My sons cough has become worse alternating with a loud noise like a bark, I've had to give calpol for the fever, he is eating but not drinking much atal could this be an aggravation from the last remedy given? My other son has had similar and w me think his may of been aggravation and they both had remedies around the same time, I'm unsure of what to do thank you

Is someone able to help with my sons fever it is very high and calpol is not touching it he has been awake most if the night so guess he's a little restless although he's sitting still on the sofa he won't drink hardly anything his left cheek is pinker than the right one, he alternates with goosebumps so sometimes is covered up and when he doesn't get them I leave him uncovered he says his feet hurt a bit so expect a bit if aching limbs not to bad though he has a cough which sometimes has a bark to it, he feels very hot thanks in advance

Do i need to repeat dros if i only have a 30c?
 
pixie wood last decade
i'm sorry i always ask questions. my son has had the dros a few hours ago and woken up red hot again. very very hot, his nose is running a bit now and once he gets this i usually have croup or asthma to deal with. or could it be dros working. he seems pretty poorly. at the moment he is sat outside where he asked to be and the only way i can get fluid into him is keep making ice lollies with fresh apple juice and it is working, he seems better outside though and has asked to go out on his bike and we got so far and he just wants to be carried, hes quite wingey and grumpy on and off clingy. i canput him down but he winges alot,haven't had a smile all day his hands look a bit mottled when they go cold, he is very changeable in how he looks and this evening he looks rosy cheeked and is demanding to go for walks in the pram or being carried. His vest is wet from dribble and he never usually dribbles and now he won't even have the lollies he is down to not having any fluids I hope you can help his feet are also very cold And when asleep he sometimes makes sudden jerky movements like he's startled

It is unlikely he is sensitive to a particular potency. I have never seen this in 20 years of practice. It is most likely that he has been given a lot of the wrong remedies.

However, you can choose as it is your son.

If he is worse then it is possible the remedy is working. Aggravation should follow the dose after a few hours in acutes, so this should be a good sign.

Don't repeat the dose while he is worse. Make sure you have the 200c on hand so we can move up to that if necessary.

Thank you I will order 1st thing, it's 1:30am and his fever is very high and he hasn't drank for a long time and nappy has been dry for over 12hours, well I did not know this about 200c and each time he has had one the aggravation or reaction has been far too much, interesting as I was also told that after one hour I should see some improvement from an acute and I have always assumed it hasn't worked, ok so now im getting to know the correct way this all works and as I have wrote this my son has sat up and had a drink, thank you
 
pixie wood last decade
So is he getting better or not. I cannot tell from that last report.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Yes lots better, after the last reply the fever has been much lower and I think it has gone now, he has a slight wheeze but not too bad and the coughing fits are very bad but he is eating a little and drinking more although not as much as he should be, a remarkable difference compared to this time yesterday thank you
 
pixie wood last decade
Ah excellent! I am very glad to hear it. For the moment don't give him any more of the remedy unless he relapses.

This does make me wonder about your other son as well. If the Spongia doesn't help we can consider Drosera for him as well. I suspect that your sons do both have whooping cough, which doctors are loathe to diagnose in vaccinated children.

Regardless of the actual pathogen responsible, it certainly does suggest a strong tubercular taint in both of them.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Well funnily enough the Dr said the eldest had whooping cough until she saw he was vaccinated, my other son isn't and she got them mixed up, and whooping cough is in this area now, I will leave the eldest as he does seem better but has terrible wind and one bout of watery stool but this could be the antibiotics,
So all this time I have seen a homeopath and he has said give it an hour or 2 for acute remedy to work then move into the next this has been wrong and I have thought this isn't working but needed longer, sometimes they respond as quick as a click of the fingers and it's truly amazing, you say about tub both boys have responded well to this in the past bit I an concerned about my 2 year old having too much of this as someone made a comment about this when I 1st posted, should I be worried?
 
pixie wood last decade
Yeah I see that alot. Doctors are often blind to the evidence in front of them, because their blind faith in vaccination. Orthodox medicine's own PR often seems to disable a physician's intelligence.

I would not be worried about the Tub in the past. This cannot be responsible for what is happening now.

Hi David my son is coughing so much he has sicked up blood he has a severe coughing fit every few hours it does seemed helped a bit with a drink but thats if he'l drink one he's a bit reluctant but like I said the coughing can go on for 10 mins or even more can give anything
Thank you
 
pixie wood last decade
i'm going too see how itgoes later hes still not drinking enough but took him to GP and he thinks it is whooping cough, wants him on antibiotics for 2 weeks but i am reluctant at the moment, i have had a slight upset tummy and don't feel special so think i have caught the dreaded tummy bug from my husband. i do hope the kidsdo not get it... you can see why my homeopath has given up with us lol
 
pixie wood last decade
Repeat the drosera. I would actually prefer you gave him the 200c asap, but repeat the 30c if that is what you have. Give him a dose every 4 hours, 3 doses maximum.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Hi David i have had no internet and also i did a silly thing with remedy please please understand i have had almost aweek of no sleep i am very light headed not eaten and completely drained i have never made this mistake before but i got the remedy down from where i put it to redose and looks like i gave him spongia by accident i obviously got this out when spongia was recommended right before dros and i also said spongia doesnt work so maybe it has, although i heard the whoop in his cough last night, he has finally asked for food after not eating for days he s drinking a bit more but still not quite enough, is pretty clingy likes going for walks he's quite sleepy too. he is coughing but does not sound like whooping cough in the day but it did last night. and he also has not been sick since the other day, i really cannot believe i did this but i really am not on form i have also come down with a virus on top of no sleep,
The Dr has phoned me to make sure he is on the antibiotics as they knew i wasn't keen and they laid it on thick and scared me into starting him which i obviously regret, will this interfere.
Very sorry i have not been in contact
 
pixie wood last decade
If you gave him the wrong remedy, just give him the right one now. The Drosera will overwrite the Spongia.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
ok so you do not think the spongia has helped enough? would it stop it completely in its tracks? i know it has before but i know this cough is stubborn. and will antibiotics disrupt the process of the remedy? forgot to mention he is usually very independant and is wanting me to hold the drink for him to have and also the spoon when he eats, thank you
Since this post he Is less clingy eating without me helping and drinking by himself, he's happier in himself but certainly coughs more in the evening and has coughed a bit this evening it sounds loose but does change and was whoopy last night, the spongia really did work for fever I'm positive of this

Which child are you talking about now? For your 2 year old, in this thread, I prescribed Droser which you said really helped him. For your older child I prescribed Spongia which you also say has helped him. My understanding is you accidentally gave your 2 year old Spongia, so I have said to just give Drosera which was the remedy that he should have been given.

If you want to make a thread for yourself we can see about getting a remedy for you as well. It looks like it is more of an emotional thing for you.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
That is correct, I gave spongia by accident to the one you said give drosera but i was just checking you still wanted me too even though this seemed to help with the fever and he has improved in himself, I will give drosera now though if this is correct his cough doesnt sound dry at present, will do a Thread for me thank you
 
pixie wood last decade
Ok wait. If spongia helpe him then wait. Didn't he get Spongia from someone else before? Kadwa perhaps?
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
My homeopath has tried spongia before with h
 
pixie wood last decade
My old homeopath has tried spongia before with him and it has not worked, how Long do I give to see full improvement i will see how the cough is tonight and report but we have not had any coughing that ended in being sick since but did have a whoop last night, I will report tomorrow
You are very kind doing this for free I am SO grateful for this
 
pixie wood last decade
So if he is better, just wait. It may be that both children have the same acute, which fits Spongia. What that might mean to him in the long term is unknown. It could just be the remedy for this moment.

I would wait 24 hours from the last dose, if he is still unwell repeat the remedy. If he relapses at all repeat the remedy. If he continues to improve wait and do nothing.
