Interesting case- Update

Just to say Mum has just phoned and said that for the last week the child has slept from 7 pm to 7 a.m. and they can't believe it. Sometimes she wakes at 4 a.m. but she goes straight back to sleep. Interestingly Mum said that last week the child refused all veg and all she wanted to do was eat fruit!!! She is back on her normal diet now.
The question now is when I see her do I give her a dose of MMR to counteract any adverse things that may be harbouring in her body after the convulsions she had when she had her vaccinations or just leave it as the child doesn't appear to have suffered chronically on the outside and mum has no intention of letting her have any more!! Maybe the constitutional remedy will sort anything out that has been harbouring.

Hi Rochelle,
Just skipping through some of the posts so have obviously missed the
beginning of this thread. If I have understood correctly, you gave a
dose of potentised MMR to deal with effects of a vaccine and have
followed it with constitutional treatment???? Please overlook if I have
misunderstood.
I see a significant number of cases resulting from vaccine or suspected
vaccine damage. My experience is that "like treats like" is by far and
away the best method of treatment. I offer "anti-vaccine" treatment of
potentised vaccines in ascending potencies, similar to Tinus Smits
recommendations and will get improvements, especially where there is a
clear link to a vaccine/s but still get a deeper and broader response
from basic homeopathic prescribing.
One example - 7 year old child with autism- seizures following
vaccination at 6 weeks - seemed to recover uneventfully and go on to
normal development - after MMR vaccine at 18 months went into regressive
autism - at time of seeing child he had a clear range of Belladonna
symptoms including sudden rages, violence and constant (and I mean
constant - that poor mother) loud grunting - because of link to MMR
vaccine started treatment in ascending potencies (30,200,M,10M - a
different potency a day over 4 days) - followed by a 3 day aggravation
in which grunting and behavioural problems worsened - followed by 10%
amelioration in grunting symptoms and ? improvement in behaviour - next
prescribed Bell with a 90% improvement in grunting and behavioural
problems over a 3 week period - treatment continues.
This example is generally what I am seeing across the board - that
improvement by potentised vaccine is generally not as good as
improvement from the indicated remedy. It also seems that vaccine
related improvement is more likely to be symptom specific - for example,
have several cases where loss of speech following MMR has been rapidly
restored, even many months after the event, by giving the MMR in potency
but it does not seem to touch other aspects of the case - the similia
prescription will produce a broader response over many symptoms (as
should be expected).
Whether giving the potentised vaccine helps to correct any residual
damage that may surface at a later stage, I am not sure. My approach
these days may or may not include treatment by the potentised vaccine,
depending on how clear the link is.
Hope this gives more info.
Fran.

Dear Fran ,
Thanks for your first hand experience.
Just skipping through some of the posts so have obviously missed the
No I haven't given her anything but 3 doses of Calc which I perceived as her
constitutional Remedy. She had convulsions when she had her MMR at 13
months with no perceivable lasting effects and mum does not intend that she
has any more vaccinations. My question on whether to give her MMR on potency
was with reference to that.

Rochelle

So calc was apparently her answer? Great!
As to the MMR--yikes, if it ain't broke (anymore), don't mess with
it!!!!
I'd say keep it in mind for an "if needed" in the future, but ride this
happy wave while you can! (I think that would be much in line with the
principle of "minimum dose"!)
