Just some thoughts:
Remedies in 200C potency that worked for some time and then stopped working,
could be used, according to Robin Murphy, in 6C potency or LM/1 potency with
extremely good results.
Using large daily dose of 1000mcg Vit B12 alone has not been found useful in
at least one AIDS study and in some other weight loss regimes, and could
even cause harm by upsetting the fine mineral balance of each individual. (
David L Watts)
Natrium muriaticum has worked in the past for this case, it has ingrown toe
nail and sadness, brain-fag, intellectual fatigue etc and 6C or LM potency
approach may pay dividends.
Hypericum 30C for the acute (nerve damage) could possibly be the
intercurrent.

"After 1 dose of Aur next day they were neat and tidy and shaved etc but aur
hasn't helped again.= 2 doses of aur given and helped [lack of interest in
self and eating bread] but 3rd one didn't help all the rest of this
situation with rages etc./hiding self from others."
"Pain Big toes [cannot touch at all] - used to have ingrown toenails which
were operated on unsuccessfully and nailbed burnt with acid to prevent
regrowth inside side of toe which was felt when anaesthetic didn't take. Now
has terrible pain in toes but Drs can't find any infection or ingrown nail
etc. Has been told is phantom pain. Walks on heels to avoid toes touching
the ground and can't have shoes touch toes. [Aur hasn't helped this]"
"Used to be very affectionate. And has spurts of this
Puls helped when young at times"

bashed at school and also when majorly stressed after living with father and

come into his house."

COMMENTS OF ROSEMARY
"Out of interest which rep are you using Shannon - re the nails. Synthesis
and Murphy do not have all the remedies listed for ingrowing and only one
for amputation.The essence of that sequence is an ongoing reaction to a past
injury --almost a repetition compulsion, in a way, although it's not
necessarily only mental/ emotional. The cutaneous nerves were injured and
the nerve pathway hasn't shut down.
I also wonder, as he's vegetarian, if he might not be deficient in B12. A
deficiency of that can produce some pretty horribly painful neuropathies in
the foot, starting with the toes!! You could find out easily enough by
having him dissolve a 1000mcg lozenge of B12 sublingually daily for 2-4
weeks. If there's any B12 deficiency involved in the foot pain, he'll notice
a difference within that time period. He can taper off to 1 tablet a week
once he's done the experiment, and that amount would keep him "topped up"
with the B12 once any deficiency has been eliminated."

ROBIN MURPHY'S COMMENTARY ON ORGANON OF MEDICINE 6TH EDITION, B Jain 2004,

LM/2 in the second cup cured them instead of jumping from 6c to 12c, or 200c
to 1M. Hahneman's method is more sophisticated and effective.
A portion of my income is fixing those cases where people took high
potencies; and 70% of those cases that I get have seen Kentian prescribers,
I give the same remedy in a lower potency or water potency or LM, and I get
all the praise and credit. I just listen to their story - "Oh, I took Sepia
10 M and I got a horrible aggravation, and I was great for six months .... "
It's the same story. I give them Sepia 6c in water and there's a dramatic
cure. They say, "Wow, he's such a great prescriber!" I didn't do anything.
Some people need a 6c and a 12c, and then they get better. So all those
cases you get where they had the right remedy, just go back and give the
same thing in water or an LM and you'll see dramatic results, and that is
the proof of the system. We can't prove it from other cases, but within that
same case we can prove it - that LM/l cured and 10M failed. What can we say?
