To Irene,

[Irene de Villiers]

I can give one example if it helps decode the situation:

I woke in middle of the night with a head that felt like it was about to burst, could hardly see or focus with the pain, did not think I could read what was in Radar's text even though it is set to a bit larger than usual.

But I tried, looked up just one rubric, it had a "4" listed to do with head bursting, it was the exact feelinig I had, (I do not usually pay attention to the numbers), Asterias Rubens.
I took a dose and it worked like magic.

Till I ate a piece of ginger. It felt like I had hit a brick wall. Total iinstant antidote. Needed a new dose.
Later I had some Reed's gingerbeer, and again hit the brick wall. (I then experimented and found the ginger antidote consistent.)

Within a day or so the remedy stopped helping but it helped long enough for me to find a proper match, obviously to more than the one severe symptom.

If that emergency happened now I would not get the help from Radar that I got then. For some reason ALL the Aster rubrics have been downgraded to 1 or 2. Takes away the only reason to use numbers, IMO, namely in emergency as here. (A real downgrade of the software IMO.) Emergencies are not when you have the ability or time to mess about with detail repping.

Namaste,
Irene

I had an amusing case as regards dosing many many years ago, involving a rescued pot-bellied pig with such awful arthritis he tried to stand on only two legs when forced to stand at all (so as to eat), and bit anyone who came near unless they had a peanut-butter sandwich for him. So he had a "condiment" of calc carb on his peanut butter sandwich. He was soon ambling around the pen.

I do not think it is common sense though, here, it is remedy match. I say that as I am a great one for eating very highly spiced meals, and I use spices as medicine as well, in capsules I make - and it does no harm to any well matched remedy. For example, I use Yancy's Fancy aged cheddar with Habanero, Halapeno and Cayenne Pepper pieces in it, not to everyone's taste! But if that does not antidote, it suggests to me this is not about common sense or spiciness or strength of flavor - but remedy match.

My first use of homeopathy (which led me to study it), I was told to skip coffee. Who me? I did not, and I still have my leg (which was due for amputation at the time).

Namaste,
Irene
