The description points to Sulphur. HI to decide.
Niel Madhavan last decade
I'm comfortable with a perscription of Sulph. My preference would be to get more information from the patient. If you'd like to take this patient from here, you are welcome to.
♡ Homeopathy International 1 last decade
really appreciate the responses people, sorry for being so brief.
To answer the above questions I am muscular, I sweat from my forehead mainly but sometimes all over (during my workouts). I can be lazy sometimes but generally im pretty active as I enjoy working out.
I keep to myself and im kind of quiet. However im pretty open within my circle of friends, I enjoy going out and watching movies. Also enjoy going on holidays.
I made the silly mistake of already ordering arnica montana tablets a few days ago, is there any point taking them since you guys are pointing to sulphur as the right remedy? Thanks for the help.

Hi
Please take a singlw wet dose of Sulphur 200 on a SINGLE DAY ONLY.
You would need to dissolve 2 drops / pills of the remedy in 100ml of mineral water. Allow to dissolve for 10 minutes. Shake the bottle vigorously 10-15 types and take 1 teaspoon from it as one dose. Discard the rest.
Let us know of your condition 7 days from taking the remedy.

Niel

Hi Niel,
How are you doing today?
Good suggestion to start with the anti-Psoric chief remedy!
But, I would like to learn from the expertise, skill and experience of Jewish Homeopath (Homeopathy International 1). As he took a lot of information from the patient, then, he must treat his patient and provide an opportunity for others to learn from him, the case taking, his prescription, and his case management.
Neil, please keep up the good work and stay blessed!
Regards
Nawaz

nawazkhan, I agree with the Sulph. perscription. The first response was lacking much important info. I find information about the patients body type, and physical traits, to be important, and the patient had left them out. When the patient filled in the important info, I became much more comfortable with the Sulph. perscription.
Notice the info that I wanted from the patient before being comfortable of a perscription.
'Can you tell us more about your general body type? Are you fat, thin, muscular, etc?
Are you active? Lazy? What are your activities like?
Please tell us more about yourself. Your personality, interests, social relations, etc.'

ok before I send my order through can I get another opinion on whether or not sulphur is the correct choice?
its my first time taking any sort of remedy from here and im kinda scared/nervous that it might not be the right remedy and that I might see some awful side effects from it. No disrespect to the guys that advised me above I just want to be cautious since this is my first time taking any type of remedy.

- Yes
bump for clarification, why cant I just take a higher dose?
- Homeopathy works best if the principle of minimum dosing is used.
