The ABC Homeopathy Forum

left side of body numb

Greetings. 7 yrs ago I was diagnosed with Bells Palsy and treated homeopathically as well as vitmins, osteopathcy, and cranial sacral therapy. The numbness diminished slowly over three weeks. At the time I had been under a great deal of stress. I was feeling like I had a sinus infection just on one side of my head for several days before the paralysis occured. The day though it went most acute I was very angry and decided to take a very hot bath with seaweed in it. It was a whirlpool and sat in the bath festering in my anger. My bloodpressure must have went very high and after my 20 minute bath my tongue was numb on the left side only. By morning I had paralysis on the left side of my face. At the time I was only 29 but I wondered if I had had a small stroke? I also wondered about MS, as I have an uncle with that condition.
Now seven years later I am experiencing numbness on the entire left side of my body. Dull pain, mostly just the numbness. My neck and head feel like an incredible amount of pressure is built up ..like brain swelling. I am exhausted, not thinking sharply, feel weak. At first I was thinking it was the BP again. I had been cleansing the week before this happened -candida I thought in colon. I was taking Mag 07 -supplement of magnesium and stabilized oxygen. I took less than directions 2-3 capsules 3X a day for 4 days. Constant loose stools for 5 days. On the 5th day I stopped taking the cleanser and took a birth control pill. On the sixth day I started showing the symptoms of numbness. I thought oh great I have released too many toxins or candida into my blood stream and its attacking my brain causing the swelling. I also acknowledge the bc pill as a big factor.
Sorry so long. Anyway I contacted my homeopath and who is sending me a remedy to detox the bc pills and one for the cranial trama -car accident 20yrs ago. SO MY QUESTION IS about any homeopath's experience treating left side body numbness. Its the whole body head to toe with more pain pressure in neck and left head. I have been researching the net and other people have mentioned thyroid problems, MS, and viruses from food poisoning. Then I recalled I did have food poisoning which immediatly turned into a head and chest cold 3 wks ago and have felt my energy level was very low this month and not thinking clearly. Anyway I am focusing on reducing inflammation of brain-vit C and B12. My remedies will not be here for 3 days for the crainal trauma and estrogen detox for clearing the bc pills. But in the meantime does any of this sound familiar and are there any suggestions? Thank you for reading such a long entry!
