Too low a potency will cause aggravations - his vital energy flares up to defend against it when it is too weak. So wait one more day, then give him a dose of 200c.

Oh! So it being too low could cause symptoms of the remedy? Not just being the wrong remedy?

Yes. If the potency is too low a person can aggravate more, because it simply irritates the vital energy and is not strong enough to shift it.

ok - I will wait and try the 200c then.

You only need to give a remedy if the symptoms require it. If Cuprum is his deepest remedy, it will heal anything, protect him against anything.

You judge by his reactions, his symptoms, his improvements. Once he is a healthy balanced 'normal' child (whatever that really is lol) then you know the remedy has gone deeply.

He was being given too much then. The remedy was constanly renewing the aggravation, not allowing him to experience the positive secondary 'push back' from the vital force.
It is so hard for me to judge what is going on via forum posts. These things are always easier to determine in person. But your vigiliance is appreciated - I am heavily relying on you to relay to me what is going on.
Continue to watch and wait. Really good work on your part.
30c can aggravate someone for a week or two, one dose. The potency is a medium level one.

He will be experiencing that secondary effect now. One aspect of that effect is to use natural excretory systems to detoxify and rebalance his system. The only reason to intervene with a remedy is if his whole state changes (so a new remedy is needed) or he clearly is suffering unusually. If the body begins discharging, but he continues to improve in his behaviour and other symptoms, we have the correct Direction of Cure.
Dr. Tinus Smits wrote an interesting book about the treatment of Autism with homoeopathy. His experience was that many of the patients developed discharges as they improved, very often discharges that had been suppressed earlier in their life.

Ok, he might be needed a redose again soon, I just am not sure if it is the full moon or what. He has been ridiculously silly, acting strange and doing this robot thing with his arms...can't sit still or stop talking all day. Ton of excess energy, constantly making goofy faces and bobbing his head back and forth. He shows little patience for things like practicing writing his letters and will whine and fuss a lot and give up easily. Constantly complaining at dinner time and won't eat much at all. Just basically nonstop motion and verbosity, and sometimes cross with transitions or being asked to do something he does not want to do. Following me everywhere, into the bathroom, etc. Was upset earlier when he wanted a friend to come play and they couldn't. Also asking me for candy a lot, whenever he is bored, he wants to eat sweets (I don't give him much of this). I don't know if I should redose...symptom picture doesn't seem exactly the same...or if I should wait a little longer, or what. I know if I redose I need to dilute more since the aggravation was for 8-9 days. I wouldn't be questioning things so much if that hadn't happened...please advise on what I should do, Dr. Kempson, thanks!
ETA: Cheeks are pinkish and a little bumpy (this has happened off and on before).
He has had a small bit of chocolate each day for the past few days, I can't tell right away if this effects him, but it might.

I actually think we might need to retake the case. I am not happy to just keep on with a remedy when things are clearly not changing. children are highly responsive - or at least they should be.
Can you detail how the picture is not the same?

♡ brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Ok. I think SOME things are changing, although I am not sure if it is due to this remedy or different vitamins, etc. The things that are better are he is not so constipated and is going regularly, mostly every day. He is falling asleep within 5-10 minutes most nights (this used to take 2+ hours before homeopathy!) Able to calm himself more easily, and more responsive overall. The hyperness has been worse the past few days which was why I was thinking we might need a redose. Usually when I would redose, he would be getting increasingly anxious, rigid, and angry (which he is, a little, not as much as in the past though). These things ARE coming back, but not to the same degree, and the hyperactivity and dilliness is more now. It was the 3rd of December the last time he was given a dose, so it has been a while. The aggravation after that lasted about a week.
ETA: None of the symptoms are exactly NEW, per se, its just that some are less and some are more than, so overall it looks different then when I usually think we need a redose. I hope that makes sense. I am ok with retaking the case though if you think that would make it easier to see what is going on!

Alright lets do this methodically.
First step is to redose. We need to increase the dilution though to avoid his typical aggravations (or reduce them).
How much water did you last use?

I used 2 dilution cups - 8 oz (a full cup) in the first, 4 oz (1/2 cup) in the second.
Do you really think that things are not changing with this remedy?

Ok repeat the dose, but use 3 cups instead of 2.
2 hits, 1 drop, into a full cup, stir, then 1 teaspoon into another full cup, stir, then 1 teaspoon into third cup but fill that to 1/4. Stir and give him a teaspoon out of that.
Make sure each cup is a clean one, not the same cup used (unless it is thoroughly washed out with hot water not detergent).
Depending on his reaction I may retake the case, focussing on those things that are not changing. Cuprum may be a partial similar. We will need to go back to determining the basic problem - is he Animal, Mineral, Plant, Nosode, Impoderable, Sarcode, Fungi, Bacteria?

Alright, I will try that. It may cut down the aggravation, but it might still last a couple days (vs. a week) - I don't know why he is so sensitive. He is like this with every homeopathic he has taken, it is frustrating. I have never heard of some of those categories. Only animal, mineral, plant, and nosode.

He is still very loud and hyper and not listening.
I don't know, I am frustrated. I have been using homeopathy since last April and it has been a rollercoaster. Almost all of the changes I have seen have not stayed, just during the 'good phase'. The only thing is now it takes him much shorter to fall asleep at night and he seems to pass stool more often, but both of these things could be due to the vitamin supplements I am giving, as they didn't start happening till after that. I am wondering if we should retake the case again. It has been 9 months and almost no changes have stuck. My mother doesn't see any difference in him.

Right now he is running around shrieking and screaming and making all sorts of noises, and knocking over chairs, completely out or control. It is driving me nuts.
allicando last decade
Yes let's start again.
There were changes, but it does appear that they do not 'stick'. Something still hasn't been understood for my part.
This implies strongly that the miasm in the case is wrong. The miasm is the energy source for his disease, while it is running it will continue recreating problems.
Let me revisit the first strong of posts, and see what we can do.
