Prostatomegaly

Hi,

My 66 years old father has been suffering from prostatomegaly for several years. He is going to have an operation this autumn, the doctors will be taking the extra growth away. The biggest problem is that he has to run to the toilet all night long.

He would like to have a homeopathic treatment but where he lives, there are no homeopaths.

Is it possible give him treatment this way?

Regarding prostate problem,you can give these medicines to your father with confidence which are recommended in this forum under the title"enlarge prostate and urinary retention"I hope these medicines will help and if used continuously will cure permanently.But keep in touch in the forum for assistance.

Hi Sajjad,

Thanks for answering.

I checked the tool. I have never understood how it works: It gave four different remedies: pulsatilla, iodium, aloe and digitalis. But my own books always recommend Lycopodium.
I have to ask him more questions. But which are the most important questions?

If I'll find the right one for him.
- which potency?
- how often?
- when it should start working?
- how soon should he have results?

1.if the remedy is short acting it can be repeated thrice daily.
2.if the remedy is in mother tincture,it is given in drop doses say 5-10.
3.Deep acting remedies do not require frequent repetition.
4.In acute cases the response is rapid,in chronic takes about 5-10 days,but there is continuous ameloration may be slow .

Hello

I have been talking again with my father about the details.

He has enlarged prostatis. In the hospital they have noticed that the pressure between bladder and prostate is really strong. But he doesn't see it himself.
He has norrowed urinary passage and he has dribbling sensation. He goes to the toilet 3 times a night. He has no pains.

The prostata is so big, that it is going to be operated after couple of months. That's why he is looking help from homeopathy - even if he doesn't believe in it like I do.

Which is the right remedy: Causticum, Clematis, Sabal Serrulata or Thuja? What about Arnica that Joe de Liviera recommends?
What kind of potency? Other kind of advice?

I would appriciate your help very much.
If I give him Causticum, Sabal and Arnica at the same time - does it make bad effects?

I have just seen your post which you made a few days ago and see that your dad has BPH or an enlarged prostate.

I too suffered from this same problem from 1996 to 2002 when I had surgery as I was in urine retention and had to be catheterized to survive.

You mentioned that your dad has to visit the toilet 3 times every night and I believe that his prostate is enlarged to the level that he will have to have surgery for it soon.

At this stage I would suggest that he has a full test done by an Urologist and he will start with a PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) test on his blood to see the count which should be between 0-4. If it is over this level he will have to get biopsies (at least 6) done to verify if he has cancer.

If his tests are OK he can use Arnica 30c in the water dose which is made up as follows:

Get a 500ml bottle of spring water
Pour out 100ml or about an inch of water to ensure some air space on top.
Put in 3 globules Arnica 30c or 1 drop if you have the liquid remedy.
Hit the bottle hard on your palm or a cushion and watch for the water to fizzle like when you open a bottls of soda.
Sip a teaspoonful 3 times daily after succussion each time and the last dose is best taken just before sleep.

He should notice some improvement in his incontinence and his time between visits to the toilet should lengthen considerably. Arnica relaxes the bladder sphincter and he will be able to evacuate the bladder better.

It just depends on the result of his tests that will dictate when surgery should be considered and the Uro will help him to decide .

If he is advised to have surgery, I would opt for the open method also called Retropubic Prostatectomy. This method in the hands of a competent surgeon is the safest and one that will give the best results.

The TURP surgery (Trans Urethral Resection of the Prostate) is a hit or miss type of surgery and this is because the surgeon uses a cutting device inserted through the penis which cuts out the Urethra in the Prostate gland to create a passage for the urine to flow. The danger in this method which is far less invasive than the classical open method is that the Uro is virtually shooting blind as he does not really see how deep he is in the prostate. If he goes too deep he can cut into the sphincter muscles in the neck of the bladder which can render the patient incontinent for life. If he goes too shallow, the patient will have to have repeat surgery to open up the passage.

In the short term your dad can use the Arnica 30c 3 times daily as advised and he can then report his response in a few days.

Hello,

Thanks for the reply. I'm sorry I didn't spell your name correctly in my previous message.

My dad has been checked throughly in the hospital and it is verified that he has no cancer. The date to the operation is already set for February.

Me and my dad live in different countries, so I will mail him Arnica 30 c.

What is the point in dissolving it to a water? For me it would be easiest to buy him globules and advise him to take three gobules three times daily.
Because I am not there checking if he hits the bottle properly.
Can I do that and just send globules?

You write that Arnica relaxes the bladder sphincter. But I wonder is there anything you can totally cure the enlargement and help the prostata get smaller again with homeopathy?

There is unfortunately no known remedy or drug that can reduce the Prostate when it is enlarged. This is an ongoing process as one ages and it is estimated that at 50 years of age 50% of the males have some degree of prostate enlargement which increases in percentage with the increase in age.

All we can do is to keep the waterworks flowing but it depends on the degree of enlargement which in some cases has to be treated surgically as I discovered myself after using Arnica 30c for 6 years.

Yes you may send him the globules since you cannot supervise his daily dosage but the water dose is far more effective and is also more cost effective as you only use 3 globules in a 500ml bottle of water and 1 teaspoonful is the dose.

Please convey my advice to your dad with regard to the respective types of surgery.

Hi Joe De Livera,

Thank you for recommending Arnica 30c for my dad.

I bought and send him two remedies. The other was Arnica as you recommended it. The other was a mixture of Sebal Serrulata and other remedies, that had been made for these kind of problems.

My father have been trying both of them. This week he asked me to get him more Arnica. He said it has been good for other kind of symptoms, too. (I don't what).

Anyway, just to let you know that Arnica helped him, too!

Thank you for confirming that your dad has discovered that the Arnica is more effective than the Sabal Serrulata which is Saw Palmetto and used for Prostate enlargement.

The Arnica which I discovered accidentally was the best of the remedies to help the Prostate seems to work by relaxing the gland thereby relieving the constriction of the Urethra.

Arnica also helps by promoting deep restful sleep and is best used in the liquid dose mentioned above.

Suggest you too use it in the 6c potency and you will be amazed at how your body reacts to it as you will feel much fresher and more energetic.

Hi again,

You say you have taken Arnica many years. I suppose I can recommend the same for my dad..?

I must try Arnica, too.:-)

Use the Arnica yourself first and observe how it seems to help you to turn a new page in your daily life. Many people who were reluctant at first to use it were simply amazed at its effect on th eir lives.

I have proved that I owe Arnica my sense of wellness at my age 76 and I can only record my own experience using it as I have done for the last 10 years on a daily basis.

You are invited to spread the Arnica news to your friends and all they have to do is to get a 1/2 lt of spring water and drop just 3 pellets of Arnica 6c into it and after shaking the bottle, they should sip just a teaspoonful nightly. The cost is negligible and the bottle should last for about 3-4 months and is preferably refrigerated.

Your dad is advised to use it twice daily.

Report response after a few days on Arnica.

Hi Joe De Livera,

My dad is finally having the operation (I don't know which kind of) in ten days.

What kind of advise I give him concerning Arnica? Does he keep taking the same all the time? More after the operation or goes down to 6 c?

By the way, he said he feels better elsewhere, too. I just figured out, that he has had difficult hip pain for years. Maybe it has helped that, too.

I have not bought Arnica 6 c for myself. But I will do that.

I used the following regimen pre and post surgery.

I presume your dad is taking Arnica 6c twice daily today. You should change the potency a few days before surgery to the 30c and he can take it 3 times daily pre surgery.

He should take a teaspoonful every 2 hours after surgery and avoid using the Morphine which I discovered was connected to the IV line. The nursing staff and the surgeon were all amazed that I was able to allay all pain with the Arnica only and were amazed when after my open surgery I went to the toilet on the third day. It was only then that they believed in the Arnica miracle which they had never witnessed before.

I was discharged on the fifth day.

Please keep me posted on his progress.
