The ABC Homeopathy Forum
Sajjad and All, Re: Multi remedies vs. Single
Hello,What is your opinion. There are many remedies being sold with different remedies mixed in one. I have read according to Hahnemann and classical Homeopathists that it is unwise to take more than one remedy at a time. They say it diminishes the effect. It does make sense, but homeopathy seems to be changing. New practitioners believe that you can mix certain remedies together and at different potencies. I have done both. I have had good results with both. However, I did not take precise notes on my experience enough to make a valuable conclusion. I was just desperate and took as many remedies as I needed to, to get rid of my many many symptoms at that time. I know that if you find the ONE RIGHT remedy, it will dissolve all your symptoms, BUT in place of that ... what else can you do than keep trying different ones?
Just wondering what you all thought?
Thank You,
Gracey

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Im not a homeopath but ive taken many remedies and learnt the hard way...CLASSICAL ALL THE WAY!!!!!! complex as its called it no way to go..u suppress symptoms confuse ure case and make it much more difficult for your condition to be truely healed.. And anyone who says that if a remedy isnt ure remedy it wont work is wrong. ive screw myself up on several occasions with using incorrect remedies etc.
Yes different remedies may have to be tried to get the "right one" but the use of homeopathy must be holistic and not allopathic. This new tendacy to mix and match is taking the philosophy of mainstream medicine and using homeopathic remedies in the same way u would use chemical drugs. Not a good idea.
thats my opinion for what its worth.

WOW Cornelius! You make a good case!! Thank You so much for that! I am in the process of doing one remedy and now, I wanted to work on other problems, but I just made a list and am doing ONE at a time. Slow, but more effective as you say. Hopefully the one I am doing now will solve everything before I know it.
Thank You again! gracey

According to homeopathic philosophy what you said is correct.I am deadly against the use of multiple remedies,but in emergency one or more remedies can be used.The basic target is to save the patient.Alternating the remedies is permissible in homeopathy and most of the masters did that but still one must try to find out the single remedy.I am not defending use of more than one remedy at a time.That is what i want to say. I will not discuss any more on this subject.Thanku very much for pointing out.

Further to above the organon written by the founder.It was personal observation of Hahnemannian,till his death he kept on adding his observations.After his death his followers expressed thir observations without changing the basic ideas or rules.They prescribed the medicines on pathology,totallity of symptoms,single characteristic symptom and causation.They tried their best to find the remedy in the minimum possible time,and they suggested various methods and got success,you can read them in various books written by them.You know allopathy is used world over much more than homeopathy,but believe you me they may cure in acute diseases which are self limiting and complete failure in curing chronic diseases,they only manage the disease.Chronic diseases can only be cured by homeopathy,but it takes time and careful prescription,and is very very difficult.What i believe is.
1.The patient must be cured in minimal possible time.
2.Must be given minimum possible doses.
3.Must be given minimum possible medicines at time preferably one medicine at a time especially when it is not an emergeency and no sudden danger to the life of the patient.I think it is sufficent explanation.

in terminal illness where only palliation is possible mixed or alternated remedies can be a blessing for the patient.
in acutes, where the vital energy changes quickly, so the remedy/remedies needed can change quickly. in some instances mixing can here act just as well as alternating. as long as the remedies are acting with the vital force no suppression is possible.

my thoughts exactly!
gracy u will find that a well chosen remedy will cure your case the question is weather u have the correct remedy.. in homeopathy there is no need to say well i have the so i'l take that and i have this so then i'll take that. The whole case must be considered and then an appropriate remedy chosen. If the correct remedy is given symptoms will begin to clear. dont take something just cos u think u have a symptom that is indicated in the materia medica.
Most important are the mental emotional symptoms...how do u see/treat others? what angers you? how do you feel about yourself? what is driving u? what are ure dellusions..What is the fasle perception of reality that is allowing your disease to exist.
all the best
hope ure remedies going well

ERIKA-Hi, Thank YOu. Ok, As long as they are all acting on the LifeForce its ok to MIX? I don't know how to make that distinction. If you can explain more I would appreciate it. CORNELIUS- Wow you said it--what is the false perception allowing the disease to exist? That is so key! Wow, I guess, hmm... I have to think about that. Thank You so much for all your help. I am really trying to get well so I can go back to school and work. Thanks again, gracey

The word vital force is used since hahnemann,it is true but with the passage of time the theroy has changed and will keep on changing.kent a great homeopath once said i dont know how remediese works god knows better.
There are different cells in the body unctioning dfferentally.When these cells are sick their fuction is altered and the body is labelled as diseased.homeopathic medicines acts as a stimulant to these andstimulate them to reaction.so the diseased cells again become healthy and corrects the body function,consequently the body is free from disease.that is the theory behind similar remedy.That is what i understand.

Only ok to mix in emergancy situations...only pick one remedy that fits your symptoms..play special attention to mind perceptions.. def do not mix the remedies if u want to get better.. too many remedies will complicate ure case and make cure harder..i am the living proof of this..go see a homeopath but make sure they're classical

Hello, My condition is large sweelings of hives that are raised. They are very large, one can cover my whole abdomen. I get many all over. They become hot and red and debilitate me. I become tired and cannot move my bowels when they break out.
I am on Syphlitic homeopathic now. It is helping alot. At some point I want to do a ferrum homeopathic b/c I am almost anemic and the blood gets hot because it is not circulating properly.
There are other things I am waiting to take, like Hydrocotyle. I have taken Sulphur and Nat Mur in the past. I am trying to do this slowly, but I am impatient. I want to be well. I am definitely improving. Chemical sensitivites are the only thing that set off the Hive Outbreak now. It used to be anythingand everything. So it is getting better. Any ideas will be welcomed. Thank You, Gracey

ure gonna think im mad for saying this but u wanna know the best thing to put on these hives....URINE..yup ure own urine will help ALOT. Experiment but i reckon the best metod is collect ure morning urine and use it through out the day by puttign it on the hives and around them..its best when left to stand for 7-8 hrs but fresh will also help.. experiment.. i know there maybe soem hesitation but if u wanna get better quick then thats the quickest way.. try it.. wot u got to lose..

Hi Connor, YES I have used my own urine. I have used it topicaly and internally. You are right! It does help! The thing is my diet was not as good then, so I had to stop. I had fierce cravings all the time, but as I got better, those cravings went away. So maybe I can start again. My diet is very clean now.
OH, You said leave it standing 7-8 hrs? You mean for Topcal Treatment only to do that? I think internal must be fresh?
I will try it. Thank You for your post. I do not know if it will CURE me totally. Before it helped a lot, but once I stopped it all came back. It is a kind of homeopathic tho, they say, urine.
All the Best to You, Connor!! ~gracey

internally is best fresh...left standing it can however be used for parasitic infections and the like.. keep the urine therapy up...it has to be maintained for it to be effective have only been using internally for 3 weeks.. some difference in my symptoms but a long way to go i too hope it will be effective in the long run. whatever the urine therapy throws up symtoms wise i think its best just to grit ure teeth and continue with the therapy..
another thing u can try is crab apple bach flower remedy internally every two hrs add 4 drops to water and sip through out the day every day..from reading ure profile i would expect this to have some very good results over a long peroid..
also perhaps read about pure neem oil i dont know weather it is indicated in your case but i have heard amazing things about its ability to heal the skin

Wow, You are Hot, Hot, Hot! Yes, I do have a bottle of Crab Apple Flower essence. I will try it the way you suggest. I was only taking it moring and night. I love flower essences. They all have a good effect. I did not notice if this one did or not. Though, maybe it is because it is mixed with two other essences, Walnut and Tansy. I look for a plain one Crab Apple One.
Also Neem Oil has been suggested to me again and again, even by a Shaman. I don't see that it helps any. But I will give it another try.
Thank you for all the suggestions. they are so helpful right now in this moment when I am losing my patience with it.
Take Care!!

Yes, I did see a classical homeopathist and he prescribed Carcinosin 1 x. He was kind of unprofessional, so I got a second opinion from my Naturopathic Professor and he said not to take it. I dunno. It was a long long time ago, so I didnt know who was right so I just didnt take it.
My dentist is a Homeopathist using classical approach, no mixing. She gave me Syphiliitic homeopathic. Which helps unbelievablly. But I still have smaller hives, acne, and a blood clot on my eye that may or may not be associated with this.
Anger from childhood. Yes. And past lives too, I am sure. Hmmm... how to resolve it, I just don't know. Impatient. Yes. I am also irritable, type A, high acheiver, go-getter, acyive....alot of firey characteristics. I study astrology, and that is confirmed in my chart. All my planets in fire signs.
My hives do not break or ooze. My acne does, maybe I can make something from that!? My hives get very hot, itch and burn. They do NOT become blue, but the skin around them become bluish. Like the rest of my skin is not getting oxygen.
They usually are worse when I am around chemicals or constipated. I'll make a urine homeopathic tomorrow!
Thank You for helping me Connor!

Hi Connor, I have an older Indian Materia Medica, maybe Tarentula is in it. I will try it 30c 3 doses 10 minutes apart. Just one time, or once a week?
Yes, I do like to dance. I Love love love music. Little obsessed with music. I love singing too. Food is kind of a sore subject for me. Just seems like I never feel good about what I eat. Like if its not a vegetable, it was a wrong choice. My grandmother was a ballet dancer and she was always calling me fat since I was 7 years old. It was too young for me to start worrying about that stuff.
Thanks, I'll look for the Tarentula now...

WONDERFUL.....Although i can not see u face to face from ure answers to my questions i believe u are this remedy!!!
The materia medica will say little about it .... homeopaths know little of the wonders of this remedy...Tarentula hispanica has recieved more attention.. it is similar to this remedy so u can read a little about the hispanica but i has to be the cubensis!!!!!!!!
i do hope it helps u as i have said though i cannot see u face to face so i do not know for sure but there is no harm in trying three dose to see the reaction.
Three doses ten mins apart and thats it, def not once a week only three doses ten mins apart and then stop. U may read this remedy and think i has nothing in common with ure case but as i have said little is know of this remedy and it does covers ALL the symptoms given to me so far. The materia medica can be alittle confusing as it is only ment for diserning between remedies whereas the rubrics are used to identify the case.
Please try this remedy it may well give u the results u desire.
TARENTULA CUBENSIS 30C
remember only three doses and take no other homeopathic meds at all!!! holly, crab apple and rescue remedy are the only other things u should take, all other remedies should be stopped this is important.

Hi Connor,
I just looked up Tarentula in my Materia Medica. Its living spiders. Yes, it does describe me, emotionally, physically, weird quirks,etc...very closely. Amazing. Skin crawls like spiders. Wow. It says here the cause is a Fall, Bad News, Scolding, or unrequited love. It was my parent's messy divorce I think. That happened months before I became ill.
OK, I will try it!
Thank you so much!
