This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Please give him three doses of Phosphorus 200 as follows and see how that affects in next 15 days (only 3 doses in 15 days).
day 1 morning
1st dose
day 1 evening
2nd dose
day 2 morning
3rd dose
One dose means
If the medicine is in pills form 2 pills. Don't touch pills with hand. Use cap of bottle to take pills.
If the medicine is in liquid dilution form, 1 drop in some 15 ml water. Sip up slowly.
Please follow homeo restrictions like don't eat or drink anything within 20 minutes before or after taking medicine.

Thank you doctor,I have ordered the medicine and it should arrive shortly however there are few changes in his symptoms now! Latest update from the hospital is that his para thyroid levels were high due to throat infection and have come back to normal now.He has really bad eczema and a bit of cradle cap.His appetite is very low and refuses all the food offered to him.He suffers from silent reflux so some of the milk consumed enters his lungs causing recurrent chest infections.He keeps scratching his cheeks,ears and rubs his eyes when wanting to sleep or when has eaten anything that disagrees.Do you still think that phosphorus will be the remedy for him?

Also doctor because he has been exposed to general anaesthesia,four courses of antibiotics,ct scan radiation and multiple anti reflux medications,it might be worth considering treatment for leaky gut syndrome? He has very poor digestion and multiple food allergies.

Please go ahead with Phosphorus.

Dear doctor Kadwa,
I have ordered tuberculinum 1m and thuja 200c.I already have rest of the medicines.He has had tuberculinum 200c in the past when his irritability reduced remarkably for a day but poor appetite remained as is.He slept for two hours the night following the day he took the dose.
He was born with lycopodium constitution and in the past his appetite has improved with every dose but irritability remains the same.With Calcarea Carb 200c his head control became better but appetite,irritability and poor sleep remained a problem.He sleeps from 9-4pm without any

Please write back once you get these remedies. We have to wait for at least 5 days to give the next remedy. Phosphorus should get it's 15 days.
♡ kadwa last decade
I have recieved a notification that remedies will be delivered within next 24 hours.I understand what you are saying about Phosphorus but his condition is really worsening day by day.Every night he goes absolutely crazy and inconsolable! If I hold him then he kicks,arches and screams.I have to somehow persevere and rock him for ages to put him to sleep just to bottle feed him a bit in his sleep.After sucking some amount he wakes up again!He keeps striking his head from one side to another on the pillow before sleeping whenever he does.Also ever since I have given him phosphorus,he has started giving me very blank expressions-like long blank stares!

How has been his response to Pulstilla or Belladonna. Please list out the remedies that you have with you.
♡ kadwa last decade
With pulsatilla he started losing weight,became very restless.With belladonna he slept for few hours,Didnt toss around but again lost weight and developed red cheeks.Symptoms re appeared after a day.He has been happiest after taking tub 200c.He was born with mis-shaped head and has always being a very irritable,constantly crying and fussy baby.He used to be cold and over wrapped when born all the time but eventually became warm blooded.He scratches his face at night to the extent that it bleedes.He develops fever in the evening as well.He is 6 months old now and still has a floppy neck,unable to grab things and unable to burp! He hates taking a bath too.He has been admitted to hospital several times and has being fed by tube because of poor ap

Appetite and fussiness.He won't take the bottle so I have to rock him to sleep to feed him but putting him to sleep is so difficult as he kicks,arches and cries even more!he gets hungry after every 3 hrs but refuses to have milk until in sleep! He is still colicky and has a very sticky saliva.His urine smells very strong and his stools are always loose.He doesn't sleep whole night and keeps crying most of the time.He likes to watch songs on tv and also likes wind blown on his face.When I press his legs and thighs he enjoys it a lot!

How many times he has been given Tub 200 during last six months?
♡ kadwa last decade
He only had it once.He also benefits a lot with a combination of calcarea phos+ natrum phos+kali phos(tissue salts).These tissue salts make him a bit happier and promote weight gain and development.His hyperactivity at night with fast breathing looks very abnormal.His constant kicking makes it very difficult for me to change his nappy!I also have to mention that chamomilla had good effect on him when he was 2 months old but then it stopped working.Nux vomica made him more settled after his general anaesthesia dose and other antibiotics although he only had 2 doses in 30c so far.

If it has been more than a month of his dose of Tub 200, you should give him a dose of Tub 1M and see how that affects in a month.
