24th April 2002

ESR now down to 6 from 62 which shows that there is no problem now with her
immune system. She is now worrying about since 6 is the bottom end of normal
what happens if she goes below this???

She has been taking Milk Thistle and puts this down as the reason that her
possible dodgy liver is fine now.

Ear is better since the Nat Mur. I noted that she seemed reluctant to put it
down to this. She is taking Garlic pills and thinks this has made a
difference to the catarrh.

She is still having the occasional sneezing effect but basically she has not
had her monthly infection (a cold) since I saw her last..

Instead of being pleased that she seems a bit better she is now going on
about maybe having had Glandular fever and asking me questions on this. In
fact she didn't shut up (for an hour) most of it being about how resentful
she feels She was going on about how people think she isn't telling the
truth when she moans about her complaints as she gets on with her life
anyway. "I don't like criticism of people telling me this. I feel mardy
about it. I don't feel I am a good advert for the alternative health that I
do and people are criticising me for it. I am very resentful about it."

Shoulder pain - this is still there. It is possible it is worse and I
noticed that it is in the remedy. She has been waking at 4 -4.30am with her
left fingers numb. There is an old injury to the neck. Her doctor doesn't
believe it is a frozen shoulder which is what the chiropractor thinks it is
and according to her he has made it worse by cracking her neck so she is not
going back to him. She is resentful that the doctor won't send her for free
NHS physiotherapy treatment and she has to pay out for the chiropractor and
the osteopath that I am trying to get her to seen and also me! She reckons
that she is getting to the limit of what HSA (a cheap medical insurance
scheme) will pay out

Analysis

Firstly I think that the Nat Mur has done something with the ears - which
was what her main moan was about originally- and her general health other
than the shoulder problem. All she did was moan continually talking very
quickly and hardly taking a breath and I was getting very irritated with her
which I don't usually. I have suggested she sees an osteopath but basically
she is saying all this is costing her too much and the NHS should be paying
for physio and aren't. I suggested that I wanted to see how the remedy
carries on working. Is this really the end of her constant infections? So
basically we left it that she would phone for another appointment if she
wanted one however she would like me to give her something in case the
infections came back which wasn't willing to at the moment. It was as if she
wanted an insurance policy. She was taking about me making her up a herbal
mixture for her post nasal catarrh - which was the first I heard of this.

Questions - Why does she keep harping on about Epstein -Barr this week now
she has been told it isn't Guillain.. Does she need to put a name to
everything? Why won't she let go of the fact that she doesn't have an
autoimmune problem now. On looking back in my motes I see that the numbness
in the hands on waking at night did go after the Causticum. How come it has
returned?

She used to be so fit so why is she not allowing herself to be fit now? She
is other than the shoulder which is debilitating as she can't raise her arms
very high but she can carry things.

I suspect that she will be back to me eventually, maybe after she has been
to the osteopath. I do bump into her at the gym when I find time to do the
Pilates class.

Meanwhile I have given her no prescription.

Did EFT on the set up, "Although I had this autoimmune problem, it's gone
now."

Dear Rochelle, this is the trouble with Nat Mur. They do get so stuck and
hang on, retain, physically as well as mentally/emotionally - this is why
they get oedema, water retention and such like - retention is the theme. She
needs an 'illness' to hang on to, she is stuck and she needs attention. But
of course if Nat Mur is her remedy then this should dissipate in time.

This is unlike the arsenicum need for attention - they truly believe they
are ill (usually are!) and their despair centres around their diseases. I
had a case recently with an elderly man who, before he had even taken his
coat off and had hardly sat down he started and didn't stop for over 45
minutes telling me his despair about all his multiple illness. I never said
a word, I just sat there and listened knowing he would tell me what his
remedy was in time. He was taking no less than 18 allopathic drugs!

I think your case also brings up something else - how we relate to
'difficult' clients. We have every right to choose not to treat people but
if we do choose to treat our objectivity has to remain intact however much
they may irritate us, because if the contract breaks down we are no longer
able to 'see' clearly. It is very important that we stay aloof, slightly
distant without being disinterested. The client I mentioned earlier was also
extremely racist and prejudiced (part of his disease???) and it was
imperative for me to stay at arms length.

I hope your client stays with you at least so you can see her healed.

Thanks for sharing the case. Best wishes, Joy Lucas

Don;t worry Joy I only wrote in my notes how irritated I felt with her as I
was taught to observe these type of things as a clue to the remedy. I trust
she did not observe it!! I doubt it as she was too full of herself!!

Regards,
Rochelle
