The ABC Homeopathy Forum

Sugar cravings, carb cravings

I am a sixty year old woman suffering with Rheumatoid Arthritis. I seem to have uncontrollable carbohydrate cravings. I look for sugar in any form, eat tons of it then I get hungry for food.

I was always a little bit overweight but these last few years I have gained more weight. After I was diagnosed w/RA I put on about 30 lbs in 6 months which is very depressing to me. I seem to have lost all discipline.

I would appreciate any suggestions to help me control
this problem. Thank you.

I take methotrexate, one dose weekly.

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

Sugar craving is a sign of the Psoric miasm .

But if the arthritis is inflammatory then previous treatment of a medical problem could be the initial cause.

Really need to see a good homeopath.

Thank you. Looking for a good Homeopath but how can one tell if a homeopath is good? I have contacted one by email. Again thank you for your quick response.

lucky to find ''good'' homoeopath.....beware the charlatan.........firstly dont get envolved with anyone --whom doesnt take your case FULLY--particularly chronic condition...(NEVER FOLLOW THE QUICK PRESCRIBER...maybe good guess..but most times just foolish whims)...secondly..follow no ones advice if unable to follow up case--particularly whe n symptom flare ups occur--or intercurrent acute phases of the treatment....thirdly....beware the fellow that simply says take so and so remedy multiple times for periods of time ------single dose at 30c-then single dose 200c first (as probes to individuals response) then posibly LM repetitions when DEFINTIVE symptoms of proper chosen remedy exist,,this validates repertition---but based still UPON response..stop and go..

basically interigate the doctor..no insult to 'good'' homoeopath just ask his/her method....if dont address the above mentioned and just ramble about philosophy...then forget them...
