Hi-
that is a lot of medicine for what may be probably just
post nasal drip after a cold. When you give too many
doses of a medicine it can produce the symptoms it is
given for, if it really is not needed.
What is happening is his immune system is down a bit
after the cold, and there is a drip going down the back
of the throat sinus passage. This produces the dry cough.
Then the drip starts to get into the bronchial passages
with mucous.
What is the color of the mucous he coughs up?
Does he have watery eyes, or a running nose?
When does the cough go on? All day and night or?
What makes this better?
What makes it worse?
Does he have allergies to dust or pollen?
Is he tired or have any other symptoms going on?
What foods does he like and not like?
Describe his personality.

thank you for both answers,,,
he doesnt have any mucous , he gets better at night, but during the day when running or jumping he gets the dry cough again.
he likes milk, even though i dont give it too much because of allergies issues.
chicken, bananas, doesnt like fish.
he is very restless , anxious, , but like i said this is a consequence of the cold last week.
but the cough has been there for almost 8 days in a row.
thank you

no.
mainly is a dry cough, that gets worse with movement, he can cough at night but maybe one or two times no more than that.
but is bad during the day.

I would suggest trying Bryonia 30c. You can try it 3 times
to see if it works. If after a dose he gets worse- or better-
stop and wait- do not give another dose until things
return as they were before.( one of the main symptoms of
Bryonia is cough that gets worse with movement)
You can try this up to 3 times to see if there is a reaction-
if nothing happens, the remedy is wrong and another one
should be tried out.
Give a gap of 4 hours between doses if nothing happens.
Dissolve 3 pills in two tablespoons of water -use a tsp. for
a dose. After the first one, hit the bottle of water 6 times -
each time you give a dose.

dear simone ;
i have been giving the bryonia to my son, as you mentioned , i cant tell any good or bad response, because he already caught another cold.
i dont know what is going on with him but he is catching every cold is out there, is getting one every 15 or 20 days.
they always start the same way, a tickling in his throat in the middle , a lot of runny nose, and coughing.
then he gets fever, he is very demanding when he is sick, like all of us have to be pending on what is going on with him.
he is very restless,,, he has been on stramonium as a constitutional remedy with remarkable success.
but the colds is something that is there and there is no way to change it,,, he does takes vitamins, omega 3 , and minerals,,, but this is something that has been getting worse i would say the last year to today.
could you please help me ?
thanks

Hi-
if he is on stramonium, who is prescribing this- a homoeopath, a naturopath?
What is the dose and how often is he taking it?
Stramonium has a lot of cough symptoms, if you take too much or too high
a potency you can be proving that remedy- that is having symptoms that were
never there before.

a homeopath gave him stramonium because of his fears, and other symptoms .
maybe he has to wait to clear this up,,,, but , the catching colds, that is something that it was there before stramonium and like i said maybe already for a whole year.
maybe he prescribed too much, i dont know .

please let me know, thanks

I would need to know- the potency and the amount
of doses he is having of the stramonium.
possibly No- it won't go away if the dosing is too often- potency too high
and if remedy is really taking care of everything
or only taking care of one area-
You should be talking to the homeopath about this problem
as taking other remedies will interfere with his treatment.
For right now-I would be doing other things. Like give
him childrens Wellness Formula to boost him up, Get
Host defense REishi formula at whole foods and give him
a capuse ( it is just dried mushrooms) and see if he is
a lot better the next day- you feel nothing, you just feel better.
What about school and sports etc- is he doing too much?
Are there a lot of other kids constantly sick?
Could this be an allergy to food, or dust, or mold that keeps
him low?
Is he eating and resting well?
These are all things I would be looking at.

hi :
thank you for your answer,, this what happened .
when my son was a toddler , he suffered from many things, i took him to the homeopath, our main concern was a constant coughing and things in his chest, among other things.
she put him in lycopodium for a long time, starting very low and ending with 1 M.
i dont remember how many times he took it, because after like a year, i didnt take him anymore.
then as he grew up, he started with other symptoms,,, and he was on hyoscyamus niger 200
and 1 M for a little time, then stramonium , because of his intense fear of the dark.
then again due to money issues i didnt take him again, he did got a bit better but nothing else.
last year he started with bed wetting and more fears, it was horrible,,, he was again to stramonium and did a lot lot better 1M.
for a while,,,, it took several months to see him much better.
then this year he was on lycopodium 1M one time.
then he started to get sick , every 2 or 3 weeks,,he started again with intense fear of the dark, and very restless, so he was again on stramonium 1M ,,, but the dry cough was BEFORE he took the remedy, it was there, like 3 weeks in a row,,and after that he took the remedy .
so i dont think is coming from the stramonium because it was lingering after he had a cold.
and now he has another one, he is getting sick too often.
i suggested the homeopath the calcarea carbonica since he is too pale, thin, only wants cold drinks, ice cream, and milk which he doesnt take that much, and many other symptoms but he never was on calcarea.
yes , he does karate, runs in school, but he does takes vitamins, probiotics, etc etc, he does have sleep, but he is always calling screaming at night.
he sleeps in a very akward position he lifts ups his knees and cross them,, meanwhile he sleeps on his tummy ,,,,, i never saw anybody doing that only him.
yes there are kids sicks but nothing abnormal, in school , and in karate .
one thing that it does surprise me, is that you mentioned that if the coughing is produced by the remedy it wont go away,,, isnt homeopathy safe?
and i asked that to the homeopath a long time ago and she said that homeopathy will never leave any side effects,,, so now i am worry...
i hope this info helps, please let me know what you think, and thanks for your answers.

don't worry - I was concerned that perhaps you were giving a remedy
every few days or something like that.
Let me Go over this information and get back to you.

Stomach sleepers: Medorrhinum, Cina-worms especially children must sleep on stomach
Crossed legs: Rhododendron
Elbows and knees: Lycopodium, Medorrhinum, Phosphorus
Left Sided (can only sleep on the left side): Cocculus, Lac Caninum, Phosphorus, Mag Carb (preferred side), Sulfur (preferred side)
Right Sided (can only sleep on the right side): Borax, Lycopodium (preferred side), Phosphorus (preferred side)
On Back with legs up: Mercurius corr, Pulsatilla-
Try giving him Cina 30c
two doses a day- try this for 3 days. If you see improvement during this time-
stop the remedy till symptoms come back.
Dose is 3 pills dissolved in two tablespoons of water and give a teaspoon.
Read on this remedy on the top of the forum.

hi :
thank you for your time and help.
i forgot to mention that all the high potencies were given a month or more apart.
he was tested for worms years ago and had none since i suspected but it came out negative.
his main issue right now is the relapse in getting sick,, always related to his chest , and catching colds.
for a few days i wont be able to give anything since he spent the whole night vomiting, and a lot of bile,,, also today ear ache that he did not have for years.
like i said he is skinny, pale, have freckles , curly hair, and is kind that he cant develop muscles.
even though he eats, he is always in a hurry, hurry while eating, doestn want to do his homeworks.
sleeps on right side, and then on tummy elevating the legs and crossing them.
as a baby he used to get very sick, diaherrea, vomiting, ear aches all time, infection, candida rushes in his butt area .
then weezing like asthma and then i found the homeopath.
i hope all this help.
thanks again

When was the last time you saw the homeopath?
When was the last dose of something and what was it? Stramonium 1M?
Do you want to continue working with that homeopath?
One person should be supervising the entire treatment, including all these acute things.
btw, what country are you in?
