Unresolved fever?
I submitted my symptoms about a month ago. I took Lachesis 200C as suggested 3 times without results. I then took lycopodium 200C as suggested 3 times without results. It was then suggested that I take carbo vegetabiles 200C, and if no results take nat mur 200C. I have not tried carbo vegetabiles (it doesn't seem like me) or nat mur (I have taken nat mur in lower doses in the past without results.) I have been to numerous professional homeopaths in the past (not for at least ten years now as I gave up) and have experimented on myself with many remedies - to no avail.Might someone out there in the homeopathic world have any suggestions other than the above? Thank you for looking.

.memory weak since forever - I cannot remember where places are to get to them; I can read a book and love it or go to a movie and really like it, but the next day I could not tell you what it was about. Facts just seem to evaporate.
.mind is full of ideas - writing letters to editors (which I do), emailing suggestions to city councils
.cannot remember events or people of childhood, grade school, junior high, high school, nursing school - only vaguely.
.extremely bad at understanding math concepts (cannot balance a simple checkbook); never could understand chemistry, physics. Even though I watch lots of international news, I could not tell you where on a map most countries are. People seem to think I am smart, but I know I am not.
.Profound aversion to mice if seen in home. Almost hysterical reaction for days later.
.Silent imaginary conversations that can go on for hours - not with dead people, but with one person at a time that I actually know. For instance, if it is with my insurance agent, the conversation will be about insurance.
.Have not taken a vacation or travelled in years. it seems like just too much effort. It seems too overwhelming. Would not like sharing a hotel room, for instance. Would not like walking on tours. Would not like a lot of people around.

.cheese constipates
.really really really like bread, rolls, cake, COOKIES! Will go out in the middle of the night to buy cookies.
.eating, eating, eating - I resolve to not eat high calorie foods, but once I think of eating some, I have to have it.
.extreme thirst when doing physical activity - I could drink gallons of cold water
.love, love, love Pepsi
LIMBS:
.can't keep legs and arms still when sitting or lying down - must keep moving them (circling feet, doing arm circles)
.detest any kind of exercise - hate standing / hate walking

FEVER
.chills only in upper arms more toward evening
.at times icy coldness over all of body
.Happens every fall - begins September, October, or November and lasts from four to six weeks. I think of it as 'my diphtheria' or 'my malaria.' Begins in sinuses. Thick mucous accumulation (color unknown because it does not drain out). Eventually goes to back of throat and down into larynx. Extremely thick mucous (again unseen,) and I think, 'I would give my kingdom for a tracheotomy.' Feel like I am choking from thick mucus that I cannot get rid of. It is accompanied over the weeks by increasing weakness to the point that I am too tired to do anything or go anywhere. Must lie down all day long because of fatigue. Absolute lack of appetite. End up only being able to drink water or eat watermelon.
.constant burning around mouth, in fingertips, under fingernails, in toes. Do not cover or uncover limbs with burning.
.I consider my chills and burning to be unresolved fever.
.Decades ago I had undiagnosed, untreated gonorrhea (assumed) with green vaginal drainage. (I have tried medorrhinum without results.) This probably has nothing to do with my present day symptoms.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
All these symptoms are close to THUJA and MEDORRHINUM so I guess you are suffering secondary psychotic symptoms( negative schizophrenia)due to the untreated gonorrhea.
Your remedy is THUJA and/or MEDORRHINUM.
If they don't produce results initially, then take SYPHILINUM 1M one or two doses before starting with Thuja.

What dose of thuja and medorrhinum, please? You said if they don't produce results initially, then take syphilinum .... 'before starting with Thuja.' So, does that mean I would repeat Thuja after the Syphilinum? or thuja, medorrhinum, syphilinum, thuja?

Let us go step by step.
Take one dose of THUJA 1M on a single day morning in empty stomach.
Let me know after a week if you felt any changes in your mental and physical states.
One dose would be 3 drops of remedy in some 10 ml of water sipped up in empty stomach and clean mouth. Don't take any food or water one hour before or after.
Based on your feedback, we will come to know the future course of action.

It has been two weeks since I took Thuja 1M. I have seen no changes.

Try Medorrhinum 1M the same way.
Let me know any changes in your thoughts and sensations in the next 7 days.
We will go for symptomatic remedy selection after this if required.

The only source of Medorrhinum 1M I can find is on amazon.com, and it is made by a company called Unda. I have never heard of this brand. Is it reliable?
If this worked, it would be wonderful. The constant burning, burning, burning in my toes and fingers and under my fingernails and around my mouth have gone on for 30 years. It is always worse in the evening and early night by getting more intensely painful. I keep the covers on in bed, however, because if I take them off, the burning becomes sharper, biting, stinging. Also, in the evening when I lie down, and only then, about 20 minutes later my head starts to itch as does my forehead and my ears. I keep thinking chills in my upper arms only in the early evening has to be significant. Lying down makes things worse and better. I take one, two, three, four naps a day when things overwhelm me - physical fatigue, emotional decision-making (no matter how minor), and mental overload.

I went through your case again. Your remedy is MERC SOL.
Please get Merc Sol in 200C and 1M potencies when you order for remedies.
Please take 3 doses of MERC SOL 200C to start with. Take the doses on one morning - evening - next morning, all in empty stomach and clean mouth.
No food or water one hour before or after.

For the time being, don't go for any unknown brand. Let it take time to get the remedy from a known manufacturer.

Hi Nellie,
You can call Hahnemann labs in northern California
and ask them if you can order their smallest
size of 1M Med liquid. Tell them you have the
prescription from a India homeopath and see if
they will process your order.
Don't ask for pills bc then they will want to know
pill sizes and amounts and so on-it gets
complicated.
Or you can go onto Helios Homeopathic Pharm uk
and order pills or liquid, but that takes 2 weeks if
you are in USA.
