The ABC Homeopathy Forum
GERD/IBS/Abdominal Issues
Hey all!So, I had my baby 3 months ago and ever since then, I have been feeling like complete crap. Bouts of Diarrhea, stomach pain, really bad heartburn/indigestion to the point my chest and back are hurting so bad that I think I am dying, and then I had tooth pain and got my tooth pulled, in which I had to take pain pills/antibiotics for awhile. After that, I took Zegerid otc ppi for 14 days and felt great...no pain whatsoever!
Well, after I quit those because the course was done...I started to have bouts of soft stools/diarrhea/pooping constantly, stomach pains, heartburn and indigestion all the time, don't sleep good, pain in upper back between shoulder blades, pain in my ribs/chest, and I have just been feeling like complete crap!
I am now on a calcium/magnesium/zinc/D3 pill and St. Johns Worts. But, still having issues other than my anxiety and anger/depression is better.
I am at a lost of what to do :( no health insurance for a few months, so I need some help!
What can I do??

YOUR REMEDY IS: Nux Vomica 200c.
HOW TO TAKE THE REMEDY:
• Please take one dose right away. Just one dose. Not daily.
• Report back after 48 hrs using the format explained below.
WHAT IS A DOSE:
If remedy is Pills/Pellets:
• One dose is one pill. If the pellets are very small in size like fine sugar grain, then 7-10 pellets.
• Dissolve the pill in your mouth.
If remedy is liquid:
• Put one drop of the remedy in half glass of water, stir and take one tea spoon from it.
• That’s one dose.
FOR CHILDREN:
If the child can't safely suck on the pill/pellets then one dose is made by dissolving one pill of the remedy (or one drop, if you have liquid remedy) in half a glass of cooled, boiled water. Stir it and take one tea spoon from it.
FOR ANIMALS:
One dose is made by dissolving one pill of the remedy (or one drop, if you have liquid remedy) in half a glass of water. Stir it and take one tea spoon from it.
PRECAUTIONS:
• Don’t 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, don’t eat/drink anything which you have never had all your life.
HOW TO GIVE FEEDBACK:
A good example of how to report your progress is by giving %age improvement or worsening for all your health problems e.g.
• Emotions: e.g. Overall feeling better improved 40%
• Energy level: e.g. Feeling of tiredness reduced 70%
• Main health problem: e.g. Nasal discharge reduced 50%
• Other health problems: e.g. Acne increased 60%
• Anything new: Depression: e.g. Loose stool started
• And so on list all your complaints.
PROCESS OF CURE:
• In acute cases (cold, flu, fever etc), if the remedy is right, the first step towards cure is evident within a few hours of taking the remedy i.e. you start feeling better emotionally. All other physical symptoms will improve steadily. If after taking the remedy you start feeling worse emotionally, the remedy is wrong.
• Some people feel sleepy after taking the remedy, if you do feel sleepy, take a nap. This is an excellent sign of the healing process kicking in.
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.
IF I DON’T REPLY:
If you don’t hear back from me within 24 hrs, it is likely that the forum’s email didn’t work. You can send me an email (click my username for details) and give the link of the forum post so I know which post are you referring to.
