Restless 9month old given too many remedies _{Page 8 of 8}

Thank you. I did give her two more doses once every seven days. Everything seems rather the same with food and face/hair washing. She still seems disinterested in food mainly preferring meats to everything else. And she is still very very upset by getting her hair washed/face wet. Right now she has another cold only 25 days after getting better from the last cold. Lots of clear mucus running down her throat causing a small wet cough, although the cough is truly secondary to the runny nose. She doesn't expectorate anything and the cough doesn't last long. The nasal mucus also runs down the front towards her lips too but more so down the back of her nasal passage/ throat. Worse when lying down. Worse after eating. Worse after crying. She is running warm with hot hands although feet feel normal to cool. Mood is a little impatient and appetite is low but that's usual for her. Stools are wetter than normal and urine seems the same. She wants to nurse but has to come off a lot because she can't breathe through her nose. Her eyes look a little glassy and she sneezes a lot. I tried Kali Mur and Nat Mur yesterday but neither really helped. Do you think corallium would help? Thank you!

Thank you. I gave her the three doses. The runny nose outside her face to the lip is gone and she can breathe a little through her nose now, but I can still hear her sniffing wet mucus back in her nasal passage. Her coughing has gotten less frequent and it sounds dryer than it was yesterday, but it's still worse upon lying down, and worse after eating/nursing and it sometimes goes into choking/gagging/near vomiring. Her eyes have become less glassy as the day progresses. Her stool is back to normal as well. Her mood is much better today too.

However since giving her the remedy, on her right cheek there is bright red circle the size of a US quarter as though she was bitten. There is no bite though and it's not painful. She has put her finger into her left ear as though it is itchy as well.

I should say that this has been a slow developing cold at first that suddenly got worse. She started showing some symptoms on Wednesday (post nasal drip with occasional coughing) and it was that way on Thursday too but Friday it got much much worse and has gotten worse every day since. Just want to ensure we are still on the right track. It's so interesting to see the one red cheek after having red about it for certain remedies but never having seen it. Unmistakable.

Hello again. Any thoughts on bad dreams for my 2.5 year old? I'm trying to decide between carcinosum, sulphur, and calc carb.

Nightmares are from 2-6am, waking with a cry or yelling or talking. Dreams of her friends taunting her. Often wants to be held to fall back asleep, wakes easily and often at noises from 3-6am. The worst being between 5-6 where she will wake every 10-20 minutes.

She sleeps in our room and tries to push her bedtime with playing more. She gets hyper before bed. She has no true fears but she sometimes gets nervous around strangers, hates having her head wet, seems to feel nervous around tiny bugs and doesn't like being in a car. Loves the ocean, loves playing, loves coloring, loves singing, loves animals, loves music and dancing, loves big kids and babies, loves most things.

She is still underweight but eating a little better, preferring fruits and meats to all other foods. No longer sensitive to milk and wheat.

She is very verbal and much more talkative than others her age (started speaking very early). She is very happy but gets frustrated easily and is very changeable with her emotions.

She usually strains to make a bowel movement and sometimes her bowel movements are like little pebbles. The scent is normal. She goes regularly. She does not want to potty train yet and will actively pee on the floor instead of in the potty if given time without a diaper. We don't pressure her though.

I tried ignatia, stramonium, chamomila, and sulphur (all in 30c) already without much help over the past few months. I thought sulphur because of the timing when she wakes and because she still runs hot and gets diaper rash here and there. Chamomila seemed to fit her changeable emotions and wanting to be held but it didn't help at all. Ignatia and stramonium were suggested to me but stramonium really didn't seem to fit her and truly made no difference. Ignatia seemed to help the first night but not the next night.

I was thinking of Carcinosum because this night waking has been chronic since birth and also there is a lot of family C (pancreatic in paternal grandfather and glioblastoma in maternal grandfather).

I continue to think sulphur because of the timing when she wakes but maybe a higher potency is needed since 30c didn't work.

Calc carb because she has a recent history of catching colds easily although she has gotten MUCH better in the past two months. She is slow to grow but she is not at all flabby and languid. She is thin and very active. Her bones are tiny like mine and I was always underweight too. She doesn't really seem like a calc carb type to me though.

She is likely similar to me with her dreams--I have had very vivid dreams since I was very small too. Usually of a fighting nature but I've had a lot of trauma in my past. Noting bad has ever happened to our daughter and she is not exposed to violence or fighting. She is the smallest one in her group of friends so she is often physically intimidated by the bigger kids just because of their size. Other than usual kid issues over sharing toys, she doesn't have a lot of conflict with them but she is knocked over easily if they wobble near her or try to hug her. She seems to want her space and doesn't like big kids standing too close to her because of this.

Frankly, this is two years of bad sleep and it's really really hard on all of us. I don't understand why we can't find a solution. Pulsatilla for three days followed by sulphur used to help a year ago, but not anymore. She isn't teething anymore, she has no bad stuff in her life, and aside from being small, there is nothing physically wrong with her. Just cannot sleep. Any helps would be great.

Hi. Thank you. I did as instructed with no significant change although she doesn't wake up to cling to me in the middle of the night every night. Maybe 80% of the time she does but sometimes she doesn't. Any thoughts? Thank you.
