Could someone please indicate for lookup in the Mat.Med a condition
involving buzzing in the ears; pressure felt in the head but no pain;
high blood pressure and very low blood sugar despite appropriate
dietary intakes.
Many thanks.

Suggest you read the repertory; see if you can put a finer point on your
description &/or translate it into repertory language.
The rubric 'Ear,Noises in,buzzing' contains 164 remedies.
You'll need to translate "pressure felt in the head but no pain" -as 'head,
pressure' does not appear - possibly "constriction" or "pulsation" or... ?
High BP & low blood sugar should be also translated (indirectly) into
homeopathic symptoms.
Please note that these symptoms taken together do sound like a potentially
dangerous condition(!) which may warrant allopathic intervention.. and
which does not seem like a good candidate for self-treatment or treatment by
beginner-homeopath.

There is an astounding range of noises listed in the repertory under "ear
noises in" -- it's quite educational just to read through the whole rubric
and realize how many different kinds of noises have been studied.
For the low blood sugar, you will need to repertorize the symptomsit causes,
with modalities.

I see a lot of nutritional advice here at Minutus. That's just great. But if the person giving the advice is not in excellent health or, more importantly, has not made great strides in improving their own health problems, then what possible good is their advice to me!? And if someone says that they have credibility but that their own health issues are not curable, I just reject that idea that not everything can be cured, not because it may or may not be true, but because it is a philosophy that doesn't do anyone any good. And it is usually an excuse for failure, especially when coming from the medical profession. Only death is incurable, and it turns out that death is not a bad thing but a thing that we create based upon how we have treated others.
And if someone says that they have credibility because they know a lot even if they haven't made great strides in their own health, then I wonder just how valuable their knowledge is.
I recently had my mind blown when a health practitioner admitted that they had X, Y, and Z health problems, and I wondered why I was listening to that otherwise good and intelligent person. It is true that he or she had great knowledge of a technical nature regarding their very technical speciality, and I am happy to listen to them with regard to their speciality, but health credibility of a general nature he or she did not have with me.
I am not targeting anyone with this comment; I usually don't connect names to ideas since I am so focused on the ideas; so no one has to take my remarks personally, ever.

that reminds me of when i've done homeopathy talks with partial laryngitis or a bad case of post nasal drip. it's happened on more than one occasion and it was painfully obvious to me that this would seriously reduce my credibility, even tho really, if people actually understand, that's ridiculous. just because i purport that homeopathy is amazing and works, does not have to mean that i personally have solved all my health problems, forever. it's a very unfortunate and short sighted attitude.

Yes, this sort of thought can scuttle a good practitioner relationship:) However, it helps to remember that many of us, while born with an assortment of predilections and influences, and perhaps insulted many times along the way, came to homeopathy at a certain age, where pathology caused by our dysfunction was well along and even immediately life-threatening by the time we grabbed the lifeline of homeopathy. Unraveling chronic disease can be a long and twisted process, and pathology sometimes impossible to correct. We can help the body function, we can change the expression of genes, we can bring peace and good function to many processes, but there is pathology cast in stone, damage that cannot be undone. It's a sliding scale, though it seems unlikely that certain organs, glands, bones, etc. will be prodded back to full or even partial function.
Online, we cannot readily see the wheelchairs, or the effort given daily to keep our old, beat-up frames appearing to function normally. But we can see when a person, online or in the flesh, is still exploring, learning, and trying to live as well as he can. The others, the ones who can't seem to be helped - well, we each give up on them at a different point.

This brings us back to the root of homeopathy and of any human activity, basically: individualisation.....and presentation
We all keep having to deal with acutes....if I had been in your case, Rachel, I would have presented the situation as a half-full glass: "despite having laryngitis, and thanks to homeopathy, I am able to give my talk, albeit nasally, whereas without homeopathy I would be in bed and the talk cancelled".
As for chronic health problems, it depends not only "what" it is but "how" you deal with it and live with it.....nothing is more hilarious in my clinic than patients asking me to cure their loss of hair; and yet, despite being an egghead, I often manage to do so by resolving the patient's core issues, which are related to them, not to why I save a lot on shampoo and conditioner.
I mentioned earlier that I still pay for my childhood nutritional behaviour with my dental health; that does not prevent me to recommend and treat dental problems in patients, when those problems are within the scope of my knowledge.
That being said, "Healer, heal thyself" is still perfectly valid.
Joe.

I find when people attack me for not being perfect a) I tell them I am a work in progress, and b) I know they are
looking to promote their own denial and refusal to look at different kinds of information that may be uncomfortable
for them to deal with.
