Request for Help

Where to begin? 12 years of illness and a whole life savings spent on MDs and many different types of alternative health practitioners later, I find myself in great need of help. I am hoping some kind, relatively advanced practitioner can assist me. I would be MOST grateful as I have serious doubts as to whether I will make it through the summer
without a drastic change of events.

I am very pale, 43, blonde, very thin with very weak digestion and enormous heat in my body (seemingly focused in a stagnant liver?? and having spread to other areas of my body including my bladder, genitals, and blood). I run cold, especially my hands and feet.

My childhood diseases were primarily lung-related: asthma and pneumenia many times. 12 years ago I experienced a major
emotional shock (related to kundalini awakening, if that means anything to anyone) which has gotten increasingly complicated as time has progressed.

Current isssues include cystitis & great heat, stagnation, and pain in my lower body--which also effects my heart & causes anxiety & insomnia. After going to Dr. for frequent urination less than a year ago, I was given Cipro antibiotic, which only made the symptoms much worse, as come to find out the frequent urination was probably caused by yeast not bacteria. Then the MDs gave me many types of strong antifungals for an extended period of time, before
the yeast infection their antibiotics caused was no longer itching. I seem to have the signs of a systemic yeast infection at this point. At the minimum, the antfungals seem to have caused much more liver stagnation, worse digestion, and greater heat throughout the body and blood.

Where to go from here??? What else can I tell you to give thorough enough info to make a clear decision???!

I am not ready to die. I believe in my heart I have an important mission to carry out first. If someone would please help me I would be eternally grateful.

May God bless you and guide you, all of you precious healers! Thank you so much for taking the time to read my post!

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
p.s. I forgot to mention. I have had numerous boils over the past 2 years. Last summer I had great heat that radiated out from an area near my tail bone--causing my entire body to blister between my thighs and the bottom of my rib cage. I was given high doses of Predrazone, which eventually knocked out the heat, but which also knocked out my digestion. I lost 20 lbs. I am starting to have more related heat symptoms this year (heat rash, etc) and it's not even really very hot yet. Very thin already w/very weak digestion--I doubt I could make it through another round of Predrazone this summer. Please, please, please help me get better before it gets hotter! Many blessings to you, L

Take two doses of Sulphur 200...one in the morning and other in the evening on Sunday.

Avoid other meds that day.

Wait for results to show up in 2/3 days.

Post feed back.

Dear Pankaj Varma,

Thank you for your suggestion regarding Sulphur 200. I just went to the store and bought it. I will plan on trying it tomorrow. I need to wait 20 minutes before/after food to take it, right?
Is it important to avoid other meds, herbs, and vitamins the 2-3 days after I take the Sulphur, too? I'll keep you posted on the outcome. I very much appreciate your help.

Best Wishes to you and yours!

Outcome:

Day 1 After Sulfur & Especially Day 2: Significant improvement in lower body symptoms (heat, pain, stagnation, urinary frequency), also less prickly heat--amazing considering it was 15 degrees hotter outside than it has been. But I stayed inside all almost all day as not feeling well--so remedy did not receive a full test. Chills alternating with heat & pressure/pain in my head. Even being out in the sun 1-2 minutes caused much discomfort in my head--pressure caused by a heat that felt like a thick, steamy vapor. Crying several times, lasts only very briefly. For months now it usually comes daily at least once in morning and once around 1-3 pm. My symptoms always seem to improve a bit after the short (~2-3 minunte) cries, then the heat/stagnation/pain starts building up in lower body then head--until another emotional release begins the cycle again. Odd to be crying so much this past number of months as I rarely if ever did when young.

Day 3 after Sulphur (today): not doing quite as well today as day 2. More stagnation/pain in lower body. A bit more prickly heat sensation, but thank heavens still no full blown red blotches or boils after another pretty warm day. I do hope I don't continue to head in the wrong direction however. Is this an indication it's not the right formula possibly?

I also wonder if Sulphur not working completely may be related to my having drinken a big glass of peppermint tea between doses 1 & 2 of Sulfur & having eaten garlic and other spices day 1 after Sulfur(before remembering such foods can deactivate homeopathy). Should I try 2 doses of 200 Sulfur again, being more careful about my diet this time? Or a new game plan?

Is there a complete list of all foods I should avoid for homeopathy that I can access on the web? Do I need to avoid the foods just while I'm taking the remedies, just until I improve, or from here on out--to avoid return of symptoms?

I appreciate your help very much, and am eager to hear input about what I could try next. I am hopefully homeopathy
will be my ticket to health after much discomfort--as it has had more positive impact than other therapies so far. Please keep your fingers crossed. ;)

Best Wishes,
L

p.s. I forgot to mention: The heat in my head is associated w/ a sort of 'fast, uncomfortable vibration' around my heart area--which reduces or vanishes temporarily w/ the emotional releases. In addition, any frustration or anger I experience seems to make most all of my symptoms worse.

If anyone has recommendations for especially good, fairly easily accessible books about homeopathy--I would love to hear about them. Needless to say, I am surprised & fascinated to discover how such tiny little sugar pills could have such a big effect.

p.p.s. I also intended to say, bneofre a family member called me, that after things got worse in lower body at one point this morning--later a very fine energy felt like it was coming in my chakra 1 area--then immeditae significant improvement of most of my symptoms before them falling off again about an hour later. I have been in this 'slump' most of the rest of the day now. :(

Please help! I want to feel better again!!!!

Love and best wishes to all,
L

One last possibility I just thought of: might my relapse be hormonally related? It is typical that most my symptoms get worse shortly before my period (the timeframe I have just entered).
