I took a look at this case again, and I think if you have the 200c of Carc, then it would be fine to start with that.
My recommendation would be put one drop of the Carc. 200c if in liquid into a 10oz container of purified water. Let it dissolve, and then give the patient one small sip of the solution. If it's in pellets, dissolve one pellet in 10oz water, and give him one small sip of that. Please report the response at least 24 hours after the dose.
Also, with the family history of cancer in your ancestry, are you on a homeopathic remedy? You can add your case here if you would like.

Yes, let's try it! Talked to my supplier again today and they are still waiting for it. 200C should be fine. I will start it tomorrow and report back.
I am a typical Sepia. Homeopath confirmed it a few years ago. I am about to start taking it again. Or should I also take Carcinosin before the Sepia?
(will start a new case)

My son took a wet dose of Carcinosin 200C yesterday at 12pm.
This morning he suddenly got his activity books (books for pre and early primary school children with a whole range of exercises)out and said he wanted to do some work! I was busy but he entertained himself with the books for a while.
Before bedtime we always read a basic little book for early readers from school together. Well, so far he always refused to read and only looked at the pictures and then just guessed what was written. Today he actually looked at the text and was reading, not perfect but quite good! Wow! I know from treating colds etc that the remedies work really fast but can that be already a sign that Carcinosin works as well?
Apart from that I have not noticed any changes.
In a few days I will ask his teacher if she noticed anything.

Actually there was another little change. We were at a playground and when I asked my son to leave he immediately came without the usual arguments!

Very good!
This does seem to be due to the Carc. Let's wait and see what other effects there are. Please report any other new differences in symptoms. Looks like the Carc. is having a very good effect.

It's now one week that my son took one dose of Carcinosin.
As already said, the next day he was very focused and volunteered to do schoolwork. He read and then on Monday he even wrote a word. Well, it wasn't correct and the letters left a bit to imagination but it was a remarkable effort because in the past he always refused to do it.
Unfortunately I have to say that the last two days we were almost back to square one. He doesn't want to read and pulls a face when asked to do so but his general behaviour seems still a bit more settled than before he took the remedy.
Should I give him another wet dose of Carcinosin 200C or wait?

'his general behaviour seems still a bit more settled than before he took the remedy.'
In this case I think it's best to wait and see. A 200c usually lasts much longer than 7 days.

Thanks, will wait and see.
Will ask his teacher again in a few days as well. Last week she hadn't noticed any changes.

Two weeks since he took the dose of Carcinosin and his interest in school work is almost nill again.
I asked my son's teacher if she noticed any changes and the answer was no.
I was told that a few days earlier at the last assembly when they sang the anthem he sang the melody but made up his own words (even though he knows the lyrics). He didn't stop after teacher and then principal told him to do so.
According to his teacher he 'doesn't accept authority'. Well, I have my own opinion on 'authority' but of course I don't want him to be naughty.

CCan you look at the list of carc. Symptoms that this patient has from the first page of this discussion, and tell if there is anything different, especially with childhood insomnia, foods, music, emotions, caring for animals, craving for chocolate, etc.

Everything almost the same again. The only thing is that the teeth grinding is not as bad as it used to be. He is not behaving at school. The other day he was crawling around under the tables and as a consequence had to have time out. There is something almost every day.
The last few days he also developed a kind of a tick. He turns almost every piece of paper he can get his hands on into a folded plane. Ok, almost every piece is exaggerated but many anyway. Now I am afraid that he could have an autistic inclination though he not only plays with these paper planes but still does other things too and he can be easily distracted.

It's been less than a month, and we don't usually repeat a 200c that often. It's really important to understand if other symptoms are different at all, to see what miasmatic improvements might be happening, or even if it's time to use a different remedy.
Is there still an oversensitivity to animals? Is the nighttime waking as much? Are the other complaints worse or improved. The more info we have about the more symptoms, the more sure we will know what to do next.

I read through everything again and apart from the teeth grinding there is not much change. He is disobedient again, still loves/dislikes the same food and is not much interested in reading/writing though that is still a bit better than before.
What I noticed over the last few days is that once he acquires a new skill like the paper plane folding, he is keen to repeat it often. Yesterday he put a puzzle together and then he repeated that task a few times. The same today when he taught himself how to do summer saults in the pool.
Well, that's really the only changes I noticed.

Many of the symptoms you describe, repetitive activities, learning disabilities, are from the inherited figwart maims. Carcinosin can't cure those symptoms because it's not similar to them. Carcinosin can remove the inherited cancer predisposition and many of the symptoms presented earlier in the case. There will definitely be a need for another medicine in addition to Care
You may give the Carc container 10 hard shakes and give one more dose and report the effects.

5 days ago my son had another dose of Carcinosin 30C and no change at all.
Do you think it's time for another remedy now? I did a bit more research and I got three remedies shortlistet: Baryta Carb, Phos and Lyc.
Baryta due to his sometimes childish behaviour and learning difficulties. He is not small in height but small in mind so to speak of, even though is is quick thinking as long as school work is not concerned. He also reached his milestones a bit later than his peers.
Often (but not always) behaves younger than his age, sometimes physically a bit akward/clumsy (except swimming and diving), can't concentrate and his best friends are mostly younger than himself or of the same gentle temperament.
This made me also think of Lyc. which is often for children that have problems with reading and writing and asserting themselves among their peer group. He also prefers 'grazing' to a large meal, can be bossy at home and sometimes suffers from flatulence. By the way, his father was a typical Lyc.
Phos because of his appearance, outgoing nature, love of people (and the way they react to him, always comment on his beautiful nature and looks) and his love for cold drinks/food.
He is also vulnerable to all sorts of influences which can affect his mood and his attention in school.
In Kent's Repertory Baryta Carb is followed well by Lyc.
Lyc and Phos follow each other well.
I am tempted to give him a dose of Baryta 30C and wait to see what happens.
What's your opinion?

Let's think about this case a bit differently. There are two main miasms here with different symptoms. These are not going to be cured quickly, but there should be progressive improvement with roughly noticeable improvement each month.
CANCER MIASM
Family history.
Inability to grieve after loss / traumatized / bottling things up.
Inability to cry.
Brown spots.
Child with sleep problems.
Love of music.
Love of animals.
Craves chocolate.
Overly kind / childhood idealistic vegetarianism.
INHERITED FIGWART MIASM
Learning disabilities/dyslexia.
Can't learn left and right.
Physically awkward and clumsy.
Repetition of things like folding paper planes.
These are two different causes, and they will be cured somewhat separately. The cancer miasm will probably need to be removed first.
I don't see any symptoms of Bar-C in this case, and few of Lycopodium. There could be some Phos. symptoms, but Phos. doesn't fully cover what you've described. The miasms are very plain in this case. Learning disabilities are due to the figwart miasm, and will not help you find the remedy as symptoms.
I want to mention that in the beginning of this discussion, the complaints focused on the loss of dad/relatives, his emotions/or lack around that. You haven't mentioned those things lately. Is it possible that they have improved somewhat? Is he still waking in the middle of the night? Does he still crave chocolate? How are his emotions?
Does he, you, or did his father have any warts?
I think that he hasn't gotten enough of the Carc. to make a difference. Because there was an good improvement after the first dose, I think that is a good sign that Carc. is of value here.
My recommendation is to give a larger dose of Carc, made a bit differently.
Give the Carc. container 15 hard shakes, and put 15 drops in a container of water (reduce to 50z of water). Then give him two tablespoons. Ask him how he feels about 10 minutes afterwards.
I don't doubt that a remedy like Phos. will be of value later in this case, but Carc. still seems most appropriate by far.

Correction... when you make the remedy this time, shake the remedy 15 times, put 15 drops of the Carc. into *5 ounces* of water.
Reducing to 5 ounces of water will make the remedy more powerful.
Then give two tablespoons of the liquid.

Emotions seem to be the same, have not noticed any difference.
There are no warts in the family and he is still coming into my bed every night. Loves to eat chocolate but of course I keep it to an absolute minimum.
I am happy to continue with Carc as I was blown away by his reaction to the first dose. Will give it to him tonight according to instructions and report back in a few days. Thanks!
