Has anyone had any experience with using Badiaga in a case where Rhus tox isn't working well? I have a case who is on an LM series of Rhus tox, but every time she takes a dose she experiences an upwelling of emotional discharge (i.e. she cries her eyes out for a day straight). Personally, I think sh...

Any chance for the patient to begin accepting some responsibility for their health should be taken, and diet is one of those areas that I've found needs a little encouragement from the health practitioner to make better choices for themselves. A good approach may be just to pick ONE thing in their d...

List of Symptoms: Comes on mild, low fever throughout. Good appetite, even in...

Apis might also be worth trying, in a higher potency.

It sounds like you are in pretty good shape for your delivery. You shouldn't need anything drastic. If you have a midwife for your delivery, they should be knowledgeable in any homeopathic medicines you may need as your symptoms in labor come up. If you have an OB/GYN in a more hospital-like setting...

Suzan - The nearest schools to you would be the Desert Institute for Homeopathy in Phoenix (www.weteachhomeopathy.com) and the Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine (www.scnm.edu - although not specifically a homeopathic school, they may have clinics that are specific to their homeopathic train...
