Dr Kadwa ,I need a second opinion,please help

Dear Vanity

The approach that your homeopath has adopted is very dangerous. He is asking you to give homeo remedies to your child as if these are herbal supplements.
A homeo remedy is a stimulation to the vital force. If the remedy is repeated very often it results in creating proving symptoms. The position may become so worse that one won't know which are the original symptoms and which are the proving symptoms.

This is what is there in your posts-

Right now he prescribed her Croton-T 30c for 10 days 3 drops in 4 tblsp of water once a day.
>>Effect
This medicine aggravated her eczema to an intolerable extent.earlier she had more severity on her both legs(all around)but after this remedy new patches appeared every where in her whole body

After that he asked me to give her Rhus Tox 30c (3 drops in 4 tblspn of water once a day) for 3 weeks.
>>Effect
Her skin rashes are continuously coming up on almost every part of her body now.Itching has made things even worse.

Please burn some camphor and ask her to inhale some fumes. Please be careful she should not burn her while doing so.

Camphor should antidote her earlier remedies. Please don't give her any homeo remedy for one week. Please come with the following information after one week.

1.whether she prefers warm surroundings ie whether she likes to be covered or she prefers cold surroundings and open air.

2.whether she has a mild disposition or an irritable diposition. How is her attitude towards her friends and relatives?

3.What other physical problems, if any does she have.

4.At what time she feels better and at what time does she feel worse like in the morning, evening, late night etc.

5.What do you think is the causative factor for starting her problems.

6.How is her thirst for cold drinks, hot drinks and water?

7.How is the bowel movement? Normal, constipated or loose.

8.Whether the child prefers to move around or prefers to keep still.

Hello.
I must say I agree with Mr.Kadwa. There are some people on this forum who call themselves homeopath, but apparently not.
A serious homeopath had asked about the symptoms your daughter has, emotionally, mentally and physically, etc. You can not just propose a medicine without further examination. In particular, there is a man here who believes Arnica is the solution to everything, not good. Suggest that you stay away from such people. It is such people who give homeopathy a bad reputation.

Seems to me that Mr. Kadwa is a more serious guy, suggest that you listen to him.

I can also help if needed. E-Mail address can be found on my profile.

Sincerely,
Parakletos
Practitioner of classical homeopathy

Will also add that until you find the right medicine, you can use essential fatty acids, this benefit eczema cases; especilly recommended is 'flax seed oil' (1 tsp)
Also vitamin A, and Vitamin B Complex, and zinc.
Vitamin A is recomended in 15.000 to 25.000 units per day, Vitamin B 50 mg. per day, and zinc 50 mg. day. But this is for adults, so it is best to talk to your pharmacist.

Good luck.

Dear vanity,dear instead of running from pillars to post i will advice you to follow WHAT YOUR HEART SAYS IS RIGHT for this baby because as an mother you have to decide what you want, dear the fight between Classical and ''Other homeopathy practitioners'' is as old as it is between allopathy & classical homeopathy, as you know the result is the main whether you follow any pathy, its my opinion,I have these article in my store it might help you:

Millions of people all around the world suffer from eczema, the cases can range from extreme to fairly mild. There are many different treatments from eczema, some of these require simple lifestyle changes, while others focus on using prescription medicines. We will take a look at some of the most common eczema treatments below.

The simplest forms of eczema treatment require simple lifestyle chances. By changing your skincare regime, you should be able to alleviate many of the irritating symptoms you notice as an eczema sufferer.

Baths are filled with water, so you might think that it’s unlikely it will cause your skin to dry out. Well in actual fact if your bath is too hot it can cause your skin to loose some much needed moisture. To remedy this you should make sure that you take cooler baths and showers, this makes sure that your skin is able to hang onto much more of that much needed moisture.

Soaps are also a no no for eczema sufferers, they dry the skin out far too much! What you need to do is buy some soap that is formulated for sensitive skin, make sure that you buy non scented products too. Liquid soaps are often much more mild than the conventional bars of soap.

You should also consider how you wash your clothes, use mild detergents, preferably ones that are for sensitive skin rather than the normal ones. These simple measures can help to reduce many of the symptoms of eczema.

Eczema causes the skin to dry out, it’s part of the condition. It’s essential that you apply moisturizing creams fairly often to make sure that it doesn’t dry out too much. If the itching is very severe then go to see your doctor, he may be able to prescribe some cream to you which will be more than enough to reduce itching.

You don’t just have to rely upon prescription medications to treat eczema, you can also use many of the home remedies, many of these have had quite a lot of success in relieving the symptoms of eczema. If your skin itches a lot then an icepack can easily stop this being much of a problem. Oatmeal baths are also another possible home treatment, this is where you add oatmeal to your bath. Alternatively you can soak oatmeal in water and then anoint your skin with the water.

Another great treatment for oozing patches of eczema is treating it with milk, use a cotton wool ball soaked in cold milk and apply it to the skin. You should apply this a couple of times and then rinse the milk off with warm water.

Keeping your home humid is also another solution to your eczema, by keeping the air in your home moist you’re also preventing your skin drying out. Humidifiers aren’t that expensive, and they prevent the excessive drying especially in summer. Make sure that you buy a humidifier and not a dehumidifier though!

When washing your clothes use gentle detergents that are kind to your eczema. Buy unscented and gentle detergents and fabric softeners. The fabric softeners work in the rinse cycle and will reduce any aggravation caused by your clothes.

There are many herbal remedies available to treat eczema, one of the most popular ones is evening primrose oil. This can be taken orally and seems to reduce some of the common eczema symptoms. You should also eat foods that are high in omega-6 fatty acids.

Changing your lifestyle just a little can improve your condition quite a lot! Surely it’s worth having a go.

I hope i payed my little part towards the cure of your little one, we all should inch forward & acheive the result .
IT'S THE RESULT THAT MATTERS!!

Thanks,

Hope did my part & an humble sorry for my silly mistakes,

Dear Dr.Parakletos,you are being a classical homeopath as you have claimed yourself but you are prescribing allopathic medicines or giving hints over forum.A sufferer comes here with good confidence to get relief from troubles and every body is trying to help as par their own achievement but your openion (there is a man here who believes Arnica is the solution to everything, not good. Suggest that you stay away from such people. It is such people who give homeopathy a bad reputation. Is not at all desirable as joepathy has served for mass of sufferers since a long time.I have treated eczema with Arnica.Eczema of this baby is treatable with homeopathy you please sugesst medicine and help the mother of baby as well as we the participants of this forum.Thanks,malaker

To Dr Haran ch malaker

I note that you have referred to me and the therapy that I prescribe which your type of classical homeopathy derisively branded as 'Joepathy' some years ago.

Here is what you have stated in a post above on this thread which I shall copy below:

'your openion (there is a man here who believes Arnica is the solution to everything, not good. Suggest that you stay away from such people. It is such people who give homeopathy a bad reputation. Is not at all desirable as joepathy has served for mass of sufferers since a long time.I have treated eczema with Arnica.Eczema of this baby is treatable with homeopathy you please sugesst medicine and help the mother of baby as well as we the participants of this forum.Thanks,malaker'

It is a matter of concern that you, who I presume are a qualified classical homeopath should deride my therapy merely because I do not conform to the rules of classical homeopathy which you were brainwashed into believing during your studies as being the only path to a cure.

I have proved conclusively that while classical homeopathy with all the questions that are involved in the case taking process can perhaps identify the correct remedy for the ailment presented by the patient, the JOEPATHY that I prescribe which is a direct 'this for that' process based on previous records of success in the use of the remedy, in this case Arnica 6c in the Wet dose for the child's Eczema, is also equally or even more effective that your own classical remedy, in helping the patient to be cured.

It is your form of derisive criticism that I resent at my advanced age of 81 years. I have ample evidence throughout my years of prescribing Homeopathic Remedies to patients who consult me, that my Joepathy has cured many thousands of cases much faster than your own type of classical homeopathy. I do not criticize your method of identifying 'One remedy to treat the totality of the symptoms the patient presents'. The fact remains however that the chances of your identifying that elusive single remedy are few and far between and I expect you and all other classical homeopaths who may read this analytical post to please observe the ethics observed on this and other Homeopathic Forums which is never to criticize the therapy prescribed by another Homeopath. If you have any objection to a prescription, you are free to report the post to the Moderator but not to directly criticize it in the manner that you have done so on this thread.

This form of criticism was tried by 3 pseudo classical homeopaths on my about 4 years ago and I decided to boycott this ABC forum in 2006 as I resented their constant interference of my therapy and this has now been stopped by the owner of this Forum Simon Broadley who has inserted the last line under every post which reads:

'Report post to moderator'

If you have any quarrel with me you are free to follow his instructions and do so but I do resent your snide attack on my therapy when you state:

'here is a man here who believes Arnica is the solution to everything, not good. Suggest that you stay away from such people. It is such people who give homeopathy a bad reputation. Is not at all desirable as joepathy has served for mass of sufferers since a long time'

It is obvious that you have not read all my posts on the ABC and the 3 other Homeopathic forums that I visit daily as you will realize that I do not prescribe Arnica alone for every ailment that the patients present.

It is very likely that I at age 81, have been in Homeopathy long before you were born. I practice Homeopathy for the joy of healing anyone who consults me and I do not levy any fee from anyone although to you, Homeopathy is your profession and I do not resent that.

All I seek is that all of us who prescribe on this forum do so in peace without criticizing each other as it is the patient's cure which is paramount and NOT the method used 'Joepathy' or Classical Homeopathy. If Joepathy can cure faster, it is the patient's choice to use it. If he is not cured the patient can then use your own brand of classical homeopathy.

For the record I shall copy below a case of Eczema which was cured in under 2 days which you can read about on the link below. This is direct evidence from the patient that he was cured in just 2 days.

Can you or any other classical homeopath testify that you have cured a case of Eczema in just 2 days?

Glad to note that my Joepathy has virtually cured your Eczema in under 2 days. The great advantage that you have with Arnica is that the cure will be permanent but you may have to take it for a few weeks into the future to make it permanent.

You will remember that I predicted that your Eczema should respond in 3 days.

'Re: eczema
From Joe De Livera on 2010-04-04

The therapy aka Joepathy is still the same for both Contact Dermatitis (CD) and Eczema.

Arnica 6c in the Wet dose should dry the lesions in under 3 days. It should also be applied directly on the lesions as prescribed above.

If however CD does not respond to the Arnica I shall prescribe another remedy than can help'

It is rarely that any prescriber would dare to predict publicly on a Forum like the ABC that any ailment can be cured in 3 days but in this case the patient has confirmed on his own without any prompting from me that his Eczema has responded in 2 days.

Dear Joe,
Thanks a lot.
I have tried the above remedy, it worked like wonders.
1) Redness on my left and right forearm has decreased a lot.
2) Now there is no itching as before.
I hope it will cure soon.

Thank you once again.

With sincere regards,

Classical Homeopaths please note.

Joepathy invariably works wonders.

Dear Vanity,

Please don't give her any remedy now and report back after 7 days. If there is a significant relapse within 7 days you may repeat Sulphur 6c as you have done earlier for only one day. Please procure Sulphur 30c for future use.

I'm not going to start some argument about 'joypathy. But I see that you use homeopathic medicine in an allopathic way. What you do with your Arnica is to remove a symptom, not the cause. The patient will probably be pleased, but the cause of, eg eczema you mention is still there.
What can happen is that the symptoms can appear in other places, and now more serious than they were before.
In some cases, of course, Arnica can be the right remedie, but it is doubtful that it's the correkt every time.
This is my honest opinion about such a method you prescribe. May be I'm wrong ..

Sincerly Parakletos

A homeo remedy is a stimulation to the vital force. The cure is effected if the remedy is able to stimulate the vital force otherwise the vital force just ignores the stimulation offered by the remedy and nothing happens. If one repeats the remedy very often one experiences the proving symptoms.
If the remedy in a given potency works and if the problem recurs, the same potency may be repeated. If there is no response to the same potency one should go for the higher potency.
The diet of baby should also be monitored. Various food items like brinjal, meat, eggs, some beans, ground-nut are known to flare up skin diseases, so this should also be avoided.

Please follow what i already told you......

....If there is a significant relapse within 7 days you may repeat Sulphur 6c as you have done earlier for only one day. Please procure Sulphur 30c, Sulphur 200c and Sulphur 1M for future use....

I am posting my reply to Parakletos in separate parts as I am encountering some problem from the Forum Reply box which states that 'Your test contains contains certain words not permitted on this Forum

To Parakletos

Since you have referred to my defense of Joepathy I shall give you an answer.

I do believe that Classical Homeopathy has its place in this curative Science of Homeopathy. In my experience of over 25 years in actively helping patients, which as I have often stated I do without charging any fees, I discovered that identifying the remedy for an ailment in the classical manner after the standard process of questioning the patient for 2 hours, did not usually work. This was due to the fact that using my mind alone to do so was limited by various factors. This I felt, was the real reason why, in the majority of cases of Homeopaths using the classical formula, the remedy did not work. This was because the selection was based on what was largely a theoretical formula which the homeopath's mind with its limitations, had identified. For instance if a patient consulted you and later consulted me for his ailment the remedy that you would give would in all probability be different from mine. This is the weakness of the classical formula where the selection of the remedy is done in the mind of the classical homeopath where he may not remember the precise rubrics to fit the remedy.
This system unfortunately leads to other more serious ramifications as the poor patient continues to suffer and has to pay the fee to the homeopath for every visit while he continues to suffer from his ailment. In many cases after several visits, he is forced to consult an allopath who then uses steroids or antibiotics which cure the disease but leave behind serious after effects.

I would like to take this opportunity of informing you and any other classical homeopath who may read this post that I often use Radar 10 which as you may be aware is accepted as the most comprehensive software that is available in Homeopathy. I use it only when I am not familiar with the case presented by the patient or when I wish to be certain that the remedy I have prescribed is correct.

Re: To Dr Haran ch malaker From Joe De Livera on 2010-05-02
This is the reason why I decided, after a process of elimination of remedies, to use my own selection of remedies which was based on my studies of Remedies from the same textbooks that you have used in College. The difference is that I use my own mind in the selection which is based on the identification of not only the remedy but the subtle difference that various potencies of the remedy can make in curing the patient.

You and other homeopaths on this Forum have often implied that I only use Arnica to treat the ailments of all patients who post their problems on this Forum and you will see that this is not correct. Reference to the thousands of cases that I have treated, the majority of which have been cured, will prove otherwise.

The difference in my use of Homeopathic remedies in what you state is in an allopathic manner is because I and many thousands of Homeopaths who use the direct 'this for that' formula have discovered that if a remedy cures an ailment, say Eczema in a patient, it is very likely that this same remedy will do so in the case of another who presents the same symptoms.

Re: To Dr Haran ch malaker From Joe De Livera on 2010-05-02
You are not the first 'classical' homeopath to criticize my therapy which a classical homeopath had the audacity some years ago to derisively refer to the numerous cures which are there for all to read on the Web. He did not dream of the fact that this term would continue to identify my therapy internationally. If you type this word 'Joepathy' into Google you will discover that there are over 1400 hits listed today each of which give the link to many cases that I have cured on the 4 Homeopathic Forums that I visit daily.

If you are still curious to have more proof of the many remedies that I have used in the past, you can type my name 'Joe De Livera' into Google and you will discover that over 19000 hits are listed.

I would also like to emphasize that I am not the only Homeopath in the whole world who uses the direct 'this for that' method in Homeopathy.

If you wish to further investigate my therapy and how other more qualified Homeopaths use it you can insert into Google:

PRASANTA BANERJI HOMEOPATHIC RESEARCH FOUNDATION, KOLKA

I shall copy their opening statement on their website on the therapy they use which is IDENTICAL to my own Joepathy.

Banerji Protocol of Treatment

The Banerji Protocol is a new method of treatment using homeopathic medicines. Specific medicines are prescribed for specific diseases. Diseases are diagnosed using modern/state of the art methods. This is done because modern diagnostic approaches incorporate and help in the selection of medicines so that specific medicines could be easily prescribed for specific diseases. This is not practiced in classical homeopathy.

The concept of specific homeopathic medicine for a disease based on symptoms was first perceived and practiced by Late Dr. Pareshnath Banerji. With the passage of time and the availability of new diagnostic tools like Ultrasonography, MRIs, cancer markers and other advanced tests, we were able to further streamline the treatment protocols accurately. The efficiency of this streamlining is reflected by the encouraging results of The Banerji Protocol.

In The Banerji Protocol of treatment, mixtures of remedies or frequent repetitions of the remedies are used when required. This is not practiced in classical homeopathy. The combination of two potentized medicines, we use, are made in a meaningful way based on years of clinical experiments and observations by us. They are mixed for special advantages in treatment, so that the aggravation due to drugs can be checked, side effects of the medicines can be abated, quick and uneventful recovery can be ensured in a much shorter time.

Specific homeopathic medicines are also used for supportive care. Homeopathic medicines prescribed on constitutional grounds may play a useful role in supportive and palliative for patients with malignant disease.

The Banerji Protocol is scientific, logical and is based on all modern diagnostic tools and is very realistic.


In conclusion, I would like to emphasize that I am not in Homeopathy to make money. To me Homeopathy is only a Hobby and a Passion with which I have helped thousands of patients and in many instances CURED the majority of patients who seek my assistance. As you perhaps are aware, I am 81 years of age and I am living evidence of the efficacy of Homeopathy as I do not have any ache or pain in my body at my advanced age. My BP is

Please procure ayurvedic medicine Haridra Khanda. Please give her 1/2 tsf in the morning and evening with water. Please don't give Haridra Khanda on the day you give her the homeo remedy.

You should have procured Sulphur 30, 200 and 1M by now. You may repeat the dose as earlier in the absence of 30c. There are many websites that sell Haridra Khanda online. Just google it and you will know.
