The remedies work on a different level to your pharmaceutical drugs. Those drugs will create problems in the long term for cure as they are usually suppressive and quite toxic, but they cannot prevent the homoeopathic medicine from helping.

It may be that you will need more frequent dosing to deal with the suppressive nature of the drugs. We will have to see.

I am not sure how well that can be done here. When I help patients to come off pyschiatric medication there are usually a number of crises that need to be managed - it is a fairly intensive hands on process that requires alot of managment and contact.

Medication can create new problems, hide old ones, even change the problems into something unrecognizable until the medication is stopped - all these things can mean that the original remedy no longer is indicated and a new one is needed. It can be a complex process.

Yes keep waiting. If the aggravation has worn off, you should start to see some kind of improvement beginning soon. If the remedy is not correct then things will not change (although that can be an issue with the potency as well).

On the simillimum many major problems will change for the better. On a partially correct medicine sometimes only one or two problems will be affected. At this stage it is too early to know what will happen, until it happens.

If the remedy is good for you, you should begin to feel better in yourself, and better in some general ways (energy, sleep, appetite). After a short while physical symptoms will start to improve. The order that happens, and the degree it occcurs, is highly individual.

Pulsatilla and Nat-mur are completely different remedies - someone needing one constitutionally is unlikly to need the other (however acute situations might call for radically different remedies).

All patients have their own blueprints for getting well. Until you begin giving medicines to them it is not possible to know what the rules for their cure will be. The process after application of a remedy is to observe the changes, and judge what to do next based on the reaction.

Homoeopathy solves all problems by correcting the way the body heals. When this problem is corrected, anything that can heal, will heal, without a doubt.

If your remedy is correct, it will reorder those control systems, and healing will flow quite naturally to all parts of the body that need it.

There is no predicting what you might need next. At their core those 2 remedies are not that similar, but after a medicine helps you, there is no way to know for sure what might happen next (and so which remedy might be called for in the following stages of your cure).

It is quite possible the orthodox medication is creating an ongoing problem for the remedies.

What I would like you to do is get hold of the LM potencies instead, as they are more suitable to people who are on daily doses of pharmaceutical medicine.

Nat-mur 0/1 is where we should start.

Nat-mur covers:

Pain, knee, on walking
Pain, knee, patella
Pain, knee, hollow of, on walking
Pain, general, ascending stairs
Pain, stitching (sharp), knees /hollow of knees/ patella

So yes, this remedy can help this problem as well.

And actually if you have to order the remedy, I would actually get you to order 0/2 as well.

In that case repeat the 30c, but you will need to increase the level of dilution.

Increase the amount of water that you put the single drop in, to a full cup (250ml). Take one more dose and let me know how you feel after 3 days. We may need to do more frequent dosing.
