I have taken the sul-ac and I will wait few days. I have a question in the meantime. I have said that I had great benefit from natrum sul 7ch taken at the beginning of August: it cleared the edema which made my legs painful and heavy and stopped me getting bloated and tired at every change of wheather. I stopped it after two weeks, because I was so glad that I feared having too much of it. The improvement of that symptom which was the most bothersome for me and lasted 20 years is lasting so far. I would like to know why you don't think that my remedy could be natrum sulph. I read it is for hidrogenoid constitutions and ailments cause by damp places, which is my case. My problems started becuase I slept for many years next to a mouldy wall, as I said. Besides I fit the natrum sul constitution. Why did you exclude it?

I'm not sure if you are addressing me or David. I haven't ruled out the Nat-Sulph, but the primary symptoms you mentioned are so predominantly Mezerium.

You used Nat-Sulph in 7ch? That's a very low dose. How did the 7ch of Nat-S compare with the 200ch of Stran?

You say that you are hidrogenoid constitution. Can you explain what features of that you have?

So, what is your response to the Sul-Ac? You should've felt something within a day of using the remedy.

I think I am addressing HI1 who has suggested mezereum. I have no objection to taking it, I just want to know your opinion on the effect of nat-sul which I used in August. The difference between the natsul and stram, is that the first has had a dramatic and permanent (so far) effect on me for it got rid of the edema on the legs and of the frequent listlessness which I had suffered for 20 years. The stramonium was assumed for irritability and its effect though dramatic did not last
and when I repeated it did not work again. For the little I know about hydrogenoid constitutions is that they suffer from ailments related to damp places, dampness in general. My ailments were cause by sleeping next to a wet and mouldy wall since a very early age until I was 23. The long exposition to mould caused my allergy and allergic sinusitis. I don't know what else I can say in this respect. What is typical of hydrogenoid constitutions, maybe you could ask me further questions.

We've got two conversations.

The Nat-S. and Stran. definitely improved your case. I believe that there was a powerful anti-psoric effect from the Nat-S. But the symptoms that I've listed here are characteristic Mezerium. It is very common for a case to need different remedies as the case progresses.

MEZ. SYMPTOMS
'amelirated by warmth and by rubbing my skin hard. In fact to feel better in the motning I take a hot bath and rub my skin'
'sometimes I lose my temper over very small things with my children.'
'I cannot have the necessary patience that you need for children who by necessity are slow.'
'when I wait for some member of the family to come back I become very anxious and I start anticipating bad news.'
'nervous tummy problem'
'impatient and intolerant sometime.'
'impatient with my children'
The other two key symptoms of Mezerium that I see in this case are anticipation of bad news, and the 'nervous tummy problem'.

I took the sulf acid on the 5th and 6th to close that cycle, now I will wait few days to see if there is an improvement which so far I don't see. When should I take the mezereum and which potency? I must admit that I am very sceptic about it for the reasons I mentioned, but homeopathy is not subjective, so if it is appropriate for my case, it will help despite my doubts.
 
albapapa last decade
I have just seen the questions you ask me on the other discussion, I would like to answer them here
1) I took the mezereum around two months ago, maybe longer. I took it in 15ch for infected secretions in maxillary sinusitis. I took it for few days and then stopped because I saw no change. However after two weeks I noticed that this problem which i have had for ten years had gone.I could not understand why and then I remembered about the mezereum. After two weeks ithe problem came back and so I repeated it once and since then the problem has not come back. But the other problems have remained the same
2)I have no warts, i think I have had it once on the finger.
3) My hair is black and fine, my scalp is normal to greasy. My hands are fine and delicate, the opposite of my husband.

As for the amelioration by scrubbing the skin, it is a sort of energyzing, my system wakes up in the morning. It is all over the body, not a particular place. Likewise with pressure, whether it is a simple squeezing or a proper massage, brings on a great amelioration.
 
albapapa last decade
I don't want to push a remedy on you if you aren't comfortable with it. You have to make your own decisions about what homeopathic medicine you use.
 
Homeopathy International 1 last decade
I don't assess a remedy's usefulness in a chronic case until at least a week has passed. Chronic cases do not necessarily respond in a day.

If you wish to run from remedy to remedy in such an impatient manner, this is your call.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
I am not trying to imply that Sul-ac is the correct remedy, only that you need to be patient with ANY choice you make and properly explore a medicine that has a positive effect before moving on to different ones. I would suggest this whether or not I made the remedy choice.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Both of you are completely wrong about my attitude and intentions regarding homeopathy and your advice. I am not worried about HI1 'pushing a remedy on me', but I feel that I have to express my perplexity in the light of the little I know and I have read about my case because it may be relevant, like I feel I have to give the more information possible on me. At the end of this exchange, if nothing else emerges, I will definitely try the mezereum because I have no reason to exclude it a priori. The problem for me is to help you find the right remedy and nothing else. In this light I would like to add something I have not mentioned. In the morning, as soon as I wake up, before I open my eyes I think, more often than not that life is unbearable and I ask myself: when is this struggle going to end? I know that this has nothing to do with my objective situation, my life is not a struggle, in fact, it happens when the body which is overloaded with mould because I live in a very damp and mouldy area. In fact, it does not happen in other places. It is worst when there is more spores around and in those days my nose, feels blocked.
Brisbane homeopath, I am not running from a remedy to another, I took the sul acidum, because also in this case I had no reason nor presumption to exclude it, and whilst waiting for the 5-6 days you mentioned I am still discussing my case with both of you. I left my homeopath because he had too many presumptions about the gallicum acidum and I expect the doctors on the forum to be more open than him. All I am interested in is to give you more information possible to find a cure if there is one. I have always waited the time you have suggested, though I am impatient, I am impatient about trifles. I have adopted a deaf son who has been implanted in both ears, and is at 6 yrs learning to speak. I know it will take a long time and I am not impatient about it. I am not imaptient in taking him to speech therapy, in doing speech therapy at home every day. But I am impatient when they are too slow to get dressed, for example.This is also an information about me: I am only impatient about trifles.

I will have to give some thought to the symptom of these thoughts after waking up. The patient hadn't mentioned these before, and that is not a symptom covered by Mez. that I know of.

'though I am impatient, I am impatient about trifles.' - See, this is one of the hallmarks of Mezerium. Irritated by small and irrelevant things, and then afterward recognizing that they are tiny things. The patient is aware that they have become impatient about something small, and even regrets it afterward.

When I open my eyes and it is not easy because in these kind of mornings I am very tired, these thoughts disappear and I am left with a low threshold of tolerance and a blocked up head, a sense of head cold and full nose but nothing comes out or very little.
 
albapapa last decade
Also very fuzzy head and difficult to concentrate in these conditions. I can read a line over and over and get nowhere. When there is a lot of mould I get very red and burning lips and generally the mucous membranes are dry and irritated included the genitals and some escoriation inside the ear. I am describing the symptoms clearly because this morning is one of those mornings.
 
albapapa last decade
However, I should add that a serious problem has disappeared after the natrum sulfuricum. I was very listless, I could not master the strength to do many of the things I had to do. For example i had a plan to go somewhere and I could not carry it out because the body was not ready to do it. After the natrum sul this problem together with the edema, especially in th elower legs has gone. I still suffer from water ritention.

A very hot bath in the morning seems indispensable to face the day.

I don't know if I said that I lived in Africa for two years teaching in the university of Ghana and I had to come back because I suffered from chronic malaria. I used a lot of quinine and to get rid of the plasmodium in the liver I had to take a course of very heavy quinine called primaquin which made me vomit constantly. This was eleven years ago. My problems however were anterior to that.

I think I forgot to mention something which could be important. At the age of thirty I was pregnant and as soon as this happened I became very depressed and suicidal, I have never been suicidal in my life before nor after. I felt either me or this baby and yet it was a voluntary pregnancy. But the actual pregnancy altered completely my state of mind. In the end there was no solution but have an abortion after few weeks. I have not desired children of my own and have adopted three african children. I have no regret, it was a physical condition, a matter of life and death. I am very happy about adopting my children.

Another characteristic which I have not mentioned yet is a very thick white mucus in the mouth that I have to remove with the fingers, especially inside the lips and the cheeks. Also this has become less frequent now, but still happens occasionally.
 
albapapa last decade
Since you've taken the Sul-ac, let's see what the response to that is. It may cure some symptoms, or other symptoms may predominate after it's use.
 
Homeopathy International 1 last decade
Today is the sixth day since I took the Sul-ac.
Symptoms:
allergic sinusitis
dryness of mucous membranes and escoriation in the ear
Impatiens
Irritability
Itchy scalp (thys symptom I forgot to mention it, but is always there. I should be able to wash my hair everyday)
Mould and pollen allergy with edema.
 
albapapa last decade
What was your general feeling on the Sul-Ac? Are you happy with it?
 
Homeopathy International 1 last decade
The symptoms are as above, I forgot to add filmy eyes, sometimes. I see no amelioration so far. The only real amelioration since I have started homeopathy has been the natrum sulfuricum for tiredness and edema, and the mezereum for the infected sinuses. These have been dramatic improvements because both symptoms were invalidating. The tiredness was listelesness that kept from carryin out everyday tasks and the pus in the nose brought on constant fever. However, if you think I should wait a bit longer to observe the sul ac, I have no objection.

This morning I woke up at six with a desire to pass water, but hardly any came out, it was a very uncomfortable sensation, like having to sqeeze myself to let out a trickle. This is not a new symptom, but one of my worst. It is an allergic reaction to some pollen and since few days the pollen season has started here, in fact I started feeling ill two days ago. This symptom is not one of the most frequent but quite recurrent with pollen allergy.
 
albapapa last decade
A this point, I think it's up to you. You know how you feel on the Sulph-Ac. My recommendation is Mezerium. But you are the patient, and you've felt how the different remedies have affected you.
