two questions

[ForumGal]

Hi all,
Two questions:

1) your suggestions for sciatica left hip, very tired, lots of
flatulence, liver sore, no diarrhea, low thyroid, nausea, tongue burns, poor
appetite. You'd think it would be iris but I've tried it (30c) and all I get
is a bit happier, maybe a touch of pain relief but not much (placebo?).
Higher potency? I do a number of things for my thyroid but not consistently
enough, probably.

2) What in the world are the differences between
- aching pain
- boring pain
- burning pain
- drawing pain
- gnawing pain
- pressing pain
- shooting pain
- stitching pain
- tearing pain
- soreness
I'm looking up my hip pain and those are the choices. Oy. Thank
you. Margaret

Friends,
1) if one takes a remedy "for" gall bladder (among other things), can it
be expected to dissolve stones, and is the absence of pain an indication that
the stones are gone?
2) how do I look up adult muscular dystrophy related to homeopathy? I
tried google but got colloquial referrences (no repetory citations). I tried
homeoint but got nothing at all. Is MD called something else in the reps? I
KNOW it's a disease name, not a symptom, but the reps and mms do suggest rems
for looking at re disease names.
Thanks so much once again for helping. Best, Margaret

1) The gall stones are outside of the body proper, therefore, I don't see
that would dissolve. Actually, the correct remedy should eliminate the
symptoms which are the body's REACTION to the stones and are not caused by
the stones themselves unless an actual obstruction occurs. Many people die
with gall stones that never had symptoms.

2) I would not try to repertorize MD since that is a pathologic diagnosis.
Find what is characteristic in the case and work on that i.e. physical
generals, nature of the patient, types of pain, modalities, etc.

be well

Gall stones are not "outside" the body, they are in the gall bladder and are
formed because the make-up of the gall bladder is not in balance.

If the correct remedy is prescribed, they should go, as do kidney stones!!

Soroush,

Technically, gallstones are outside the body. The cavities of the digestive
tract, urinary tract, respiratory tract are external to the body. While some
types of bladder/kidney stones can dissolve if the properties of the urine
are changed e.g. made more acidic, there are types that don't dissolve well
at all. In working with animals, we don't see gall stones so I am relating
the experiences of others in terms of gall stones. However, if we have some
confirmed cases of them dissolving, I am open to that info.

be well

Hello group,

I do not usually write into this list. One of these questions may be inappropriate - please let me know. First, does anyone know of a qualified homeopath and a qualified, reputable chiropractor in or near the area of Braunschweig, Germany ? Second, has anyone heard of "Tahitian Noni Juice" and is it effective ? The injuries involved are rib and neck from a car accident two months ago.

Many thanks,

cant help with referrals in germany, but the noni juice is from a fruit from polynesia. it is reputed
to heal all kinds of stuff. it is being sold here in the usa as part of a pyramid type distribution.
it is apparently a fruit very rich in phytochemicals. have you checked it out on the internet.?
