Just to update since yesterday i started getting headaches again. they had stopped for 5 days after having them for 8 days. i do not usually get this, it feels like a migraine and i feel nauseas with this , parecetomol are not completely curing this, i feel very tired too and was in bed asleep by 9pm last night and i usually stay up for hours even if tired, i hope this is the remedy working!

Hi David I have has headaches since Wednesday and they can become quite bad they are not always in the same place and sometimes above the eyes and I feel sick with them I am not sure if this is the remedy acting or the headaches I had before the. Remedy are back although they feel different I am concerned I know it is early days but what changes should I expect over what amount of time as these bad heads are a concern thank you for your time?

Hi David the headaches have gone again just so you know and I also had a very slight panic attack a couple of days ago which I haven't had for a long time and now im a little light headed now and then, could this be the remedy still it's been 8 or 9 days since taking it,
Thank you

Hi David i am not expecting miracles over night but not to sure theres been to much change, headaches have stopped again and i am still not want to socialise and would rather be at home, probably the weather not helping. also my Son may get a sniffle and my anxiety goes up at the thought of him getting a cold because of croup and asthma. this scares me.
But i think i did see slight aggravation i got very tired and also runny nose. now i feel the same maybe slightly more energy but nothing drastic.
thank you David
Also my confidence is not good atall and I'm always putting myself down

Hi David I am not sure I feel any better, I haven't touched any eggs since just before you suggested remedy, not that I imagine this was a major point, my youngest was sick last night and the fear went through me worrying he was getting Ill, my lack in confidence has become more noticeable to me, it's always there but I have noticed it more lately, I am getting bloods tested Thursday so by friday or Monday I will see what's going on with my b12 and thyroid, I hope you can shed a bit more light in whether you think the remedy needs longer or redosing?
Thank you
Pixie

Ok first thing we need to do is repeat the remedy. Hit the bottle 4 times this time and take one more dose. If we do not see anything significant I will reanalyze the case for you.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Thankyou I will redose tomorrow

Hi David
I redosed on the 1st of may and again I had the spurt of energy tue day after etc so this is what's called the placebo affect but I am confused because both times I was expecting to feel aggravation not better yet I did, I thought placebo was just all in ones head?
Also since just before going to bed about 6 hours ago I am feeling very nauseas and also quite windy, I'm beginning to think maybe my son that was sick at the weekend did have a bug, I thought it was something he ate, I feel like I am coming down with stomach bug and I also have a nervous feeling and i really don't know why, it doesn't feel nice!
But maybe its aggravation? I was wondering if you had any idea ?
Thank you

It is not necessarily placebo. I can tell you exactly what it is.

When you take a homoeopathic medicine (one that is homoeopathic to your symptoms that is), it replaces your disease with a similar but artificially created one. While it is doing this, there is often a break in the symptoms, which may last a few hours or even a day or two (although that is unusual). Once this artificial version of your disease has settled in, you will see similar symptoms again (and most likely stronger).

Aggravation usually does start within the first 3 days after the dose. Aggravation however is your normal symptoms worse, or an old symptom suddenly returned, not something new.

If there are new symptoms showing, it is possible you have a genuine acute which probably won't respond to your chronic remedy.

The nervous feeling is one I've had a million times and not for a couple of years the sickness is new i think I'm coming down with something, will keep you posted :-)

I think it maybe the remedy, I don't feel sick anymore and dont mean to be too graphic but only way to describe the feeling is my bowels feel like they need to explode and I would feel better, slight tummy pain too but can't seem to open bowels!
 
pixie wood last decade
Ah I used to suffer irritable bowel so could be an old symptom
 
pixie wood last decade
Ok that is an interesting expression lol. If that reoccurs that might help me to find a better remedy. However an old symptom returning is very often an excellent sign on any remedy.

Just to update that I was not sick or no loose bowels but I was feeling quite shivery and sick the whole day yesterday and I do believe it was a bug as my husband was actually having loose bowels and was poorly, I'm fine today apart from big aggravation I am so so so tired and lethargic I am snapping at the kids and have no patience what's so ever, I was driving the car and felt like u would sleep at the wheel, this for sure aggravation I can get like this at times but this has happened to sudden so I know it's aggravation, will report any other changes!

Dear Brisbanehomeopath,
I have read several of your posts including one where you've stated some of the answers on this forum may not be the most accurate.. I have consulted with one person for several months and have taken several different remedies. I wonder if I need another opinion at this point and if you would help, my thread is under jdc02 depression, sadness, loss of time if you would read and consult on your thoughts if they differ. Thank you for your help in advance!

Hi there David.... what an interesting week lol i have been mother from hell and extremely moody and snappy with no patience. very tired yet not sleeping.... this i'm sure is aggravation as these are common symptoms,... today i feel i may have taken a turn for the better... i feel a bit different today. not flopping to sleep and i actually left the house.

I had my bloods taken last week 2 days after the remedy. not a good time i know but the Dr was pestering me. my results we're all normal so me feeling so tired is nothing to do with my thyroid or iron so i am assuming this is pointing more to aggravation but surely my blood results may of been abnormal lol.
let me know your views

Hi David, you say remedy can bring old symptoms to the surface what about cravings??? i have been craving cigarettes which i have not smoked in 8 years and also caffiene in the form of fizzy coke and coffee... i never drink coffee it usually makes my stomach feel iffy but have been drinking it again after 2 years or so of drinking tea.
Very strange and wondered if it was the remedy. i do also ened up staying awake half the night even though i cannot open my eyes i'm so tired. this i used to do too. and i have been getting a few palpatations so wondering if the sleepless nights and the palpatations could be that my thyroid has picked up.
i feel better too and have been out with the kids all day which i would usually feel to lazy to do.

Hi David i wondered your views on the above question? i do not know what i should be feeling, i feel better but not sure if it's better because of the aggravation.i do feel slight changes,

I still get anxious and worry about my youngest getting ill, for example the eldest we are treating now has been ill and i just dread the youngest getting this as his croup is always much worse and he is much more prone to asthma and he is slightly sniffly now. but i think i get more worried than most parents. to the point he will only have to sneeze once or cough and i panic and worry,
The bit where you said mania to read medical books. i was like this as a child and i would not dare look up causes of illness or symptoms of illness as i worry what i will find but i do get obsessed with finding natural cures for things.
I do not crave the eggs anymore but like i mentioned above i have had the sudden liking of coffee and cigarette craving after a long time of not liking either, but they have become less,
Please let me know your views, thank you

A bit more to report, my youngest stayed at his grans on Saturday and my anxiety was awful I even had small panic attacks, this was fearing he would get croup and me not knowing, if he was not slightly bunged up I would not of worried like this, the illness fear is awful I just fear illness alot, I also have a slight cough or throaty cold starting, I have had one every month since my nan passed in January and before this I never got Ill and also Another headache on Saturday which was very bad, I feel very slight changes like I have been a little more social and little more patience at times but can quickly change, not sure if I still need longer on the remedy what do you think, the aggravations are pretty strong and they go on for over a week before it slowly goes?

I now have another cold. A couple of things I missed from original post and one is I have this very bad habit if clicking joints lots and I get slightly restless legs and get the urge to move my legs suddenly in bed, this maybe a new one I am unsure,I am always twiddling my feet or wiggling my toes, I am not as low and tearful just snappy and no patience again, please let me know your views
Pixie
Also I get bored quickly, for example I had this great plan to go back to work and work in a nursery or school I paid for the course and it is half done and I have now changed my mind, I still at 33 do not think I will settle in a job no matter what it is I get bored and loose interest, I am going to get back to work once youngest starts nursery but all the ideas I get I soon forget about and they do not interest me!

Hi david i hope your recovering well? I have asked Aswad to take over my case and he kindly has, do i let him be the judge of whether the remedy has worked or can you advise and he take over. The last 2 - 3 wks i cut down on wheat and my energy levels have gone up i rarely drink tea now either but there is a chance it could be coincidence and it was the remedy, how do i tell? I have felt much more energetic and not lazy, i have socialised more but this could be the sunny weather, but my mood swings and snappiness are awful some days. I can't tolerate my kids very well and i am not a calm relaxed person i am very uptight and snappy with no patience. Feels like its my hormones. I started back on wheat 3 days ago and i have irritable bowel now.so far energy still ok so over all yes i feel better in some ways but alot more snappier and moody and still not drinking much and quite rejective towards people i have read that coming off wheat can cause mood swings, i have lost another close family friend and also been trying to come off the antidepressants which wouldn't of helped. I will pass this info onto Aswad also but if your able to give your view it may help .many thanks pixie
