INSTRUCTONS FOR SPLIT DOSING

Firstly, you need to create a separate dosing bottle. Get a bottle with a dropper, 15-30mls in size, and fill it with a mixture of water and alcohol (5 parts to 1 part). Dissolve 2 granules or 2 drops of the medicine you bought from the pharmacy into this mixture. Your doses will be made from this bottle.

Hit the bottle firmly against the palm of your hand, or another elastic surface like a book. It should be a firm hit not a tap. 2 hits is enough to begin with, and should not be increased unless it is clear that it is needed. The water in this bottle will 'remember' the number of times you have hit it, so that subsequent doses will be stronger (necessary to overcoming the resistance of your disease).

Place 1 drop into an amount of water - I may start with anything from 1/4-1 full cup (62ml-250ml) depending on the sensitivity of the patient. Stir thoroughly and take 1 teaspoon into the mouth. Throw the rest of the cup away.

This is one dose. Repeat doses would be started from the 2 hits on the bottle.

Each step of this process can be adjusted to reduced aggravation or to increase the effect of the medicine. In order to be able to do this, it is important to measure each step (count the hits, the drops, measure the water etc).

Start with 1/4 cup of water.

I took the first dose last night but haven't noticed any change of any kind.

Remedies take several days to begin to 'kick in', and you may not see improvement until a week has passed. It may also take several doses before you see marked changes.

Generally the homoeopathic aggravation will start within the first 3 days, it will peak at 3-5 days, and improvement begins once the aggravation recedes.

yesterday afternoon I noticed that my blocked nose was beginning to clear. This morning I woke up at 5 am and I could breathe through my nose. I just lay there enjoying the sensation. I couldn't get back to sleep and after about hour I started to feel a bit stuffed up again. Then I started to feel the vibrations though not as bad as usual and I didn't get a headache.
 
winnieandco last decade
also I forgot to mention. The previous morning I woke with the most ferocious headache, the worst I've had for ages but after getting up it went away fairly quickly.

Sounds like it could be working. Obviously I wouldn't expect one dose to do everything, and there may be some 'back and forth' improvement and relapse for awhile too.

Once a week has passed we will assess the overall response and decide how to proceed.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Should I continue taking a dose every two days?
 
winnieandco last decade
Only do the 3 doses in total, then stop. Too many doses will aggravate you.

After having done 3 doses I am better than when I started out. The vibrations are less intense and my nose is partially clear. I have been getting little niggly pains in and around my ears and also at the base of my skull but nothing that lasts for more than a minute or so.
 
winnieandco last decade
Ok that is great. A good start. Now what we do is wait for about a week to see how the remedy continues to change things, and how stable those changes are. Repeat doses, while often necessary, must be timed correctly to avoid too much disturbance to your system.

What I would like you to do, seeing as how the remedy appears to be the right one, is get hold of 200c as well for later. While it is possible 30c could complete the cure, I suspect that it is more likely we would need to go up in potency sometime in the future.

Thank you David, I will report back in a few days. Meanwhile I have ordered the 200c.

Complications - This morning I woke with a sore throat spreading up to my ear and post nasal drip. Everyone around me has either had a cough or a cold for the last few days and I had naively thought that I could avoid it. I waited a short while to make sure this didn't seem to be connected to my treatment but I'm sure it isn't. I took one dose of Hepar Sulph and the throat is a bit better. I'm sorry if this was the wrong thing to do. I didn't want to wait until it really took hold as everyone else seems to have it quite bad. In any case I thought that the cold symptoms would interfere with the assessment of the remedy.
 
winnieandco last decade
Actually it is more likely a second remedy will interfere but I understand your position.

It is quite likely the Theridion would help you through this event as well actually, although one always has to confirm the symptom before taking any remedy.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
My cold seems to be taking the fast track. It was pretty bad yesterday and again today but I think it will be over soon, in another day or so. Will we have to start over with the theridion?
 
winnieandco last decade
Not necessarily.

Are the symptoms of the cold your normal symptoms but worse?
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
I have a running nose (mostly clear and watery)and teary eyes and a dry gritty feeling in my throat, and I am sneezing a lot. I also have a headache which is very like what I normally get and I am also getting the vibrations and a slightly woozy feeling.
 
winnieandco last decade
Then repeat the Theridion. It doesn't sound like you have moved out of your chronic state into a new one that needs a different remedy.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
forgot to mention, the cold settles in my ears so that they are congested and I cannot hear as well as usual.
 
winnieandco last decade
6I have taken the one dose which has helped the headache. Am I to take another or just to wait?
Thanks
 
winnieandco last decade
Just wait. Remedies can continue to work for days and weeks afterwards.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
my cold has cleared up (and surprisingly quickly) apart from an occasional hoarseness which I am sure will be gone tomorrow. My theridion 200 has arrived. It says 200CK, I presume that is the same thing as 200C. I am about where I was before I got the cold. I am still getting some vibrations in the morning and my nose feels less stuffed up than it used to although not entirely clear.
 
winnieandco last decade
Don't move to 200 yet, doing that too quickly will cause a huge upset. Needs to be done at the right time.

For the moment lets see what we can get out of 30c.

Hit the bottle 4 times and repeat the dose. Just one.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
I haven't noticed any change for the better this time and this morning I woke with another bad headache and vibrations.
 
winnieandco last decade
Ok in that case take a single dose of the 200, as you first did with the 30.

I took one dose of 200c last night. I will update you when I notice any change.
