Please, anyone who can give suggestion

Hi,

I will start by giving my main complaint.

About a week ago, I started having a cold sensation across the top of my head. It is more towards the front than the back. It is hard to describe, but I can relate it to the feeling of coldness like after a person washes her hair and does not dry it.

Here is some background that might aid in finding a solution. I am a female,
Gymnast
Healthy, besides tendonitis from gymnastics,
Vegetarian,
and no drinks with caffiene.
I am 5ft. 3in., and weigh 105.

I was taking Arnica for muscle injuries for about a month, started having allergy problems (resulting in sinus infections) due to the time of year and area I live in, so I stopped Arnica to take Silicea. Also I was suffering from extreme fatigue (work and not sleeping well from being sick). I took Silicea 30c once daily for about three weeks. I then started having mild headaches, which have occured before with other remedies even when they were providing relief.

Because I was not having allergy touble as much and not being as tired, also having the headaches which I thought could be from silicea, I started decreasing it. I am planning on taking it on thursday and then will take it once a week.

After I started to decrease silicea, is when I started to have this cold sensation. I was really worried about it, so today I went to a clinic doctor (I live in America). After inoffice examinations, he mostly could not explain my symptom, but he does not think it is anything extreme. He ruled it as stress headaches with this symptom to go with it, and that if it continues to get tests run until they find something. American doctors can run a lot of expensive tests.

Possibly it is something in the gym. In the gym I put my head under small physical stress occassionaly. I have one skill where a 50lb girl briefly puts one foot on my head to climb to another girl. I started that about a month ago and do it some each practice. This could be the cause, but when my symptom started I had not done this skill for about five days, and I have not done the skill since it started.

So can someone give me some suggestions on what is causing this, and should I be worried? The more I concentrate on the symptom the worse it seems to get, and when I am really busy I don't notice it as much. Should I have more tests?
Can someone tell me of another person having similar feeling?
Most important can someone give me a remedy and how to take it.


Thank you to everyone that replies.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Madam, most probably you might be caused with the wet hair having not dried to a moderate temperature. Therefore, you must take two-three drops of Bryonia 200 (a homoeopathic remedy) directly on your tongue early in the morning and take nothing for more than two hours. Repeat the same dose two days after then post your replying-result to us. I am sure you may get relaxed with it.

Hi,

Thank you for your response Dr. Kumar, but either you misunderstood me or I am misunderstanding you. I was comparing the cold sensation to "wet hair" this is not actually wet hair not being dried. I have this cold sensation on the top of my head throughout the day.

I saw on the Remedy Finder, on this site, descriptions like "icy", "as if cold air passed over brain", or "as of a cold spot" and others, but I did not think any of these exactly describe my symptom, so I tried to relate it to something else.

I don't think this could come from not drying my hair, I do dry my hair when it gets wet.

I noticed today, when I wake at first I cannot notice the symptom, it becomes noticeable after about an hour, keeps almost the same through the day, and gets even more noticeable at night.

If I misunderstood your reply please explain, I really would like advice for this.

Thank you.

Hi,

Of the descriptions from the Remedy Finder, what exactly is "as of a cold spot" describing?

If there were the description "as if cold air passed over top of head" was a choice, that would describe it well.

Thank you.

Madam, I misunderstood you. You are right at your point. You take 4 tablets of Calcarea Phos 6x at a time(a biochemic remedy) three times a day with lukewarm water. Silicea may follow this remedy well. Take one dose of Lachesis 200 two days before you start Calcarea phos 6x. Then inform us just after a week or two.

Hi,

Thank you both for giving me these remedies, I really appreciate it.

In the U.S. it is hard to find remedies sometimes. Dr. Kumar if I get these in another potency will it be at all useful? Do you want me to dissolve Clacarea phos in water, how much? should I put it in a bottle and shake before taking?

Santaclause (funny name haha) I have been a vegetarian 4 years, I like discussing the pros and cons. I always try to get nutrients from other foods (although I know meat is a better source of some stuff). I used to take vitamins, but when I took them I would not feel as well. But I do want to take vitamins, I think they can be very beneficial to vegetarians. No smoking ever.
I'm not completely sure stress is the cause, but it certainly could be. I worry about many things, but they are very small, common issues. I would describe myself as a cheerful person(who sometimes has emotional reactions).

Do either of you think I should discontinue the gymnastic skill that is decribed in the original post, or is it unrelated.

Really, thank you.

Madam, Calcarea Phos is a biochemic remedy that is easily available in 6x potency and Lachesis200 (a homoeopathic drug) is also available as well in every part of the world. Both these potencies are much easier to be availed. You ask for them confidently. As for as the question arises that how much lukewarm water should be taken with the medicine Calcarea phos 6x, you are suggested to take only two sips they are quite enough.

Hi,

Santaclause, yes I will think about the B complex vitamins. But I am interested in what you posted about taking vitamins for a long time not being healthy, are B complex vitamins included in this? If they are, do you still recommend them because they are so important (I agree they are really important).

Dr. Kumar, I am still a little unsure about your instruction (sorry).
Do you want me to put the tablets in the luke warm water (if so, is it 400ml?), or dissolve them under the tongue and then sip luke warm water.
Also, do you want tablets or pellets for Lachesis?
Is one dose of Lachesis five tablets/pellets.
I found Calcarea phos. 6x tablets, but for Lachesis I found 6c and 30c. I can order Lachesis 200.

Thank you.

You should take four tablets of Calcarea phos 6x and put them into your mouth and chewing all the tabs take a little sip of tepid (lukewarm)water to swallow it.
I think it is not hard to understand. You should avail Lachesis 200 in liquid form. Why are you interested to avail this medicine in globule-form(pellet-form)? Only two drops of this liquid is sufficient to drop them directly on your tongue. If you insist to take this remedy in pellets-form you may take a single dose of it, which contains 6-7 globules at least. Lachesis 30c might be taken in the lack of 200 potency. Better you avail its 200 potency that is to be taken once a week only.

Hi,

I understand how to take Calcarea phos now, thank you for your patience.

I will get Lachesis 200 in liquid form.

You had posted taking Lachesis two days before starting Calcarea phos, your last post "...200 potency that is to be taken once a week only". Which are you advising me to do?
Do I continue Lachesis when I start Calcarea phos?
Thank you Dr. Kumar.

Thank you.

Hi,

Are Lachesis and Lachesis Mutus they same?

Thank you.

Hi,

Are Lachesis and Lachesis Mutus the* same? *Typing error.

Thank you.
 
TLMaH last decade
I recommended the medicine "Lachesis" prepared from the poison of Surukuke snake of South America.

I never came across the medicine 'Lachesis Mustus'therefore, you try to avail Lachesis 200 or ask the drugist in this regard. You are advised to take two-three doses of Lachesis 200 first then try on Calcarea phos after having a gap for two days or more.
 
Dr Kumar last decade
Hi,

I ordered Lachesis 200, liquid dilution.

After taking the first dose of Lachesis, should I wait one week before taking the second?

Can I take Silicea any time while taking Lachesis (or Calcarea), or should I avoid taking them on the same day.

Thank you.
 
TLMaH last decade
Hi,

Thank you for all the advice you have given me, without it I would not know what remedies to take.

I have Lachesis 200 in liquid dilution and also pellet form.
The direction on the bottle follow "4 drops into a tsp. of water". You wanted me to put two drops on the tongue, do I put two drops from this mixture?

I have not taken liquid dilutions before, and I am unfamiliar with it.

Thank you.
 
TLMaH last decade
Madam, why do you want to take Silicea or Calcarea phos on the same day on which you are taking Lachesis200. You should have to maintain a gap or 24 hours at least with lachesis and other two remedies.

Only two drops of Lachesis 2oo are sufficient to be taken at a time whether you take them in a tea-spoonful water or directly on tongue.
 
Dr Kumar last decade
Hi,

I wanted to know if I should avoid taking them on the same day, because I am taking Silicea 1 time a week.

Thank you for your reply.
 
TLMaH last decade
Okay, you may carry on.
 
Dr Kumar last decade
But mind it that Silicea and Lachesis both the remedies should not be taken on the same day, otherwise, it might be disfavourable to you.
