Please help me figure out my son's constitutional _{Page 13 of 32}

Ok, I can do that, but I need to buy something else as well in order to make the minimum order amount. Any suggestions? Either useful things to keep in the house for acutes or injuries, OR something for me or my son?

I can get it locally much cheaper!

Anyway, I will figure something out. They are closed until 29th, so will place the order then, and hopefully it will be here by early the following week.

Last night was fine. He cried out a couple of times, but then slept until morning, no problems.

Tell me, LM is very strong yes? Stronger than M? Would we expect an aggravation from it, and will it take a long time to have full effect?

Thanks for the explanation Sameer. I will get the LM1 and LM2 as suggested. Both in the 15mlm?

Hi Sameer. Unfortunately I haven't been able to purchase those remedies from helios yet. There is a problem with my shipping selection that I can't work out. I've sent them an email and will hopefully hear back from them soon.

Meanwhile, we are going away for a few days. I'll bring the puls 12c with us just in case.

Things are ok here. He is sleeping fine at nighttime, although I had to go in once last, but I think he had a bad dream.

However, his day time behaviour is not so good. I don't know what his problem is, but he is out of character. He is a little bit like I described him the other day - out of control, disobedient, hyperactive. But what is more noticeable than that is that he is very irritable, very sensitive (even more so than usual), crying easily and throwing little tantrums. It could be a developmental thing of course - he is learning at an alarming rate at the moment, new words every day and lots of new skills. Still, I am not sure.

I have also wondered whether his last four teeth are coming through, but I see no sign of them.

His bowel movements are relatively normal for the first time in ages. He goes once every two days. His appetite and thirst still fluctuates. He is much more interested in eating fruit and vegetables these days than he was a month ago.

If you have any thoughts, I'm keen to hear them, otherwise I will update you when we return home. Thanks again.

Hi Sameer, I am posting in the middle of the night because I might not have time tomorrow. My son's condition has deteriorated tonight, as I feared it might. He woke up around midnight, and now two hours later he still hasn't settled back into a deep sleep. He keeps waking and crying inconsolably every fifteen minutes. We have given pain relief which will hopefully kick in soon. He has been coughing a little bit since this afternoon as well. I think it is time to give the 12C tomorrow. And I just hope we can get this LM soon. Hope this is ok with you.

OK, I finally got through to Helios today. LM1 and 2 are ordered.

We were up for 4 hours last night, one of the worst nights in history. Funny thing is, he seems fine this morning. Anyway, I will give the 12C today.

Thanks for your help. I'll update you in a few days.

Hi Sameer, happy new year!

We have been away from home for the past three nights. We gave 3 x doses of 12c on Tuesday. All three of the nights we were away were tough ones. He woke several times, and was generally unsettled and unpset. That said, my son never sleeps well while we're away from home, he is just not comfortable in other places, even if they are familiar to him.

Here is a rundown of behaviour and symptoms:

Tuesday night: in a reasonable mood during the evening, and had a good appetite, but hard to settle to bed and woke several times during the night crying very hard, pulling his ears. Gave pain relief. Woke very early in morning.

Wednesday: Unhappy almost all day. Agitated, cranky, prone to temper tantrums, crying at the drop of a hat. Woke from his nap upset and was particularly bad in the afternoon. Better in evening with a good appetite again, but really, really hard to settle to bed. Only woke once during the night, and went back to sleep easily. Had a foul, liquid bowel movement during the night (very unusual). Woke early again.

Thursday: Fantastic mood all day, just delightful to be around (best in AGES). Good appetite all day. Nap was good, no crying. Went to bed without a fuss, however he woke about 6 times between midnight and 3am, (pulling his ears) and we gave pain relief. Again woke really early in the morning.

Friday (today): Mood swung from good to bad during the day, however we were travelling for part of the day and he was cranky for that part, but not earlier. Appetite still good. Noticed a slight runny nose and a bit of coughing today. Tonight he has woken twice already (he's only been in bed 3 hours). The first time he went back to sleep by himself, the second, he has just settled with a drink of a water. Who knows what will happen yet.

I don't know what to make of all this. At first I thought it was just his body adjusting to the new doses, but since he seemed to improve and then get worse again, I'm a bit confused. What do you think?

Just posting to let you know that things are improving slowly but steadily.

Friday night was fine after the initial early wakeups, but he still woke very early on Saturday morning. He was in a good mood all day Saturday, but had a very disturbed afternoon nap and screamed his head off when he woke up. Last night was ok - only one wakeup, and he finally slept in until a decent hour in the morning. He is another great mood today and this afternoon's nap is going well so far.

His bowel movements have normalised - first truly solid ones in quite a while - and he is going every day for the past two days, which is also unusual (but in a good way, I'm sure).

Cough is very rare, and no more runny nose for now.

He is still waking crying. That is the big thing yet to disappear. And hopefully he will sleep all night tonight.

Will keep you posted and let you know when the LMs arrive.

Hi Sameer.

There has been no further improvement since my last post.

He woke once on Sunday night and twice on Monday night. Still waking up crying for the most part, but not always. A couple of times I have heard him playing for a couple of minutes and then it suddenly descends into distressed crying.

He is still doing one bowel movement every day. Appetite is good. Coughing every now and then, and nose running very occasionally.

This afternoon he has woken from his nap even more distressed than usual, and is really pulling and rubbing at his left ear.

The LMs have arrived today. How should I proceed?

Ok. I presume the procedure is the same in regards to nothing entering the mouth for 40 minutes before and after the dose?

Do I have to success the remedy bottle from helios before I add the drops to the water?

Hi Sameer, it has been 72 hours since the LM dose, and we've seen a pretty steady improvement. Last night he slept right through the night without disturbance for the first time in weeks. The previous two nights he woke once, but it was really, really hot here, and I suspect he was just thirsty. We haven't seen any signs of him pulling his ears for some days now.

Still has a good appetite and healthy bowel movements.

We have noticed a little bit of discharge from his eyes and nose.

This morning he woke up with a slightly stuffy sound in his nose. He is a bit irritable this afternoon and didn't have a very good nap.

So what is next?

Ok, just to clarify, does that mean that I have to make up a new bottle with water and two drops each time?

Ok, will do! Thank you once again. :)

When would you like to hear from me next?

Hi Sameer, just got a quick question. We're due to give him the third dose on Tuesday afternoon, but unfortunately he is in daycare and won't be picked up until right before dinner time, and then there is no easy opportunity to give him the dose before bed with a 40 minute space on either side of the dose. Is it ok to wait until the following morning - so about another 16 hours? Or will that compromise things?
