The ABC Homeopathy Forum

For Dhundhun's attention

I am Female. 46 years old. I have been on homeopathy for over 10 years which has helped to manage lupus. the symptoms are mainly mouth ulcers, swelling feet, swelling face, falling hair and dandruff, pins and needles in my arms and legs, bad breath, constipation and hormonal imbalances. I have been on homeopathy for over 10 years and have been successful in managing the symptoms. But recently my doctor gave me 50 m dose of pulsatilla to which I responded really well. I think I was healing, but I repeated the dose while it was still working. Following this my eyes and face began to look really ill. This was over a year ago. I suspected it was due to repeating the 50m dose of pulsatilla too soon, because I looked the same as I look now when I first took the 50m before the healing reaction began. Then I was a given a descending dose of pulsatilla, and the new symptoms reversed for a short while but has returned. I continue to look ill. My eyes look really ill. My hair has become dry and coarse. These symptoms tend to aggravate during my periods. The way I am looking is also making me extremely depressed and weepy. I was wondering whether there is another homeopathic remedy I could take? My lupus is at the moment under control through allopathic medicine.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
I am a Naturopath and I can help.

Please advice
 
mahindaj last decade
What was the descending dose? One dose ?
or were you given different descending doses?

How long ago was this?

It seems that pulsatilla works for you, the dose and frequency needs
to be fine tuned.

its was 200c, 30c and 6c. I have read that cyclamen is very similar to pulsatilla. Will taking cyclamen help my situation.
 
mahindaj last decade
Hi- When was the last time you took 6c?

You don't necessarily have to rule out pulsatilla again. It was working,
you took too much, you antidoted it and then it seems you
antidoted it enough so that it was working again. Now, it seems
to me that you could use it again in a higher dose.

However, I would like you to use the edit button on your post- lower
right and change your headline.

Ask for Dhundhun on here to advise on this.

i changed the title - saying for Dhundhun's attention. Is that sufficient?
 
mahindaj last decade
Silicea is chronic to Pulsatilla. Pulsatilla has already been used for very long duration, and it seems that it is not so effective now.

So, try using Silicea 200 one dose a week for three weeks.
 
dhundhun last decade
Thank you very much. Will try and report back. Could you just explain what you mean by chronic?
 
mahindaj last decade
Chronic means if Pulsatilla is required for prolong use, better to give Silicea.
 
dhundhun last decade
Just one more clarification. As i wrote, i was inquiring about a remedy for new symptoms that i got after taking 50m dose of pulsatilla. I believe i repeated the 50m too soon, while i was on the way to longer term healing for lupus symptoms. You have recommended silicea for the new symptoms, but i wonder whether it will also work for my old lupus symptoms which i am currently managing with allopathic medicine. And if the silicea addresses the new symptoms, could i continue to take it for old symptoms. As i told pulsatilla really worked for me, and i really regret that it does not work anymore. At least the 50m dose.
 
mahindaj last decade
Even if symptoms look similar, even if remedy helped earlier, remedies cease to work. That's the place, concept of chronic diseases starts - when apparent, visible similium stops working.
 
dhundhun last decade
Dear Dhundhun,
in response to my post below, you recommended silicea 200c one dose a week. I took first dose on 25th April. There was improvement in symptoms about 75% - after two days but effects did not last and was back to old symptoms before the week was over. I repeated second dose, and again slight improvement but it is not lasting. Should i still repeat the third dose this thursday?

Thanks in advance for you response

You have two options:

#1. Pulsatilla is compatible with Silicea. You can use Pulsatila to see, whether Silicea improved its effect.

#2. Need to take different potencies of Silicea.

Take Sil 6x (three times a day), one or two weeks to see, whether it can help. If it does not help take Sil 1M one dose.

Right now Sil 200 my not help, its effect is reducing.

===
I'd recommend #1 first
 
dhundhun last decade
dhundhun,

If she does option 1, what potency of Pulsatilla
should she try?
 
simone717 last decade
She was taking Pulsatilla 50M, so need to use the same.

Don't repeat Pulsatilla 50M in less than six weeks. If Pulsatilla is required in between, use Pulastilla 6 or 30 two three times a day.
 
dhundhun last decade
Thank you. I just want to give a bit more detail about my history with pulsatilla. As I said, i was doing really well on my first dose of 50m pulsatilla when it was repeated. I really undermined what might have been a healing process and also gave me a set of new symptoms which i never had which would not go away even after the effect of the second dose had worn off. I waited at least four months thinking the new symptoms would slowly wear off but it didnt. Then my doctor repeated the 50m pulsatilla. There was improvement in the new symptoms only temporarily. I took at least three more doses of pulsatilla, but could not shake off the new symptoms. This is when i was told I could try to antedote. I took a descending dose of pulsatilla 200c, 30c and 12c and did successfully antedote (except they returned just during my periods). However as lupus symptoms were still there, i again took 50m pulsatilla for the lupus symptoms thinking i had successfully antedoted. Then the new symptoms i had shaken returned. I again took a descending dose and then although it took longer, i was able to antedote it. But maybe about three or four weeks after, the symptoms returned - i dont know why perhaps something i ate. I again took a descending dose of pulsatilla - this time 200c, 30c and 6c but it had no effect. so i am wondering whether I would respond to pulsatilla again and whether its better to try a different dose of silicea. I am sorry this is really long winded, but would be grateful for your advice.
Thanks

Antidote Pulsatilla with Chamomilla 30, two dose daily for three days. This antidotes excess of Pulsitalla.

dhundhun last decade
Do you mean 30c? and is it morning and evening?
Thanks
 
mahindaj last decade
Yes 30C. Homeopathic remedies without suffix is C or CK or K.

30, 30C, 30CK, 30K are same.

I started the chamomilia on Sunday and took the fifth dose yesterday morning. Initially thought i was responding well, but since yesterday my left eye has been red and hurting. My left eye got red after the first dose of silicea 200 as well but subsided after a day. I guess i should just wait and see.
 
mahindaj last decade
Yes. Please wait for couple of days and update me.
 
dhundhun last decade
I am writing to report progress. So I took 5th dose of chamomilia on tuesday morning and didnt take the 6th dose that night because my left eye was red and hurting. By Friday my red and hurting left eye became a full blown migraine headache with fever. COuld not raise my head on Friday and also Saturday and only got better last evening. Feeling a bit fragile now but fever and headache gone. The symptoms i complained of - have improved by about 75% but not gone completely. The fever and headache might have been a healing reaction but i would have expected all the symptoms to clear. Should i continue the chamomilia? I live in Sri Lanka, where its really difficult to find a good homeopath. Should i be seeing somebody in person? I am going to be in Delhi for a couple of days. I am just wondering whether you could recommend somebody who could see me in person? If not am happy to continue through this forum if its not a huge burden. I am happy to make donation for your assistance.
 
mahindaj last decade
Stop Chamomilla.

Take Spigelia Ant - 30 three times a day for 2-3 days.
