*Bad Smelly Gastric odors coming out of my stomach due to stubborn chronic ulcers from the throat throughout the digestive tract.

*Chronic bad breath due to throat and stomach ulcers, infected mucous, smelly gas leaking from the ulcers and produced by the bacteria, and also due to toxins and infected teeth and some very badly smelling deposits like tonsil stones (tonsils were removed when I was around 12years old.)

*Stinking body odor because of toxins, bacteria and infected mucus being released though my bodily pores.

I am unmarried.

11. What are your fears and do you dream of any situation repeatedly?

Fears - nothing particular.

Dreams - I frequently dream of travelling by train to some unknown destination and forget to unload my baggage or atleast part of my baggage when exiting the train and then try desperate means to get back my baggage by contacting the railway officials. Sometimes I get part of my baggage back with the rest stolen by somebody else or sometimes I never recover them back and grieve over the lost items.

12. What do you crave for in food items and what are your aversions?

Totally Irregular eating habits. Hunger fluctuates between less to normal.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Continued.......

15. Is there any kind of food which your body can¡¯t stand?

Nothing as such.

16. Is your sweat normal or less or more? Where does it sweat more: Head, Trunk or Limbs?

My whole body sweats profusely if the fan is not running or if there is an increase in heat or humidity.

Body sweat smells sour, toxic and contaminated.

Profuse sweating after eating, especially hot meals, inside a room.

Sweat smells sour and acidic under armpits.

17. How is your bowel movement and stool type?

Chronically constipated.

Incomplete Evacuation - I pass only one piece of feces after I wake up in the morning. And after some 5-6 hours I feel the need to evacuate but pass only 1 piece of feces and before sleeping again I feel the need to evacuate but pass only 1 piece of feces.

Light coloured fermented stools with sour smells.

Soft and slimy stools with mucus coating.

Smells also like a piece of liver.

Stools have been narrow and hard to come by for the past 7 years after I started developing digestive problems. But recently, a couple of months ago I satrted taking garlic. The thickness, hardness and length of stool increased, but stool is pale, and I am able to pass only 1 piece at each sitting.

18. How well do you sleep? Do you have a particular posture of sleeping?

Irregular sleeping patterns.

Sometimes I sleep at 11pm, othertimes at 12pm, 1am, 2am.

I used to suffer from chronic sleeplessness some 13 years ago, since I got seperated from my girlfriend and went into a period of deep depression for the next 5 years. But after I visited some holy places and got involved in religion and godly activities I started getting normal sleep. This carried on for some years. But for the past 3 years, I sleep at different timings as mentioned above, not because I am depressed, as was the case 14years ago, but because
I would be browsing the internet, searching for remedies for my health conditions or would be in prayer and communion with God. Its not that I dont get sleep. Many a time, I would feel very sleepy, but resist the sleep to be awake for the reasons I mentioned above.

I sleep on my on my back and on my right side during the night and on my stomach towards the morning. But never sleep on my left side.

19. Do you think you are able to satisfy your sexual desires in general?

I satisfy my sexual desires through pornography and mastarbation. I have been mastarbating once, almost everyday, for the past 20 years and feel quite emaciated and weak with quick ejaculation and quite watery sperm.
Sexual desire is gone after mastarbation and stays that way for a day or two. Feel guilty and ashamed after commiting the acts. Would seriously like to stop watching porn and mastarbating. Havent had sex with a woman yet.

20. How do you think you are different from others, if at all?

On the positivr side, I always think that I am unique and different from most people in my personality in the facial looks, in the ways I think, walk, talk and do things.

On the negative side, I see myself suffering from various kinds of embarrasing sickness, especially connected to bad odors emanting from every part of my body, and see others spitting or brushing their nose when they pass me by, while they go on about their daily business living a normal life.

21. What medications have been taken earlier by you to treat the diseases and do you have any particular symptom surfacing after the medication?

I was diagnised with bronchitis when I was around 19 years old an just didnt bother to do anything about it. Then when I was around 26 years I had severe sinus problems, which my mother too had suffered from for many years after her marriage. I was then prescribed antibiotics which dried uo the mucus in my head and that issue was forgotten. Some 5 years ago I went to a reputed siddha doctor as I started developing symptoms of bad breath, white tongue, ulcerated sore throat, dry cough spells, smelly sweat, chronic digestion and belching, liver disease, smelly acidic urine and constipation. I was diagnosed with tuberculosis, immune system supression, chronic lung infections and congestion, chronic liver disease, numerous ulcers from the throat throughout the digestive tract and intestinal diseases and was given herbal medicines along with the standard antibiotics for T.B. On taking the antibiotics all the symptoms I had just disappeared into thin air. I was symptom free for 6 days. On the seventh day I adjusted the dose of one of the antibiotics and all the symptoms returned. I am sure that it was a case of antibiotic drug resistance. I later on took some urine, blood and feces culture tests and found that I had Klebsiella Pneumonia infection along with other numerous gram negative bacteria. I was prescribed antibiotics by a couple of doctors, but nothing worked. I started noticing chest pains (I suspect pleurisy) and very offensive 'dead rat' like smells coming out of my breath. I then came across some homeopathic remdies and tissue salts. I Tried the homeopathic remedies, but all my symptoms remained.I then bought tissue salts in 6x potency and tried them. I noticed that there was great improvment in many of my symptoms, but due to reasons I have forgotten, I stopped taking them and the symptoms gradually returned. i later on tried with tissue salts in the 30x potency, but didnt get the results I got in the 6x. I then just dropped homeopathy. Few months ago, I started taking castor oil everyday to clean my system. And everytime I took castor oil I seen a lot of yellow, green and blood mixed dreadfully smelly mucus coming out in my stools. The pains and smells are still there as I suspect that The lungs are continually being filled with fresh mucus which gets infected with klebsiella and other deadly bacteria. Till this day I have been suffering with all the symptoms mentioned above.

22. What major diseases are running in your family?

Lung diseases in my fathers side.
High blood pressure on my fathers and mothers side.

23. Describe, how do you look like? Describe your overall appearance

5 feet 8 inches - Fair body (except thighs and face, whole body tanned). Athletic, medium lean, quite muscular, broad shoulders and chest.

Black Hair with lots of grey hairs. Brown eyes with good sight. Fair Skined with occasional pimples. Dark eye circles. With beard & moustache. Long hair till shoulders.

I would like to start taking the tissue salts in LM potency as I have researched quite well about LMs. Can I try all the salts except calc flour in LM potency. Would they suit my case history in this potency? I cant afford 6x salts cause they are too expensive for me. I am very eager to try with LMs after I have read all the advantantages and disadvantages about them. Will they suit my case? Which salts would suit my case? And are there any salts I should not be taking in LM potency? Can I especially try Carbo Veg, Nat Sulph, Nat Phos, Silicea, Kali Mur, Kali Sulph, Calc Sulph in LM potency? as these worked great (have never tried carbo veg in my life) for me some years ago in 6x potency. Will Nat Sulph 6x which worked greatly for me some years ago work well in LM potency? What if some of or many of the symptoms mentioned for Nat Sulph do not suit my conditions? Is it okay to go ahead. Will I manifest negative symptoms which affect me badly? Kindly advice, as I have already added all the salts to my shopping cart in bahola labs online homeopathic store and would like to make the final order. Thanks a million, million in advance for all the generous help. God Bless You All.

Hold the salts for a few weeks.

Order for PULSATILLA 200C of a reputed brand.

Take 3 doses of PULSATILLA 200C, each dose 6 hours apart.

Wait and watch for a week and tell me if you felt any change in your symptoms.

One dose would be typically 3 drops of remedy in about 10 ml of water. Take the doses in empty stomach and clean mouth. Don't take any food or water or even rinse your mouth for about one hour after taking the dose.
 
rishimba 9 years ago
Thanks a million for the early reply sir. Is this pulsatilla nigricans or pulsatilla pratensis. What are the chances of its success sir? I checked for the symptoms of pulsatilla and found many symptoms that are not matching with my state. Will this cause problems? Just wanted you to know that Carbo veg seems to match much, if not all of my symptoms. Should I still go with pulsatilla? Are you confident I would be cured with it? Thanks and sorry for all the trouble. God Bless You.

Buy PULSATILLA PRATENSIS 200C.

You have a fair chance of getting cured. This is not the only remedy that will be required for your complete cure. I may need MERC SOL as well at some point of time. However, your generals are close to Pulsatilla so you have a good chance of responding to it.

I don't suggest a remedy if I am not confident about it. I can understand CARBO VEG is also close to some of your symptoms and it may be used later at some point in the treatment.

But, we have to start with Pulsatilla.

The symptoms that you see in the materia medica of remedies are their universal sets of symptoms during provings. You don't have to match all symptoms.

I feel your similimmum is in Pulsatilla which includes symptoms, generals, modalities and mentals to some extent. Thus, I can put all my money on this remedy for you!!

Oh thank you, thank you. If you feel confident, then I too feel confident. Ill get the medicine, try it, and then post a reply. Thanks a million, once again. God Bless You.
 
Alister777 9 years ago
I am unable to find pratensis sir. Some pharmacies say pulsatilla nigricans is the one which is commonly prescribed. What should I do?
 
Alister777 9 years ago
You can take Pulsatilla Nigricans...they are almost the same. No problems.
 
rishimba 9 years ago
Can I buy the merc sol together with Pulsatilla sir. Because the shop is about 12kms from my house. Will you surely be using merc sol on me in the future or is it a doubt? Can I also get the Carbo Veg at the same time or should I delay it? If you say yes then what potency should I get the merc sol and carbo veg?

Alister777 9 years ago
I can't say for sure if I would be using these remedies. It all depends how you respond to Pulsatilla.

In case you buy them, go for 200C potency first.
 
rishimba 9 years ago
Sir, there are a few more things that I lately recollected which was not added to my case history.

Many a times, (sometimes during whole nights) the mind continually wanders and thinks about so many things all the time. Its like a working non-stop computer.

I started smoking when I was 5 years old. Stopped smoking when I was around 26 years old. Totally, I had been smoking for 21 years. Thus I wrecked my lungs.

I was a chronic drinker of alcohol from the age of 18 to the age of 27. Total 9 years. Most of the times I used to drink the alcohol raw without even mixing water. That would account for the liver and intestinal problems.

I used consume pan parag everday from the age of 21 to 26. I used to swallow the pan parag without spiting it out. This would have had devastating effects on the liver and intestines.

I used to be (and am still) a wicked fellow, even from my young childhood days, when I was in the 3rd standard. I used to passionate for girls and make friends with them and have thoughts of loving them. This continued throughout my schooldays of education from the age of 6 till I finished my schooling when I was 15 years old in the 10th std. I yearned for the love and friendship of the opposite sex from the age of 6 and even till today. I got involved with a few homosexual relationships starting from the age of 8, when I was kind of enticed by a man to play with his private parts and to give him pleasure. Then later on had a homosexual relationship when I was 13 yrs with a classmate from the 8th std. Even when I was around 11 years old I would entice neighbors kids who were younger to me and equal in age to me to play dirty sexual games together. Even till today I have sexual thoughts and plans going on my mind and heart, fantasising and making love to girls or women I come across. There has been lots of sexual perversion in my life.

I grew up in a home where I always seen my mother and father quarelling and fighting with each other. My father used to drink heavily, womanize and then come home late in the nights and beat my mother. He used to also beat me with belt until I had long inflamed stretch marks on my body. This used to go on almost everyday from the age of 5 till I was around 20. I underwent lots of mental and physical suffering because of all this.

After adding the above to my case history, should I still go with pulsatilla Sir?

Alister777 9 years ago
Well, you should have told this to me earlier.

You need to buy STAPHYSAGRIA 200C and 1M along with PULSATILLA 200C and 1M.

I feel you should start with a few doses of STAPHYSAGRIA 200C first and see if your mentals are getting better. However, you will need PULSATILLA later.

So, for now, take three doses of STAPH 200C on a single day, each dose 6 hours apart.

Come back after a week to share if your mental state improved after this remedy. You may have to take, if it works, a number of times, in higher and higher potency, to finally overcome the perversion in you that was probably a result of anger, indignation, grief and sexual excesses.

I feel, STAPH would pave the way for PULSATILLA to work better.

rishimba 9 years ago
Ok Sir. Ill do as you say. I also just wanted you to read the below in your free time. This resembles my case in many ways, except for the varicose veins, and makes me feel like this would also cure me.

http://www.britishhomeopathic.org/bha-charity/how-we-can-hel...

The most embarrasing problems I am facing are due to the bad odors coming from from throat, mouth and nose:

1. From my throat - I suspect and can clearly get the smell of tonsil stones which cannot be seen and is somewhere deep down my throat, and in good numbers I believe, cause the tonsil stone odors are on the extreme side. A year ago a piece of this stinking tonsil stone fell out of my throat when I coughed.

2. From my mouth - The white thrush on my tongue and most probably throughout my digestive tract and the very bad gastric odors that leak through my mouth especially when I eat a meal (This surely is due to the chronic ulcers I am having from my throat throughout my digestive tract and intestines)

3. Through my nose - The very bad smelly odors come from the thick green infected mucus in the lungs.

4. Through my body - The smelly mucus, toxins and bacteria exit through the pores of my skin, especially the face and the upper half of the body.

Because of the odors I am unable to go out anywhere or speak to people. I have been living like this for the past 6 years. My living room is like a prison and I am like a caged animal restricted to a small area.
 
Alister777 9 years ago
Do you have a burning sensation in your body or in the stomach or throat or mouth. This burning heat in the body is a characteristic symptom of a carbo veg patient.

Also, your mental make up is not of a typical carbo veg patient.

I feel you should be patient. I will try my best to cure you. Give me some time.
 
rishimba 9 years ago
Yea, sir, I feel my whole body is of the heated type, prone to sweating. There is a kind of burning sensation in terms of heat all over my body.
 
Alister777 9 years ago
OK, in that case, I will keep CARBO VEG in my mind. Initially, I would like you to take STAPHYSAGRIA to address the probable underlying cause. We will see how you respond to it.
 
rishimba 9 years ago
Sorry for the long delay in replying Sir. I didnt have a internet connection for the past few days. I got the medicines you told me to get. Can I take Arnica 30C and nat sulph 6x along with staphysagaria 200? I already started taking arnica 30 and nat sulph 6x two days ago.
 
Alister777 9 years ago
If you have already started taking remedies I had never suggested, why are you asking me about them?

I am out of here.
 
rishimba 9 years ago
I am very sorry Sir. I started taking arnica since Joe Livera had stated that it was a very good health tonic and can be taken life long. Nat sulph I took thinking that it was a harmless tissue salt that would help detox my body. I am extremely sorry for going against your advice. Please tell me what should I do next. Can I stop taking the arnica and nat sulph and start taking staphysagaria? Please forgive me.
 
Alister777 9 years ago
Please stop these remedies now and till the time you want to take my treatment.

Next, please take a dose of STAPHYSAGRIA 1M and report your mental and physical changes after 15 days.

This is your first dose.
 
rishimba 9 years ago
But Sir, you hae previously asked me to take Staph 200C 3 doses in 1 day. So which should I take 200C or 1M. If 1M, can you tell me the procedure to take the dose? Thank you for all your generous help and patience Sir.
 
Alister777 9 years ago
OK, Start with 200C on a single day as suggested earlier. Observe yourself and come back here after 10 days.
 
rishimba 9 years ago
Ill do that Sir. Thanks a million.
 
Alister777 9 years ago
Nat-sulph is not harmless. Neither is Arnica and Nat-phos. All these medicines carry a risk, which increases substantially when you take them together.

It is important to follow only one person's treatment plan. It is also important if you wish to be cured permanently without any unwanted side effects, to follow genuine homoeopathic principles. This would include the Law of the Single Remedy, one of our most important. Rishimba practices this way.
