Hi Russell,
just another story re diet and health:
A veterinary friend of mine treated a cat with multiple oral ulcers
(eosinophilic granuloma -like) homoeopathically, with nearly no effect.
Then she changed the diet for the cat: milk was forbidden.
Without any further treatment - and without the milk - the cat soon was
cured.
Milk - an obstacle to cure in this case.
There are a lot of dogs and cats with sensitivities to certain food (not
really allergies).
Best,
Gaby

Re: advice needed.......
Hello Heide,
I was compelled to respond to your e-mail because I thought my experiences
with a similar case might help you with your son's healing.
It turns out that I'm using the anacardium remedy to aid a 5 year old girl
who came to me for chronic yeast infections as well as chronic cystitis.
When I took the case I was not looking for a remedy that just singled out
her yeast infection or cystitis. I was looking for a remedy that addressed
the totality of the disease image, with more emphasis on her Mental
emotional, peculiar and general symptoms; the yeast infection and cystitis
having less value because they are particular symptoms. Hahanemann writes (
Para 210): "In all cases of disease to be cured, the patient's emotional
state should be noted as one of the most preeminant symptoms, along with the
symptom complex, if one wants to record the true image of the disease in
order to be able to successfully cure it homeopathically".
This child was given a 200c of Anacardium (March 21, 2001); (1/3 portion of
a #40 pill was put into 6oz of water succused 10 times and she was given 1/2
teaspoon as a dose).
The initial results came on the mental emotional level and were quite
dramatic. She was much calmer, less subject to the previous uncontrollable
rages.
This was an indication that the remedy has penetrated deeply to the root of
the disease. Hahnemann writes "When there is an ever-so-slight beginning of
improvement, the patient will demonstrate a greater degree of comfort,
increasing composure, freedom of spirit, increased courage - a kind of
returning naturalness. When there is an ever-so slight beginning of
aggravation, the patient will demonstrate the opposite of this exhibiting a
more self-conscious, more helpless state of emotional mind, of the spirit,
of the whole behaviour and of all attitudes, positions and performances - a
state that draws more pity to itself".
Along with this change in state was an increased tolerance for fruits and
juices that would normally spiral her into the yeast infections and
incontinence and aggravate her moods enormously.
No more remedy was given her until six weeks later as we watched her
progress through some old symptoms and waited until the dose had supported
her as much as it could.
When we saw a beginning return of fragility on the Mental emotional level
and some yeast symptoms and incontinence arising again, we gave her another
dose. After 3 weeks (May 13) it was clear that there was some more progress
on the physical level but that the 200c did no longer support her M/E
symptoms.
So 3 weeks (June 20) after the 2nd dose, she recieved the 1M prepared in the
same manner and the same 1/2 teaspoon dose. This began to do more work
addressing the Mental emotional state which had become more dominant in the
symptom picture.
To date, she is now able to tolerate fruits (bananas which she loves but
made her go "ballistic" in the past, according to mom) and juices. She is
much calmer and can be reasoned with. She does not spiral into the
uncontrollable tantrums. Her incontinence and yeast symptoms have been
alleviated and only arise (as well as a more fragile M/E state) when she
needs another dose of the remedy.
So in answer to your question. Yes it is imperative to stick to what is
working. Healing is quite subtle and can't be hurried.
Patience, diligent observation of the symptoms that signal the leftover
disease state, knowlege of the progression of cure (Herrings law), are all
integral to the process. It is simply not enough to find the right remedy!
Finding the right remedy and good case management are the only way to
realize the goal of wellness through homeopathy.
Another quote from Hahnemann (Para 193) "By means of this medicine, taken
only internally, the general disease state of the body is lifted
simultaneously with the local malady (often with the first dose, if the
malady has arisen only recently), The general disease state and local
suffering depended simply and solely on a disease of the rest of the body
and was only to be regarded as an inseparable part of the whole, as on one
of the biggest and most striking symptoms of the total disease."
There are some exceptions that he states further in paragraph 194 about
certain acute topical maladies (inflammations of single parts, erysipelas
etc.) , that when they don't yeild in the way described above, are a result
of "a flare-up of Psora which has hitherto remained dormant in the interior
an which is on the verge of developing itself into an overt chronic disease.
Such a case is not rare.)
Hope this helps,
Namaste

Re: advice needed.......
dear heide,
awhile ago i had a nutritionist use her biofeedback machine to help remove some parasites and balance
out my system. it seemed to work well and the benefits have lasted almost a year now.
as to the remedies given your son, i cant speak to them. it doesnt sound like classical homeopathy with
the combination remedies and whatever else there is in them. i am not familiar with the products you mention. it seems like your practitioner doesnt see homeopathy as a modality for something like candida, altho this is not necessarily so. perhaps this person doesnt want to mess with the anac which is helping the tics, etc.
