The ABC Homeopathy Forum

second opinion

I have been on a combo remedy since last week of June
China,Gelsemium, Kali carb,200.
I am being treated for low cortisol and hormone imbalances.
I felt good for only a few weeks and now I feel like I regressed.
My dosage is to take 4 pills 3x a day
Can anyone tell me if this is too much??
And how do I gradually take my self off of it b/c if I stop cold turkey I end up with headaches. I get headaches anyway.
But some are more severe than others.
the homeopath that i email to has not been responding.
Is it a healing crisis when you get the severe symptoms again
Any input is appreciated
I am frustrated

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Firstly you should not be taking more than one remedy at once. Only one of those medicines can be the correct one, the other two...since they are incorrect...can have negative effects on your health.

Secondly, you have been given far too many doses, without any supervision by your homoeopath. This is negligent on their part and I suggest you find a new practitioner who practices homoeopathy according to the Principles of our medicine - SINGLE REMEDY, MINIMUM DOSE,SIMILARITY OF DISEASE AND DIRECTION OF CURE. If your practitioner does not know what these are, or dismisses them, you are not with the right practitioner.

I would stop all medicines immediately. There is no risk of withdrawal with homoeopathy. If you are aggravating or proving the remedy (getting side effects) these should stop in a few weeks.

since there was only one reply, i'll assume that everyone has agreed with Brisbanehomeopath.
Is there anything I can do to deal with aggravation?
How do I get this stuff out?
Drink fluids to flush out.
Thank you for your input.
I am disappointed in this practioner
 
Suzy528 last decade
The effects of the remedies are not physical, they are effects on the Vital Force itself. Therefore physical measures wont really work to counter them. Your only real options are to wait until the effects diminish naturally with time, or to seek treatment with another practitioner who is competent in homoeopathic prescribing. Some other therapies can work to counter this too, such as Acupuncture and Chinese medicine - some body workers can do this if they work with the energy of the client. Shiatsu massage seems very effective.

I often say that homoeopathy in the hands of an ignorant practitioner is dangerous.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
In order to deal with the aggravations, we will need to know your complete history. Fill the standard questionnaire available on the forum so that we can help you further.

I am experiencing hot flashes right now and weakness and some heaviness in my chest where my adrenals are. I am also having a dull headache at my right temple.
Like I could pass out.
I am due for my menstrual cycle soon.
I am scared because the prescibed remedie (its actually a combo made into 1 set of pills) he/she made was aimed at my hormones. This is tied to my hormones.
It may make me sicker to stop cold turkey. I am down to 1 dose a day 4pills.
I am also concerned because of the possibility of an electrolyte imbalance
Isn't kali carb-- potassium carbonate??
How long does the dose have an effect? OR when does 1 dose wear off.
The last dose was fri morning at 9am.
I will look for the questionaire.
I am scared. that doesn't help does it
 
Suzy528 last decade
Pl. give details of your menses cycle and difficulty experienced during those days.

It helps to decide the appropriate homeo medicine.

In the meanwhile, you may be beniffited by the following:

- Stop your current medicines immediately
- Drinks lots of water and fruit juices
- Have a couple of cups of strong coffee
- Apply some strongly perfumed natural oil to your hair

Regards

Niel
 
Niel Madhavan last decade
Be aware, that a proper case can only be taken in person, and any more remedies used inappropriately may just add to the burden on your body. Playing with homoeopathy any other way carries risks, and without entering into a contract with a practitioner you are not protected in any way.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Please help me find the questionaire.
AnD I will try the fruit juices and water, coffee
(The condition being treated was for a chronic hormone imbalance, particularly adrenals.) The doctor was a MD too.
So if i can come off of the medicines and be ok
it would put me more at ease
thank you all
 
Suzy528 last decade
Just type questionnaire in the search box and you will find a post started by Dr. Kadwa.

Online consulting has its limitations but a properly taken case will often help in finding the cure.

The basic difference between clinical and online consulting from a physician's pt. of view is that he has to be doubly sure of the condition by asking a lot of questions. But that does not mean, it is completely useless.

Regards

Niel
 
Niel Madhavan last decade
I completely understand
I just want to come off of it
and feel safe and ok.
and seek a local practioner naturopath or clinical nutritionist to help me.
I do not know if and how my body will react after.
I want to tell the dr. online I am choosing to discontinue but I know they will discourage me from doing so.
supposedly he's had 25+ years in practice. I guess some people practice homeopathy differenty b/c they always told me it was perfectly safe when they were prescribing me
(the combo remedies)
 
Suzy528 last decade
Anyone that tells you homoeopathy is perfectly safe is lying. Anything with the power to heal has the power to harm - and homoeopathy has great power. When used correctly, they are very gentle, but they can be misused very easily (as you can see). Those people that misuse it have very little respect for that power, and I suspect, very little faith in the minute dose.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
I stopped taking the remedy yesterday. I am experiencing hot flashes and weakness and digestive issues.
I also have these prominent dark circles under my eyes
I am worried about the unknown. I am also having bouts of heaviness in my chest. I am terrified of adrenal collapse. I am contemplating taking some adrenal support supplements so it doess't happen too severely
If I see an acupuncturist,whom I;ve been to before-- what can i tell him, to help me???
I do not have any good homeopaths locally and really not in the mood to try just anyone.
Thanks for the support.
I am terrified of ending up in the hospital.
 
Suzy528 last decade
Can you experience withdrawal symptoms from homeopathy??
At a resting state, my pulse is at 90. I feel like a reved up engine inside, but not moving fast. this is my second day off of the remedies. I am hoping by the 3rd day things will improve.
 
Suzy528 last decade
They sent me a new medicine.
Mag Mur 200C
Does anyone know anything about this medicine??
I am having terrible insomnia and hot flashes and terrible digestive issues, gassy+ belching since i stopped the other medicines. I am also at 36 days and no menses.
Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks Neil.
None of that applied to me.
I don't plan on taking anymore of his stuff. I do not trust them.
I am very upset about that.
How do I know if the symptoms I am experiencing are from aggravations from the remedies? China/Gelsemium/ kali carb
I have terrible insomnia, I am so tired my eyes feel dried out from not having them closed enough for sleep, deep dark circles under my eyes and feel very anxious
and terrible hot flashes. and cycle is late 35-36 days
Is there a way to antidote any of this???
Will my body try to stabilized or have I been damaged from taking those remedies??
Please advise.
 
Suzy528 last decade
If you are proving any remedy, that can be antidoted. For me to be of any help, you will have to mention all your symptoms, mental and physica, in as much detail as possible.

Also, let us know, what has changed after you took he remedies.

Regards

Niel

I need a second opinion.
I finally contacted the homeopath b/c i have been so concerned about the hot flashes and weakness and that they were the ones that have been treating me the whole time so i was hoping that they could give me some resolution.
They told me to stop the other stuff and take the mag mur 200.
how can i safely take this to see if its the right remedy.

here you go...take a sharp short sniff of Camphora 6c.

Method : Buy a new bottle of Camphora 6c in dilution, open the lid and take a sharp snort where you should feel the smell of the alcoholic solution.

Post back in 3 days.

Niel

P.S. : Don't be disheartened if you don't feel much of a change immediately.
