When i walk, all of a sudden the strength of the leg is lost and it buckles. I noticed it some 6 years ago and it used to occur once a year or two. Now the frequency has increased.

Of late I get a numb sensation and dull pain on both the legs.
My family doctor advised me Renerve injections-10 and a few other vitamin and calcium tablets.I also ahve oedema on feet, front face of the legs and thighs.

Thank you. There is some improvement. Is there any tonic or mother tincture for nerves.

I have another problem

I have a problem of excess secretion of phlegm in my respiratory tract mainly in the naso-pharyngeal and throat region. Can you please suggest a suitable remedy.

Thanks - rajapsc
 
rajapsc last decade
You may take a single dose of Pulsatilla 200 (not to be repeated within 15 days) on need.
You may take 3 pellets of calc phos 6x daily for 7 days. Then 3 pellets of kali phos 6x for another 7 days. Then there should be a gap of 15 days.

This should work as a nerve tonic and would also help in your problem of excess secretion of phlegm in your respiratory tract.

Dear Dr. Kadwa,

I find in ABChomeo forum conflicting views on Bach’s flower remedies as a therapy. Even in the internet, most of the posting say that there is no experimental proof of the efficacy of the flower remedies. With whatever information I collected from Bach’s web site, the emphasis is more on the problems of mind and mental conditions. I have also seen your postings on flower remedies and very lucid explanation in this forum. We also find a lot of homeo medicines work on mental conditions. It is quite possible some remedies such as rescue remedy are good and naturally popularity of this system grows. Moreover it would be very difficult to find the persons of similar mental conditions for research study. I don’t know how one can conclude which system is better for mental conditions.

As a homeo practitioner with long practice in alleviating the human sufferings as also a practitioner with good knowledge of flower remedies, what are your views on flower remedies vis-à-vis homeopathy? For health problems arising out of mental turmoils, are the flower remedies a better alternative to remedies in homeopathy? The person now undergoes series of ailments unheard of in her medical history before and the doctors say physically all the parameters are OK but there could be something due to mental worries.

May I request your views on this? Thank you – pscraja.

Dear pcsraja,

There is no conflict between homeopathy and bach flower remedies. Similarly there is no conflict between homeopathy and biochemic remedies.

Dr Edward Bach was a homeopath and he evolved the therapy of Bach Flower Remedies to simplify homeopathy. For the sake of simplifying homeopathy Dr Schuessler formulated the therapy of tissue salts.

But let me confine myself to homeopathy and flower remedies as we are discussing the significance of mental state in therapeutics. Homeopathic remedy selection is quite complicated and there is also a possibility of remedy proving by the patient. But somehow if the right remedy is selected it does wonders and the patient experiences magical relief.

In the state of shock many homeopathic remedies may be indicated like Aconite, Belladonna, Staphysagria, Ignatia and many others. But if one doesn't have expertise to work out the right remedy one may take Bach Flower Rescue Remedy. Here we have nothing hard and fast with dosing, potency selection etc.

Now comes the most significant question, whether a person can change his mind or mental faculties by taking homeopathic remedies or bach flower remedies? The answer is no. The remedies will give a little respite, which the patient has to use and change himself. All Indian scriptures deal with sacrifice and renunciation. These are the processes that clean one's mind. Our mind can't be calmed unless it is purified.

All people on this earth including you and me are suffering for what we did to others knowingly or unknowingly. People who are making us suffer are not at the root of our sufferings. Love and forgiveness are the greatest qualities and these can be earned only by paying huge cost in the form of sacrifice and renunciation.

You will agree that all remedies fall short of destination we want to reach. Homeopathy and Bach Flower remedies are helpful but they have their own limitations.

i hope that you find answers to your queries in what i wrote and you don't feel that i missed your point!!

Dear Dr. Kadwa,

In 2009, when I had a sudden spurt in BP, my cardiologist advised for a blood and urine test which showed a creatine level of 1.9 and proteinurea. I was given Telma 80 for this. I had also undergone a kidney function test which was normal and the right kidney is smaller than the left. After six months, when I had taken the tests, creatine came down to 1.7 and is stay put at that. The symptoms of proteinurea is still present – white frothy urine. I have lost hopes with Telma to reduce it.

Is there a cure for proteinurea in homeopathy? Kindly advise. --- pscraja

Please take 5 drops of Solidago Q in the morning and evening with some 20 ml water for one month and see whether it helps.

Thank you Dr. Kadwa. There is an improvement after using solidago. Though I haven’t checked the presence of protein in the urine by a lab test, I don’t find the froth in the commode after urination. I would anyway check after another month.

I need your advice on another problem. Quite often, I am getting the muscle cramps in the legs especially on the lower extremities including the feet in the night in the bed when I stretch my legs in some positions. This drives me out of the bed and ony after I stand on my legs and massaging with some pain balms such as Amruthanjan the cramps are relieved. However the pain subsides after a couple of hours. Allopathic doctors suggested that I should take Vitamin B12 and Vitamin E. Accordingly I am taking renerve plus in the morning and evion forte in the night for the past two months. Even now I have the attack once or twice a month. My allopathic doctor tells me that it is quite common among the elderly vegetarians. Is there any homeo mother tincure as a tonic for this? May I have your views on this ? Thank you.

Pscraja.

Please take Rhus Tox 200 in the morning and evening for 2 days and see how it affects.

You may also a dose of Rhus Tox 200 whenever you have cramps.

One dose means '2 pills' or '2 drops in some 20 ml water'.

Dear Dr. Kadwa,
I am taking the following cardiac medicines presently.
Telma 40 1-0-0
Ecospirin 150mg 0-1-0
cardivas 6.25 0-0-1
simvotin EZ10 0-0-1

I had a CABG in 2007 and since then I have been having the above drugs. For the past few months, I feel constricted in the chest with very strong pulse preventing me sleeping on my back.

Recently when I was going thro the Materia medica I saw two drugs which matched the syptoms.

They are Natrum Mur and Cactus grandiflorus. When I checked for further details, I am cautioned that it may have adverse side effects for those who are using betablockers and ace inhibitors and I don't know if the medicines I am taking presently are falling in these categories.

Kindly advise me if I can safely use Cactus.

Thanking you.

pscraja.

You may take a single dose of Cactus 200 and see how that affects in 15 days. It is safe in 200 potency and if not repeated often.

Dear Dr. Kadwa,
Thank you for your suggestion. I have started taking in 200 potency. There is some improvement.

I have another query. I have seen in some case studies, potency is referred as Phos 0/1, 0/2, 0/3. What does this refer to. Can you direct me to a link wherein I would be able understand different methods of potency scales - I have heard of decimal, centismal and LM.

Thanks - pscraja
