The ABC Homeopathy Forum

Attn: Joe De Livera

My daughter has acid and sometimes silent reflux, and has had it since she was 2 weeks old. She has all the usual symptoms, arching her back, coughing and spluttering, vomiting after every feed, doesnt like to be laid on her back, and constant crying.


She is exclusively breastfed, and 3 weeks ago I cut cows milk and soya out of my diet 3 weeks ago, but this has not really helped her reflux. We have also tried infant gaviscon and have just been prescribed a PPI, however I would like to try using Nat Phosx6 first, as I have heard it can cure the reflux, and I am worried about the health implications of using the PPI. However, I am slightly worried about Nat Phos affecting her sleep as she doesnt sleep much as it is. I also am not sure what dosage I should give her? And if it should be after every single feed or not?

She is now 8 weeks old, nearly 9 weeks, and weighs 12 and a half pounds (5.8kg). Please could you advise if you think it is worth trying Nat Phos, and if so what dosage she should be given?

Many thanks for your help in advance!

Raj,

I see healer 21 is helping you?

What he is trying to do is take your entire case.
You are trying to just stop one issue.
'
I think maybe this will help you understand better-

Homeopathy works because the human body will not tolerate 2 similar
Out of balance states or "disease". In chronic cases, the homeopath tries to match mental, physical , emotional, what makes you better, what makes you worse, food preference, weather preference,
Never well since? Etc.

The remedy is a highly diluted molecular water copy- if a good match
Then the body thinks it is facing a second similar disease.
The body reacts--by raising your life force to clear the remedy and at same time it clears the disease.

The clearing often follows a path-(google herings
Law of cure)

In acute illness (like colds, injury, ) the remedy is matched to the acute symptoms and not the over all big picture.

Nice that you are educating yourself-
You can check out drluc.com( he is retired famous homeo)
He lists a lot of basic info.

Anyway- healer 21 is looking at the overall?
If you wish to switch thank him- do a new post-
Ask for ashkaymohl(dr mohla)

Take it as an alternative opinion.

Infant refluxes respond to chamomilla and if it only helps partially or does not work then Colocynthis. Try them in 30c one by one. If there is aggravation or significant betterment stop the doses.
