myopia - physostigma | From RB123 [Log on to view profile] | on 2006-10-27 |

I have been taking physostigma 6c for approximatelyy 7 months now based on some readings in various books and this website.
I have been taking the 6c potency once a day and have noticed almost no improvement. Should I increase the potency to 30c once a day or take the 6c more frequently. |

Immediately stop the medicine and contact a good, exprienced, qualified local homeopath.

Sajjad,
Actually I was just reading one of your posts where you recommended 30c potency. You don't think it it worth a try...

Thanks,

If 6c didn't help you even after 7 months, it is unlikely that 30c will help you.
Even low potencies like 6c should be discontinued after a few weeks, and time should be given to observe the remedy response. | | |

Hi Sajjad
You used to give repertorial analysis.
That will help many, to understand why a medicine is selected and how.
Particularly when medicine is selected bases on a questionnery.
