Not sure if I should Switch Homeopathic Dr!

I've been seeing a wonderful dr for almost two years (this oct. will be 2 yrs) who lives near me and who has helped me I think.

The reason why I say I think is because I take medications for bipolar/borderline and at one time was able to get off of all of them for one year (after taking mercury out of my mouth so it could have been a placebo effect) then had a complete relapse.

With this dr i was able to drop about 500mg of medication but all of a sudden last month I had a relapse where I couldn't sleep at all, so I had to up my meds about 25mg. I realize my case is hard since I'm on three different meds for deprssion/borderline and thyroid meds.

I got in touch with another doc who has more advanced training. In fact my homeopath is really cool that i mentioned that i'm switching and says he knows her but she is in the city and isnt returning my calls. I only spoke to her secretary and I have a strong feeling that she won't be supportive like my old homeopath who answers my e-mails and my calls when I need him to.

The New homeopath also only sees patients for 1/2 for follow-up visits as opposed to my current one who sees me until he has all the info he needs!
Anther reason why I wanted to switch is because my current dr never dilutes pellets and has me take them everyday and i read that that sometimes aggravates symptoms. I also read that the advanced organon 6 is to dilute it and shake it (succucios not sure of spelling).

any advice would be welcome. I also have problems with constipation which has not gotten better at all and menstrual problems too.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Why don't you list your ailments in detail on this forum and let the experts here try to help you ?

I have not treated Bipolar Disorder myself but I am sure that others have done so and can perhaps help you.

I note that you complain of constipation and the remedy is Nat Phos 6x which you can take 3 tablets after each meal and this should help you overnight. Reduce the dosage to 2 tablets when you are comfortable. This remedy will also reduce your weight at about 1-2 pounds per week.

sorry but I really wasn't looking to be treated over the internet.
What I was asking is whether I should switch drs. given how they work differently (short follow-ups, is 1/2 hour too short?) and my lack of progress within 9 months as far as not getting off more medication (but I am getting to sleep earlier).

My constipation is not the normal constipation where I go sometimes. i have absolutely NO PERISTALSIS and have to rely on enemas. I do not want to take something ONLY for constipation. I'm looking for one remedy for everything, but again, not to be treated over the net.
