washing hands and feet first.
Take SYPHILINUM 1M one dose on a single day morning in empty stomach. No food or water for the next 2 hours.
Observe changes and keep notes.
Come back here for the next prescription after 15 days.

Dear rishimba, thanks for giving me your valuable time.I take Syphilinum.
BMALLICK 9 years ago
We cannot take a chance with 1M potency, so need you to get it from the best available manufacturer, preferably a German Make..Boiron or Reckeweg.
Also, one dose would be 3 or 4 drops of remedy in some 10 ml of water sipped up slowly in clean mouth and empty stomach on a single day early in the morning.
Go back to sleep for another 2 hours so that you allow the remedy to get absorbed.

Dear rishimba, I am once again joining you after Oct 04, 2014. As per your advice, I took a dose of 4 drops of Germany-made Syphilinum 1M empty stomach in the morning on Oct 11, 2014 and then I slept for 2 hours. Now, what I want to bring to your kind notice is just this that you asked me to record any changes. For, it has passed 10 days since I took the dose but I am unable to notice any change. So, please guide me how to discover these changes. Thanks.
BMALLICK 9 years ago
Syphilinum was given on the key-note symptom that you have a compulsive behavior of washing hands frequently.
Do you still wash hands frequently or you think this has changed slightly?
Once I hear from you, we will decide on the next remedy.

Dear rishimba,
To my last post, I want to add this too that there are some symptoms of mine which I have noticed :- 1.I feel a strange fear when I am alone both at night and in day time that some ghost or invisible power is behind me and this feeling causes me to turn back to l
look for the same power.
2.Though I am a cool minded person but sometimes I get too much angry even on petty issues. Apart from this, sometimes even a single little word hurts me very badly.
Thanks for your help.

Dear rishimba, thanks for your reply. But before taking Conium, I need your help to cure my fever. I had high fever last night from 1am to 5am. Now at 9am, it is 98.9°F. Currently, I am feeling a bit unwell and nauseated and have a kind of heaviness in my limbs. The reason of the fever, to my mind, seems exposer to cold. So, pl. suggest some remedy for it.
With best regards.

I need to know all your general symptoms and exact sufferings to zero in on the right remedy for fever. There is no single remedy for fever. All depends on your peculiar symptoms.
I suggest you wait for your fever to get over and then start homeopathic treatment with Conium.

Dear rishimba, firstly accept my belated good wishes for a happy new year. As you advised me in your last post on 9-12-2014 to take 3 doses of Conium 1M, I took the first dose on 10-12-2014, second on 26-12-2014 and the third one on 10-01-2015. Now after 15 days of the last dose, I have been feeling that my sneezing and nasal swelling are reduced a bit. And nasal discharge is also reduced a way bit. But rest is the same. So, pl. advise me. Secondly, I want to seek your valuable suggestion even for my 12 year old daughter who has been suffering almost the same kind of nose obstruction problem for the past one and half year. Her problem started just after she had recovered from a spell of chicken pox in June 2013. Since then many homeopathic remedies like Pulsatilla 30/200, Nux Vom 30/1M, Lemna Q/30/200, Teucrium Q and some others have been prescribed to her. Only Pulsatilla gave her some relief but that too wasn't permanent. The description of her personality and her problem is as below:- She is 5 feet tall, thin, slim, delicate, weight- 35Kg, sympathetic, loving, caring, helping, friendly, intelligent, dedicated towards study, loves to go to school, etc. As for her problem, her nose gets blocked in a closed room and when going to sleep. She feels relieved outdoor. She sneezes as soon as she wakes up and comes out of her bed. She sneezes when she takes off her cloths. In a warm room her problem of nose blockage increases. So pl. help me by suggesting some remedy for her as well.
Thanks and best regards.
Thanks and best regards.

For your daughter, please give her full case as you have given yours earlier. Only after that I would be able to find the right remedy. With this limited information, Pulsatilla seems to be fitting with her generals. But because some of the modalities are not matching, it may not work in the long run.
For you, its good to know CONIUM produced the right response. You can continue in this potency, once in 15 days and continue the treatment. If it stops working, go a step higher and take 10M potency single dose.
