Agorophobia prevents Schooling Page 2 of 3

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Well it's been months now and my daughter is doing quite well in terms of her agrophobia. She has only had one or two times where she felt a little dizzy over the last 4 months and she not only goes to school but she goes out to stores. She seems to not be a scared child anymore. She has really grown up in many ways but I am also wondering if this rememdy could be the cause of her recent weight gain. She has gained 10 lbs and its all in her belly with a lot of cellulite. She has always been proned to some excess in the belly but this is extreme. If you look at her legs and upper body she looks like an avg girl but her stomach...she looks like she is obese. She seems to only eat the same things over and over and won't even try anything else...anything with cheese and pasta. She use to not eat a lot of sweets and now she is them a lot.

Just curious if this is a result of the rememdy.

Ailments can move from mental to physical levels as that is the curative direction. However, I have never seen corpulence result from this process.

Whatever is happening , it is most definitely curative, as the mental plane which is the deepest indication of disease is getting better.

Doctor,
Your answer does not indicate if there is anything we can do to help my daughter with this. It has been 4 months and it seems to get worse month by month.

This is an old post but I did want to see if you would help once again. My daughter has been doing well this past year and right after Christmas break she began having her panic attacks once again. She did not go to school.

I submitted some help in another post but then I thought it would be best to see if we can continue with the same post.

Right before Xmas she found out that her grandmother has cancer. We initially were told by our local cancer center that it did not look good at all. We have grandmother to another cancer center and we now have some hope that they may be able to treat her. I mention this because I am wondering if this contributed to the reoccurance. She is also now receiving offer letters from college and so she may also be thinking of no longer living at home.

In any event, she was unable to go to school after her Xmas break. She has also needed me to sleep with her because she can't fall to sleep and feels anxious. She has been talking a lot the last week about her panic attacks, depression and says its like a dark cloud that consumes her. She just doesn't know what to do. She now tells me that her anxiety was much better but this is why she still likes to be in her room a lot and watch TV all the time. So even this past year when I thought things were much better -- for her they were better but there were still some issues...keeping to herself

I am considering giving her the Lachesis again but would like your advise.

Please help. It is difficult to see your child in such emotional pain.

What was the last potency of Lachesis we gave to her ?
 
sameervermani last decade
I can't say with 100% certainty but I think the 200C. I don't see in the forum where you stated to give her the 1M.
 
l471530 last decade
And, you never self prescribed it without my instructions did you ?
 
sameervermani last decade
I looked to see if I ever even purchased the 1M and I did not. So I believe the 200C was the last dose she had. I may have given her something a few months ago (would have been a 30c) for some bad headaches and cramps she was having...I don't have anything written down and she can't remember either.
 
l471530 last decade
So, let us go to Lachesis 1M single dose. Dissolve 2 pellets in 250 ml spring water, and give a teaspoon from there. Report in 15 days.

It is important for good treatment that you follow-up regularly and stay in touch.
 
sameervermani last decade
I will order and keep you posted.
 
l471530 last decade
I received the remedy of 1M Lachesis and held off giving it to my daughter until this past Wed. 1/26 (she had mid terms at school and I did not want her to be compromised if she had a strong reaction). I gave as you prescribed. Its been 2 days and nothing to report as of yet. I will report back after 13 more days and let you know how it goes.
 
l471530 last decade
My daughter has not noticed any big differences at all. I have notice that she is not spending all her time in her room and is acutally come downstairs more often to engage with the family. She did have a sore throat starting three days ago but we have had a lot of illnesses going around.

I will report after the complete 15 days which will be around. Jan 10. Please let me know if I need to ask her any specific questions.
 
l471530 last decade
It will take 2-3 weeks to see a difference.
 
sameervermani last decade
Is that 2 - 3 more weeks or from Jan 26th? thank you.

Jan 26th

It has now been a month since my daughter has taken her remedy. A few weeks ago my dauther woke up in the middle of the night from a bad dream. She was fighting off a big huge snake. After that, she has felt very sick to her stomach and has vomitted once and feels like she wants to vomit everyday. She seems very short with me for the last month and is only interested in talking when it suits her and she needs something. She had her period this past month (last week) and she was in bed all day feeling very constipated and with bad cramps (like she use to have before she went on birth control pills to alleviate the severe cramps -- 3 years ago). When I ask about her constipation, she says its not that she can't go at all but she feels constipated and her poop makes her bottom feel sore. She says her consistency has not changed though.

Please advise.

I should also mention that my daughter has mentioned several times that he sense of smell is much more intense and she doesn't like to even go into our refrigerator to get food or drinks. She sometimes even has her shirt around her nose. Also, she is becoming more and more picky in terms of food. Food smell, texture, and look prevent her from eating most foods. She is not eating dinners because she doesn't like anything I make. She seems to be eating oatmeal in the morning, bread, mac and cheese and pizza. At 17 yrs of age, I don't feel like I can force her to eat. Although she has always been a picky eater, this rememdy seems to have made it worse and accentuate it.
 
l471530 last decade
Hmm..has she ever had Argentum Nitricum ?
 
sameervermani last decade
She has never had Argentum Nitricum. I should also mention that after initially taking Lachesis 1M she was saying she felt like she had to burp all the time and now she wants to vomit. Not sure if it makes any difference.
 
l471530 last decade
Hmm..and what does she do when she feels panicky ? Describe her state in detail.

How hurried or slow is she in her actions ?
 
sameervermani last decade
Hmm..she's hurried in her thoughts...rather impulsive. On the contrary, her physical movement is slow, almost lazy, and she likes to lie in bed alot, doing homework, reading or on her computer.
 
l471530 last decade
Please give her a single dose of Argentum nitricum 200c, and report after 2 weeks.
 
sameervermani last decade
I will buy some and let you know. Please tell me if I just take under the tongue or did you want me to put into water. Thank you.
 
l471530 last decade
Dissolve 2 pellets in a small bottle of spring water, stir, and give a spoon to her ONCE.
 
sameervermani last decade
Okay. Apparently no one sells the 200C here locally so I just placed an order and should have it in 3 days or so. I'll keep you posted.
 
l471530 last decade
MY daughter took on March 1st, her dose of Argentum Nitricu.. She is complaining of headaches and being very 'gassy' even though she claims she has had no change in diet.

I never mentioned this before and wonder if it too can help to determine remedy path for my daughter.

My daughter was born with an excessive amount of hair -- most children did not even have the amount of hair my daughter was born with until almost 3 yrs of age. I bring this up because my daughter is always worried about the excessive dark hair she has in places she does not think a woman should have. She has hair on her back, stomach, around her breast, buttock etc. My husband is also a very hairy person with hair on his whole body -- excessive amounts.

Just thought I would mention. In any event, I will continue to keep you posted.
