Guest guest Posted January 27, 2001 Report Share Posted January 27, 2001 Yes, I have lots of anecdotes about the efficacy of flower essences. I have a few files of letters that people have written to me about using my essences. One I remember is a woman who does not have a strong constitution and whom got carried away by her love of the ocean. She body surfed for much longer than she should have in the cold water and when she came out she could not get warm at all. She tried everything from drying off, taking a hot shower, drinking hot tea etc and nothing was bringing any warmth back into her body. She was starting to think she'd have to be rushed to the hospital when she remembered that she had a bottle of my Emergency Relief essence in her purse and she said that when the first drop hit her tongue she felt all the warmth whoosh back into her body in an instant. Another story that I'll always remember is the one by a woman who used my " Grieving " combination essence as part of her healing from some sexual abuse in the past. She had been in therapy for some time and had yet to be able to cry although she really wanted to. She called me 3 weeks after receiving the essence to tell me that as soon as she had taken the essence she had started to cry. She cried and released on and off for a couple of days and then in the weeks following had many small memories of things, some of which she had forgotten, that had happened in her life...and each just flowed through her and floated away. She felt she released a lifetime reservoir of grief in those weeks. blessings, Kathrin on Fox Mountain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chapter 11 is about the crab apple and they call it the 'cleansing' remedy for despondency and despair. I don't think I feel despondant or desperate but I am pretty fed up with my big belly! The book also appears to speak in term of applying the remedy to your bath or as a lotion. It quotes the positive aspect of crab appple as being people who maintain complete control of their thoughts, and who have the wisdom to see things in their correct proportions. They are broadminded people who do not dwell on trifles, and who realize that any manifestation of a physical disorder is due to an inner disharmony, thus it is within their own power to transmute in into harmony. I would say that this is me but I am not sure if this is meant to be before or after I have taken the crab apple! The book has always confused me.

The reason I ask is because the two nurses that I mentioned before gave me an ultrasound but they concentrated on my lower abdominal area even though I pointed out to them that the bloating was in the upper abdominal area. The examination was extrememly uncomfortable as they kept rubbing the instrument over the scar from my op, despite my expressing how painful this was. The clinic I attended for this was not a gyny clinic, so I came away feeling that the whole examination was inapropriate and that they were incompetant and ignorant. This was a year or so ago, hence my interest in some other kind of healing treatment and my reluctance to return to my local NHS. Our local hospital has no stars in the rating system. Would it be unsafe to assume that I have Ascites anyway and go ahead with some kind of alternative remedy? Katrina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 Dear Katrina, Asites is not a gynec problem. It can be general. Liver Function Test and a competent examination by a physician, not by a nurse, will reveal. If you are not satisfied with the local NHS, you could seek out a physician for one private consultation instead of going ahead with a treatment that may not be addressing the actual problem. If you must do that way, I would strongly suggest that you go to www.hpathy.com and register yourself at the Forum. Afte registering and logging in, look for the topic, 'Homeopathic Questionnaire' and then copy that questionnaire, fill in your answers and post as a New Topic. There are several professional homeopaths, and some of them will help you. All this is free of course. Only if you need to specifically work with a homeoath, taking his/her time, you may need to pay his/her fee. While the procedure looks simple, let me warn you that the questionnaire is very extensive and also that you are taking a big responsibility on yourself in writing down symptoms correctly and for the outcome of the treatment. Does this 'swelling' keep changing its size, shape etc., or has it remained constant? Are you still menstruating or have you entered menopause? Sorry for asking, since all the information which you might have provided earlier is not in memory. Best wishes.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 ---Hi Swamy, I am wonderfully free from menustration since my op in May 2000 and I started my menopause this summer with hot flashes being my worst symptom. The bloating has been present since my op and it has remained constant resembling a five month pregnancy. It does not change its size or shape but I have occasional bouts of severe wind when I feel some relief and think to myself, maybe this means the bloating will at last go away, but alas it does not.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2003 Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 Dear Katrina, I still suggest that you get a thorough exam by an internist. It could be 'air' traped inside due to anxiety or Ascites or abdominal fat, though that looks unlikely. One more question. Did your weight go up or stay constant with this increase? If it is water accumulation, weight would increase maximum. Fat will be somewhat less. If it is swallowed air, weight increase will be zero. Once you know the actual problem, treatment can be focussed. Best wishes.
