Dear Molly,
Sorry for the late reply.I had been busy and missed your post.It seems you have antidoted the remedy with coffee.Because if you were feeling great a short while back and suddenly it has changed and you say you have taken a lot of coffee lately, then that must be the reason.So, stop taking coffee till the treatment lasts to be on the safe side.There are instances where people have been cured with homeopathy and then they have taken coffee two years later and the symptoms relapsed.It does not happen with everyone but with those who are more susceptible to coffee.Susceptibility increases with increase in intake of coffee.
So, repeat the remedy on three successive days after 10 succussions each time and stop the coffee and then see what happens.Only then would i be able to judge what is happening.

yes i will do that.really i haven`t been feeling `great`because i`ve had the return of so many symptoms.there has been maybe a week where i felt``different` and energetic and lively but really that has not come back in a long time,but i will not touch coffee even though i love it!

hi there,
i took the dose yesterday and today as you said but i`ve been worse than usual-tired,heavy legs,backache,anti-social,craving for alcohol,burping on train..
but maybe i should tell you about something which is a daily struggle to me -my mother in law -she makes me feel powerles and trapped.she wants to be so involved in my family that i feel i have to run away and hide and i do ,i dont answer her calls and avoid her house but then after i feel mean and cruel because i know she justs wants to be with her grandchildren.i struggle constantly with drawing the line with what i want and what is normal here,i try to have respect but also keep my own life.hard but this is my major conflict,i feel if she wasn`t here i would be free.
i didn`t go to work today because i felt so tireed and lazy.tomorrow i must take the remedy again and wait and see but i feel the usual powerlessness back again .

This tiredness and lazy feeling is because you have antidoted the remedy's earlier doses.The fresh doses will need some time to kick in.Why don't you talk with your mother-in-law to clarify what is it that disturbs you.

yes,i have told her and leave my kids with her 2 days a week to keep her happy but it`s not enough-this is a culture and personality clash!i just want the strength to follow through my decisions and rationalise my behavour x<

HI,sorry for all the moaning before,i think i see a pattern - the few days before my period i feel extra tired,i probably didn`t notice before and the coffee too affected me last week.well i`m getting my energy back again,i`m getting projects done at least.i know i have to be patient but i think i expected a continual increase in energy etc and not an up and down effect .x
mollydalton last decade
Its all right.You cannot have a continual improvement because in a chronic case old symptoms which are no longer there would keep coming back to trouble you from time to time.But the key thing to note is whether they resolve on their own or not in a few days.If they do, as has been happening in your case, it is the sign of a correct remedy.

hi,how are things?i am improving now since last week,definately in better form and energy.i amde a realisation yesterday too -while on the train i sat beside a girl with loads of perfume and make-up and it made me nauseus and i strted a bout of burping -i thought before trains aggravate the burping but it could be thoses smells,i hate them for thatr eason i don`t ever wear either.i felt better when i got out in the fresh air.
another thing -ronan has gone back to wetting the bed,now 3 nights,he even wet himself when we were walking home from school and scalded his legs,he was very upset,he told the teacher he needed to go but she said it was too late): .he wet the bed when woody was born a year ago so i put it down to jaelousy and that could be it now too as woody is drawing alot of attention everywhere we go,anyway i am stopping drinks in the evening and go before bed to see how he gets on .xxxxxx

hi,how are things?iam imroving mood and energy wise so that is good.yesterday i made an observation-i was on the train and i sat beside a girl wearing loads of make-up and perfume and i started to feel sick and then started a bout of burping.i hate those smells and for that reason i never wear either.i thought train rides aggravated my burping and nausea but maybe its strong smells.
another thing -ronan has strted wetting the bed again lately,he even wet himself when we were walking from school ,he scalded his legs and was very upset.he said he asked the teacher could he go but she said it was too late(:
he wet the bed before whwn woody was born a year ago and i put it down to jealousy and maybe he is jealous agin as woody draws alot of attention.anyway i am taking away drinks in the evening xxxxxxxx

hi,since not taking coffee my energy and mood id still better but constipation continues to be the norm,itry to wait as long as i can before intervening which is usually 5 days ,occassional burping but very improved.

Dear Molly,
I think it is now time to give a detailed update.How has Staphysagria affected your mental symptoms?Do you feel more confident now dealing with people?Do you still bottle your emotions up or express them more freely?What about the piles, back ache and other troubling old symptoms that had come earlier.Have they resolved or are still troubling you?

ok let me think,since stopping the coffee i do feel i have more energy.in the time i have been taking the remedy there were a few days when i felt great mentally,a feeling of `alive`but this feeling didn`t stay and as i had old symptoms i felt weak again.the real test for me will be going in the car,it is being fixed at the moment and when it is i hope to go out and practice everyday and if i am not scared stiff then i`d say i ahve improved. physical symptoms have improved except for the bowel movements,i have no desire to go for too long and then i must strain(before i had a colonoscopy and was told my colon was very long!)this symptom effects me as i don`t feel normal,it should be such a normal bodily function but for me it is not a function at all.my back is much better,maybe before a period it annoys me but i don`t have to take anything.pilesare not noticable from the outside.burping comes still on trains and if i feel nausea from stuffy perfume rooms and trains,fresh air relieves it.i have a crown(cap) as a front tooth that bleeds constantly,the dentist says it will ahve to be changed but can`t afford it at the moment.in general i think there is improvement but slow .xxxx
mollydalton last decade
Well, in a chronic case of years standing such as yours, a slow but steady improvement is what one can hope for.You did not answer one very important question though.Staphysagria is known to help people assert themselves and lets them express themselves more freely.Thsi very often brings about a realignment in the power equations in close relationships.For example, your problems with your mother -i-law.Are you now able to express your feelings to her when you feel miffed or angry with her poking in your space?Or you still bottle up your feelings while dealing with people.
A thumb rule is that it takes as many months of homeopathic treatment for a full cure as the number of years for which a person has been ill.In modern city life, almost everyone is carrying some inherited illness.Since, many of my patients are close friends or relatives, they keep on taking treatment from me for years together.And they keep improving constantly.Some of them have been on treatment for 3-4 years.I told you about my wife.And all of them stick because they have experienced a quantum jump in the level of their health and well being over the course of the treatment.
So, patience and trust in your homeopath is a key requirement for long term successful treatment in a chronic case.As long as you keep improving it means we are on the right track.

well this might answer the question,my mother in law has the flu at the moment and i have rang her this morning and last night to ask her how she is,alot of times i would not have rang her out of spite.basically we are not best friends and a remedy can not change that but am doing the right thing and therfore not suffering guilt.yes i think i can express somewhat better myself when needed,as i said the car is my personal big test.thanks rajiv for all xxxxx

goodmorning rajiv,i am worried about ronan,he is wetting the bed everynight now no matter what he drinks.he is also tearful over silly things like if playing football and i get a goal and not him!when his grandmother tried to console him by going close and touching him he hit her 2 days.he ahd bronchitis last week and cough again,he vomitede from coughing,today he said he had a sore throat.i think underneath it all he is jealous of his brother.
mollydalton last decade
Dear Molly,
Sorry for the late reply.I have been away for the last week.To be able to help Ronan, you would need to give complete details of his case since his birth.What according to you has triggered this bed wetting problem?Why do you suspect that jealousy for his brother is the cause?What are the strange things that you have noticed in his behaviour towards his brother?Also describe all his illnesses since birth and his temperament in detail.

yes i will give a detailed account this afternoon.can we relieve the accute sore throat first so he can go to school?
mollydalton last decade
ok,i can do it now,woody is gone to sleep!
ronan was born on the 30th november 2001,2 days late but normal birth.he was breast fed till 8 months.at 4 monthsi noticed he found it difficult to breast feed,he had otitis so had his first anti-biotic then.as a baby had otitis many times,then not for years and again recently pin in his ear.
he had lots of bronchitis with fever,always with anti-biotic and aldobroncial.when big enough he started on inhaler.
at 2 he had 2 weeks of night terrors(screaming and shouting in the night ,nothing can console him) and tantrums in the days.this stopped itself.
when his brother was born he started wetting the bed,we expected this as every parent knows it is a cry for attention but it stopped itself after awhile,didn`t make big deal of it.he started tantrums again and said`i don`t want you to be my mammy anymore cause you don`t love me anymore`.when his brother was 5 months ronan went into hospital twice in one month with bronchitis and asthma(i had to sleep in hospital with him with no baby!)we brough him to a specialist but he has no allergies.
his bronchitis has improved but in winter he catches colds,coughs,sore throats.
peculiar things -the tooth between his front one and canine is split or double on the top and bottom.
he won`t eat any thing round - peas,corn ,olives..
really good at computers.
loves fish,prawns,anchovies..
love lemon drinks.
hates loud noises especially fireworks(cries) and dog barking,puts his hands over his ears.
personality -he is very mature for his age,easy to expalin things to him.
negociates things he wants.
very sensitive,cries at films and doesn`t like being given out to.
loves sport,very brave and skilled at rugby.
loves school.
speaks 3 languages.
good and noble,acts different in grandmothers as she spoils him and gives hm everything.
sometimes meloncholic.
physical - tall and very pale skin,dark circles under eyes.
tongue - white coated but pink patch in middle.
i gave him a few doses of lycopodium an dhe is a little improved,didn`t wet bed in 2 days,throat still swollen but not so sore.

If Lycopodium has helped then wait for it to exhaust its action.It is a very deep and long acting remedy.One should not rush in with other remedies when Lycopodium is still working.I am very busy for next few weeks.Would look into your son's case after submitting my dissertation in a few weeks time.

ronan -yesterday he came home with a fever so i gave him 1 dose of belladonna.he slept through the night with no fever and he is starting to speak more normal which makes me think the inflammation is going down.
now me ,just thought i should mention something-before the remedy and during i have had a patch of dry ,broken skin on my left foot,under my ankle bone.it is not itchy but when it gets very dry it cracks and sometimes is a little sore,but it`s ugly,now recently another patch but smaller has started on the same foot but on the inside under my ankle bone.
feeling good except for back and constipation.the car is still broken but i am strangley feeling excited about going places in it,lets see if that really happens!!
worried about my mother,her cancer is very rare and ireland in not equipped .xxxxx

Dear Molly,
Eruptions on the skin with a simultaneous improvement in your inner feelings is a most encouraging sign as it shows that the disease is moving from inner more vital layers to the outermost layer.Don't worry about ugliness etc.These modern notions have kept people bound to their illness.Sometimes one has to make a choice between looking good and cure from within.Any way this skin ailment is not permanent.It will heal on its own after a while.
Regardng your mother, i am sorry to learn about her illness and wish her all the best.But there is nothing else that i can dd from such a great distance.It needs close monitoring and supervision of a very skilled homeopath.

hello rajiv,i`ve just hugely dissapointed myself.i decided yesterday that i would start practising in the car for half an hour everyday just around the town to build up my confidence but today at the garage door i turned away intears.all morning i was getting myself ready but as i left the house i started to feel the signs of anxiety,fear...my bowels sank and i had to go to loo and my heart began to pound..but i pushed myself and was at the door of garage ready to go go but the road our of the garage is very narrow and at that moment 2 trucks met face to face and got stuck and started beeping etc,s i imagined i could not get out of that situation and gave up.i know that when i leave the garage the circumstances would always be different but i couldn`t do it.now i am ashamed and sad and feel stupid.i think i need more than a remedy,why is this so hard for me x

i was trying to rationalise what i fell when i want or have to go in the car.what exactly am i afraid of?i feel very exposed and out in the open for everyone to see me.i feel everyone can see how nervous i am and are making fun of me or angry with me foir making a mistake.i prefer driving by night whrere i am anonymous.
i am scared to cause or be in an accident.
i fear un known situations,i anticipate trouble -parking,changing lanes etc with most people this comes with practice but i find the getting practice very difficult.i feel emarassed when friends come to the air`port snd i make an excuse not to collect them or send my husband.
i won`t give up.i`ll get my husband t come with me at weekend.
