Hi All
I am enquiring about a remedy for my mum. She is currently going through the menopause. She is 48 years old and is suffering from hot sweats at night, hot flushes throughout the day, she is very stressed at the min,anxious, depressed, also feels very spaced out at times ... She also has trouble sleeping at night.
Does anyone have any remedies in mind which will help her?
Are there any other questions that need answering in order to come up with a remedy?
Thanks for your help, its most appreciated

please ask her to take three doses of Lachesis 30c at a gap of 4 hours on a single day. The doses should not be repeated daily. She should observe changes in her symptoms atleast for one week. The next remedy should be thought of only after one week. |
