Hiya Sameer
I am reporting back as you asked.
Two days after taking the 10m Arnica I had the most awful anxiety attack. I felt that I couldn't go out of the house and felt totally useless and incapable and wondered where my confidence and outgoing personality had gone. I was in such an anxious state I didn't know where to turn it depressed me. The next day I was much better but it was a few days before the anxiety settled down, tho I always have underlying anxiety these days. A couple of days after that my neck, the back of my head was painful in a way I can't describe except to say it was a hard sort of pain and the hissing in my ear, which is always there more when my neck is bad got worse. The top of my spine eased after the first dose of Arnica (1m) but has gradually returned and I am doing exercises for my neck and back again.The complaints don't stop me from doing things but I may get worse after. For example, after looking up for a long time I may get vertigo or bending forward gardening or sitting at a desk can make the top of my spine worse. I generally feel better after physical exercise until the after effects start. Standing is better for me than sitting.
When I had the anxiety attack all sorts of things went through my mind as I was searching for a reason as things at home were calmer so there didn't seem a good reason for such an acute reaction unless it was the Arnica.
I realised that I was an anxious child as I never felt loved by my parents.
I married and felt better for a time, even though my husband was jealous and violent and I think it was because I felt more in control and freer for a while. I also had what I always wanted, a family. However after several years and three children life became more oppressive and I became fearful for my life and I divorced my husband.
As I was so fearful of my life I was very anxious and depressed for a while, then, although I was always feeling insecure because of money worries I started to feel better. Life was very hard but I made a good life and was very sociable and had many friends. Anyone was welcome to my house. It was a constantly open door.I could at last be myself.
After a few years I wanted to settle down again with a husband and looked for a man who would love home life and family.
I met someone who was so insecure I gave up my friends for him so we could make new friends together, but we never did. I gave up a good job for him and sold my home to have a new start.I put all my trust in him. We split for family reasons and I had a nervous breakdown. I had trusted him and so gave up my independence for him.He expected more from me than I could give and my children were suffering.
A few years later we got together again and married.
3or 4 years ago he had a mental breakdown due to his employment and did some terrible things which he can't remember tho I can.
He left for a while and came back home when he started to feel better but he has changed. Life is very difficult, he is unreasonable and has rages. He makes it difficult for me to see my children as often as I would like and makes me on edge because I never know when he is going to have another rage.He isn't violent but I feel that he could be if his rages get any worse.
Then I realised that since we married he has had mental problems, but because I was so understanding I just tried to please him and didn't judge. I now feel under his control.I now realise that despite my hard upbringing and failed first marriage, my anxiety, lack of confidence in my ability and many fears have really become a problem gradually over the years with my husband. It is brought to a head since his continued bad treatment of me since his mental breakdown.
I would like to leave but it isn't possible. I have no job, I gave it up and spent time helping him to get better and also I needed a rest myself. I don't have the confidence to do anything now and I am so stressed. I get dreadful apprehension when I have to go anywhere, even the shops. I feel isolated and lonely.
I even feel uneasy in the dark as if some evil is around.I would have no where to go and selling our home wouldn't buy two. My husband, who is very good to me when in a good mood says he would fight me for everything when he is in a bad mood and being a Christian now, I couldn't live with myself if I divorced.
I realise that my physical problems may be worse because of the stress.
Do you think I maybe need something for the stress first?
Sometimes I think that I'm too sensitive because I can sense a change in the weather.In the Autumn I get up one day with anxiety in my stomach just before the season changes. Even in summer, dull days make me feel low. I can't stand too cold or too hot temperatures either. Also, I can sense an atmosphere when people are troubled and it bothers me.
I hope I haven't gone on too long but I think I am maybe expecting too much.
Thank you

It is clear that you do not need any more of Arnica.
So, has the aggravation of anxiety after the 10M dose gone away now , or is it still there ?

It is not as acute as it was but I feel it has made me more aware of my general anxiety which I don't want anymore. I am anxious because I don't want these feelings anymore. I have become aware that my life is being ruined because of these feelings. I want to become strong again.

Take a single dose of Aconite 6C, and then let me know in 2 days if you feel better. We are trying to anti-dote the Arnica a bit.
In the meanwhile, I will try to find the remedy from the information you have given above over the next couple of days and will ask you questions if needed.

Hiya Sameer,
I suppose the feelings are still there but much milder.
After I e mailed you last night my husband had extra drink in secret and it stresses me because altho he doesn't get drunk anymore the bad memories scare me, so I went to bed anxious and so I feel a little down this morning but not too bad at all. I still feel a bit anxious at the thought of going out but I'm not agrophobic.I think it's more lack of confidence and shame because I worry people have heard the terrible rows we have had recently. I don't like to shout. Having said all that I feel much better thank you. I feel the anxiety in the top of my stomach and chest. I suppose the feeling in my chest is more like emotional pain.
I hope I have answered your question adaquately. Thank you.

Hiya Sameer,
Am replying to your questions.
1.I feel sympathy for others so long as they try to help themselves. I can be critical and impatient if someone would rather take a pill for example as an easy way out or don't find out as much as possible about an illness. I always try and put myself in a person's position and so can become very uneasy at some peoples suffering.I get very disturbed when I hear of wars, torture and famine, sometimes a feeling of fear. I hate injustice and in the past have spoken up for people and have then found myself in trouble. I always offer help to people but won't push myself. I worry about my childrens problems.
2 My intuition is strong. I rarely trust it and then find that my feelings were right all along. I want to see good in people so make allowances until I find otherwise. If I have uneasy feelings about someone I try to give them a chance and I believe that if I don't take to something I should try and give it another try. Usually my first impressions are right tho.
3 I feel a nuisance altho I sometimes wish I could take consolation. I can talk about my problems but can't take pity. I think it's because I have always been the strong, reliable one in the past.At least on the surface. My neighbour says she doesn't know how I can keep smiling when I have problems, but I don't smile in private.
I don't respond to reassurance. I have my own ideas in my head.
4 Altho I can sense a thunderstorm and have a slightly fluttery stomach, I don't feel too bad about thunder particularly. I don't like low light levels and hate artificial light. I don't like the orangy colour.Until I finished work I had a SAD lightbox because I never saw daylight 5 days of the week and was stressed because I was constantly tired and exhausted. Strong winds make me feel anxious at night.I hope the tree nearby doesn't get blown onto our house. There is no reason why it should. Heavy rain makes me feel unsettled and I think about people having their homes flooded.
At the end of the summer, I get up one morning and I have an anxious feeling in my stomach and within a few days the signs of a change in the season occur. Sometimes, even on the same day I notice condensation inside the parked cars and know that the season is changed.I get more anxious as spring comes in but in a different way. I get very restless.
I love looking at the sky and think it's beautiful but sometimes if I sense stormy clouds I have butterflies in my stomach.
Even in summer, when the weather is dull I feel a bit low. If it's dull in the morning I take longer to get going and if it is sunny in the morning and dull in the afternoon I can feel myself changing.
5 I don't see faces in the dark but I have a fear of it. I tell myself God would protect me if I did. I just sometimes have a sense that something evil is around. I don't believe in ghosts but believe that there are evil spirits as well as good. I tell myself that it is my imagination. I feel embarrased about it. It usually happens maybe midnight or later when I am alone. Sometimes when I wake in the night I lie there rather than get out of bed.I know that the house has it's own noises as any house but at night i feel anxious about them, but I tell myself to read or do housework or something to occupy my mind but I can't concentrate because I don't like the artificial light. I dream rarely but if I do I have a bad dream which I usually can't remember. As a child I had a dream where I was with my mother and her friend in our kitchen. It was night time and as I looked out of the window there were these evil creatures like goblins trying to get in. I don't know why I remember it.
6 Yes. I could sacrifice for my family, more if I could. My family aren't my husband's and he can't grasp that I want to help my children and would go without for them. I am sad that I can't give them as much as I would like to in any way. He has children but he isn't as close as I think he should be.
7 I am not an angry person deep down, but when I get angry I hate myself because I tend to say more than I should even though it's the truth. I suppose I can be cruel. Sometimes things are better left unsaid in angry circumstances. I feel frustration more than anger for myself but it sometimes comes out as anger. I feel anger on behalf of others mainly.
Really I think that anger is usually unfruitful and the physical feelings and feelings of regret are horrid. I do believe there is such a thing as righteous anger.
8 I don't really get excited anymore. I feel pleased about things but can't seem to get excited. I think that it's something that happens as you get older or it's because of disappointments. For example, my daughter is getting married this year. I am so relieved that she has found someone nice but as well as the relief I have an underlying anxiety instead of excitement. I don't have to worry about arrangements as my daughter is planning her own and it is to be very simple.
9 When I am out I will speak to any stranger about anything and someone once said that people are drawn to me as I am easy to talk to. I recently changed churches and to my amazement many people have told me that I am missed. I am nervous about actually PLANNING to meet new people socially and sometimes refuse to go and yet I nearly always mix well. I know that I will feel awkward with some people as that's life. If I am forced to sit next to someone strange, say at a meal I don't like that. I feel trapped. I am an open, chatty person usually.
I hope I have answered your questions fully Sameer.
Thank you.

Serann,
Thanks for the detailed replies. I can clearly see that you are a Phosphorus by constitution, but there is some layer which we need to address before reaching to Phosphorus.
Now, I would like you to make a list of your physical symptoms. (A sort of bullet list of the current physical symptoms where each symptom is described concisely in a at most a couple of lines)
Also, tell me if the frequent urination problem that you mentioned is still there and is it ONLY during daytime ?

Hiya again.
This past few days my symptoms have settled down really well and again it's hard to believe.
I can't believe that I did all that gardening with no ill effects except a slightly stiff neck and hissing in my right ear and to the back of my head on the right. In bed I had a very vague feeling of vertigo .It lasted a split second and came from the base of my scull on the right side. It has happened more than once but isn't a big problem.
Starting from the top
I have very thin white hair. The first grey hair was when I was about 12 yrs old.
The crunching in my back is much less and I have been using the computer and working at a desk with very little ill effects. The right shoulder is still slightly tight on top and to the back to the shoulder blade. It raises towards my ear if I aren't careful
My hands and fingers feel stiff and I find it difficult to pick small things up or to tie bows as I have little feeling in my finger ends.I drop things.I stretch by fingers back to ease the discomfort. Sometimes in the night my hands are so warm they keep me awake. A bit like restless legs but it's my hands.The night time problem with them is very recent.
I have discomfort across the top of my chest and top of my back, with burping as before but the other digestive symptoms have gone. Nothing aggravates it and it can be there when I wake up.It started as a side effect of statins.
My right hip aches slightly, going under my right buttock. Far less than before.
My left knee which I damaged years ago is aching at the inside right front at the moment, slightly under the knee cap. I can't flex it fully and if I put too much pressure on it I feel as tho the bones are knocking together and I can't put my weight on it for a while. It comes and goes.
My bladder is much better. I pass urine in the night only if I am wakeful, otherwise I manage untill maybe 6am, I'm not sure.
I still have to pass urine urgently in the day sometimes but much less in frequency and urgency.
I didn't tell you that I feel lethargic when I get cold and fatigue when I get hot. The slightest warmth or physical activity makes me sweat and I have trouble sleeping because I get too hot.
Really I feel so much better physically, I keep thinking it is too soon to tell and will all come back. The main physical problems now are my knee and the burping problem.
Thank you so much!
I look forward to your next contact.

I don't know if it will help but I have uneven pigmentation on my cheeks going down to the sides of my neck. I have freckles naturally but this is different.

It is very nice to know that you are feeling much better.
I am very happy for you. It is clear that anti-doting Arnica a bit benefited you a lot.
I will try to repertorize the above symptoms and see if something other than Phosphorus comes up. In the meanwhile, answer the following in a succint manner
1) So you said you hate injustice ? So, speak up on behalf of others too if you injustice happening ? is this feeling very strong ? e.g. UNABLE TO TOLERATE OTHER'S SUFFERING resulting in
GREAT ANGER OVER INJUSTICES toward himself or others (example: a fellow worker's mistreatment)
2) Do you have a tendency towards CHECKING AND RECHECKING TASKS COMPULSIVELY ?
3) What makes yor pains better, rest or movement ? warmth or cold ?
4) Do you have GENERAL AGGRAVATION AFTER TAKING A NAP IN THE DAYTIME, ESPECIALLY AFTERNOON ?
5) Do you ever have trembling from anger or emotions ?
6) Do you ever throw things in anger ?
7) Is there anything you crave to eat ?
8) How often do you clear your bladder during the day ?
9) Do you dwell on disagreeable things from the past ?
10) How is your self-esteem ?
11) Do you SIGH a lot ?
12) Are you idealistic ?
13) Do you think your complaints are linked to being in abusive relationships ?

Hiya Sameer, I will try to make it short
1.Injustice makes me very frustrated and I will risk being unpopular to speak out if the person can't. I can become very angry if it goes on or is deliberate. I also believe in justice. If you deliberately break the rules you have to be prepared to pay the price, but the price shouldn't be unreasonable.
2. No I don't check things compulsively.
3.Usually, leaning back or doing exercises which take me back helps the pain in the top of my back. Exercising so that weight is on the top of my shoulders and back of my head help my neck.Temperature doesn't really affect my pains. Knee relieved by rest.
4.I almost never nap in the day but when I have, I felt as if I have had too much to drink.Groggy.
5.No, I can't remember trembling from anger.
6. I have, very rarely, thrown something through frustration to try to break a cycle, say if I think it will stop a really bad argument. Only at home actually.
7.I really enjoy nuts, bread and crunchy things too much but I don't crave a particular food.
8.I probably empty my bladder 10 times recently. I'm not sure as it is a recent improvement.
9.No I don't dwell on the past regularly. Sometimes the past pops up and it bothers me if it's a certain incident because it was hurtful but I suppose it happens to us all.
10.Low self esteem past 3 or 4 years since husbands mental illness. Little confidence in my abilities.
11.I don't notice myself sighing but my husband sometimes asks me why I am doing it and the last time I was pleasantly tired after fruitful day.
12.Sorry to be vague but I suppose in some ways I can be idealistic, mainly to do with what my faith teaches. (Question 1)
Nothing is perfect.
13.Difficult: Not really but sometimes reminders of the past pop up and I may dwell on it for a while if it was particularly bad.

Correction no 13 has repeated.
Instead 13. Difficult. I know that my state of mind at the moment is affected by being in an abusive relationship since my husband's mental breakdown but I'm not sure about my physical complaints. I know tension doesn't help the shoulders and neck but I have suffered for a long time, 1992.

Hiya Sameer,
I've had a mixed week. The weather has been lovely in England and for the first time in years I haven't felt instantly exhausted as soon as I went out into the sun. I have spent hours working in the garden but was very tired afterwards.
On waking and stretching my legs I have felt mild cramp in my calves which soon disappeared.
Every day,in the morning I have felt anxiety in my stomach for no reason but it has passed as the morning progressed.
Have felt in low spirits when the sun has been hidden by cloud and the sky grey.
One evening while at the desk I had a bad pain in my ear which travelled to my chest. I have mentioned it before but it usually starts in my chest and travels through my jaw, throat to my ear.
This week, I have had numbness in my cheeks, nerve pain in my eyes and forehead and pain starting with aching in the base of my scull on the left side. I've suffered intermittently in the past but it was worse and lasted for days in succession. The past two days i'ts been better, but I have been attempting to do the shoulderstand and plough to stretch my neck. I did yoga years ago but was advised against it by a osteopath as I was very flexible so may have stretch too far and caused more damage.
I still have hissing in my right ear which comes and goes.
Today I have the usual aching between my shoulder blades and slight aching in my chest.
The top of my right shoulder, arm and hand are aching.
I don't know if I told you that I have little feeling in my finger ends which makes picking small things up.
My left knee hurts less.
I must say though that my physical complaints aren't as severe as they were, except for the trouble with my face.
My urination frequency problem is the same but less irritating.
I have had to be secretive about doing something good this week so as not to anger someone. I feel very tense and depressed about it as the person will also be hurt when the anger subsides.
I don't like to tell lies or be deceitful. It really stresses me. In the past I have been ready to face the consequences of being honest but don't have the energy lately.
I hope the information is helpful. I feel embarrased to have so many complaints.

Hi Serann,
It is clear now that Staph. is not indicated.
Please take 3 doses of Causticum 30C on a single day spaced by 1 hour.
Report status in 3 days after these 3 doses.

Hiya Sameer
Sorry I have left it so long but my 4month old grandson is in hospital so I have other things to worry about.
I have had no nerve pains in my face but stabs of pain in my right ear.
My right ear still hisses, mainly at night or if it is noisy. I don't like noise.
The top of my spine, between my shoulder blades still crunches when I lie on the floor but there is little pain.My neck is slightly stiff but hurts very little
My right shoulder is still tense and achy.My hands are the same
I am now sleeping very well but as usual as soon as I get into bed I get very hot which stops me from sleeping immediately. I need a thin sheet to cover me. I can't sleep entirely uncovered. Sometimes I awake in the morning feeling very chilled for a while.
I still wake with terrible anxiety and apprehension in my stomach.
Now summer has arrived my moth phobia is back although there aren't any around yet.
I don't like any insects that might crawl or fly on me. I shudder if insects get on me.Moths terrify me
I have been very stressed and depressed this last week as my grandson is so ill and found it hard to cope. I have also come to realise that I must make drastic changes to my life, which I don't really want to do and it's very stressful and depressing.The thought fills me with dread.
My grandson was born with blocked and twisted insides. He had some bowel and intestine removed a few hours old. He cannot absorb all the goodness from his food because of it.
He has severe reflux which makes him vomit all of the special food so he isn't growing.
He is yellow all over as he has liver damage from the treatment.
He has something wrong with his muscles. He can't bend his elbows or hold anything with his hands. It was from his shoulders down but with physio he can now hold his arms up and his wrists are more flexible. He has to wear splints to maintain any improvement. Can you help him also?
The reflux is priority as this week he has been very dehydrated and lost a lot of weight. He is 5 months old in a few days and weighs maybe 10 pounds.
Thanks Sameer

Forgot to say I still have wind pains in the top of my chest and have started with flatulence. Probably the stress.

And, you did take Causticum, 3 doses, right ?

Okay, we have to go to Phosphorus.
But, Phosphorus cannot be given after Causticum as these are inimical remedies.
We need to anti-dote Causticum before we go to Phosphorus.
So, take three doses of Nux Vomica 30C on any evening at half hour gap.
Report 3 days after this.
