Attn: Evocationer
Hello,I need help for my nursing pain which I am suffering from since nine months after my child has born. It has improved 90% but 10% is left. I have filled the form of Quessionere which is pasted below.
Please suggest a remedy and dose for it in liquid dilutions and pellets. should I take sulfur again as it improved my condition?
I took allopathic medicine which didnt make much difference
Did natural remedies ie garlic, vinegar, yoghurt but no cure
Did homeopathic remedy. Took graphites 30 c 1 drop twice a day for 2 weeks (didnt work). Then left it and after 2 days started graphites 1m one drop once a week for 4 weeks (didnt work). Then left and after a week started Sulphur 30c one drop once a day everyday for 6 days. Felt better for 2-3 days but after 3 days swelling on top of my breast started which was very painful and leuccoria started in white and watery color. So I had to leave that too. I also took candida albicans 15 pellets everyday for 7 days but it made no difference. i started sulphur 30 again 2 weeks ago 1 drop for 3 days. my pain and itching improved in 15 days about 90%
