Ok Misty,

Ok so now that I think about it maybe things are being helped... Ok

Karen, I must say you could be right.... I know I have to change my

thinking, it is just so hard for something you don't know too much about....

I need to learn, learn, learn.... I don't want to give up either. I do

know that natural forms of anything are a LOT better than the drugs out

there from the pharmaceutical companies.

 

OK, I didn't notice her snoring as bad when I gave the remedies. She seemed

to sleep better not perfect still problem breathing from her nose.

Although, today for instance, she took a nap and was back to snoring really

bad and she seemed really clogged up sounding. It is almost as if something

triggers it, just can't figure out what. Her left tonsil is still enlarged

because I checked earlier in the morning. Right one doesn't seem

enlarged... She has no discharge and hasn't had any since I gave her those

other remedies a while back. Now I guess I should have checked her tonsils

as I was giving remedy to see if they were still enlarged. I am not good at

this as you can tell... She wasn't more clingy. Although we had an episode

with her toe, she whined about it a lot. That is why I didnt give the

remedy until Sunday night. It was swollen/pussy from a possibly ingrown toe

nail or blister from new shoes. Well I decided to use what I had and soaked

it in Tea Tree Oil in water. I happened to read that EOs antidote the

remedies, so I waited until evening.

 

Well now something new just came up... My daughter is itching herself...

It doesn't look like there is anything wrong, no redness or swelling... Now

this brings something to mind that may be related. I just didn't think

about it until she started itching. It is just I am learning with

Homeopathy details are so important... She used to itch herself a good bit

say 5 months ago, but then stopped and I didn't think nothing of it. Now I

am wondering if it could be related? My daughter had ear infections

starting about 15 months and she would always get one with a cold. She

didn't get colds often enough for her to be on other medications, but she

got the usual antibiotic. I know antibiotics cause yeast problems in

adults, same for children? She has stopped getting ear infections since I'd

say a year or so ago thank goodness. We have a reliable doctor who said she

would probably outgrow them and she did. So she hasn't had antibiotics for

a while, but I guess that could have hurt her in some other way. She was

also a colicky baby, which I don't know if that matters now. Also, a very

stressful household too at the time. She was my first born, learning to

breastfeed and had our inlaws living with us. So there is a little more

background... I just wasn't sure if it is applicable or not. Another

thing that may or may not be applicable. Oh the things that come back from

the past.... Sorry... Anyhow, she may of had problem with certain

foods/dairy/butter when 1-2 yrs old. There were certain times her stomach

would get upset. I thought it was a dairy problem since I and my father

couldn't drink milk when we were babies.... Of course doctors say it isn't

hereditary so what do I know. Anyhow, as an example, I can remember

vividly. We were at a Christmas party and there was this broccoli/rice dish

with lots of butter. Well, my daughter ate it and promptly threw it up on

me.... There were other times milk didn't sit well with her either. Not

all the time though which I can't figure out why. Maybe something else is

causing the problem to make it worse. Who knows...

 

So saying all that here is a summary of rubrics we had with possible

changes:

 

 

Nose, discharge, suppressed ****may not be applicable since there

was no discharge when giving remedy. Remedy should relieve suppression

correct? It may have only been suppressed before since she was getting a

cold. She might not have anything else suppressed.

 

Throat, swelling, tonsils ****Same but may only be left I'll

check again

Throat, swelling, tonsils, left ****same

Respiration, snoring. ****possibly better with remedy,

not totally corrected. Although something must trigger it because this

evening she isn't snoring badly.... Oh this is so frustrating.... Maybe

dampness... We were outside on the porch before her nap today.... It was a

rainy dreary day. I don't know if sleeping on one side is better or not. I

tried to determine that before and I don't think it matter what side she

slept on.

Respiration, difficult, nose, felt in ****same

respiration; difficult; children; ****same

respiration; difficult; during sleep; **** possibly better with remedy, but

not totally corrected. Something must trigger or cause it. She is sleeping

somewhat peacefully now.

 

Itchiness ****Will monitor her

tomorrow to see if still true

 

Ok I'm done. Sorry for this being so long... I do appreciate help with

this. It is truly a learning experience... THANK YOU!!!

Hi Lisa...

 

You are doing a fine job! Yes, homeopathy can be like entering the

world of Alice and wonderland, at first... But you are catching on

quite quickly...

 

For the milk aggravation, ie.- being worse from drinking milk,

Pulsatilla is a two- so I still think we are on track. Now that is

not to say, that in future a different remedy might be indicated,

like Belladonna for an ear-ache, even though she aggravates from

milk- a Puls. symptom (but also found in other remedies). This is

an issue of a constitutional remedy vs. a legional remedy. But I

don't think we have to go there just now...

 

Because the Puls. does seem to be helping. To have snoring improve

in only 2 days is really quite remarkable. So let's keep on keeping

on...

 

Basically you have given the remedy 4-5 times a day, that is

fine... I was wondering if she got better than worse because that

would be a sign of taking the remedy too much... But since that is

not the case, I would continue to aim for 4-5 times a day. Do this

for another 2-3 days and check back in...

 

This is probably a good time to say that an entrenched pattern such

as snoring does not have to resolve itself in 2-3 days, nor a week,

nor a month- instead what we want to see is the progression of

cure. In allopathic medicine, symptoms are eliminated quickly, so

we say people are " healed " but I think this is done by squashing the

body, which in turns makes it weaker and more susceptible. In

homeopathy we allow more time because we understand the body has to

work through the process of becoming well, and by allowing the body

the time to go through the process, it comes out stronger in the

end, in addition to having less symptoms.

 

Speaking of progression of cure- the itching just might be a good

sign. We will have to see what happens to be sure, but when

previous symptoms return, it is viewed that the body really is

taking on that healing process and it is resolving previously

unresolved situations. Many other branches of alternative medicine

have this concept as well, last symptoms heal first, and the first

symptoms heal last. According to this line of thought, please don't

be surprised if she gets an earache...

 

The other thing to consider, has she ever had a rash? Is she

developing a rash? In homeopathy we see rashes as the body's

attempt to express and throw off disease. If we hit the nail on the

head, a rash may develop and this is undoubtedly a wonderful sign.

If this happens please leave the rash alone- no steriods, ointments,

ect! You can apply a nice veggie oil such as almond or olive, but

we do not want to squash the rash in any way because we do not want

to drive the illness back inside the body.

 

Thirdly, the itching or any other new symtpoms could be insight into

the next remedy layer coming to show it self... So in other words,

it could also mean that a new symtpom picture is developing which

would require again taking the case and finding the then best remedy

to match that symptom picture....

 

So, where does that leave us? If it were me, myself and I, I would

keep on with the Puls for 4-5x/day for 2-3 days and then check back

in and tell us how everything has developed. But should anything

change for the better or the worse before then, please feel free to

keep us informed...

 

Be Well,

Misty
