Mr. Mani Jee,

I took the first does of Lycopodium 1M on Nov. 18, 2015 and 2nd on Dec. 1, 2015, and 3rd on Dec. 10,2015. My anxiety is better than before but my hand shaking specially when I bring my hand close to my mouth to drink or eat is still no improvement. Did I do ok or I took too many doses than I should have? Please let me know.

Thanks.
 
bsdhaliwal 8 years ago
Please take a single dose of Lachesis 200 as suggested earlier.

If you repeat Lyco 1m, too often, it might bring bad effects. So you need to be careful in repeating the remedy.
