Sameer,
I took the dose as you directed with pellets. No much difference again.
This makes me think are we going in the right direction? Why the pain is not going? Are we missing something?
Please suggest,
Thanks,
Rajesh

It would probably be a better idea to take a detailed case and prescribe a remedy based on the symptoms. Usually side-effects from a homoeopathic medicine wear off quickly, if not then we are actually dealing with a problem that is yours, not the remedy. Once your own vital force gets involved in maitaining your symptoms, then you have to treat as a normal case.

Kent says the following in his lectures on homeopathic philosophy
'These are oversensitive patients who have received repeated doses of medicine after the medicine and dose that was homoeopathic to their condition was administered.
If a drug that is really homoeopathic to the case is continued, after enough has been given to cure, a miasm is established in some cases by that drug, and this miasm imitates one of the chronic diseases or one of the acute miasms in accordance with its ability.
I have a patient who has been suffering for seven or eight years from the effects of Lachesis.
I have patients who are suffering from Sulphur and other deep acting medicines which have been repeated too often when truly indicated, or repeated in sensitive patients when not truly indicated.
The symptoms of the drug crop out periodically years after it has been abused, and the periodical attacks are perfectly typical of the drug.'
The best bet in cases where symptoms started after the abuse of a medicine lies among the anti-dotes of that remedy.
You can read the case below where a patient suffering from Sulphur effects was provided relief through rotating among the anti-dotes
http://www.abchomeopathy.com/forum2.php/175079/6
Of-course one must pick the closest anti-dote according to the symptoms being exhibited.
Rajesh, any other effects you got from taking the Nux-v, please make a comprehensive list of problems that began there ? For each symptom also list the sensation, what gives relief, what makes it worse, and times of aggravation ?

Sameer,
As I said in the first post I took the Nux-Vomica for around 3-4 months 30c 4-5 pellets for 3-4 days as one dose, initial month every week, than every two weeks and than once in a month or when symptoms comes back.
Nux-Vomica did removed hey fever(pollen allergy) like 95% and my old symptom of constipation and acidity at good level.
The muscle cramps, spasm and contraction(I guess) have started in late fall 2010 when I felt symptoms of hey fever coming back and took one more dose of Nux-Vomica as above. This symptoms did not start right after it but gradually. I think I took it seriously only when it started paining in left leg even walking.
I was drinking coffee around 2-3 cups everyday. I stopped drinking coffee when I started the homeopathic remedy.
I used to work out but since last 6 months I am not able to walk freely without pain. I can't run. If I try, right from the bottom of my leg till the hip join I feel pain. I also feel pain in lower back. The intensity is so high I just can't run. Slow walking is less painful and I am living on it right now for any movements. Any fast walk also give me pain. I also felt pain in different parts of body like hands, back, neck, and back muscles also. It is more like of a spasm or cramps for specific movement and rest will lower it.
I have more pain in left leg than the other. It is mostly left leg which I feel pain. If I run every step makes me feel pain in joint and muscles.
Hot water or warm weather seems to help me. The pain is low in morning but increases through day. Any physical movement increases the pain.
Other than this lots of bolting, gastric issues like constipation and occasional acidity came back.
I tend to sleep at late night and wake up late morning. To wake up early in the morning is now too hard. After office in evening I feel a lot tired and avoid doing anything.
I am a vegetarian and occasionally like once in a week have drinks. I am 30 year old and 140 lbs in weight with lean body.
Sameer, I tried to put in most of the things which I think can help. If I have missed out any thing or you need more information please let me know.
I really appreciate the efforts, help and constant guidance I get from you and other members. Thank you very much all.

Did the medicine have any impact on your behavior ?
Also, are there anythings you would like to correct in your attitude, behavior, mindset etc ?

sameervermani last decade
I don't see any difference or impact in behavior.
I am a calm person. I don't see any change in my behavior or attitude.
What I notice is my energy levels are too low and because of it I don't like to do any physical activities. Even in morning also I don't feel fresh. All the time I want to lay down or sleep.
Evenings around 3-4 PM I feel sleepy like anything while working. This have increased in past 2-3 months.
Other than these I don't see any noticeable changes in my behavior/attitude.
If this did not answer what you looking for please send me specific questions and I will try to answer those.

Hi Rajesh,
Please take a single dose of Sulphur 30c on an empty stomach in the morning, and report back after 1 week.

Please throw some light on your recommendation as I have seen few threads here only for sulfur side effects.
Please explain one dose with pellets, or confirm it's same as above.
Thanks,

Side effects only happen from indiscriminate use. There is nothing special about Sulphur, as improper use will result in problems even with other deep acting remedies. It just so happens that Sulphur seems to be prescribed for more cases than it should be.
Kent says the following about Sulphur 'It seems that the less a physician knows of the Materia Medica the oftener he gives Sulphur'
A single dose will not cause side effects.
You can take a dose in water:
1 pellet can be dissolved in 250 ml spring water, stir, and take a teaspoon.

Sameer,
I took the remedy as you directed.
No noticeable difference in pain. Now I got pain in right leg too but mostly it is muscle pain and not joint pain as in left leg.
I think my pollen allergy is coming back. Spring is starting here. I noticed that whenever the pollen count go above 3 I feel snizing and runny nose. Today was bad as I sniz more than 15 times in a day with some runny nose. The main pollen in my area right now is tree like maple, elm etc. My allergy test suggest I have tree and grass pollen allery.
I get occasional muscle cramps in rest of the body too.
Please suggest next step with more details and what you think about it. Is there any time frame you see to cure this?
Thanks,
Rajesh

Any anxiety or fears ?
Any other negative feelings ?
Cannot predict a time frame, with the right remedy the progress can be very swift, but if we don't get the right remedy, it can be a slow process.

Now I got all of my pollen symptoms back and in full strength does it means the effects of Nux Vomica are gone.
Thanks

I get sneezing all day long. It's kind of I keep sneezing four to five times in a row right now and keep happening until I come inside house and be in for more than couple of hours. Once that is done runny nose. Eye itching also keep happening. Feel little cough too. The inside of the nose is irritated with redness. In peak season when I woke up in morning my nose is chocked up, clearing which will come out with red, may be blood.
If I am in house it stops after couple of hours. If I step out side it starts again.
The place I live in have high tree pollen which I am allergic to.
Sometimes I feel headache too.

Sameer,
I think you may be researching on this. Right now it is raining here and so pollen levels are near to zero, so I don't have much trouble but it is expected to go high in 3-4 days.
Please reply
Thanks,
Rajesh

I do not have enough odd symptoms to find a remedy right now.
Please think of anything that bothers you (mentally or physically), and try to list them all.
For every physical symptom, I need:
Location
Sensation
What makes it better/worse, times of the day etc.
Any other symptoms in any other body part which accompany this symptom
Also mention general things which make you better/worse.

sameervermani last decade
These symptoms I have right now.
Muscle Cramps,
Location -
inner thigh, Joints of the leg like knee and ankle.(left leg constant but right leg also get cramps occasionally, back shoulder and hands too have occasional cramps), regular pain in lower back.
Sensation -
Constant pain, Cramps
major pain is in inner thigh of left leg.
What makes it better/worse -
Heat makes it better like hot weather, water or hot patch.
Any movement like walking, running gives instant cramp, any exercise or movement for any muscles like pull ups will give cramps in hand and shoulder and upper back.
times of the day etc -
as day goes on the pain gradually increase. Rest at night decrease it.
Location - Upper respiratory system
Sensation - continues sneezing through out the day, running nose, slight headache, irritated eyes, blood when you try to clean chocked nose(blood also found in nose in morning just after waking up)
What makes it better/worse -
If I stay in closed area with filtered air like AC makes it better.
If I go or stay out side like near plants/trees/woods it makes it worse.
times of the day etc -
Happens all the time. Night as I be in my room with central ac with filtered air it seems good. During sleep I only get chocked up nose.
Any other symptoms in any other body part which accompany this symptom - Headache and some times body pain.
Mental Symptom - feel sleepy all time. Eyes remain heavy.
General better/worse -
Hot/Warm weather, Hot water helps in Cramps/Pain.
Being in closed room/space improves pollen symptoms.
I have couple of thoughts.
As my pollen symptoms are back and in full strength it looks that the antidotes for Nux Vomica have worked. But on the other side the symptoms of Nux Vomica - Side effects are still there and no improvement in it.
I am getting confused now. What I read about Homeopathy remedy is that it cures the symptoms which it cause if taken as row form.
Is it true? If this is true than does Nux-Vomica is the cure for my both kind of symptoms?
Dr.s out there please mark your views on this. Your inside or direction can help solve this complicated case.
Looking forward for your suggestions and help,
Thanks,
Rajesh

Dear Rajesh,
Please talk about the following:
1) How attached are you with your family ?
2) How easily do you make new friends ?
3) Tell about your inclination towards ice-creams or ice in drinks in general.
