The ABC Homeopathy Forum

Insomniac

I am looking for some advice for my Mother.

she is 60 years old and for 15 years has suffered from insomnia and at times cronic. She also has high BP and cholesterol, which she takes medication for and takes an anti depressant for to cope with the lack of sleep.

1. She is fair hair and hazel eyes with a very senstive nature.
2. She had a tubal ligation 20 years ago and after that her sleep slowly got worse
3. She suffered constant heavy periods and finally diagnosed with fibroids and had a full hysterectomy 4 years ago.
4. She still suffers from menopausal symptoms like hot flushes and dryness.
5. She also craves sweets and this becomes a big problem when she can't sleep late at night.
From time to time she suffers from restless leg syndrome.

Her sleep: she is very active during the day so by 11pm she is tired and ready for bed but once her head hits the pillow she might sleep for 10 minutes and then she is awake until sometimes 3am and usually she sleeps after that, but sometimes it could be 6.

She has to get out of the bed as she is very restless and her body jumps. her feet and hands are hot and finds she is hot at nighttime.

Her diet is quiet good, bar the sugar.

I have read that Arnica could help with insomnia and BP which would be great.

Gladly answer any questions, but greatful for some suggestions.

Hi Candy,

It seems Phosphorus is indicated here.

To confirm, can you please answer these ?

1./) How sympathetic is she ?

2./) How does she feel from consolation ?

3./) Have you seen any dwindling in her love towards the family since these complaints began ?

4./) Is she irritable ? If yes, when ?

Sameer.

dear candy,

Please give your mother LACHESIS-1M ( single dose of 3 drops direct on tongue) and note the changes and report after a week.

Thank you for your replies.
My Mom is very sympathtic to other people but not in a feel their pain way.

She loves and needs consolation and attention. If she is lacking in alot of sleep she gets upset, which is natural. But could cry at night when she cant sleep. She is also extremely sensitive and craves attention. She doesn't like being on her own.

In relation to love for the family, her family is her life and her love never dwindles she lives off what is happening in our lives.

She can be moody and irratible, and very sensitive to what is said. Especially when her sleep is bad.

Also if she has any alcohol or eats late at night she is up all night and very uneasy.

Dear Candy,

Your replies just confirmed the choice of Phosphorus as was obvious from her restless legs and heavy bleeding from uterine fibroids.

Please give her 3 doses of Phosphorus 30C spaced equally for a single day. After that no more doses.

Report status 5 days after these doses.

Good luck,
Sameer.
