This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Providing a list of rubrics is the worst possible way to present your case, if you were hoping to get advice from a homoeopath here.

Translation across from symptoms to rubrics is not a simple job and takes skill. Even more importantly, choosing which symptoms to use is vital to get to the right remedy. You do not just throw every little symptom you have in to the analysis.

As an example, let me show you how this list is not appropriate for finding a remedy.

Symptoms which are too general (not differentiated by peculiarity or modalities/characteristics)

mind; emotions, feelings, attitude, disposition; unhappy; sadness, mental depression:

mouth; teeth; pain;

throat; pain; sore

abdomen; stomach; indigestion

abdomen; stomach; heartburn

Constipation

sleep; sleeplessness, insomnia

generalities; obesity

So those symptoms need to be removed as they lead nowhere.

Secondly, you have repeated symptoms in several places, which unnaturally weights the analysis in favor of particular remedies.

Swollen abdomen + Increase of fat in abdomen + abdomen bloated + abdomen enlarged + stomach distended (this has hugely distorted the analysis by bringing up similar remedies 5 times)

Genitals, female, burning + genitals, female, irritation, itching burning

Sleep waking frequent + Sleep, sleepless, insomnia

Thirdly, some of these symptoms are not really symptoms at all and are healthy functions of the body or are normal reactions to other problems mentioned (and so do not constitute part of the remedy picture).

mind; talking, conversation

Eyes, tears

Abdomen, stomach, burping, belching

Sleep, sleepiness, tiredness, morning (because you have insomnia)


Fourthly, rather than repertorizing each little symptom, they can and should be grouped into general groups based on common features like pains or sensations.

Eye, inflammation + abdomen, inflammation = Inflammation generally

Eye, itching, corner + rectum, itching, like insects + genitals, irritation, itching, burning = itching generally

Burning pain at tip of tongue + stomach, heartburn + Genitals, female, burning = burning generally

Eyes, swelling, corner + swollen abdomen + abdomen enlarged + stomach distended + generals swelling puffy + generals swelling glands = swelling generally

So you would just look up 4 symptoms here not 14 - Inflammation, Itching, Burning, Swelling.

Out of the remaining symptoms, there are a few that are peculiar and should be placed at the top of the anlyasis (given greater weight then the others).

Mind, insecure, anxiety about the future
Face, expression, old looking
Abdomen, as if something were in the
Rectum, itching, like insects crawling on skin in anus

Then next I would weight the following generals:

Stomach, appetite, ravenous, excessive
Glands, swelling, painless
Heaviness, internally

Anything that came up for those 7 symptoms I would take particular notice of. Then I would reorganise all the symptoms on the basis I have given, and add what is left, but they would be of less importance so no remedy needs to cover all the less important symptoms.

You haven't given a proper case yet. Giving rubrics, as I tried to show you, is too prone to mistakes and errors unless you know what you are doing.

I will post my intake form as well. You can choose who you want to take advice from.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR GIVING YOUR CASE


Go through each problem one at a time giving a full description of what happens, what pains and sensations you get, what makes it worse and what makes it better, the history of the complaint including when it started and what was happening around that time.

Write a separate section for each problem. Cover even the smallest problems you have.

If any of your symptoms occur together, or immediately before or after one another this is important to note as well.

Do not give single word or short sentence descriptions. The more information you give the better I will be able to help.

Do not read up on the remedies and discuss them. Do not attempt to use the Remedy Finder program on this site. Try to keep yourself apart from all the information about remedies on the internet. Such research on your part actually makes it harder to find the right remedy for you not easier.

Whenever you describe a sensation or pain, try to help me to imagine having that same pain. For example, what would have to happen to me to recreate that symptom?

Allow yourself to diverge if you wish. If discussing the problem brings up any emotional or mental issues, then discuss them.

Do not edit your report, except for spelling mistakes. It is important that even if you use the wrong word, you write that. You can correct yourself in the next sentence.

If you have not done this by the time you have covered your problems, discuss the problems you have generally had in your life. What have been the big traumas, the big issues for you? Where have you felt unable to change, where do you get stuck repeating the same behaviours?

Also discuss the issues you might have had in childhood. Talk about your family, your upbringing, your parents. What kind of child were you? What did you fear, what did you aspire to, what do you remember the most?

Lastly talk about the way in which you handle or cope with your problems. What are the patterns that reoccur in your life? How do you find yourself managing your problems, even if it is not successful? To what degree do your problems affect you? How do you think everything will work out in the end for you?

There will almost certainly be more questions from me after this to clarify and to explore further.
General health questions:

1. What foods and drinks do you crave? A craving is not just liking something but a very strong desire that you must fulfill very often.

2. What foods and drinks do you hate?

3. What kinds of weather and temperature are you sensitive to?

4. Is there anything else in the environment you seem more affected by than other people?

5. What times of the day do you feel at your best and your worst?

6. What problems do you have with sleep?

7. What kind of dreams do you have? If you have a reoccurring dream or pattern in your dreams, please describe them.

8. What is your physical energy like? Are particular activities difficult for you?

9. What kinds of medical treatment have you had in the past? Have there been any bad reactions to medicines, including vaccines?
