Hormone problems and help to get off western medicine

I am a 59 year old female. I had never heard of homeopathy until my daughter shared her recent journey of healing with it for severe mental illness the past few weeks. I am interested in trying it as her success with this medicine has been a true miracle. She is also studying homeopathy and has given me a few pointers but asked that I speak to a professional to write an order for me. I have many hormone related issues. She thought Sepia might be helpful for me to withdraw from my prescription western hormone therapy (estradiol and progesterone). I am also taking Effexor XR for depression and would like to wean off of it and start a natural homeopathic treatment. My daughter ordered avena sativa mother tincture for me and it should be arriving within the next week or two. I stopped the estradiol and progesterone a couple of weeks ago. I started Sepia 200 every other day at that time. I am experiencing severe hot flashes, I am extremely irritable, and I struggle with insomnia.
I had several nodules growing on my thyroid and my endocrinologist advised that I have it removed so I had a total thyroidectomy about 8 years ago. So I take Levothyroxine 112mcg on Saturday and Sunday and 100 mcg on weekdays.
I am 5’8” and weigh at least 200lbs. I need to lose weight but have an impossible time with it.
I have high cholesterol and take Crestor. My daughter says it is a very harmful medication.
I used to take omeprazole but stopped. I still have acid reflux. Are there any options to help me get well and off of some of these medications?
I have sleep apnea and use a cpap

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Depression does not convey the totality of symptoms
What is needed is how do you feel about yourself strong likes dislikes how do you react to situations, people, their comments action do you lep thinking about past particularly unpleasant hings what makes you angry I m sure you got it what irritates you anything that comes to your mind just like a story
Thyroid
You need to keep taking those medicines as they are needed by the system
Insomnia
Describe whether u are unable to fall asleep or you have disturbed sleep and wake up a number of times dreams type recurring describe if you dream
Acid reflux is manageable
High cholesterol
the best way is to start physical activity and diet control which will help you in all your symptoms
No sugar no refined flour no bakery products no processed food replacer these with whole grain flour home cooked food milk and fruits and a regular exercise is must

Why do you use CPAP
What did the doctor say when he told you to start using it and explain what happens if you do not use it
 
Kaps 2 years ago
I finished my course of nux comics and thuja.
Last night I started aurum metallicum.
I am reducing my antidepressant. I am having some very distressing symptoms and wonder if there is something else I should be taking:
1. Hot flashes/sweating 2. Not sleeping well at night. 3.irritable
I am about ready to get back on my hormones if I can’t get some relief .

Meds:Levothyroxine 112/100 mcg odd/even days
Crestor 20mg
Zetia 10mg
Effexor 75mg (weaning off)
Benedryl sometimes to help sleep
Off of progesterone and estradiol
upper body-most of the sweating. It is hot and humid here. So that doesn’t help. A lot during the day. No smell. Hot flashes day/night.
I use cpap for sleep apnea. If I don’t I would feel tired through the whole day. Irritable. It probably takes 15 minutes to fall asleep if I were to take Benadryl. I’m a light sleeper. I get up at least 1x to go to restroom. Sometimes I feel I don’t sleep good.
I think the antidepressant and hormone meds help me sleep better.
I do think I let what others say/do bother me. Worry/ obsess about things.

I’ve been taking sepia daily or every other day. Do I need to continue?
I have tonight left to take aurum.
 
Lily1 2 years ago
You are taking allopathic medicines for
Thyroid
Cholesterol
Depression
This antidepressant causes sweating
CPAP
you mean to say that you can fall asleep without the CPAP but you will wake up tired
You do not have obstruction to your breathing while sleeping without CPAP

Let me know when are you finishing the Aurum doses
 
Kaps 2 years ago
I told yesterday only to start Sepia after finishing Aurum
There seems to be a confusion
For how many days have you taken Sepia and what potency?
Kindly clarify
 
Kaps 2 years ago
I do need my cpap. If I didn’t use it I would wake up tired. Tonight is my last dose of aurum. My daughter is the one that was giving you updates at first for me. I’m on my second bottle of sepia. I was taking it daily. Now every other day. I will stop taking it.

Last dose aurum last night. Had some hot flashes/sweating today. Little irritable. Didn’t rest well last night. Should I use sepia or discontinue? Is there anything else I need to try?
 
Lily1 2 years ago
These are the side effects which you have but are not aware due to antihistamines and anti depressants
The symptoms shud subside now for next couple of days
Give a gap of 48 hours
If you get too bad
Take one dose of Nux Vomica 200 04 pills
Or
Sepia 200 04 pills
Post what made you take the remedy? Did those symptoms subside after taking the remedy ?
