joing pain _{Page 7 of 11}

Dear Sameer,
I now have Silicea 200.

Hi Sameer,

the most noticeable symptom is my joint pain and stiffnes. I am experiencing worse pain in the last 2 weeks, not being able to stand up for too long.

the 'tailbone pain' is almost gone, I do feel it sometimes but not too often. I believe the last prescription really helped that.

Mentally I feel ok most of the time, today I had a hint of overwhelm with my responsibilities, feelings like 'I cant wait until these kids are adults so i don't have to be in the mother role all the time.' This overwhelm lasted only for a few minutes and I snapped out of it. It comes with the territory of being a single parent. What can we do?

I also am finding that I am in a period of overeating. I know that I have to lose weight, yet I do not restrict myself at all, I act as if I am perfect weight. If I was more active it would be ok, but because of my immobility I should really be very strict with caloric intake but I am not.

I am not as angry as I used to be with issues re: my mother and sister, I find I am more compassionate about their words and dont take things so personally. So I have more inner peace.

I still have itchy toes and those spots on my face have not gone away. Still have brown spots on my skin.

If it were not for the pain on my hips, I would be doing way better.
Thank you
Marika

thank you Sameer,
I am eager to experience the next level of healing.

Hello Sameer,

It may be a bit longer than 2 weeks since I took Silicea 200C.
The most noteable change has been that I have lost a certain 'craving' I had for dairy products, this includes milk and cheese. I probably had not mentioned this craving before, but it had started to bother me that I actually was craving milk, I do not digest it too well, so I am glad that now I can take it or leave it.

Other symptoms, the pain in the hips has eased up just a touch, the tailbone pain is 80% gone too. This is great. I really am looking forward to strengthen my ligaments and maybe bones too.
No changes have occured in the skin, the brown spots are all still there.

thank you tremendously,
Happy New Year
Marika

Hello Sameer,
I am a little past one week now, and must report.
The pain on my hips is doing a little better, once I start being up and around, I feel that my joints 'will give up on me'. The other day the seat of the car slipped back suddenly and I thought that my left hip fell out of the socket. My ligaments must be weak or something. I am working very hard to lose weight, that should definitely help the situation.

Last week for 3 days or so I was experiencing feelings of deep discouragement, hopelessness and deep gloom. I was very aware that this is not my usual optimistic self and wondered if I was feeling depression. I even thought maybe I need to take Calcarea. But these feelings lifted after about 4 days.
I must tell you though that I am very concerned about my skin. I have those two spots above the eyebrows, one on the right is getting larger, and it feels somewhat between itchy and stingy. I have not gone to the doctor but wondered if I shoud buy black salve to put on it in case it is skin cancer. What alternatives would you recommend, say if it was you experiencing this. I am not sure if black salve which is a herbal ointment is still considered 'suppression' in this treatment, that is why I am holding back and have not done anything about it.

I would like to feel more secure, however, that I am doing the right thing.
And, when I think those thoughts, I start to feel that familiar trembling of fear inside of me.
Do you think my homeopathic course will eventually get to the surface(skin) ailments?
I really hope so.

Thank you,
Marika

Dear Sameer,

I sent you a post a few days ago and I am just making sure you noticed it.
Thank you,
Marika

Hello Sameer,
It is 11 days since I have taken Kali Carb 30C. The feeling of gloom and hopelessnes is definitely gone, and have not felt it since.
I decided to do something about helping my health along and have gone on the Master Cleanse, drinking many glasses of lemon juice, maple suryp and cayenne in water, along with plain water, and the occasional herbal tea. Today is day 9 of this cleanse.
The joint pain is almost entirely gone, but the usual feeling of 'need to sit down' after standing up or walking is definitely still there.

I have also noticed that even though I do not eat food, I still have 'heartburn' or 'acid reflux' whatever it may be. It is mostly on the left side, I suspect the lemon juice and the cayenne may be aggravating the situation, it goes away after I drink water.

I did this for my immune system, to give the digestive system a good rest, and of course for weight loss. A good spring cleaning, I figured.
Mentally I feel ok, happily pleased with my will power and hoping that I am doing some good.
My skin is the same, no change there. It must all be happening inward.

thank you,
Marika

Hello Sameer,
It is one week since I wrote, and wondered if I should take Silicea 200C now.
Mentally I feel not too bad, I do have bouts of lack of confidence, get overwhelmed when out there in the world, and need to come home to ground as I call it. It seems that I recharge better when I am by myself, too many people around me and I feel anxiety or better said overwhelmed.

Physically things are ok, as well, the joint pain has reduced because of the weight I lost, and I am happy about that, it makes it easier to walk and do my chores.
I will wait for instructions from you.
Thank you,
marika

Hello Sameer,

I took Kali Carb 200C on March 8th.
One of the first symptoms that improved was a certain 'trembling' or 'quivering' that I feel inside my chest, or heart, I am not quite sure how to describe it. When I feel it, I think to myself, right now I am not at all afraid, or thinking of anything in particular yet I feel this 'sensitiveness'. Well, this left almost immediately.

The other symptom that left was my 'inner shivering'. I am saying inner because it did not depend on the temperature (weather) at all, I was always shivering even though I was dressed enough or covered enough. My fingers and toes finally stopped being ice cold.

Next, I felt more 'motivated' to do things that I need to do, eventhough small tasks, I tend to procrastinate. In other words, I found a renewed level of creativity and willingness. I tend to be sluggish, I believe I had written this on previous posts and found to be much less sluggish after taking the last dose of kali carb. I even thought, hm, maybe a 10M of this remedy might turn me into a type A personality.

I believe the above are the most marked of my changes.
Thank you,
Marika

Hello Sameer,
It is time for me to update on my condition.
I am starting to get the cold hands and feet symptom again, since 3 days ago.

May be slipping back to the old patterns of sluggishness, although not as marked.
Should I take another dose of Kali Carb 200C?
thank you,
Marika

thank you so much Sameer, I will do that today.

I will be going to see my mother in about a week. Staying with her for one month.
Should I take my 200C with me and communicate with you via my daughter?

thank you so much Sameer, your help is so valuable to me.

Hello Sameer,

On April 18 I was experiencing a very strange set of symptoms, some combination of panic attack, felt like my heart was working too hard even with very little exertion, so I got somewhat scared because I was so far away from home, and I took one dose of the Kali Carb 1m.

Symptoms soon subsided, I later realized that perhaps it was the circumstances of being alone with my mom, she likes the blinds drawn, I felt like I was going to suffocate, also stayed home for most of the time because my mon does not like to go out much.
While I was there I also realized that I was defensive within me, always on guard in case my mom says anything that would hurt my feelings, so I was protective of my own self, without saying anything to offend her.

The time I stayed with my mom was good, I spent individual time with her because my dad has now passed, so I focuse entirely on her. It also revealed to me that I may still have inner child walls up against being offended by my mother. Once that became visible in my understanding of myself, I relaxed about it thinking that I have now grown up and it does not really matter whether my mom approves of me or not.(I must clarify that my mother is quite critical), but still my feelings are my responsibility.

Well, now I am back home with my children and presently experiencing quite a case of disability: I am not able to stand up or walk for too long a time period, symptoms seemed to have increased dramatically since I came here, perhaps the weather is damper.

I am wondering if you would agree if I started taking some kind of Calcium tissue salt, like Phos, or Fluor, or a combination of both with Mag Phos and Silicea. I feel I need bone support, to strengthen my bones and skeletal structure, something that is not just a nutritional supplement, even though it might help.

A friend of mine who knows homeopathy suggested perhaps tubercilinum because I was born with a deformity of the hip joints.
I have a good strong tubercular side to me, I loose interest easily in one area of interest and quickly move to another. ie, interested in Aromatherapy, and Crystals, and Herbs, and Energy healing, etc. etc.
Or should I start Silicea again and progress to a higher potency?

My concern is that I should probably support my bones and structure as much as I can.
Another later development is that I have a little mole at the back of my hand that only a brown stain, but now is developing into a mole. Should i go and get that checked out?

These are my latest developments, whenever you have time you may advise me.

thank you,
marika

I just wrote a long list and explanation but i think it may have been erased, I hope this is not a repeat.

the spot where I feel the pain is on the posterior side, and I looked it up, it is called Greater Sciatic Notch. The sensation is not only pain, it feels like I will collapse if I do not sit down. It feels like my hips will not hold me if I do not help by getting off my feet.

this is how it feels. I will collapse like a doll, not from weakness or faintness, but from lack of strength in the bones. But it may be a sciatic nerve issue I do not know exactly. I do feel lack of strength from my end of experience.

Worse after movement walking or standing up, and better from lying down. I thought it might be dampness, but we have had some dry weather here too and no change in my state.
The pain may travel down the side of my leg, all the way to the ankles. This is not all the time,
Sometimes i feel like I am deteriorating that is why I thought I should go on some calcium treatment.

Mentally I am ok generally, but I do feel stuck with not being able to do the things I want like walking or gardening, and it feels like a trap, but I do not let it depress me, I just want to help myself.

I could also get impatient with people if I feel they do not understand what I mean or trying to say. I feel it but do not voice it. It is as if they should figure out what I mean, and quickly. My mind works fast and I may get impatient with others.

Other symptoms: sometimes my fingers tingle or feel numb, especially the little finger on both hands, it goes numb the first, then I move it and the numbness goes away.

I think I have described most of my symptoms, if I think of something more I will write it.
thank you,
Marika
