Hello Sameer,
My daughter has started to cough up mucous, starting at the throat but also coming from the upper chest.
her chest feels very tight, but it is starting to expectorate slightly. She is also in not a very good mood today, telling people to just go away.
Thank you,

Hello Sameer,
I am supposed to report back, I believe, when the cold has finished. It is finished, the chest and the head cleared well, now when it is cold or if she has been exposed to the cold wind, I hear her throat sometimes-she tries to clear it or she protects it with a scarf.
She seems to have gained a bit of weight, sometimes craving something sweet, I think this is a premenstual symptoms mostly, this time also comes with a bit of an exaggerated emotionalism.
Her hand is still a noticeable problem, when she twists it it is still painful although not as severe as before her remedy, and when she carries a bag, she does not hold it in her hand, rather she puts her straps in the forearm and bends at the elbow. So it is the wrist muscles that are giving her the biggest trouble.
She is steadfast in her homework, but she does get tired from it, saying that she needs some more time to be carefree (if it wasn't for all her homework she would be having more fun), but she is doing it.
I find she does use extra salt, she seems to ask for the salt shaker.
She has white spots on some nails and she chews her fingernails, especially when she is stressed or nervous.
An interesting characteristic: she has extremely sharp hearing, she will hear someone wispering from upstairs.
Thank you
Marika

Hello,
They are at least two nails that I saw on one hand, and they are those spots that we may call the zinc spots or does it signify a mineral deficiency, I forget.
Right now she is sleeping, but I will check more thoroughly tomorrow to tell you exactly how many nails they are on.
I also see them on my son's fingers that is why I know they are there.
Thank you

Hello,
I have checked the nails, they are about 3 nails with white spots, and they are the regular white spots that is seen on nails.
She said that they are usually there, they just grow out once in a while.
As I mentioned, she chews her nails, as a result they are very short.
Thank You,
M

Hello Sameer,
The reason I am writing back so soon is because my daughter came back from school today saying her head was throbbing all day, and her chest was painful, when she coughs it feels like 'something is pulling and hurting'.
She also said that it felt as if she was wheezing when she tried to breathe.
She also felt some diziness, now she is sleeping, she may sleep all night.
I think she may have been afraid that she has a bad flu or something, I felt she was scared about that.
Please advise me on what to do in this case.
thank you,
Marika

I forgot to say that I gave her Silica 30C as prescribed.

Then, I would recommend waiting as it is too soon to intervene.
Update me in about 1 week from now, unless ofcourse things get worse.

Ok, I will wait. She also has very strong low back pain and is presently covered up in bed with lots of blankets.

Hello Sameer,
Re: my daughter's cold:
She has been off school since last Tuesday, but will be going back tomorrow Monday.
This remedy (Silica 30C) has affected her I think most deeply. The first night she took it she had a surge of energy and tackled her Math homework, saying to me that she understands her Math more clearly. She did a lot of homework that night, without any complaining or comments that she has no life except for doing homework.
A couple of days after that she started with a chest/heald cold, probably the strongest she has had to this day. at least in quite a while.
by strong I mean that she released a lot of mucous from her head and the lungs, it took a few days, but she is still clearing stuff from her head and coughing up stuff.
She also had diarrhea for two days, this is not unusual for her when she gets sick, it is usually in her stomach.
This time, however, her head and lungs were working very hard to cleanse.
She is almost toward the end, but not quite finished yet, she is still coughing.
Her energy is ok but not 100%, but she cannot miss anymore school.
The doses of Silica were given on Oct. 17.
thank you very much.

Hi Marika,
Good signs indeed, and Silicea will act, long and deep.
Next step will be 200c, but right now we must wait.

Hello Sameer,
I am seeing an improvement in my daughter on the mental level. Here is how:
She is showing signs of more endurance in her homework performance. She does have a very heavy load, and sometimes she is doing homework for hours on end, but I find that she is more willing to do it without falling apart. She gets tired of course, she might complain about the volume of work, but she is more apt to doing it.
Mentall she seems more capable or inwwardly more enduring, at least it seems that way these days.
When do you estimate she might need the Silicea 200C? I will tell my daughter to give it to her at the appropriate time.

Hi Marika,
This is excellent :)
I would expect her to need in a week to 10 days from now.
But, she should not take it without talking to me.

I will ask my oldest daughter to post you so you can guide her as to when is the right time.
I thank you so much for your help.

Hello Sameer,
I am Marika's daughter, and I am following up on the previous postings.
From what I understand, the Silicea 30C was given to improve my sister's wrist, her energy and her perseverance. I was to write to you before giving her 200C. May I describe what I see in her so far?
It appears that she is more tolerant to her studying, and doesn't cry or get overly discouraged. She does vocalize a lot- she will often speak her assignments out loud as she is working on them, and verbalizes her answers. She will verbalize any thoughts she is having about the assignment, and she will often get distracted from her assignment, then bring herself back again. She will stop as soon as she gets tired, and I find she needs to sleep for about nine or even ten hours a night to recharge. She seems to have great energy, and a positive outlook and she is very affectionate and caring when dealing with her brother and I; she isn't often impatient.
Physically, she's commented on how she hasn't lost any weight, but isn't gaining any either. She often doesn't eat breakfast, or eats a light breakfast. She struggles with acne-prone skin but has done so for a while, ever since she hit puberty, basically. Her skin is very prone to scarring.
I don't know if any of these details help in deciding whether or not to give her the next dose of remedy, but if you need further information, please let me know!
thank you ever so much,
B

Hi B,
I think we are seeing great improvements, so we should just keep on waiting.
Update in another week please.

Hello Sameer,
Here is the update you asked for.
As aforementioned, my sister's energy is better, she is more willing to do the tasks in front of her. I noticed that she displayed some frustration and apathy during her menstrual cycle, specifically the first and second day of menstruation. She didn't get out of her pyjamas on her day off, and didn't do any of her homework during the day, then stayed up late to do it, and woke up late the next day. This is uncharacteristic of her. She is also more prone to weepiness and frustration during this time.
Thank you so much Sameer!
