The ABC Homeopathy Forum
Side Effects
Hello,I'm in my 40s, and having psoriasis, some people call it Eczema on fingers and palms of my both hands since about 20 years.
I have been seeing doctors but it didnt work then I contacted one of the Homeopathic doctors, he advised me two Medicines:
1:Sulphar-30c
2:Arsenic Alb-30c
Both in lequid from, two times a day for three months, then he inhanced the potency upto 200c, which I have been for nearly 9 months now, and am still using it.
But have lost about 4KG weight and my body has become very thin and I even dont want to see my face, as it looks like cage of bones,, I feel so scared as I had a very smart body, now eveyone is asking about my health, saying whats the problem, you are getting weaker and weaker day by day...
My desease is 80% ok now but I'm worried, and when I contacted the doctor he still suggested I should keep it continue for at least 3 months, but I'm worried about my overall health, I have lost my looks.
I have been to the hospital where they have tested my Urine and blood sugar, evertying was fine, but I assume its a 'Side Effect' of these medicines.
Can you please advise me... 1: What to do with thes medicines?
2: How can I regain my looks and make my face normal and body smart again, (full of meat)?
I'll be very grateful to you for your qucick and detailed reply, I'm so worried.
Thank you

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
There is no need to take the medicines any more now. So you should stop taking sulphur and ars and see how that affects you in the next 30 days.

**You may be proving Sulphur.
2: What shall I do if the symptoms got worst after stopping medicines?
**You should wait patiently otherwise you will have to continue with these remedies lifelong and there won't be any end to the confusion.
3: Do you suggest any medicine to regain my weight, as my body looks very thin and face very weak now OR what shall I do?
**Please don't take any homeo remedies for one month and the things stabilize.

A homeo polychrest remedy has many symptoms listed in the Materia Medica. We can't have all the symptoms of that remedy in any person living in the world. So we arrive at the totality of symptoms instead of being guided by the total mass of symptoms.
Now having worked a remedy on the basis of totality of symptoms if we adminster that remedy to the patient there is a chance that the patient may start demonstrating some symptoms that there are in the remedy and from which the patient was not suffering earlier. This is called as remedy proving and these symptoms go away if further dosing of the remedy is stopped. So this is not like allopathic side effect where a new disease is created by the medicine.
So the answer to your question ...
Are they the possible side-effects of the Medicines or they are the diseases the Medicines can cure....???
...Yes if the remedy is repeated regularly there may be possible side effects in the form of remedy proving.
If the remedy is taken in the right potency and only that much doses are taken as are necessary to stimulate the vital force, the symptoms (diseases) are cured.

Please come with all details after one month. Please understand that homeopathic remedy doesn't cure a specific disease condition, it provides a stimulation to the vital force and it is the vital force that effects the overall cure and not the cure of any disease condition. So giving information about individual symptoms won't help, you should disclose all the information. This facilitates working out of the indicated remedy which may start the process of overall recovery.
Please copy the Questionnaire from the following thread after 30 days
http://www.abchomeopathy.com/forum2.php/188925/
and post all the questions here duly answered. On that basis your remedy may be worked out.

1: What is the main cause or reason of ED?
The cause may be psychological or psycho-somatic.
2: Does Masterbation have any role in causing ED (Allopethic Doctors recommend it instead)
Having sex daily in any form may lead to ED. It is better to restrict it once a week. It is better to have only intra marital sex.
3: Is there any permanent treatment of ED in Homeopathy or it needs to be cured through other ways, e.g using specefic type of food, exercise etc?
Homeo remedies act at dynamic plane so these remedies can treat any disorders. But nothing in this world is permanent.

Puls works well for people with mild disposition. It also antidotes Sulphur. ';the stool type is vary' is a very peculiar symptom of Pulsatilla.
Pulsatilla means Pulsatilla Nigricans.

China is indicated if there is loss of vital fluids due to some reasons. No suggestions can be given for only one symptom, you need to tell about your stools, thirst, mental state, thermal preference etc while asking for the remedy. Remedy suggested on the basis of only one symptom often does more damage than the good.

Hello Dr. Kadwa,
Thanks for your reply. As for as your enquiry about symptoms is concerned, I would like to say my stools, thirst, thermal, and mental state is OK. The only problems I'm having and for which I had to contact that former Homeo Dr.were: 1:Eczema
2:ED (PME)
And for Eczema he prescirbed me Sulphar for a year, the eczema I can say that almost gone, but the side effect I got is that I lost about 3-4 kg weight as well a my looks, as my cheeks got dented and I look terribly skinny now.
And this is what I want to recover, and when I told him about this draw-back he advised me Chinna-off 1x, but before using this remedy I contacted you, and you sent me a long questionnaire which I filled in and sent back to you, in reply you prescribed me 'Pulsatilla Nigricans' which I have used and now I'm looking for your further advice that how my weight & looks can be recovered?
I hope you will help.
