These questions are designed to get the following information from the patient

2. Physical Ailments
3. The likely cause for above problems
4. The modalities like whether the patient feels well or worse in hot weather, cold weather etc., he is relieved by / worsenened by hot applications, cold applications etc.

Please give her Belladonna 30 in the morning and evening for 3 days and see how that affects.
♡ kadwa last decade
couple of questions....this belladona if in pills she would take 2 pills as one dose? and also...she is not sure the pain is shingles now she is thinking it might just be nerve pain due to pressure from baby growing it is making her leg sore..is this still a good formula for her?
and it is safe during pregnancy right? thank you
and it is safe during pregnancy right? thank you
dawnv5 last decade
Belladonna 30C is safe during pregnancy. It should help her pain even though it may not be shingles.
♡ kadwa last decade
thank you i have ordered the belladona 30X but now she also has sore throat maybe some fever and was sweating during the night...will this help that too or is there something else that we could add to the belladona? thanks again!!
dawnv5 last decade
also she tends to have allergies seasonally although this might be strep throat which i think she gets often as well..seems to get lots of urinart tract infections as well
dawnv5 last decade
Why did you order Belladonna 30X? i suggested Belladonna 30C. Belladonna should help her overall.
♡ kadwa last decade
Ok I will order belladonna instead
dawnv5 last decade
we think she might have flu..she has 101.2 fever even after tylenol...will belladona help with that?
dawnv5 last decade
we have ordered the belladona and are waiting its arrival but she still has fever and was tested for mono and it was negative and waiting on results for strep test and cmv virus test...is it still ok to use belladona when it arrives if it turns out to be viral cmv??
dawnv5 last decade
we just received the belladona 30c but she is now over her virus...her concern is that the virus was CMV and that it could have harmed the baby...would it be of use to take it now even after the illness has passed or should she just skip it for now...she is now 9 weeks pregnant
