The ABC Homeopathy Forum
New on ABC Forum
Dear all,For past three years I'm suffering from herniated disc (L5/S1), and have been subject to terrible pain in my left leg. Tried lots of different treatments, including homeopathy, but unfortunately, it doesn't work well for me.
For three years I'm faced on daily basis with numbness, cramps and pains throughout the length of the legs, feet, three outer fingers as well as in the left gluteus.
In the meantime, I was diagnosed cataracts in both eyes( left eye more touched. I am not a supporter of any kind of surgery for both of my problems, nor do I think that the official medicine I can help me. I'm doing lots of excersise to reinforce my back muscles, but I+m very concearned about my physical and mental state. Could you please advice me, which homeopathic remedy will be good for me. Sincerely yours. Marra

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Herniated disc may not cure but the pain might be manageable through homeopathy. Similarly, cataracts if too advanced may not reverse but can be halted successfully.
I can try to find a suitable remedy for you if you can answer the below questions. Before doing that, Id suggest to check my profile by clicking my username to know something about me first.
IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THIS FIRST BEFORE ANSWERING QUESTIONS:
Homeopathy works only if you give truthful answers, no matter how awkward or intimate. If you dont want to do that, its better you stop here and dont proceed.
Please reply to all that is being asked and give details.
Short answers such as Yes/No/Normal are not helpful.
I want answers which explain the What, When, Where, Why, Better by & Worse by.
Example: I have a sore throat (it explains the what), since 3 days (it explains when), on the left side of my throat (explains where), due to eating sour food (explains why), the pain is better when I drink warm tea (explains Better by), the pain is worse when I swallow food (explains worse by)

Hi Marra,
Do you have Shiatsu massage in your area?
I mean someone who has been trained in this or trained in
acupressure massage. Shiatsu massage is done with clothes on,
working the spine, increasing the blood flow and it is the only
thing that has brought relief to several relatives of mine who
have the same problem as you do-very effective.
Best,
Simone717

Can you explain the type of pain e.g. throbbing, shooting, dull etc.
Explain the cough at night, what makes it better & worse.
Q-21: What fears occupy your mind
Q-42: Explain permanently running nose

pain is dull, shooting...like a low current that runs through entire length of the leg and ends in the foot like a glowing.
The cough comes from wind pipe, I think, starting like itching and push me to cough. Better is when I'm standing, and worse if I'm staying in bed.
Q-21: Fears of illness, death,all bad scenarios possible.
Q-42: My right nostril is non stop running. Sometimes I'm not aware of that at all, do not feel it.

Your remedy is: Lachesis 200c.
HOW TO TAKE THE REMEDY:
Please take one dose. Just one dose. Not daily.
Report back in 5 days with changes observed.
TIME OF DOSE:
At night before sleeping.
Dont take any more dose or any other remedy unless I tell you.
PILLS/PELLETS:
If your remedy is in the form of pills:
One dose is one pill.
Dissolve the pill in your mouth.
LIQUID REMEDY:
If your remedy is in liquid form:
Put one drop of the remedy in half glass of water, stir and take one tea spoon from it.
Thats one dose.
PRECAUTIONS:
Dont take any other homeopathic remedy during this treatment.
Give a break of at least 10 minutes before eating/drinking anything before or after taking the remedy.
During the course of treatment, dont eat anything which you have never had all your life.
HOMEOPATHIC AGGRAVATION
Sometimes the symptoms for which treatment is being done can worsen after taking the homeopathic remedy. This is homeopathic aggravation and a good sign. It usually dies down within 24-48 hrs. During this time you can use any non-medicinal means to keep yourself comfortable. If the aggravation seems excessive, you can use any & all means necessary (including taking allopathic medicines) to keep yourself comfortable. Keep your homeopath fully updated if this happens.
HOW TO GIVE FEEDBACK:
A good example of how to report your progress is by giving %age improvement for all your health problems e.g.
Headache: 30% better
Low energy level: 50% better
Anxiety: 40% better
Sadness: No change
Depression: Worse
And so on list all your complaints.
GENERAL INFO ABOUT HOMEOPATHIC PRESCRIBING:
If someone is giving several remedies, without waiting to see the effect of one remedy, then it is totally against the core principles of homeopathy. Such an approach is unlikely to give permanent cure, rather it may distort actual symptoms making subsequent cure even more difficult.

Dear 'Fitness', thank you very much.

Hello 'Fitness',
Somehow your message went to my 'Spam', and I find it out today!!
Thanx for asking! Yes I took dose at time. No big improvement, unfortunately. Never mind, I'm use to this pain now :)
I have another question for you, or somebody else.
I have a dog that is subject to Staphyloccous Aureus infection on right paw. She has been operated, but no improvement so far. She is in pain and I'm very much concerned about further development of this infection. How I can help her to get rid of this bacteria?
MY eldest son also has Staph. Aureus in nostrils. In some French homeopathy books I found info. that these infections can be cured by STAPHYLOCOCCINUM? Is that correct? Thank you in advance
