Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many cases

I am copying a long series of posts on the ABC Homeopathy forum which visitors to my website may find interesting as it dates back to 2006 and is a record of my own progress in Homeopathy and records the evolution of Joepathy which term was coined by the classical homeopaths on the ABC to derisively describe my own therapy which they maintained was not Homeoapthy as I did not abide by the classical rules to “Treat the totality of the symptoms that the patient presents, with a SINGLE remedy”. I begged to differ as I discovered many years ago that this classical diktat just did not work and commenced my own therapy which they coined and described as Joepathy. This term attracts over 1760 hits on Google and if you insert my name Joe De Livera into this same search engine it shows 58000+ Hits but not all pertain to my name.

I would like to copy first the last post on the ABC on this thread which a member dug up from the archives which gave me the idea of copying it on my own website to give visitors a better understanding of my own vision of Joepathy which is in my opinion an extension of Homeoapthy which works in a manner that classical homeopathy cannot equal.

Glad that you liked my post which intrigues me as it was first made by me in January 2004 which is all of 8 years ago which makes me 83 years old and thank God I am still alive and kicking in the same manner that I have been doing for the last, say 70 years of my life.

I must also give Arnica the credit due to its miraculous power to maintain life at an optimum level and I would refer you to my article “Arnica the Miracle Remedy” on

Arnica the MIRACLE REMEDY

I drive daily to work and back and I am the CEO of a family owned business which was established by my late father in 1924 before I was born and in which my youngest son is now in charge of, although I still call the “shots”. I spend about 2-3 hours on Homeoapthy on this ABC and my own Website and also try to help any patients who consult me in office when I give my services and the medicines free of charge.

A good example of the ‘proof of the pudding’ in my affinity to Homeopathy and more especially Arnica is the fact that no one who meets me believes my age which they usually estimate at around 65 years. I do not bear the usual signs of old age and do not sport any wrinkles on my skin. I do not have any aches and pains in my body and I exercise daily for around 45 minutes to lift my heart bpm to 115 for about 10 minutes. Sometimes to 120 if I feel good.

If you will spend some time on my Website you will read more about my research into Homeopathy which I have “simplified” into what the classical homeopaths on this and other forums have derisively classified as “Joepathy” which is an aspect of this curative art which is practical and works in a manner more positively to cure than classical homeopathy which in the majority of cases just gives the suffering patient the run around while the classical homeopath beats about the bush as instructed by the classical exponents of this science.

I am not alone in my “this for that” therapy and you will tead if you visit the website below:

Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many cases

Dear friends,

I had posted these thoughts of mine on another thread.But for the benefit of all the members and to encourage further discussion, i have started a new thread and pasted it here.

Rajiv

Dear Joe,

First of all, let me express my admiration for you as a compassionate human being.I am sure you may remember that i have appreciated your efforts in the past too.

But in the example above cited, the patient was cured by a dose of Pulsatilla 200 which you had suggested.Pulsatilla is one of the main remedies in homeopathy for the rubric “worse by heat”, and hence cured.It was simple homeopathy and not ‘Joepathy’, which i believe is associated with Arnica, Nat. Phos. & Nat. Sulph.

I have for long thought to share some of my thoughts on why your prescriptions appear to work in a number of cases.I think it is the right time to do so.

Arnica, as everyone knows is the number one remedy for the shock of a trauma, whether the trauma is physical or mental.The reason is that it has a tendency to increase the flow of oxygen to the site of trauma.In case of physical trauma, to the site of injury, and in case of mental shock, to the affected part of the brain.That is why it is one of the leading remedies in the cases of brain haemorrhage too.Evn when a person is very fatigued after very severe hard work, a dose of Arnica brings a calming influence and takes away the fatigue due to increased oxygenation in the blood.What is happening in your case is that due to your old age (which causes poor oxygenation due to old age) and your hard working routine (which must be causing a lot of internal wear and tear at the cellular level), Arnica acts like a kind of ‘superficial similimum’ and tones you up so to speak ensuring nice sleep etc.Arnica is one of the main remedies that Dr.Parimal Banerjee (one of the greatest homeopaths that India has ever produced with the world record of having treated over 1.5 million people in his time) recommends for high blood pressure.The reason is again very simple to see.Arnica naturally pushes the blood flow, and causes the heart to relax a bit in confirmed cases of hypertension.In such cases, hypertension is the disease condition to which Arnica acts as a ‘superficial similimum’.In fact, your experiment on your own self has definitely encouraged me to conduct some experiments of my own.These experiments were inspired by you.My father-in-law was suffering from gangrene of his right toe, which was in danger of being amputated.I asked him to take the wet dose of Arnica 30 and to apply Arnica Q dilution externally.The condition was healed in two months.The reasonis simple enough.The Arnica caused the highly oxygenated blood to reach the gangrenous toe.So yes, your self proving of Arnica is valuable to the homeopathic community, but more care should be taken in prescribing.There should be circumstances calling for Arnica, rather than prescribing it left, right and center to all comers.Even young people.That could cause a proving.

Nat. Phos. is a noted remedy for GERD and acidity.But it works on the Schussler’s biochemic principle.But why does it in some cases cause a reduction in weight loss?I will try to explain.Nat. Phos. (this is biochemic theory and not a homeopathic one) is the main biochemic remedy to restore the acid-base order in the body.An enhanced acid level in the body indicates that a great portion of the sugar metabolism in the body is taking place via fermentation which is due to the presence of anaerobic bacteria in very high quantities.These bacteria generate a high toxic load which teh liver is then unable to process out of the body.So it causes the body to generate a lot of fat to dissove and store the water insoluble toxins.With Nat. Phos., the acidity is reduced and hence the detoxification starts at a rapid pace in cases such as those above.This causes the fat which was generated to store the toxins in the first place, to be released and dissolved.

Nat. Sulph. is the most important homeopathic remedy in cases of asthma worse in damp places or in areas near the seashore.Colombo is near the sea and hence the high rate of success in curing asthma cases there with Nat Sulph.If Joe would read Von Grauvogl and his description of the usefulness of Nat. Sulph. in asthama cases in hydrogenoid (Grauvogl’s term for people who suffer from excess of water in their body) constitutions, he would realize why it works in these cases.And why it does not work in some cases where he needs to resort to Arsenic, Blatta etc.

Any way.These discussions are only going to enhance everyone’s knowledge and hence keep them flowing.

With warm regards to Joe and everyone else,

Rajiv

Now, Joepathy as a seperate therapy is declared officially, and we shouldn’t have any hesitation in letting people choose it if they want, among so many other therapies like,Aurveda,Acupuncture,Yoga,Reiki,Unani,Chinese,Herbal..etc..etc.

Joepathy mainly uses Arnica,Nat.sulph,Nat.Phos for all most all ailments on this earth, with antibiotic gels, and medicines added sometimes.

I am sure google will pickup this word soon,if not already done so.

Dear Jacob,

Thanks for your appreciation.One thing i always very deeply think about is why do certain remedies pick up a reputation for helping in certain conditions.The so called ‘specifics’.In this i am inspired by James Burnett who was one of the great maters of yesteryears who really understood his remedies, and hence found uses for certain lesser known remedies where other homeopaths would not dream of using them.

With warm regards,

May be it is Joe’s healing capabilities not just his prescriptions.

Materia works in strange ways, once I gave a patient Antimony Crudum for some ailment but in hours his rock like tennis ball like hanging tumor under his eyes was gone in some hours.

It was just gone. He went to hundreds of homeopathys for the treatment of tumor but gave up.

When I gave him antimony crudum I didn’t have that tumor in my mind.

One year ago just a leaf of Helix Hedera reversed hydrocephalus in a small child where everybody else gave up and family were utterly poor slum dwellers, were unable to afford any decent medical attention.

A friend of mine, (Not a fundamentalist homeopath) asked me to fetch helix hedera from some vendor in USA because he was unable to find it in India, I happened to be in Mcleod Gung (Himalayas) and couried him just few leaves of it.

Homeopathy does not end in a book but begins from the book and goes beyond for ever…

If one happen to realize healing powers of materia and uses it with courage, God give him a hand.

I never consider myself a homeopath, but a believer of materia.

Hahnemann instructed his students to make more provings, not to lick a fixed ‘The Last Testament’.

Fundamentalism is the root cause of all problems because fundamentalists believe in some medival Last Testament.

This pathy or that pathy can cure this or that and cannot not cure that or this.

Many people like me and you become hobby homeopaths, we cure some and unable to cure some.

Classical homeopaths too cure some, unable to cure some.

When a curing happen fundamentalists say:

…. Yeah, you cured but it is temporary, faulty, not whole ….. in long term problem would even go worse ….

Last year one girl was cured of her kidney disease (was scheduled for kidney transplant in two weeks). I gave her Serum Anguillae.

Homeopathy College principal (whole college was treating that girl for two years) called me and cursed me, he said oh yeah…. temporary relief… faulty relief.. fake relief….

Two lives were saved by a so called pathy. One was the poor paid donor and other was the girl, all transplants last few years.

Dear Kuldeep.

I too have seen some amazing cures, not least of all small grains of sand actually working their way out of an ex builders callouses after just one dose of Silicea in an LM, literally before my eyes.

Also, I couldn’t agree more with your assertions, which is why my own work very much revolves around bringing Homoeopathy into the 21st century, to encompass all the WORTHWHILE advances made since the days of Hahnemann, as well as scientific advances made by allopathy, such as the discovery of micro-organisms. It is also why I have myself self-proved over 300 remedies, many of them new, and why I am also working toward finding similiums for new threats to health, so I would hardly consider myself a ‘fundamentalist’ 😉
…but I do all this only within the parameters of original doctrine, as this is, and always will be the source, and when we detract from this, we lose the essence of Homoeopathy.

Dear Murthy

Experimenting with materia I have concluded that it works in strange unpredicted way. Most often simimum fails.

Why?

We are already exposed to thousands of materia in varous potencies as pollution.

One may prescribe Antimony crudum in a certain potency but most probably a patient is already exposed to it as air or water pollution so similum fails.

But if a body is exposted to a certain strange potentized materia, that offers most of the chance.

If I can’t cure a patient I try to expose his body to strangest of the strangest materia. Could be Mercury or Antimony or Cyanide for him but not for all.

Similum works may not work because body is already exposed to that so find strangest shock.

My cousin has never endin sinus problem, with homeopathy he is half better. Last week we were walking and I asked him to chew some goldenrod pollen grains, he chewed and instantly got hay fever.

So most probably he was having hay fever from goldenrod… This gives his case an another dimension.

An Example:

Graphites used to work as a great potent medicine about a hundred years ago but it does not work at all because it is a household material these days, our body is already exposed to it in all possible potencies, same thing is with petroleum…

So these factors must be considered before prescribing..

On the other hand, in these days Silica works excellent and predictably because our bodies are just too clean.

Nat. Phos and Nat. Sulphate are not easily found in environment so they work in these days.

Alumina would never work on a potter. Petroleum would never work on a petrol pump attendent.

Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many cases From rajivprasad on 2006-10-16
Dear Kuldeep,

I would like to say three things.First is that i have always admired your streak of innovativeness and have read almost all of your contributions on this forum with a lot of interest.Your ‘silica’ thread, your pencil ‘graphites’ adventures, your thread on different remedies and so on.I really enjoyed all of them and also learned a lot from them.

Second is that i am myself an experimenter, and am by no means an orthodox, licking a bible type, boring person that i may come across as.I understand fully well that like any subject, homeopathy also needs to develop and evolve.Of all the experiments that you are making, some may become well established and become a part of standard materia medica in the future.But what is also important is to not throw the baby away with the bathwater.You can experiment as much as you wish.Some will succeed spectacularly and some will fail.But as long as one is willing to learn and observe, the knowledge of the individual as well as of the subject itself grows.

Third is that one not only needs to experiment and use exotic remedies, but also why certain remedies are working in certain conditions, and if there is an overlap of symptoms where two or more remedies are indicated, can we identify specific and distinguishing characteristics of these new remedies, to choose from among them.That is the only way one can contribute to the development of new materia medica.

I can see a similar attempt being made at your own website too.Isn’t it?Your software to help people identify their constitutional remedy is also an attempt to individualize, if i understand correctly.So where is a fundamental difference of opinion.

Rajiv

P.S. to Pankaj,

Now as for pressing ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ buttons, i don’t know what is being said.Why should any one think like that?We are not here to press buttons.At least i am not.And don’t try to behave like the class bully who will scare the tiny little children into submission.If you want to participate in discussions, please do so like an educated man and also try to live up to your Guru’s revered name.Give solid arguments and for God’s sake, stop behaving like a small child whose candies have been stolen.I have always been giving respect to you but you insist upon raking up a controversy.There is nothing to be gained by this sort of attitude.

Dear Kuldeep,

You said that “Graphites used to work as a great potent medicine about a hundred years ago but it does not work at all because it is a household material these days……same thing is with Petroleum”.

But this is surprising coming from the person whose “What is Graphites” thread where you recommended making potentized Graphites from pencil material, was so polular on this forum.You yourself recounted a number of thrilling and successful cures with it and inspired a lot of the people here on the forum to experiment more.

There was another thread on which you suggested a very popular protocol for treatment of eczema.You suggested to take one remedy one week, then the next one next week and so on till the eczema responded to a particular remedy.I clearly remember that Graphites and Petroleum were the two of the remedies in that protocol.In fact you are on record saying that these are the two main remedies for the treatment of eczema.If they don’t work nowadays, i wonder why you recommended them.

In my personal experience, i have tried your pencil graphites experiment with 5 children and it has worked.So it still works as both of us have confirmed.In two of these cases, i had to give Graphites 10M and above for which i used normally prepared Graphites as it is almost impossible to run the potency of the pencil Graphites thing to that high.

You also said that:

“Alumina would never work on a potter. Petroleum would never work on a petrol pump attendant”.

Why is that?If what you say is correct then what about the Arndt’s law.I hope you have heard about it.

It states that “weak and strong stimulii provoke opposite physiologica reactions”.So if a person is poisoned with a particular toxin or drug the same toxin or drug given in extreme dilutions helps to neutralize the poisonous effects of the crude drug or toxin.This law is one of the things which helped many allopaths to understand why the homeopathic remedies work.This is also the basis for Isopathy, which Hahnemann so strongly rejected.But he got it absolutely wrong of course, as today the Nosodes are an integral part of a homeopath’s armamentarium.And they work.They are the most potent remedies in homeopathy.

I will end with only one example from my experience, though there are more than a hundred that i could share.I treated a person a few years back who told me of a strong adverse reaction to Sulpha drugs.Whenever he took any Sulpha drug, he felt very ill all over his body.Sulphur 10M, one dose cured his sciatica and he is pain free for the last 4 years.

I would love to hear your detailed thoughts.

With warm regards,

Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many cases From Joe De Livera on 2006-10-16
To Rajiv

Thank you for your treatise on how Arnica, Nat Phos, Nat Sulph react to resolve the respective ailments that I have prescribed them for patients whom I have helped on the homeopathic forums. This is, I feel, the attitude that other homeopaths should emulate by sharing their knowledge based on their own discoveries with the use of standard Homeopathic remedies in curing diseases which were not listed in the Repertories. I reported about 2 years ago that I had discovered that Arnica reduced Blood Sugar levels in both Type I and II Diabetics and as usual my report was held up in scorn immediately. It was only when other homeopaths discovered that Arnica does in fact reduce BS levels and as you also rightly included BP levels in patients, that those who scorned me sat up and took notice that there was indeed method in my madness.

You may have read the many attacks that classical homeopaths heaped upon me in the past few years on the homeopathic forums I visit daily, merely because they considered me a maverick who rocked their precious Classical Homeopathic boat too much. I believe that they did so because at least some discovered that my presence on their classical forums could corrupt the minds of potential classical homeopaths who were already in homeopathic colleges, as my therapy which treats the disease directly in the allopathic manner, seemed to be more effective than the standard classical method of identifying just one remedy which takes into account all the other symptoms presented by the patient. I do not wish to elaborate on this point as I have already dealt with it in other posts on the ABC. You may have observed that the attacks against my therapy invariably predicted doom to the unsuspecting patient who in many cases was confused as to which therapy he should use, which made a bad situation even worse as in some instances he would prefer the classical approach merely because the prescriber had the title Dr. before his ID. I have some cases where the patient used the classical therapy and returned to my therapy when he found that the classical approach was not helping him and discovered that my non classical therapy cured him in some cases, instantly.

I have always maintained that Homeopathy to me is only a Hobby to which I am passionately dedicated especially today, since I have some time at my disposal which some years ago I could not devote to homeopathy as my professional duties came first. The return of my sons after their post graduate studies in the US and joined the family business gave me this free time which I use today to help others and it gives me great satisfaction to help a patient which I have done free of charge, especially those who have run the gamut of specialist doctors, Ayurvedic physicians and then later classical homeopaths and finally they come to me here in Sri Lanka or visit a Homeopathic forum and I take over in my own direct way.

It seems such a shame that other homeopaths classical or otherwise do not also use the direct way that I prefer instead of going round in circles as they were taught in their respective collages to use only the classical system because Hahnemann had directed them to do so. Reference to his Organon will show that he too was constantly updating his therapy with every subsequent edition and I believe that what I am now trying to do is to continue in his footsteps by updating the concept of Homeopathy and to prove to those classical types that there is another way of helping a patient to overcome a disease by using the direct method that I have been using successfully for many years in spite of the conflagaration that it seems to have caused in homeopathic circles.

I observe today that there seems to be some semblance of a truce that has resulted between the classical types and their attacks against me as at least one of them has stated that as long as the therapy I use is termed “Joepathy” he does not have any reservations about my involvement in this art of healing.

I was also humbled to note the number of hits that this word “Joepathy” gets on the Search Engines, which is a fact that I was not aware of till Murthy drew my attention to it a short while ago. I hope that this can perhaps indicate that the rest of the world too is taking some notice of the therapy that I have always used successfully, which to me seems the obvious therapy that others too should use in helping a patient to overcome his ailment. It seems a happy coincidence that this fact was discussed today, a few days before my 77th Birthday.

When is your birthday?Please accept my most heartfelt best wishes on this great occasion for you and my family.I have nothing but admiration for your spirit of compassion and service towards fellow human beings.If even one tenth of the people of the world had the same compassion as you, this world would become so beautiful.

The reason for my starting this thread was very simple.I wanted to explain why these three remedies that you are so fond of, may be working in a number of cases that you have helped.

Though I do not share your views on the way the more well known official school of homeopathy is practised, I still respect you as a compassionate human being.

May God give you many, many, many more years of serviceful life!!May your ‘beloved’ Arnica keep working for you for ever.

With lots of best wishes,

Dear Kuldeep, from the assertions you have made above, I am afraid your observations are quite incorrect.

First of all, the only time the similium fails, is if it is indeed NOT the similium, and has been merely mistaken as such by the prescriber, or, if the patient is in need of the ISOmilium.

“If I can’t cure a patient I try to expose his body to strangest of the strangest materia. Could be Mercury or Antimony or Cyanide for him but not for all.”
Is this not what we all do, and the latter part of your assertion the whole basis of remedy individualization?

“We are already exposed to thousands of materia in varous potencies as pollution.”
We are? Please explain. I think you are confusing mere dilution with Homoeopathic potency.

“Graphites used to work as a great potent medicine about a hundred years ago but it does not work at all because it is a household material these days, our body is already exposed to it in all possible potencies -(again you are confusing mere dilution with potency)-, same thing is with petroleum…”
-Rereads- Erm, what? Have actually fully treated a chronic case before? An awful lot of the remedies required to affect cure, are those to which the patient has been exposed!
For example, I have had ex car mechanics who have been exposed to Petroleum all their lives, yet needed the substance in potency to relieve their conditions, the same I have found true of Kreosotum (in fence painters and gardeners), Chlorine in ex swimming pool attendants, Silicea in stone cutters (which is actually common knowledge, and listed in the majority of mat meds!), and even graphites in artists who use this substance to draw, myself being an example! I could go on with numerous examples. What about patients who have reacted badly to allopathic drugs, who require a potency of the offending substance? All these things are in our everyday environment, yet they do not affect everyone who merely comes into contact with them. Each individual will react differently to substances, and It matters not so much what we are exposed to, but what we are exposed to WHICH AFFECTS US as individuals, and when this is the case, only the Isomilium will cure, and this will occur regardless of continued exposure.

Your experiments therefore, I am afraid are quite flawed.

Dear Rajiv

I was born on October 19th 1929.

Thank you for your kind thoughts and you may like to know that I have dedicated the rest of my life to helping those who consult me with my own brand of Homeopathy which is now accepted as Joepathy.

I agree with you completely that if only others too are more caring in their daily lives the world would be a far better place to live in. It is unfortunate that in homeopathic circles there still exists that aura of exclusivity which is, I believe, the real reason why Homeopathy does not achieve the status that medicine enjoys today. I believe that the many critics that have voiced their opinions against my therapy have done so as they wish to keep this science at the higher levels that the successors of Hahnemann have elevated it to, with that aura of mystery that a homeopath usually commands from his patients which originates in the standard procedure involved in the classical case taking process. I do not write off this process but I maintain the the human mind cannot do justice to identifying that one remedy that will help the patient according to the tenets of classical homeopathy without the assistance of Homeopathic Software like Radar which I too use when necessary. I state this as the choice of this single remedy cannot possibly be identified from the many thousands that are available as the odds against the correct choice being made even by the most experienced homeopath are a million to one and cannot possibly be done mentally. This is where the software can be relied upon if the strict application of the classical theory has to be successfully implemented.

In my case I have evidence to prove that the majority of practicing homeopaths in the Indian sub continent use the same direct method that I too use to identify a remedy as it is absolutely impossible for those who see over 20 patients per day to spend at least an hour per patient with the classical system. The unfortunate result of the application of the classical system without the software is that the patient is usually given a remedy that suits his ‘picture’ and he goes back home in the fond hope that the remedy will help him at least in some small way and that when he reports back to the homeopath which is usually in a week that he would have some visible alleviation of his ailment. This is sadly not the case and many patients who have gone through this routine have informed me that in spite of the hour long interview that they had with their classical homeopath the remedy that they got did not have the slightest effect to help their ailment. In some instances I was informed that their ailment flared up and caused greater discomfort than what they already were suffering from. I have so many similar reports when these patients consulted me that I often wondered what the real reason was for these classical types to use a technique that they knew was faulty especially when dealing with the standard ailments that afflict people like GERD, Asthma, Eczema to name only 3 which I seem to have the gift of healing in a few days, or in the case of Asthma in a few hours. I realize that when a classical homeopath reads my viewpoint, he will immediately predict the usual doom and gloom scenario which the poor patient will, according to him, suffer from with a long time prediction of the possible results of consulting me, a non qualified homeopath, who has a background of using the direct approach in the alleviation of suffering. It is just my sense of directly approaching a problem in life coupled to my originality in doing so that has helped me to attain this status in my life and I believe in sharing my discoveries especially in homeopathy with others so that those who are not prejudiced will open their minds to the possibility of using a non classical alternative to the methods they use to cure their patients.

Dear Rajiv

I was born on October 19th 1929.

Thank you for your kind thoughts and you may like to know that I have dedicated the rest of my life to helping those who consult me with my own brand of Homeopathy which is now accepted as Joepathy.

Dear Rajiv Prasad

Graphites works only on low potency and diverts the problem elsewhere to more cureable dimension. In my own experience it never ever worked about 6x.

I have countless miracle stories abuot homemade graphites but none regarding homeopathy grade.

Same thing with Petroleum, it may work on tribals who are living days away from any road.

That’s why in my eczema thread I remommened a weekly course of 8 remedies including Graphites and Petroleum.

On the other hand Crank Case Oil turned out to be a very potent medicine, I request you to experiment with it. With that medicine many’s people’s asthma got diverted to eczema and eventually they may recover from it.

And second thing: It is not necessary thing I said today may be absolute truth, that’s how I see things today and tomorrow I may arrive at different conclusions.

I never ever recommended anybody to purchase and take homeopathy grade graphites because I believe it is wasting time, money and faith on a medicine.

ON the other hand homemade Graphites and Antimony works like magic and one sees the effect in hours.

How would this explain how I have cured/brought back to the surface many cases of eczema using both Graphites and Petroleum in potencies ranging from 6c right up to LM1 of the APPARENTLY ‘old’ variety?

Many of these remedy layers have been passed from generation to generation, hence the original source works just as well as any other.

If only a so called ‘modern’ preparation of a drug cures a patient, then it is by virtue of personal exposure, and of the other things which are now mixed with these substances ADDITIONALLY causing problems, and I would consider such an occurrence extremely rare, especially in view of the fact most of these aditives have no medicinal value.

The man who looks TOO deeply Mr Kuldeep, ends up seeing nothing.

Dear Kuldeep,

Of course i can understand about the personal experience point that you made.But then personal experience depends on so many factors and is purely ‘subjective’ to the ‘experiencer’.It is valuable no doubt to the person concerned.It is through personal experience that true learning takes place, and no amount of book learning can replace that.I really admire your willingness to share your wonderful experiences.Regarding the ‘personal truths’ being dynamic and not static; I again agree with you as I am very similar in my basic approach towards ‘truth’ as you.One should always be open to receive new infprmation and be bold enough to change one’s ‘truths’ even if it is on a public forum like this.I like your boldness too.

In my own experience the traditionally prepared Graphites and Petroleum, even in very high potencies right up to the CM potency work very well.I get my medicines from a pharmacy which i trust and their remedies (it includes all the more common homeopathic remedies) have never failed me.Where these two extremely deep acting and powerful remedies are needed, nothing can substitute them.Of course, in homeopathy, the ‘similimum’ would always cure.

I will try the motor crank oil remedy when i get a chance.I have read that thread of yours too.As i said earlier, i read all of your threads and am a regular visitor to your website too.As i said earlier, I like your innovativeness and willingnes to share your remarkable experiences.Hence I read carefully whatever you write about your ‘homeopathic experiences’.

With warm regards.

Hi Rajiv,
Great post.
Pl. read this …which I posted on another thread too….

————-
Here is the officially stated position of the British Homeopathic Association from their official website (FAQs).:

Quote

Should I stop my other medication?
No. Homeopathic remedies can be safely taken along with other medicines. It can be very dangerous to stop a medicine which you have been using for some time. The remedies will not interfere with your other drugs. You will be able to reduce your other drugs if you begin to improve under the influence of the homeopathic ones.

B A C K to list.

Why have I heard that some homeopaths tell their patients to stop their other drugs?
It is very unusual for a qualified health care professional to give such an instruction. Some non-medically qualified homeopaths have been known to give such advice and it stems from their distrust of mainstream medicine. The reason they will give is that some drugs can inhibit the effects of the homeopathic remedies. It is true that some drugs can produce such an inhibitory effect, particularly steroids and other drugs which suppress the immune system. However, experienced homeopathic practitioners will tell you that it is still possible to see the remedies produce good effects in the face of these drugs. Drugs should only be stopped when it is deemed they are no longer clinically necessary.

Unquote

When homeopathic meds can work even while allopathic meds are being given….surely 2/3 homeoapthic meds given in alteration/succesion or together (combination meds)..will also give results.

We have seen it happening.

Don’t know why…inspite of so much evidence…the classical homeopaths are making a “song and dance” of things.

I am pasting the same contents I posted at:
http://www.abchomeopathy.com/forum2.php/69933/1

I would like to share another story about this “Unqualified Homeopathy doctor who gave me the insight to treat tonsil stones”. In those days I was in India and he appeared at my door at mid-night and requested me to join him regarding an emergency.

He took me on his motorcycle in a poor neighborhood and there in a home a man with huge inflamed belly was lying, staring at the ceiling. Man was all blue-yellow. Whole room was stinking of bile. This is the standard practice in India that when a patient is about to die, hospitals reject him and send him home so a death would not be recoded in a hospital’s name.

That layman doctor asked me to help him, only thing he said to me to mark the approximate boundaries of his liver lobe on his tummy (like I am an expert). I did that (using my layman’s knowledge) and then he took out a thickest syringe and started pumping out green liquid from man’s liver (it was his first experience with the syringe but he was a bold courageous man) Whole crowd was watching us.

This layman doctor can’t not read English but can only read Punjabi so was unable to update his knowledge in human anatomy even in a layman’s terms. Only book he has a Boeirike’s translated Materia Medica.

He removed a gallon of liquid and then stared giving the patient a liquid of Naturm Sulphate. I left at morning and patient was a bit better and asked for some tea.

Today that patient is healthy and well.

I have some other stories about that unqualified doctor. He was the one who asked me to find Helix Hedera for a poor kid.

I never read theory behind homeopathy and never used a a medicine about 30c.

This year I chewed Rhus Tox several times and I thought I just don’t hurt me but then I discovered I was having eczema like symptoms on my eyelids, surface was raw for many months. So a proving waa made and used it on a person with eczema on his eyelids and miraculously person cured in two days.

Hi Pankaj

It is not a slipped out compliment.It is intentional and a fact.

This is the unfortunate situation. You people have grasped the matera medica very well ,but are failing in the administration and repetetion aspects, due to lack of proper understanding of the fundamentals.

Only if you people stick to the fundamentals of

1)Similar remedy

2)Single remedy

3)Minimum dose

4)Repetetion only when progress is halted

5)Selection of a new medicine if new symptoms show up

6)upping the potency ,in case symptoms return unchanged, and no new symptomsare added.

and similar other time tested princiles,you can do wonders.

My sincere request will be to read ‘Organon’ with an open mind, as if you knew nothing about homeopathy.

You will wonder why you missed it, all these years.

Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many cases From Joe De Livera on 2006-10-17
I would like to copy Rajiv’s analysis on how Arnica, which you may remember I have been using on a nightly basis for 11 years, has helped me.

I can confirm that it has not done me any harm so far and it is not likely to do so in the future. I am convinced that it has helped me to maintain my state of health at the level it is today. What is more, I have proved that when I stopped it for a few weeks, I felt distinctly old, which I will be at 77 years in a couple of days.

“Arnica, as everyone knows is the number one remedy for the shock of a trauma, whether the trauma is physical or mental.The reason is that it has a tendency to increase the flow of oxygen to the site of trauma.In case of physical trauma, to the site of injury, and in case of mental shock, to the affected part of the brain.That is why it is one of the leading remedies in the cases of brain haemorrhage too.Evn when a person is very fatigued after very severe hard work, a dose of Arnica brings a calming influence and takes away the fatigue due to increased oxygenation in the blood.What is happening in your case is that due to your old age (which causes poor oxygenation due to old age) and your hard working routine (which must be causing a lot of internal wear and tear at the cellular level), Arnica acts like a kind of ‘superficial similimum’ and tones you up so to speak ensuring nice sleep etc.Arnica is one of the main remedies that Dr.Parimal Banerjee (one of the greatest homeopaths that India has ever produced with the world record of having treated over 1.5 million people in his time) recommends for high blood pressure.The reason is again very simple to see.Arnica naturally pushes the blood flow, and causes the heart to relax a bit in confirmed cases of hypertension.In such cases, hypertension is the disease condition to which Arnica acts as a ‘superficial similimum’.In fact, your experiment on your own self has definitely encouraged me to conduct some experiments of my own.These experiments were inspired by you.My father-in-law was suffering from gangrene of his right toe, which was in danger of being amputated.I asked him to take the wet dose of Arnica 30 and to apply Arnica Q dilution externally.The condition was healed in two months.The reasonis simple enough.The Arnica caused the highly oxygenated blood to reach the gangrenous toe.So yes, your self proving of Arnica is valuable to the homeopathic community, but more care should be taken in prescribing.There should be circumstances calling for Arnica, rather than prescribing it left, right and center to all comers.Even young people.That could cause a proving. ”

This example may serve to negate the theory expressed above.

Hi Joe

Arnica is a very short acting remedy, and hence might not have posed any problems for you.

By the time you are taking your second dose, the first one’s action might have been completed already.

What we are telling is that the previous action of the medicine is to be allowed to be completed,before repeating it.

Medicines like Sulphur act even upto 60 days. I get benefit from Petroleum only after the first week.

Don’t generalise things, and try to cite your experience with Arnica in each and every thread.

I again repeat, what works for Joe, need not work for the billions of people on the earth.

Hi Murthy

Please do not get me wrong. I would never advocate that deep acting remedies like Sulphur should ever be used in the manner that I am using Arnica. It is just that I felt that Arnica should not fall within the remedies that you had in mind in your post that I mentioned it in my post above.

As for my prescribing Arnica “right left and center” I can assure you that I do not do so except in the many cases that I have discovered that it helps where the other standard remedies do not. I have only prescribed for helping with acne in the case of teenagers.

You are invited to visit a thread on Arnica which I posted some time ago where you will see that I have used it to help in some unusual cases where it has never been used before:

Hi Murthy !
I am referring to the post you have addressed to me today.

My comments:

You and Rajiv were repeatedly asking me about the books I was using as reference. I just gave you both one name…of DR.V.R.BAJAJ and R.K.TANDON.
(Homeopathic Guide to Family Health)….to see a sample of the comments you both would come out with.

May I inform you…that book devotes a whole chapter to the life and work of Dr. Samuel Hahnemann.

That book has a whole Chapter on “Organon of Medicine” by “Dr. Samuel Hahnemann”.

In its chapter on Selection of Remedy …the authors have reproduced Section 83 to 90 of the Organon.

Frankly, I was be-numbed on reading yours and Rajiv’s unpleasant comments (putting it mildly) on that book.

That book is with me since 1992.

Are you assuming that from 1992 to 2006…I wouldn’t have read anything about or from the Organon ???

(If just had that limited info about me).

I am again and again stating that your system and my system are different. And the choice was made after “looking at the other side also”. I found my system more effective.

In that debate I made very important points that are relevant to the growth and acceptance of homeopathy by a larger number of people in the world compared to the acceptability it has today.

Those comments were made in great seriousness and as they have been there in my thoughts for a long time.
(Like the need for an instrument and a unit for measuring the strength of the “Vital Force”).

They relate to observations for the future growth of homeopathy…things that are yet to be discoverd (looking beyond the wall).

My request to you, Rajiv and Jacob is to make considered remarks and not abrupt remarks.

I did not make any abrupt remark about you.Go back to that thread and see all the posts in sequence.You called me a ‘television reporter” and i kept showing respect to you.I appreciated your knowledge of the materia medica.Next day, i woke up in the morning and when checked this forum page, i saw your aggressive tone and then you derogated me by calling ‘kid’ etc.I returned the compliment.But in the end i apologised to you for being elder to me.Still i can see that you refuse to tone down your aggresiion.

Can you show me one abrupt remark that i made?That is not the way i am.

If you are thorough with the Organon, good for you.But i can only discuss within the framework of what portion of your knowledge you display through your posts.If you choose to protect your ‘brand equity’ and still call something hidden from the world as ‘my system’, what can one make of it?How can a brand have brand equity when what that brand represents is lost upon everyone.If you indeed have a system of homeopathy that you have developed, please write a book and share with the world.Then one can discuss the merits and demerits of that book.But then, a system also has a philosophy behind it, the need for such a system, a proper explanation why the author considers the old system or systems to be a failure and so on.You believe in multiple remedies at the same time.Fine.But what is the philosophy behind it?How do they work?Explain in great detail to the world.If you feel your ‘brand equity’ will be eroded, then write a book.It will compensate you financially for the information that you shared with the world apart from bringing name and recognition from other homeopaths.But in the absence of a detailed explanation of ‘your system’, do not claim abut it.

I do not have any personal system.I follow the great masters of homeopathy and learn humbly at their feet.I also learn from other fellow homeopaths and their experiences.

I am again pasting the relevant portion to which i had just referred in my last post on this thread which you had written in my ‘honour’ a few days ago:

“I can now understand some of your bitterness…which stems out of your illness.

I wish you “Get Well” and send you a bouquet of roses just like Munna Bhai did to Lucky Singh …in Munna Bhai Lage Rahoo.

Pankaj Varma

For those who don’t understand Hindi:

Muna Bhai Lage Rahoo ….literal meaning…Kid Brother! keep persisting !

Hidden meaning…..Kid Brother ! I may not agree with you ..but I admire your preseverence!”

You made a blanket statement that my ‘bitterness’ (only you could see bitterness in my open appreciation of your knowledge of materia medica) stems from my ‘illness’.What a summary conclusion?How did you know that i am still very ill?While you were busy seeing the ‘bitterness’ in me, praises kept pouring on me for my loving and compassionate nature.

How can the correct translation of ‘Munna Bhai’ be ‘kid brother’?It will be ‘Brother Munna’.If your real intention is only to render an accurate translation, then what was the need to give your hidden (which was openly mentioned) message which was as follows:

“Hidden meaning…..Kid Brother ! I may not agree with you ..but I admire your preseverence!”

I took it as a slight as it is very clear to anyone who has a little knowledge of the English language.So i returned the compliment in a like manner.

This was just to keep the matters straight and to sort it out between you and me.

Organon is not only about selection of remedy.

It looks to me you read it in bits and pieces.My advice is to read it from cover to cover in one sitting, when your mind is fresh. It may take a couple of hours, but it is worth it.

Coming to the nature of your comments, you have a tendency to hit below the belt.

Your comment on Rajiv’s illness is in very poor taste, and it is natural that one reacts strongly,if a reveletion of previous illness, for the sake of discussion, is used to settle scores.

Please understand it.

Murthy Report post to moderator Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many casesFrom sazim on 2006-10-17Dear Pankaj and Kuldeep, Jacob and Murthy

Homeopathy is an ever expanding science bordering on paraphysics (where matter equals energy), and is a much much advanced system to cure diseases. Allopaths and hard core scientists are still scratching their head about its functionality, so debating about the classical and neoclassical ways of practicing homeopathy wont yield results on this
forum.

I totally agree with Jacob and Murthy, that you cannot go against the basic principles of homeopathy as envisaged by the great Hahnemann. Hahnemannic homeopathy has some basic principles, which if avoided, would put you in such a peril, that you would be completely lost. To cure completely is to follow Hahnemannic homeopathy, but that doesn’t stop anyone to improve the basic principles as well.

Einstein proved that nothing can exceed the speed of light within the laws of known physics, but that law is based on the assumption that you are travelling from point “A” to point “B”. Interestingly if you change the assumption, that is instead of going from point “A” to point “B”, let point “B” come close to point “A” (through molding of space), you will break the basic law of physics. (travelling more than the speed of light)

What I am trying to say is, that Hahnemann is not the final word on homeopathy, he was a great revolutionary who showed us what homeopathy is, and how miraculous it can be, but its upto the scientist/doctors of today and tomorrow, who will make great strides into this remarkable gift which our creator has bestowed on us.

You are right. The development shouldn’t stop and it didn’t stop.

For example Hahn. was not in favor of nosodes. But, you hardly find a classical homeopath who doesn’t use them.

Hahn. was highly critical of coffee. Now,many homeopaths feel his views on coffee are not very accurate, and coffee is to be avoided only if the person is addicted to it.

However, the fundamentals of homeopathy remain the same.

As Kent said, “when Homoeopathy is hundreds of years old, our successors will acquire knowledge that we do not possess now.”
A quote I have always used to defend my own further elaborations and theories based on true doctrine, when these are attacked by others.

It just requires a very good knowledge of the subject to realise what really IS new theory and advancement based on this doctrine, and what is harmful deviation and useless theory.

Edit Post Report post to moderator Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many casesFrom Joe De Livera on 2006-10-17It is remarkable how you descended from Hpathy.com to the ABC a few days ago and proceeded immediately to display your high faluting concept of what to you, is classical homeopathy by keeping on criticizing me and others who have been on this forum for many years and who have spent a lot of time in our dedicated efforts in helping those who post on this forum.

It is a matter of interest to me and to other members of this forum that you have not tried to help by prescribing any remedies to those who post here in the hope of a cure. I would suggest that you put your money where your mouth is and show the resident patients and prescribers here how you would treat an ailment instead of causing so much unnecessary friction by insisting on your own concept of classical homeopathy with your abrasive comments which only serves to disturb the peace and love that this forum was noted for till you invaded it after an absence of many years.

I would like to add that my patients whom I have helped with my own concept of Homeopathy think otherwise. I copy below an example:

re: anal fistula- fissure From overanxious on 2006-10-17
Dearest Jo what an Angel you are!…

I have had the Doc look at me today.. The cut is there and it does keep opening with little blood every two or three weeks. “No fissure” “No Fistula” Dry and External Hemroids with its accompanying little hole.. I have ordrered all I need Homeopathically and the Doctor has given me the Antibiotic Ointment for when and if the hole does open up again. I have lost another 3 kg in weight this week. I have gone from being morbidly obese to obese.. heading for just FAT now (Chuckles)

I thank you from the center of my being

re: anal fistula- fissure From Joe De Livera on 2006-10-17
You embarass me with your comments !

I am glad that your doctor reassured you that all is well and the best news is that he gave you that much needed prescription for the Antibiotic ointment which is an essential part of this therapy. Use it liberally to ensure that the lesion is permitted to heal without the bacteria.

Keep on with the Arnica but if you do not have any pus discharge, you can drop the Silicea.

Keep us posted with the progress of your lesion which I feel will quickly heal. Edit Post Report post to moderator Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many casesFrom bandarbabu2000 on 2006-10-17Dear Joe

You are mistaken that I shy off from prescribing here.

I did so,and got good feedback, even very recently.

See the Nux.Vomica thread.

I will not prescrinbe like you guys at the drop of a hat.

Rajiv and Jacob have already started prescribing here.

I too will do so, when time permits.

But,primarily, I took it upon myself to expose all this pseudo homeopathy.

Unless and until the moderator feels that I am doing a disservice to the patients here, I will continue, in exposing these reckless prescriptions.

I want ABC too to be known as a good homeopathic forum.

Murthy Report post to moderator Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many casesFrom bandarbabu2000 on 2006-10-17Hi Joe

See the Asthma topic .fauzia now comes out with the truth.

Your Nat.sulph therapy did aggravate her daughter.

Now, what do you say?

Murthy Report post to moderator Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many casesFrom kuldeep on 2006-10-17If there is a motive to find a fault, it is always present. Report post to moderator Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many casesFrom Joe De Livera on 2006-10-17To Murthy

I am copying below the first post of Fauzia the mother dated May 5 2006 who describes the pathetic condition of her daughter who was a chronic Asthmatic from the age of 1 year. She was on inhalers which she had to use merely to survive right up to the time that I took her case last May and she has been off inhalers for most of the time except when Fauzia panics and either rushes her to the doctor or gives her a puff which is very rarely today.

I am satisfied that the Nat Sulph has helped her as it was prescribed by me, first in the wet dose and then in the split dose but there is nothing that I can do to increase her resistance to URT infections which have invariably brought on an attack of her asthma. This cannot however be adduced to the Nat Sulph merely because the mother panics like she did with her croup which you will note did not bring on her asthma.

I have prescribed Ars Alb 200 to be used whenever she has an attack and cannot breathe and I cannot understand the reason why she does not follow my instructions.

I am considering changing the remedy to Blatta Orientalis 6c to be used in the same manner as the Nat Sulph as I too agree that the Nat Sulph may have reached the end of its ability to help her.

I do wish that I was able to cure the daughter’s Asthma as I have done in the case of many other patients but this case seems to be more difficult than others that have responded and are cured as they do not use any remedy any more.

It will be appreciated that the mere fact that one case does not respond in the manner that others have done cannot be shown up as the general rule with the therapies that I have used to cure over 3000 patients on this forum which can be read if you have the patience to do so in the archives where I have over 4500 posts recorded.

I have in another post requested you to “put your money where your mouth is” and prescribe a remedy to help the patients on the ABC instead of invariably criticizing me and others on this forum.

You are invited to do so and join me in helping to resolve this case. All I am interested in is to see Fauzia’s daughter is healed and our joint efforts may succeed where my sole effort has not met with the success that I expected.

The reason being, that there is no standardised cure for asthma, or any other complaint. Each case is to itself unique, and as stated eleswhere, such cases can only actually be termed CURED, by proper follow up, performed by a practitioner with knowledge of what to look for in terms of signs of supression.

No, it does not, because you sir, do not follow Hahanemann. You merely pick and choose certain assertions he has made to justify your own methods. You would be well advised to actually sit down and read the Organon cover to cover, maybe then you will realise exactly what he would have thought, and indeed DID think of such methods as your own.

Report post to moderator Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many casesFrom ripas on 2006-10-18In the raging debate of classical homeopathy v. ‘mixopathy’ or ‘anything goes-pathy’, lets consider this.
Homeopaths who follow the elementary rules at least have a basis for this: they have the theory and the rationale behind why homeopathy works.
If we are to accept or even stop opposing ‘mixopathy’ and its sibling ‘thisforthatpathy’, lets have the promoters and the supporters propound their theory. Every school of medicine has its foundations in certain beliefs. Medical advice, after all, impacts people’s quality of life in the long run, especially if repeated mis-prescriptions are made. I would let go – for now – the acute prescribing that is done on few facts and no knowledge of the patient. Hopefully, an acute condition will limit itself before too much harm is done. It is the chronic prescribing or long-term advice (like the ridiculous arnica-every-night — I wonder, if someone starts with arnica 30, succussed and plussed for 8 years, what potency is it now?) that is so worrisome. Even more worrisome is that there are those who refuse to realize or acknowledge this fact.
So please do tell us – what is the basis for mixopathy or joepathy? What theory rules? Can I take a guess? The same theory behind allopathy?
I am thankful that there are finally a few voices here initiating a debate – thank you, Jacob, Murthy, Rajiv Prasad. It is an old trick to insult, deride and make personal attacks when the ones questioned do not have real answers. far easier to scoff at the people and call their very valid inquiries garbage and rubbish rather than stop to think that the motives of the questioners are not to deride the prescribers (not to begin with – but if someone keeps attacking, a person will either retire in disgust or fight back. The first option gives the attacker the illusion of victory; the second invites insinuation that the defence is somehow unwarranted!) but solely from concern for the system we know can do so much if only it’s not misused.
And finally, I think Pankaj asked somewhere how come if the classical homeopaths were right that Joe is still going strong after years of arnica. How do you know? How do you know the state of Joe’s internal health? How do you know that there has not been any alteration that is undiscernable to him – maybe he was less stubborn and had the humility to learn before? How do you know his wife hasn’t poured out his arnica and replaced it with water? How do you know that arnica did not stop its action long ago and its is only Joe’s mind providing a placebo effect? Or maybe Joe is a unique case? Report post to moderator Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many casesFrom Nesha-India on 2006-10-18Joepathy = A.D.D.

Remain Healthy & Happy ……. Nesha-India Report post to moderator Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many casesFrom Joe De Livera on 2006-10-18To Ripas,

If you are really interested in investigating my attitude to Homeopathy I would request you to visit my post entitled “In defense of my attitude towards Homeopathy” which strangely enough was addressed to you and which you can find if you do a search under this same title on the ABC. I shall copy it below but after I have replied some salient facts that you have questioned which I feel I must reply to first.

The post that is dated July 21 2006 addressed to you gives you almost all the answers that you have posed in your post above but I shall pick out a few matters from it to give you short answers to them for purposes of clarification as requested by you.

I have always refused to accept the classical theory that remedies must never be given on a daily basis. I do agree that ALL remedies cannot be given in this manner but I have no hesitation in using Arnica 30c in the wet dose (or the dry dose in pellets) on a daily basis. I have used this remedy myself for the last 11 years and I can assure you that if I stop the daily dosage for about 3 weeks I will find that my years hang on me and my BP also shoots up by about 10mm on both Systolic and Diastolic levels. My pulse also goes up to around 90 at rest. FYI my BP today is 117/76 with pulse 63 checked a short while ago. If as you fear I was to suffer under the standard warnings given by only classical homeopaths about the repetitive use of Homeopathic remedies like Arnica, I would not be writing this reply to you right now.

I note your concern about my using just plain water instead of the remedy nightly but right now I am using 3 No 30 pellets of the remedy that I have made in common with all remedies as I get the liquid remedy in ethanol and activate the lactose pellets myself. There is absolutely no possibility whatever of anyone interfering with my Arnica which is today the only remedy that I take daily.

I do admit that it may seem strange that I have a penchant for Arnica and for Nat Phos and the reason why I use these remedies so often is because I have discovered that the majority of cases that I handle on the forums have benefitted by them. You can read the research that I have done on Arnica by doing a search for “Arnica the miracle remedy” and you may be surprised that I have listed many more ailments that this amazing remedy can be used for which are not listed in the MM’s. As for Nat Phos I have used it extensively for GERD related ailments and it has worked in the majority of cases if they were caused by hyperacidity with some being relieved in a few minutes after taking this remedy.

I believe that the reason that the majority of classical homeopaths use this long drawn out case taking procedure is because they wish to ensure that the patient is suitably impressed by their exclusive prowess which eventually results in a single remedy which usually does not give the patient, say in a GERD case, the relief that he wants ASAP. This also ensures that the patient has to return to the homeopath on a weekly basis to be given the next remedy and all visits are not free. I have had many patients who have been fooled by their homeopaths for some months who posted their ailment on this forum and in the case of GERD type ailments I invariably have prescribed Nat Phos 6x and the patient reports almost instant relief and usually is cured in a few months of this daily routine.

The point that I wish to make is that while classical homeopathy may have its uses in the hands of experts in the science like Dr Luc de Schepper whose name is mentioned on the opening page of this forum today and whom I know personally as he was here with me shortly after the Tsunami in Sri Lanka, and others of his caliber, the average homeopaths especially those who practice in the Indian Subcontinent who have over 25 patients on a daily basis, cannot possibly pretend to use the classical system as the time they will have to expend on each patient will make it impossible for them to see the over 100 patients they treat on a daily basis. I can vouch for the fact that this is the standard form adopted in Sri Lanka by the homeopaths whom I have discussed this matter with and I am also assured by my friends in India and Pakistan that this is indeed the norm except of course in the case of the few classical homeopaths who are exclusive and of course expensive to consult. I do not blame these classical types for using their skills in the manner that they were commanded to do by their superiors also of the classical school but I reserve the right not to follow their example simply because my ‘thisforthatpathy’ now also known as ‘Joepathy’, seems to have stuck as it has been picked up by the Search Engines, which is a fact that I was not aware of till a few days ago.

I have proved that there is no danger of the remedies that I use generally do not constitute any hazard when prescribed in the manner that I use them. They have invariably served to help the patients who have used them and you can refer to the comments of patients who have benefitted from my treatment. It is interesting to record that some patients were at first suspicious of my non classical ideology and preferred to use the remedies prescribed by classical homeopaths with no positive response. This was the case of an asthmatic boy whose mother did not use the Nat Sulph therapy that I use extensively for Asthma and when she discovered that the remedies that a classical homeopath did not help him she gingerly gave him just 1 teaspoonful of Nat Sulph 6c and within a few hours he was asleep without the usual congestion in his lungs which had been treated for many years with steroids and later with classical remedies and finally with the Nat Sulph. He is, I believe, still on a split dose of this remedy as the mother has not posted any news for some months.

As you may know, I am not a professional homeopath and only use my skills free of charge to help anyone who consults me in Colombo and on the forums. I have sufficient confidence in my own Joepathy to be able to help anyone and if I am not certain of my ability to do so, I always refer them to others who may be able to help. I believe that my attitude to homeopathy has been felt in classical circles as I have recently been the target of many classical homeopaths who have attacked me with unusual ferocity which I presume they have leveled at me because I have rocked their precious homeopathic boat just a little too much. As far as I am concerned I shall continue to use my skill in the manner that I have done so far and you are invited to read the many tributes from grateful patients who have been at least helped and many who have been cured by me.

I believe that it is time for the classical types to also help the patients who post on this forum instead of compelling me to waste my time in responding as I am now doing to their attacks as their attitude is not designed to promote the science that they have spent a lot of time in acquiring but prefer to use to deride my efforts to help others in the manner that I have done for many years, with outstanding results as evidenced on the ABC.

In defence of my attitude to Homeopathy From Joe De Livera on 2006-07-21
Dear Mr Ripas,

I note that you are responding to a post that I made on July 12 in response to yours of the same date.

From the general trend of your argument I believe that it is my direct treatment of the ailment that you seem to resent, perhaps because you have seen that many patients whom I have responded to on this forum have confirmed that they have been helped and in many instances cured. This routine of cures does not only pertain to Asthma and I must admit that I used the direct allopathic method in prescribing the remedy with the success that you can read about on the respective threads.

I am amazed at the reasons that classical homeopaths like you can offer and I can see that you are only interested in defending the classical attitude to homeopathy which I too resort to with my Radar software if I am not familiar with the ailment or the response from the patient to the remedy that I prescribe has not been satisfactory, which occurs very rarely.

I do not object to classical homeopaths using their classical knowledge in treating any ailment. I do resent however when these classical types go to the level that Dinesh Sharma went to yesterday to attack me in his uncontrolled fit of rage which is only too transparent on the ABC which you can read on:

http://www.abchomeopathy.com/forum2.php/67963/1

I shall copy my response below and this will also answer some of your own reservations on the direct method that I use to prescribe any remedy to my patients. It must be borne in mind that in the case of these patients, the resultant effect which leads to a cure has almost always been positive. There have been absolutely no instances of any remedy that I prescribed causing any form of distress or aggravation.

Re: Gastric Problem.
From Joe De Livera
on 2006-07-20
To Dinesh Sharma

I was appalled to note that you had addressed your post to me personally and deliberately repeated it 3 times over which I believe you did in a fit of anger as a result of my commenting on your prescribing what you fondly believed was your “classical constitutional remedy” to relieve the patient’s obvious distress from hyperacidity which sadly did not have the slightest effect in helping him for a whole month but only resulted in a serious aggravation of his condition when he was under your supervision.

I believe that types like you who are so obsessed with your own importance which you have assumed as a result of your obtaining your diploma in Homeopathy should stop to consider that the primary reason for your spending a few years in the study of this precious science is to heal suffering humanity. It is only when people like you are forced to accept that the remedy that your classical training has taught you to prescribe which did not have the slightest effect in helping the suffering patient but instead had aggravated his condition to a degree that he was so obviously suffering from it, that you explode and then proceed to insult me and command me in UPPER CASE to “MIND YOUR WORDS” or in other words to SHUT UP.

I regret that I cannot oblige you by doing so as I strongly feel that types like you and a few others who play around with the lives of those who visit this forum in the manner that you have done for Bodapathi should be compelled to tender an apology to him for the damage that you have done to him by making his complaint which I believe is GERD infinitely worse during the last month. It is important that those who visit this forum should know the real person you are — haughty, self opinionated, and obsessed with your own interpretation of what you feel is Homeopathy which has done irreparable damage to at least one member.

I believe that what you need is the humility to accept that you have made a serious error in your prescription of Lycopodium 200 and to bow out gracefully from the thread and thereby permit others who are able to help, to do so in peace without having to waste time in resorting to this form of defense in replying to your tirade as I am now doing right now. In spite of the constraints of time that this form of defense involves I still felt that I should give you some food for thought to teach you how to prescribe at least in the future.

You will have observed that none of us who have been advisors on the ABC for many years and long before you even knew its existence and joined it, have upbraided or criticized you directly when we had reason to do so in previous lapses on your part. I do remember a previous instance when I had to advise you in a case similar to the present and you undertook to behave in a more acceptable manner.

It is the sheer arrogance that you displayed in your tirade that I find objectionable when you state:
“I tried to help him and infcat if you can read earlier post Lycopodium had helped him.But to change constitution requires time but you can not understand all this stuff as your are not a Homeopath”.
As far as I are aware Bodapathy did not show any positive response to your constitutional remedy Lycopodium 200 which sadly backfired on him and you were directly responsible to help him when he pleaded that it was not helping him when you insisted that it must help him perhaps because you had prescribed it and you were of course the last word in Homeopathy ! You then proceed to insult me with your broken Indian English stating that ” you can not understand all this stuff as your are not a Homeopath”.

You must understant that if you persist in maintaining this arrogant attitude you may risk the wrath of other members and the management and may be banned from this forum permanently.

Bodapathi has decided to consult a Gastroenteriologist as the agony that you have caused him is too much for him to suffer. In doing so he will obviously be following his path to disaster as the specialist will no doubt prescribe the standard drugs used in medicine that inhibit the production of acid like Nexium, Prilosec to name only two which will only serve to palliate his ailment and will continue to send him on the path to GERD from which a return is extremely difficult as you can read from the experience of others who have been rescued even on this thread.

You must remember that it does not take that piece of paper which I presume you possess, which you like to flaunt to the other members of this forum with your title of “Dr” which you have used as a prefix to your name, to enable those who practice Homeopathy to help members who post their ailments. It is more the dedication of the prescriber to this science and the experience that he has accumulated throughout the past years that is important and not the careless attitude that you and many others in your profession cultivate when they discover after a few years in practice that they can safely assume the status of a petty god over their patients. You have only to read the post above from Pat to appreciate the level that some homeopaths descend to, merely to maintain that haughty devil may care attitude at the expense of the poor suffering patient. I am aware of some who deliberately do so in order to ensure that the patient has no alternative but to visit them even weekly to obtain relief from their ailment which could have been cured with perhaps a single remedy in a single consultation.

As you probably know, I have been deeply involved in this science since 1970 and after a period of study it is now my hobby which I practice free of charge both privately in Sri Lanka and on the ABC as I feel a deep sense of satisfaction to help in the alleviation of human suffering in my own way which you may have read in other threads on the ABC. Some of these cures have been commented upon by grateful patients as being miraculous.

I do hope that you will not repeat your hypercritical arrogant attitude as evidenced in your last post which you have repeated 3 times over and that you will not interfere in future with my sincere attempts to help in the alleviation of human suffering.

Joe De Livera

If as I presume you are a qualified classical homeopath who insists only on working within the narrow confines of the classical method that you have been inculcated into accepting during your studies, I would suggest that you spend some time on this forum which as you will see is easily the most prolific of Homeopathic forums in the world and is used by over 50 patients to post their ailment daily seeking a cure. I presume that many hundreds, perhaps many thousands of visitors also frequent it as they obviously can find matters of health discussed in it which may be of interest to themselves.

I would recommend that you use your time more fruitfully by helping to cure human ailments posted by patients on this forum rather than just picking on dedicated Homeopaths like me and force me to use my time to defend my attitude to Homeopathy which has invariably resulted in a cure in comparison to the cures that are achieved by the classical types whose antics are only too transparent on this forum.

Answering the matters that you have discussed in your post, I too agree that a virus cannot affect anyone for 2 weeks. We are however presuming that Fauzia’s children were affected for this length of time, which you will read from her response was not the case. She indicated that after she had her children’s throat swabs analyzed it was discovered that they were in fact infected by the Beta Haemolyticus Streptococcus for which the required antibiotic was used and she later confirmed that both her children were cured of the infection. Their Asthma was also being controlled by the Nat Sulph.

I would like to comment on your mention of the other remedies some of which I too have used in the cure of Asthma:

You state:
” The removal of suffering, as in asthma, is by itself a big achievemnet, but it is not a cure. I use Aconite 6 or /and Ipecac 6 or Blatta O 6, and a host of remedies from Arsenic and Carbo Veg to Nat Sulph- and others, but among these, Aconite, for instance, willnot be curative. Blatta 6 will have to be given in high potency in between – if it is the matching remedy. However, like your nat Sulph prescription, by and large Aco and Ipecac relieve the symptoms. ”

I have used Blattta Orientalis but in 30c potency in the dry dose for the treatment of Asthma in the case of a professor of Physics in our university in the hills in Sri Lanka. He stated that he was OK at sea level in Colombo but that when he went to his university located in Kandy that he often was unable to breathe. Blatta O fixed his problem and it did that permanently about 2 years ago and he can be considered fully cured. I have used Ipecac for a patient who was on Nat S but had a persistent cough which was resolved by the remedy.

I have recommended the use of Ars Alb 200 in the dry dose when the patient is unable to breathe when he would reach for his Inhaler. FYI I have noticed that within about 20 minutes the patient who is gasping for breath, is able to breathe without any discomfort. I have not however used Carbo Veg and Aconite and would not like to do so as I only prescribe remedies that I have used myself, or in this case as I am not an Asthmatic, remedies that I have discovered evoke a positive response from the patient.

You may like to know that almost all cases of Asthma that I have treated have responded positively to Nat Sulph 6c in the wet dose and later the split dose which I use after about a month on the remedy direct from the bottle.

You state:
“When a palliative remedy is used, leave aside the usual concerns of what other effects it might have, the thing is that a closely matched remedy which might cure is ignored. The principle of a doctor or practitioner is to heal. To heal you need to know all you can about the system you are using, its theory, its tools – all the remedies. I am not against you because you are a lay practitioner. I am against your practice of not attending to the principles because you have found what you think of as success and don’t care to rock the boat except in defiance of what you think are a bunch of fuddy-duddies raining on your parade. ”

I do not agree with you that the remedies that I use are only “palliative”. It just depends on how you choose to interpret “cure”. If it is permanent it can be considered a cure but otherwise it is palliative. In the case of Asthma the cure especially in the case of chronic cases is sometimes long drawn out and may take some months. The healing process continues throughout the period the patient sips the one teaspoonful of the remedy daily and this is a far cry from the tablets and inhalers usually multiple inhalers all of which are loaded with all the choice steroids that the patient has been used to using for a lifetime.

A teaspoonful of NS does not in any way harm the patient and even I, after so many cases of successfully resolving cases of chronic Asthma, often wonder how this minuscule dose of this chemical Sodium Sulphate also known as Glauber’s Salt can possibly have this beneficial effect on a patient who was as I stated has been an asthmatic during most of his life.

I do not agree that I as a lay practitioner must know ALL about the remedies I use which are the standard remedies that anyone can get from a pharmacy. It would be quite impossible for me to study ALL about the ailments that I prescribe for. I believe that it is that streak of originality that I seem to have been born with that makes me deviate from your obvious classical outlook which has resulted in my identifying many remedies in the classical Homeopathic texts for ailments that are not listed in them . If as you state you have read some others of my post on this forum you may have noticed that I have responded to the majority of the posts that patients have made and it would be safe to presume that the real reason for my success is that patients seem to appreciate my methodology in helping them as I believe that they have realized that they have resulted in more cures than those that the classical homeopaths have offered in terms of constitutional remedies and other experimental use of remedies which in a recent case was carried on for over a month when the patient was virtually screaming in agony while this homeopath continued to insist that the aggravation was part of the curative process, which in this case seemed to be unending. As you may have read the patient decided to seek an allopathic cure in sheer disgust at the homeopathic aggravation.

It is also a shame that some of these classical homeopaths use this forum to drum up business for themselves by contacting the patients directly. Their modus operandi is to pose a questionnaire to the patient within a few minutes of the original post and when the patient responds the reply from the homeopath is often delayed. Excuses are made that the ailment is under consideration as the selection of the remedy usually takes time. The patient in the meanwhile is desperate for a remedy as his ailment is causing him distress and then contacts the homeopath directly who states that the curative process will take a few months and offers to look after the patient for a handsome fee which has to be paid for the first consultation and a monthly fee to be paid for a year or more depending on the severity of the patient’s ailment.

Some of these patients have contacted me and a few of them have even copied the original emails of these homeopaths. I also have evidence of the direct approach to the patient from the homeopath with the offer to help for a fee. This ploy is resorted to when the patient does not have his email address in his profile when the homeopath requests the patient to send him photographs of the ailment to enable him to treat it better and thereby obtains his email address. It is a matter of some concern to all of us who treat anyone for the joy it gives us to see a patient cured which in my opinion is far greater than the money that others who practice for a fee professionally derive from curing someone in distress.

You state:
“I am against your practice of not attending to the principles because you have found what you think of as success and don’t care to rock the boat except in defiance of what you think are a bunch of fuddy-duddies raining on your parade.
I earnestly request you to please take some time to study, to use the repertory and, since you have the time and the inclination, to serve better.
It is not my intention to offend or put you down. I give you credit for trying, but you are not optimizing.”

As no doubt you are aware, I practice my own version of Homeopathy which has been recently branded “Joepathy”, I am convinced that my method is more direct and is less hazardous to the patient and what is most important, it results in a cure.

All I ask of you classical homeopaths is to permit me to continue with my mission of healing in the manner I choose which I feel is best for the patient. You are aware that this is a forum which is open to anyone who would like to voice an opinion and I would welcome any constructive opinions instead of the destructive insults that I have often had to suffer in the past (this does not include you) on this and other forums dedicated to Homeopathy.

In conclusion I would like to refer you to the first 2 Aphorisms of the founder of Homeopathy which I shall quote below:

? 1
The physician’s high and only mission is to restore the sick to health, to cure, as it is termed

? 2
The highest ideal of cure is rapid, gentle and permanent restoration of the health, or removal and annihilation of the disease in its whole extent, in the shortest, most reliable, and most harmless way, on easily comprehensible principles.

The mere fact that I have to brave the criticism from people like you and even insults from others who pose as classical homeopaths shall not and will not make me deviate from the manner that I believe I am correct in following.

I shall end this essay with a quotation from Arthur Schopenhauer

All truth passes through three stages.
First, it is ridiculed.
Second, it is violently opposed.
Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
— Arthur Schopenhauer —

Best wishes for the success of ‘Joepathy’.

Since it is recognised even by the search engines as a different therapy,why all this comparision with classical homeopathy?

Your therapy has all the rules framed by you,practiced by you.

For the time being you are the only one practicing it.May your tribe increase.

Remain Healthy & Happy ……. Nesha-India Report post to moderator Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many casesFrom Joe De Livera on 2006-10-18Dear Murthy

Thank you for your kind thoughts even though I seem to detect that undercurrent of sarcasm in them.

Please note that I was not responsible for the term Joepathy and I was quite surprised when someone pointed it out to me and I was intrigued that it had been picked up by the Search Engines, perhaps because they have also followed my outspoken attitude to that holy cow Classical Homeopathy. I have no qualms in using my own Joepathy as I have used some remedies in a manner that they have never been recorded for in the texts. The point that I wish to make is that if one discovers a remedy will help some ailment like for instance Arnica helps so many including Diabetes, why should not this remedy be also used by others ? I have records of many patients who were chronic Diabetics who were using the standard drugs to overcome their ailment and after I put them on Arnica and Cinnamon, they discovered that they were suddenly free of their Diabetes. They have all been warned that they will have to take Arnica 30c for the rest of their lives in a dosage of 1 teaspoonful twice daily and I do not see any aggravation or other damage that has been predicted by you and others that has resulted in their use of these 2 remedies, which is far less damaging to their bodies than the drugs that they were using, in some cases for many years. You may like to know that Arnica helps both Type I and Type II Diabetics.

The main point to be considered in my use of remedies in the manner that I do, is that they have invariably helped the patients who use them. You have the possibility of reading the records of successful cures in the archives of this forum. You will appreciate that this is a public forum open to the eyes of the world and many thousands may read about the goings on, on the ABC and the manner that I have been attacked for standing up to the classical onslaught, I hope successfully.

You must realize that these constant attacks leveled against me by you and others of your ilk will only increase my exposure more and I hope that in your own interest you will keep your attacks down, or at least modulate them, in your own classical interest.

It is obvious that the more you attack me the more people will wish to know the real reason why I am being attacked, which is bad for your classical business.

Joe Edit Post Report post to moderator Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many casesFrom bandarbabu2000 on 2006-10-18Dear Joe

Don’t worry about classical homeopathy loosing its sheen because of our comments on ‘Joepathy.’

It is there since the last 200 years and will be there forever.

If our comments are making ‘Joepathy’ popular,it is for the better as far as you are concerned. Is it not?

So,sit back, relax and enjoy the popularity of your ‘Joepathy’. By your own admission, we are helping you to make it more popuular.

So, thank us, if you feel like.

Report post to moderator Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many casesFrom Joe De Livera on 2006-10-19I’m simply amazed at the traffic that I seem to generate on the ABC with my present band of detractors who now attack me on a daily basis, each of whom seems hell bent on criticizing me in his/her own inimitable way, with the avowed intention perhaps of silencing me. To me it seems unnatural that there should be such a concerted effort on the part of each of them to use the time they spend on the ABC in focussing his/her attention in criticizing me.

It is very strange however that the general membership, still seems to favour using my therapy, although one would have expected them to at least stop using them and to stop addressing their latest postings addressed to my attention, for fear of the dire danger that my therapy may, according to my detractors, pose to them (the patients) at a time hitherto undetermined, in the future.

It is possible that they still continue to use the remedies that I have prescribed as they have discovered that they invariably help to allay their pain and in many cases cure them. It is also possible that these patients still persist in contacting me as there do not seem to be others who are dedicated like me to deal with each of their cases as I do, with that special touch which may have precipitated this constant attack mode, anti Joepathy.

It will be noted that my detractors compel me to respond in my own defense which involves wasting my time on a daily basis, on what I feel is a negative approach to healing.

I call upon them individually and collectively to put their money where their mouth is and use their combined talents to prove to me and the rest of the membership that their own high faluting classical theories pertaining to curing ailments are superior to my own Joepathy.

I rest my case.

Joe…there are others who have said the same about Arnica.

I remember another person …here on ABC who was 75 years …said he had been taking a dose of Arnica everyday for more than two decades. I think he was from South America. Will take me time to dig out the post.

The “Polycrests”…are defined as such. Meds that take care of a variety of ailments.

I am reproducing this from another site:

These are known as ‘polycrest remedies,” from the Greek word ìpolychrest,î which means ” many uses.” Currently there are sixty-five such remedies.

I am glad that you brought up my pet remedy Arnica in your post and was very interested to learn that there was another 75 year old who had been taking Arnica for even longer than I have been taking it, which is since 1996.

I shall be very interested to have some record of his post.

Joe Edit Post Report post to moderator Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many casesFrom ripas on 2006-10-24Joe, for someone who complains about being forced to waste time, you certainly churn out over-lengthy and extremely repetitive posts, without ever addressing the core issues.
I have ‘visited’ your article, and I’m afraid your illogic does not convince me. What defense are you claiming when you are so short-sighted that you are unable to gauge from symptoms following your faulty recommendations that you are not curing but causing other problems? That you are adamant on your viewpoint, which has no basis, but not only abuse real homeopaths, but loftily claim that real homeopathy will “die out” (because, of course, your great genius has discovered the REAL real homeopathy!)? That your knowledge is shallow and undefined, which is why you will not or cannot do anything other than practice allopathy disguised – and therefore mislead those who think they can depend on you? That you think nothing of not knowing your remedies – even the remedies you constantly employ -thoroughyly?
You quote Dinesh Sharma’s thread and say how appalled you are by his prescription and his “sheer arrogance”, but fail to see exactly those factors in your own.
If you were a homeopath, you would not need arnica every day. You would have found a remedy that cured you. Even from what you write, it is obvious that you don’t need arnica every day. Its effect is certainly not homeopathic. However, I concede that arnica has multiple uses – but so do most homeopathic remedies. I wish you good health with your protocol, but I don’t think you are remotely justified in cutting & pasting it to anyone and everyone.
Any remedy that that have an effect on a person also has the potential to harm – please don’t use this cliched argument that “it can do no harm”.
HOW successfully have you “resolved” the asthma cases? Please go back and read the threads – classic palliation, and very likely suppression too. It’s a very good thing that those posters kept on posting for so long, so after the initial euphoria, the facts became obvious – if you care to see them. Obviously you don’t. Ifthis is how you count “successful” cases, then you are guilty of unintentional fraud. Sorry to be harsh, but just as you refuse to understand my point, I refuse to pander to yours.
I am certainly not here to “drum up business for” myself – if you will note, I do not even post my e-mail ID. I have enough to do, but because of my very great regard for homeopathy and the nonsense that goes on in the name of homeopathy, I will continue as far as I can to refute what is misleading.
Please also go and read the introduction to the Organon and you might see some advice for yourself. Don’t quote Hahnemann out of context or for your purposes. You are still a good man, but certainly no homeopath.
You remind me of those people who keep boxes of drugs like paracetamol and other OTC remedies and some antibiotics, creams, etc., they have had prescribed at some point, and with no more idea than that ‘this does that’, solemnly hand out medicines to anyone in need. Intention is very noble, I’m sure – but what about the results? I’m sure they too would insist that they “cured” X,Y or Z.
happy birthday anyway – sorry if this isn’t much of a gift. Report post to moderator Re: Why ‘Joepathy’ works in many casesFrom Nesha-India on 2006-10-24CONSIDER THIS :

Arnica is a CULT or a fad or a religion for “joepathy.

Arnica works for ANY & ALL diseases ONLY in a store in SriLanka.

– Arnica as “Global or Universal” remedy for ANY & ALL diseases is deliberately and falsely projected only through Homeo forums, “W H Y ? ” … JUST simply to create a self-identity (which in psychological parlance is termed as “A.D.D.”.

– All around the world, The Homeopathic Medical Councils, will spit on SUCH “Cult” prescribing of Arnica for ANY & ALL diseases.

– Literally all the other Homeo sites & Forums have banned the propogator & manipulator of the Arnica CULT. Forums like ABC… & many others, are outside the purview of the local Homeopathic Medical Councils, and nuisance & false propogators of Arnica and Nat.Phos, find it very very convienent to carry out their self-glorifying nuisance without any social or moral sense of responsibility. OBVIOUSLY, the internet forums provide these nuisance CULT propogators a ready and safe “PSCYHO” outlet for their self-glorifications in the guise of “FREE HELP”, or “respected old age” or what-nots (sic).

* * * ANYBODY WHO KNOWS A REMEDY FOR … “PSYCHOLOGICAL MASTURBATION”.

– Will these CULT (Arnica) propogators, be ever allowed to Medically practise in any country. They won’t be allowed and will be thrown out back to SriLanka. In SriLanka, THERE ARE NO HOMEOPATHIC INSTITUTIONS OR COLLEGES and neither ANY RULES & REGULATIONS WHATSOEVER.

– Majority of the patients who disappeared were false multiple login alias i.d.’s, used for self-glorification and sadistic pleasure created by such false CULT propogators, as caught by Nesha-India (one of them is “kuldeep alias girilal alias ……….”)

– OBVIOUSLY, “ONLY” incompetent Homeopaths WILL AGREE to the Arnica being a universal remedy for ANY & ALL diseases, WHICH IS VERY EASY TO PRESCRIBE on the basis of “THIS FOR THAT” allopathic theory.

– Homeopathy is not make-believe Forestry medicine, which can be un-authentically prescribed left and right. Homeopathy is a specific and precise razor-sharp art in medicine. Homeopathy requires very specific professional medical knowledge THAN RUNNING A STORE in SriLanka.

– Arnica, prescribing for ANY & ALL diseases, is like playing an Internet game, with nothing to lose. The Arnica prescriber cannot be held responsible, when a genuine patient’s case becomes further more complicated. Such patients will never ever know, what has actually caused such complications.

– CAN we all hide behind Arnica and say that just because “Joe” is a senior citizen, experienced and respectable, Arnica can be prescribed for ANY & ALL diseases. Such prescribing, when failed, will make the patient GO AWAY FROM HOMEOPATHY to other medicine systems like Allopathy ….. The distressed patients will lose hope and his trust in Homeopathy and in forums like this one. Patients will try the hare-brained one’s-favourite medicines, and on failure to get results, with frustration, just simply won’t bother to post on this forum and with frustration even stop visiting such forums.

– Can we all give Arnica as a PROPHYLACTIC for “ANY & ALL” diseases

– Can Arnica be given as a PROPHYLAXIS as a preventive treatment against “ANY & ALL” diseases

CONSIDER reading the entire posts in following links, wherein Nesha-India has been high-lighting (since a year) the nuisance of Mono “Arnica” prescribing for ANY & ALL diseases.

Arnica the Miracle Remedy – Brief case histories

From Joe De Livera on 2005-11-08
38 replies 2313 views
I would like to note below brief case histories which I have recorded in the use of Arnica for various ailments.

It will be noted that some of the ailments that were successfully cured are not listed in the Repertories and the Materia Medicas now in use, and it is hoped that they are considered for listing in future editions, after more tests are carried out by those who can count on the facilities to carry out these tests.

WOUNDS 30c
Arnica 30c is the classical remedy to help cure wounds.

GENERAL TONIC IN DAILY USE 30c
I have used Arnica 30c which I discovered was better than the 6c for the last 10 years every night or more often in the case of need like after surgery. I believe that I owe to it my sense of wellness. I do not have any ache or pain in my body and I have proved that it is to Arnica that I owe my BP 120/80 with pulse 65 at age 76. I invite others to use it and to record their response to this remedy.

SUBSTITUTE FOR MORPHINE POST MAJOR SURGERY 200c and 30c
I have used this myself after my Retropubic Prostatectomy and can confidently recommend it for use after any major surgery. When I regained consciousness I noticed the Morphine syringe attached to the IV line and promptly ordered it removed to the consternation of the nursing staff and the surgeon, who warned me that I could even suffer from a major shock due to the pain without the morphine. I stated that I will use my Arnica alone to control the pain and they were very surprised to note that I was relatively free of pain after a few hours. I was able to leave my bed on the third day without any pain medication except for the Arnica I used every 2 hours at first and every 3 hours later. I was discharged on the 5th day and walked to my car. They were all amazed at my extremely quick recovery at 73 years.

EASES URINE FLOW CAUSED BY BPH 30c Wet Dose
I used Sabal S 6c and Conium 30c when I discovered that I was allergic to Hytrin that was prescribed for my BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia). I had a slight wound for which I used Arnica 30c and discovered that it was far superior to the other remedies I used for BPH and I stayed with it from 1996 up to my surgery in 2003 and used it after on a regular nightly basis.

HELPS TO CONTROL INCONTINENCE AFTER TURP 30c
It amazes me how this remedy that I have given over 20 patients who were suffering from the after effects of the TURP (trans urethral resection of the prostate) surgery who were incontinent due to some misadventure on the part of the Uro who had obviously damaged the sphincter muscle in the neck of the bladder. Arnica gave more time between visits to the toilet and in many cases it stabilized the incontinence in a few months. Others use it on a twice daily basis. Always in the water dose.

JET LAG 30c
I have used it for many years on every overseas trip. Dosage is 1 teaspoonful taken 3 times on the day before departure. Dry doses to be taken every 3 hours on board and 3 times on the day after arrival.

LACK OF MOTOR FUNCTION OF EXTREMITIES IN 82 YEAR OLD 1M Wet Dose
The patient gradually lost motor control of his hands and feet for about a year and was confined to either his bed or a chair where he was placed by his children. Drugs that were prescribed were not effective. This case was referred to me and my response was an act of faith on my part in giving him Arnica 1M which I gave him in the water dose. He was completely cured in 2 months. The dosage used was 1 teaspoonful (capful) twice daily. He is now quite mobile and does not use the remedy any more.

MENTAL DEGENERATION IN THE AGED 1M
I used Arnica 1M dose 1 tsp daily in the case of a 75 year old who was showing signs of Alzheimer’s and he showed perceptible improvement in 2 weeks which was continued thereafter. He is now permanently on the Arnica. Dose 1 tsp daily.

CHRONIC ACHES AND PAINS 30c
I have used it very often when the patient complains of general body pain (not arthritic). It is also useful for chronic back pain due to previous injuries. Sciatica is also helped by a twice daily dose.

INSOMNIA 30c
Almost everyone who has taken 1 teaspoonful of this remedy in the water dose prior to sleep has noticed the deep unbroken sleep that they experienced during the night. They wake up quite refreshed with a zing in their steps.

ECZEMA 6c
I have used it in over 30 cases some of which were chronic for over 10 years and within a week, the patient is usually cured. The success rate is better that 80%. I recommend that the remedy is continued but those who did not do so after about 3 months do not use it anymore and can be considered permanently cured. The skin condition after this time resembles Vitiligo especially in the chronic cases which had eroded the melanin in the skin which does not regenerate but there is no discomfort or itchiness.

CELLULITIS 30c
I first used this remedy for a 78 year old lady who was suffering from recurrent reinfection of her legs. She had been to hospital every 6 months on 3 occasions for about a week each time where she was treated with the most powerful antibiotics which left her drained out like a rag. When she came out on the last occasion I gave her Arnica 30c in the water dose and she takes 1 teaspoonful before sleep. She was also an insomniac and now enjoys deep sleep and for the last 2 years she has not suffered from any reinfection from her Cellulitis. I have also used it for 3 other patients also in the same age group who had been hospitalized at least twice before in each case and they do not have any reinfection after many months or years. The Arnica seems to help by increasing the blood flow in the capillaries under the skin which in turn prevents reinfection. They have however to be on one dose of Arnica permanently.

PROMOTES GROWTH OF HAIR 30c
I would refer to the many posts on the ABC forum where I have been advocating the use of Arnica 6c for hair growth. The success rate has been better than 80%. I use Weisbaden 200c for the stubborn cases which is taken every other day.

ANGINA 200c
Many who were using Nitroglycerine on a SOS basis have been helped by the Arnica 200c which was used also on a SOS basis. For daily use as a prophylactic the patient uses Arnica 30c twice daily and is not affected by the angina any more. It is however important that the patient has his condition checked regularly.

CHRONIC HEADACHE 30c
I used Arnica in many cases that were not reacting to Bryonia 30 which is my default remedy for headaches and it worked well.

INTERNAL HAEMORRHAGE IN A HAEMOPHILIAC 30c
I am treating a boy who is now 6 years for the last 3 years who is a Haemophiliac with Arnica 30c for internal bleeding when he suffers from any fall or bump which causes a swelling and pain usually on his joints. The Arnica helps to dissipate the blood and reduces the swelling. I use Lachesis 200c for open cuts which bleed profusely and this arrests the bleeding in about 15 minutes. Prior to this therapy the boy had to be rushed to hospital for a drip with every fall or cut.

PIMPLES, ACNE, BLEPHARITIS, ROSACEA, STYES 30c
Hundreds of teenagers have benefited by the use of Arnica 30c. I can vouch personally for its efficacy to control styes which I used to get weekly with painful results.

BED SORES 30c
Prevents their formation.

NOSE BLEED 200c
The ultimate remedy.

RHEUMATISM AND GOUT 30c
I believe that it helps to dissipate the swelling of the synovial fluid which causes pain. I treat the Arthritis with Rhus Tox 1M and Hypericum 200c to alleviate the pain both taken in the water dose.

ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION 6c
I have many patients who have certified that it works like a charm !

TONSILLITIS 30c
Helps to alleviate the swelling and pain. This remedy is only effective as soon as the tonsils show signs of discomfort. Chronic cases have to be treated with an antibiotic. This remedy controls the formation of Tonsiloliths but it has to be taken on a daily basis to be effective in this control.

DIABETES 30c
I consider that this is easily my most important discovery which I made quite accidentally a year ago when I gave Arnica 30c to a MD who was a Type I Diabetic to help cure a chronic non healing wound. He informed me on the day after he took 2 doses that his Blood Sugar had dropped drastically and refused to use it anymore as he felt that it was some mysterious medicine which he did not wish to experiment with as he was already on Insulin which he injected himself 4 times daily. I then gave this remedy to two Type II Diabetics and discovered that they had the same reaction when their BS dropped considerably similar to the drop caused by Metformin. I then prescribed 1/4 teaspoonful Cinnamon powder to be used twice daily and have 2 patients who are able to control their ailment without recourse to the standard drugs used for the control of Diabetes.

I seek your help.

I am a 60Yr old person, a teetotaler with frugal eating habits. In 2001 August, I had an MI and the Doctor did rescue angioplasty with BareMetalStent to LAD. I was put on drugs and led a fairly normal life till 2011 April, when I had Chest Discomfort. Doctors this time put 3 DES with local anesthesia i/c one to LAD where the earlier stent got blocked. While the procedure was On, I had extreme pain in Chest (and clutched to an attendant’s hand to bear the pain)& told the Doctor so. On discharge, I noticed chest discomfort, muscular pain in arms on minimal exertion. Doctor advised me to take nitrate either sorbitrate or nitrocontin (I didn’t).

I thought I will improve with time. Not really, 11months gone the discomfort on minimal exertion is still there (very nominal improvement). Example, I take one full round of park and halt for 1-2min and then resume to ease my chest discomfort. This way, I walk for 30min daily min once or at times twice. Similarly sometimes after meals, it takes (may be) 3-5min to feel better ie pain in arms and chest discomfort gets eased.

My major parameters are normal ie regular appetite, defecation,body temperature, no sugar, hypertension managed with drugs, cholesterol always normal, sometime hypothyroid test shows above normal range but without any corresponding symptom.

My numbers are:
Weight 85kg, Height 5’8″, EF 56%, Pulse 78/min, BP 140/90, Total Cholestrol 166mg, Triglycerides 112mg, HDL 51mg, LDL 92.8mg, VLDL 22mg, Cholesterol/HdLC Ratio 3.2mg (Lipid numbers are at the time of last procedure ie 2011 April.)

My current medications:
Clopidogrel 75mg, Ecospirin 150mg, Seloken XL 50mg, Cardace H 2.5mg, Cardace 2.5mg 1each daily

Recently, I started homeo and take following medicines:
Crataegus Oxycantha 10drops 3times a day
Kali Phosphoricum 6X & Kalmia Lat 30 4pills 3times a day each.

My main issues are Angina on minimal exertion and side-effects of medicines like flatulence & gas, I am compelled to take post procedure. So if we could improve blood circulation to the heart and whole body and relax the coronary arteries and the system, It will make me fine. The two issues which have bugged me in life is first hypertension (high BP) since 20+yrs ago and stressful existence.

I look forward to your valued advise and do believe you can help me in leading a normal and better quality of life.

thanks and regards

  Thank you for alerting me by e-mail and I am glad to note that you finally succeeded in posting your problem on my website after a few days of frustration when you could not do so for some reason I did not understand.
  
  I must admit that your case is indeed extremely complicated and it does pose a challenge to me in helping you. I am confident however that the “Joepathy” I use which is different in its concept from classical homoeopathy, although I use the standard homeopathic remedies but in a manner that is allopathic, which is not permitted in classical Homeopathy. I treat the disease in a “this for that” manner because I have ample evidence to prove that my therapy has worked in a manner that the therapy used by classical homeopaths has not.
  
  The remedies you will use are:
  Arnica 30C in the wet dose taken twice daily to filter and thin your blood. This will also reduce the Cholesterol and Triglycerides and other debris in your blood and should hopefully help your Angina which is due to the lack of blood flow in your cardiac muscles which I consider is surprising after your Bypass Surgery.
  Nat Phos 6x dose 2-3 tablets taken twice daily after meals. This remedy seems to help patients like you in some mysterious manner that I do not understand, but I have evidence that it does help the patient to recover in a manner that drugs cannot do.
  
  It is the combination of both remedies that seem to work and I would like you to visit the link below of Robert Ray whom I helped back to normal health after a period of over 8 years when he first suffered from 3 strokes which left him first a paraplegic and later enabled him to shuffle around with a cane. He made contact with me in 2010 and subsequently in 2011 when he surprised me by stating that he was absolutely cured and back to normal health which also included an almost daily session of intensive exercise, about which I had to caution him.
  
  http://www.joedelivera.com/?p=388
  
  It is my hope that you will also respond in a manner similar to Robert, but it must be understood that your recovery may take a few months into the future in view of the fact that your cardiac problems first started in 2001 and you have had many surgical procedures done during this period. I also note that you are taking many drugs that you’re been prescribed by your cardiologists and it will be necessary that you continue to use them together with the 2 remedies I have prescribed above for the moment and you will keep in constant contact with me in the future to enable me to advise you as to which of these drugs you can stop when the 2 remedies I have prescribed take over and are helping you.
  
  I feel that you should experience relief of your angina within a period of 2 weeks, and the flatulence and gas that you complain of should virtually disappear within hours of your taking Nat Phos 6x.

Doctor Joe

It is kind of you to have responded promptly and I appreciate.
Just wanted you to know, that Aug 2001 procedure was angioplasty with one baremetalstent to LAD and then it was only April 2011, that another angioplasty was done with 3stents (DrugElutingStents). No bypass surgery was done. And the intervening period of 10years was also without any cardiac event. How come, Doctor you consider my case extremely complicated. I thought this is a simple one cause you have dealt with many far more complex cases successfully. Nonetheless, I have faith in joepathy and value your advise.
Please let me know as to my homeo medicines whether I should continue that as well or not.

thanks and regards

  You must understand that I am not a Cardiologist and misinterpreted your reference to LAD
  or Left Anterior Descending Artery (LAD) as being only possible with Open Heart Surgery.
  
  I found the video on You tube interesting on :
  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18zlNa216vI
  
  I presumed that LAD surgery can only be done at an open heart level.
  
  The main point you must always be aware of is that all your major cardiac arteries are blocked and it is unlikely that Stents are the answer and can cure you. You are now having the first signs of further cardiac distress and all I can do at this stage is to hope that my therapy — Arnica and Nat Phos can help you even at this very late stage. If only you had contacted me in 2001, it is very likely that you would not be having any blockage today.
  
  I see that I prescribed Arnica 30c but I believe that Arnica 6c should serve you better and I shall therefore amend my prescription to Arnica 6c which you can take thrice daily for a week and report your response when we can jointly discuss the next step.
  
  I base my assumption on the fact that I have helped scores of patients who were suffering from chronic Angina with Arnica 6c in the Wet dose who were prescribed the standard TNT tablets to be popped under their tongue by their doctors, who all reported that within 3 days on Arnica 6c in the Wet dose they did not require the TNT tablets.
  
  I presume that you would have read the thread on Robert Ray and this too reinforces my theory that Arnica can help you, in a manner that drugs cannot. In his case the potency I used was Arnica 30c in the Wet dose but his problem was different from yours as it comprised dissolving blood clots in his brain which Arnica 30 did in conjunction with Nat Phos 6x.
  
  It is indeed a shame that the medical profession refuses to use this simple Arnica therapy which I have pioneered as a replacement for the TNT pills and in your case Stents, as they are all temporary while my therapy seems to be more permanent as patients do not experience any pain from Angina after a few weeks.
  
  You will of course continue to take the drugs prescribed by your cardiologist but you will stop the Homeopathic remedies as it is most likely that they can antidote the 2 remedies that I have prescribed.

I presume that you know how to make the Wet dose prescribed of Arnica 6c but since I have not spelt it out for you I shall copy my default instructions below:

The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

  Plastic bottles are OK. I use them exclusively to give the remedies to my patients. You should read the fine print and check that the water is sourced from deep bore wells and not from the town mains. I was informed that Bisleri is OK. That is if you live in India.
  
  It is best to take Arnica on an empty stomach first thing in the morning and about half hour before or after your drugs. 2 hours after meals.
  
  You will take 3 doses of Arnica and 3 tablets of Nat Phos 6x immediately after each of 3 meals daily.
  
  Report your response in 48 hours after you start on my therapy.

  The potency of Arnica which will serve you best for your problems is the 6c in the Liquid Dilution. You will have to abide by the advice of your vendor to decide between the Indian or the German products and you can await their arrival next week.
  
  The Qua natural mineral water is OK as long as it does not bubble like soda. You do not have to refrigerate the remedy but if the weather is hot, there is no objection in your doing so.
  
  When I was last in Bangalore the weather was quite cool around this time of the year in 1982 when I attended the Floral Exhibition at Lal Barg and this is when a Bougainvillea was christened by the Horticulturists under my name Joe De Livera. It is sold under this name even today by KSG & Sons. I have a large Bougainvillea right outside my window in my garden dating back to the first plant that I brought with me at that time. The Bougain is very similar to the Mahatma Gandhi but it was proved that there is a slight difference in the configuration of the stamens and KSG decided to name it in my honour.
  
  Can you please give me the name and the address of your vendor in Bangalore as I am compiling a list of Homeopathic Pharmacies in India and throughout the world to give my patients. I have the names of vendors in Delhi, Mumbai and in Channai but not in your city.

  Glad to note that the Hypericum 200 has helped you. It is safe to be used to alleviate the acute pain and I would like to know details of your response to this remedy which saved you from the agony and also the danger of using analgesics that your surgeon would have prescribed to alleviate the pain caused by his experimental surgery for which there does not seem to any end.
  
  I would like to know from you, how long it takes before the Hypericum acts and also for how long you have found it active. When did you take the next dose and how many doses did you take during waking hours.
  
  I cannot advise you on your future surgery but if you can persuade your surgeon to cut the Seton out and permit my therapy to take over, I believe that you will be relieved of a lot of pain which is so very unnecessary. It was obviously caused by the Seton which is one of the methods that surgeons use to ‘help’ their patients who are anesthetized during the procedure but are left to their own resources after discharge which is when the acute agony starts after the anesthetic wears off, as you obviously know and have suffered for the last month.
  
  I was not aware that you have been suffering this agony for the last 11 months and you must consider yourself fortunate that you discovered me and my “Joepathy”. I would like to know how you discovered me.
  
  What is your present condition? Do you feel that you have improved in the period that you have used my Joepathy?
  
  It also occurred to me that you can consult another surgeon before you fall a victim to your present surgeon who would obviously love to chop you up as it is you that has to suffer and not him.

Waiting for your kind response.
Meanwhile, please clarify the followings brought to my notice by my cousin. According to him, if patient is on anticoagulant and antiplatlet therapy (I am taking clopidogrel and ecospirin) there is risk of bleeding with arnica besides its adverse effect on heart, lungs & kidney. Being a heart patient, I need to be cautious. Though I explained to him as to your expertise and hold on the subject, still thought it prudent to ask your comment.

  I would doubt very much that the addition of Arnica could possibly cause you any distress as feared by you. I would go as far as stating that this is impossible.
  
  Please read the article by Dr Vijaya Kumar who contributed a very valuable treatise on how Arnica filters the blood in my article Arnica the Miracle Remedy, if you wish to set your mind at rest.
  
  I believe that you have been taking Arnica during the past few days and you would be the best judge of whether it has helped you and reduced your pain levels.
  
  My desire was to enable you to slowly replace the drugs that you are using currently and which will only be able to help you temporarily as they cannot give you the same curative effect that Arnica gives a patient.
  
  All I can do is to try to help you to a better state of health than you have at the moment but the choice is yours to use my Joepathy or continue with your present therapy which you have already seen is not working as you reported cardiac pain when you walk. It is very likely that this pain will increase and the next step would be Bypass surgery to relieve you of the increasing pain.
  
  You may like to know that I have 2 patients who have had Bypass surgery and they have stopped all drugs that they were taking for years and are now on the Arnica therapy. They both confirm that they feel much better than when they were on the drugs.

  Your dosage schedule is OK.
  
  The sooner you start on my Joepathy, the better for you as I can sense from your reports of your present condition that you will otherwise be heading for Bypass surgery. The pain that you are experiencing with any exertion clearly indicates that your arteries are all blocked irrespective of the stents and your cardiologist will surely advice you to head for surgery.
  
  It is true that I do not know you and that you do not have to abide by my advice but I can sense that you have reached a critical stage in your life which can hopefully be reversed by my therapy.
  
  5ml is the correct dosage and this is usually the contents of a capful of the bottle.
  
  You stated:
  
  “My course will be:
  
  Arnica 6 1st dose first thing empty stomach on rising

  If you are highly strung and suspicious this would indicate another remedy to calm your nerves down which may also help in your rehabilitation from your present status.
  
  You may use the remedy with 5 drops and leave a half hour between remedies. Nat Phos is the exception as it must be taken immediately after a meal.

I am also applying Arnica Q wet dose to my scalp twice a day. Please tell me the time slot between the medication and food intake.

  The lightening of your dark circles is an added bonus. Do keep me advised of your progress as this has been reported by other patients before. It is the Arnica that is responsible. You can check my article on Arnica the Miracle remedy on this website to read the comments of a few patients who also reported the lightening of their dark circles under their eyes.
  
  It is best to take the Arnica as the first thing in the morning and the last thing just before bed.
  
  The AMN 3x to be taken about an hour after the Arnica.
  
  Do not rush matters about the Ultrasound. Give it at least 4 months before you investigate with a scan. Remember that your body took some months to form the Fibroid and it is not unreasonable to expect that it cannot be resolved instantly.

  I shall copy below my default therapy for Hair Loss with Arnica.
  
  Your daughter will also add Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets taken after a meal twice daily and you can request her to record her weight weekly and report the loss which should normally be 1kg/week.
  
  Glad to note that you too read my article Arnica the Miracle Remedy. I have more cases which I had not added to for the last 6 months which I must do sometime soon.
  
  The following remedies will help to arrest the loss of hair and will also help to regrow the hair in about 2 months.
  
  Arnica Q or Mother Tincture 5ml bottle
  Arnica 30c in the Liquid Dilution in Ethanol
  2 500ml bottles of Spring water sold in supermarkets.
  Any good Fish Liver Oil in capsule form.
  
  Method:
  
  Pour out about 100ml of water fron each bottle.
  
  Pour in 25 drops of Arnica Q into the water in a bottle and you should notice that the water bubbles freely when the bottle is shaken about.
  
  Half a teaspoonful of this medicated water is to be applied on the scalp twice daily.
  Please note that this water is not to be taken orally.
  
  Arnica 30c for Oral use
  
  Make the Wet dose of Arnica 30 as follows:
  
  Order Arnica 30c in a 5ml in the Liquid Dilution in Ethanol in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you take a capfull which is a dose twice daily. This is best taken first thing in the morning and last thing before bed.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before a capful of the bottle is sipped as directed.
  
  Take a capsule of the Fish Liver Oil daily.
  
  Use Johnsons Baby Shampoo daily for your shower which will help to wash away the perspiration from the scalp which causes the bacteria that are responsible for your Dandruff to propogate.
  
  Avoid Coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham and bacon, and all canned cola beverages as they antidote the therapy.
  
  It is understood that you will STOP all other remedies and drugs you are taking today.
  
  Drink plenty of water and exercise daily for at least 45 minutes like walking or jogging depending on your age. The idea is to sweat it out. This is essential to promote the circulation of blood in the body which Arnica will help to promote.
  
  Patients who suffered from severe hair loss who were losing over 200 hairs daily have confirmed that they discovered in about a week that the loss of their hair had been arrested. They also noticed that the new growth was plainly visible above their scalp when their hair was parted in about 6 weeks.
  
  Report progress in 2 weeks.

  It seems to me that your case is obviously chronic after so many years of experimenting with multiple stents without addressing the primary cause of your blockage which is cholesterol and triglycerides and other debris which were not being controlled by the numerous drugs that you were using on a daily basis for years.
  
  You are on the brink of a Heart Bypass and it is my hope and prayer that you can avoid it even at this last moment with my therapy. You are advised to report weekly or more often to enable me to advice you.

Hi Joe,

I am a computer engineer by profession and I have to sit for long hours (more than 12 hours) on desk in front of computer. I do short walk about a mile during day and in evening but in general most of my life style is sedentary and I don’t do any rigorous physical activity. Four years ago I was physically very fit. My weight was within ideal limits and I had no fat. In past few years I started developing belly fat and now it looks like a tire (also called as love handles) around belly. I seriously want to reduce this belly but don’t know how? In fact if I try to do any rigorous physical activity I get tired very soon and cannot do it much. And from what I have read on internet it is extremely hard to get rid of the tire around belly. Do you have any homeopathic treatment which can reduce weight and especially this tire shape around my belly? Once I can reduce my weight then maybe I will be motivated to do more physical activity. I am a vegetarian and don’t drink alcohol, coffee, beer or soda and don’t smoke.

I will be really grateful and thankful to you if you can suggest some homeopathic remedy for this. I am 34 years old male with height 5ft 9 inches, waist 36 inches, and weight 200 lbs.

NK

  The Ultimate Cure for Obesity:

  This is a post I made on the ABC way back in 2004 on December 25, the day before the Tsunami hit Sri Lanka, a day which will forever will remain in my mind for as long as I live as I was involved in the Homeopathic after care of the many thousands of survivors immediately after the Tsunami when I was joined by members of Homeopaths Without Borders who sent 6 pairs of erstwhile Homeopaths to help me in my efforts to help them.
  
  Basically your therapy will comprise the use of
  Nat Phos 6x dose 3 tablets taken thrice daily after meals
  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily before meals.
  
  Weigh yourself today before you commence on my therapy and report your weight loss weekly when the standard loss which you can expect and has been reported is around 1kg per week.
  
  You will also do a regular stint of at least 45 minutes of exercise which will be done by you at intensive levels, irrespective of the general feeling of tiredness that you may experience, if you wish to benefit from my Joepathy.
  
  You will also control your diet and avoid fatty fools completely and eat in moderation to ensure that your stomach is filled to comfortable levels.

    Hi Joe,
    Thanks for your prompt reply. It is sad to know about the Tsunami catastrophe. Praise for your efforts to relieve the sufferings of people. It feels more humane to see people like you.
    
    Regarding the therapy
    Nat Phos 6x : Do I have to take it with water or chew it or just put it on tongue and let it melt ? Is this Hyland’s brand good to take? (http://www.amazon.com/Natrum-Phos-6X-500-Tablets/dp/B0001TMPIK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1333716552&sr=8-1)
    
    Arnica 30c : I found out that Arnica 30c is available in pellets (http://www.amazon.com/Boiron-Homeopathic-Medicine-160-Count-Packages/dp/B001G7QUVE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1333717318&sr=8-1)
    and liquid (http://www.thenaturalonline.com/boiron-arnica-montana-30-c-1-oz-liquid.html).
    
    From your posts I found out that you suggested two methods to prepare wet dose
    3 pellets in 400ml water or
    2 drops in 400ml water if you have the Ethanol.
    
    Please suggest which arnica should I order (liquid or pellets) to make wet dose? Also I am not sure the arnica liquid in the link above is “Liquid pack in Alcohol”?
    
    I also have kidney stone. In another post you suggested me to take “Berberis Vulgaris 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily” and “Colocynthis 200 in the Wet dose every 2 hours when you know that the stone has been dislodged”. Can I take Berberis Vulgaris 6c at the same time I am taking Nat Phos 6x, Arnica? You have mentioned in your posts about not to take any other medicine along with Nat Phos.
    
    Again I thank you for your kind advice.
    Regards,
    NK

      You will take Nat Phos 6x directly on the tongue and the tablets will dissolve in under a minute. Hylands is OK.
      
      You will order the Arnica as per the instructions on my prescription to you. Do not heed the instructions I gave about 4 years ago where I stated that the pellets were usable. I have discovered since that they do not come anywhere near the level of the Liquid Dilution of the remedy which I recommend that the patient orders in the 87% alcohol product as this is the most effective considering that we only use just 3 drops.
      
      The major problem in your case is that you will have to take the Berberis Vulgaris 6c in the Wet dose and the Colocynthis 200 on a SOS basis when necessary.
      
      We can only hope that the action of the Nat Phos will not be affected by the BV 6c as in any case you will be only taking the Colocynthis SOS.
      
      Report progress.

        Potency: 30C
        Size: 30 ml
        
        Natrum Phosphoricum
        Potency: 6X
        
        I will start taking them as you suggested and will report the progress in few weeks.

Joe,

I have been reading about the success on your therapy with Nat Phos 6x, and I would like to try it for my 4-month baby (he is almost 16 pounds and 24 3/4 inches tall. He has been suffering from silence GERD since he was two weeks old, and we have tried all kinds of PPIs (prevacid, zegarid, prilosec) H2 blockers (zantac) and antiacids (mylanta) to the point that we are giving Domperidone (a GERD medicine not available in the US), and we have seen some improvement with it.

Let me tell you a little bit about him…

Besides the reflux and now that we just found out he is severely allergic to peanuts, he is a very healthy and happy baby (when he is not in pain). Feeding him is a challenge, except when he is sleeping and relaxed. He used to spit during and after most of his feedings, now is happening less. When he is in pain he arches his back and puts his neck still; he has wet burps, excessive drooling and poor sleep habits.
From several weeks his crying sounds hoarse and he has stuffy nose. (We already took him to the Pediatrician and Allergist for this and his lungs and ears are clear). They have done all kinds of tests of him and he was hospitalized one week when he decided not to eat. That was one month and half ago. The tests showed normal.
The major improvement I have seen is when we start giving him Domperidone and mostly when I stopped eating dairy, soy and nuts. Still, I can hear the refluxed material coming up in his throat at night especially and this wakes him up and only nursing relieves him. He didn’t show any milk or soy allergy but I noticed that when I eat dairy (I think) he starts spitting up more.
He has been suffering from excessive gassiness (smelly) from day one, and sometimes burping is not easy. Also, he got thrush and Nystatin made it worse and I got it on my breasts too. One week ago, I started giving him probiotics and I’m treating us both with diluted grapefruit seed extract (GSE), and I have seen a great improvement on his thrush and on my well being as well. (I used to be gassy all the time as well). I am also taking a food-based multivitamins, probiotics, zeolites, garlic supplement and fennel tea for our gasiness.

My pregnancy was not easy. Because in my previous pregnancy I had a premature rupture of membranes at 19-weeks pregnant, with him I was put on PG17 (progesterone) shots since I was 14-weeks pregnant. And at 25 weeks I showed a short cervix so they put me on bed rest for the rest of my pregnancy. During all my pregnancy I was afraid I was leaking amniotic fluid so I had several visits to the ER in the Labor and Delivery Dept. My baby boy was delivered at home at 38 weeks. I only had 4 contractions and he was in the middle on my legs, 30 minutes labor in total.

Right now, I am exhausted and stressed out. Seeing my son in pain breaks my heart and see all the things piling up frustrates me too. There are bills that need to be paid, my work is piling up (I work at home, we have a small remodeling business), my two daughters also need attention, my house needs to be cleaned, diner needs to be made and so on. I don’t have any time for myself, and the lack of sleep is making me very irritable.

I hope you can help us out. Please let me know if you need more information

Thank you in advance.

  I have just read your post and note that you stated:
  
  “I have been reading about the success on your therapy with Nat Phos 6x, and I would like to try it for my 4-month baby (he is almost 16 pounds and 24 3/4 inches tall. ”
  
  Did you mean that your baby is 14 months old?
  
  I shall advice you tomorrow as I cannot do so right now but I would appreciate if you will please correct the age of your baby.
  
  In the meanwhile please visit the link below which pertains to another baby with both GERD and Asthma and read the therapy I have used which I shall clarify tomorrow.

  I believe that your son’s rapid growth was due to the Progesterone shots you were given starting at 14 weeks after your membranes ruptured and this is a small price to pay for his safe delivery in 38 weeks.
  
  The remedies that have proved to be very effective for Baby GERD are:
  
  Nat Phos 6x dose half tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed
  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose half teaspoonful given twice daily half hour before a feed.
  
  You will STOP all other drugs prescribed for baby which as you have already seen have not done any good.
  
  Please confirm that you burp him immediately after each feed.
  
  You will avoid all food that can cause any distress to baby.
  
  You will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily and Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
  
  You will not give baby any solids whatever till he is 12 months old.
  
  Report progress as often as you wish on this blog as I get an alert within 5 minutes.

    Joe,
    
    I am so excited about this therapy! Just not giving more drugs to my son provides me relief. I got the Nat Phos 6x and the Arnica 30c, but we only found the Arnica 30C in pebbles, is it ok? Or should I order the liquid type?
    Could you please explain to us the importance of not giving my son solids until 12 months? This is new to us since we gave solids at 6 months of age to our daughters.
    Is anything I could do or take for seasonal allergies? I got them really bad.
    
    Thank you for your GREAT help.

      Glad to learn that your son was helped by the Nat Phos 6x alone. I presume that you have not given the Arnica 30c as you were able to get only the pellets. It is best to get the Liquid Dilution as prescribed ASAP but in the meanwhile you may use 8 pellets in the 500ml spring water of which you will give him half a teaspoonful twice daily.
      
      The Arnica will help cure the Esophagus which is now eroded by the gastric juices and has to be helped back to normal. The Nat Phos will stop the reflux of the gastric juice which comprises HCl and Enzymes which are both necessary for digestion. It is when there is some imbalance in the quantity of gastric juice that the problem arises and the baby can only scream for help.
      
      As you have seen already, your pediatrician is programmed to give the baby any one of the PPI drugs and you must know that ALL PPI drugs have serious side effects on adults and you can imagine the damage that they can do to a baby.
      
      I shudder to think of the thousands, perhaps millions of babies who are given PPI drugs to treat a simple problem with GERD which can be likened to using a sledge hammer to hit a nail.
      
      You have asked for the reason why I have requested you not to give a baby solids for a year. The simple reason is that a baby’s digestion is not ready for solids till he is a year old. I am aware that many parents give their babies solids early but it is the child that pays for this mistake in later years with other more serious problems like Asthma, Eczema, Catarrh etc, all of which were caused by not waiting for the correct time to give solids.
      
      Milk is the obvious food and in the US you can get a variety of formula feeds and I would advice you to follow my advice in your baby’s interest.
      
      It makes me wonder if the majority of problems associated with Baby GERD are due to babies being fed solids when they should only be on breast milk or formula. The pediatrician would of course be every willing to prescribe a PPI drug instead of advising the mother to lay off solids and stick to milk till the baby is a year old.

        My son slept better last night. He nursed at 8:30pm and woke at 2 am but we were able to console him without nursing him. Then, he woke at 4am and nursed fine. Nice progress with only two doses of Nat Phos 6x! I also gave him the two wet doses of Arnica 30c with the pebbles, but I already ordered the Arnica 30c in liquid form.
        Today, he has been ok, except the last feeding he threw up a lot. Can I give him the Nat Phox 6x 1/2 tablet under his tongue or is better to dilute it on water? I just don’t want him to vomit the medicine.

        Glad to note the improvement in his condition after you have given him the Nat Phos 6x with the 2 doses of Arnica.
        
        You stated:
        “Can I give him the Nat Phox 6x 1/2 tablet under his tongue or is better to dilute it on water? I just don’t want him to vomit the medicine.”
        
        It is possible that the real reason why he vomits his last feed at night is because you have not given him the Nat Phos as usual. Suggest you give it to him dissolved in your milk or water as this will help in the digestion of his feed instead of the milk curdling in his stomach and his throwing it up as it has not digested. You would have observed that the smell of his vomit is very acidic which is the real reason for his GERD. Please do not ever give him the tablet sublingually as he can choke on it.
        
        I hope that you will get the Arnica ASAP as this is an integral part of my therapy to CURE him.

I am 56 years male with good health. All these time I felt my face was having some swelling & whenever I washed I also felt it is not clear. No doctor could tell me what it is. Few days back I developed puffy face with swelling under eyes and some blackish spots on face under skin. My neck is also bit black compared to body colour. I realised that it may be a hidden eczema.
As per your thread I took wet dose of Arnica 6 twice. On second day I could see the change in face colour but by evening it returned to same. Using wet doese on swelling under eyes made difference.Only face skin is so dry that it looks lifeless. No spots or nothing on the body.

I wish to confirm it is eczema ?
Firsly the medicine reacted then it is very slow. Shall I continure with it or change to arnica 30 ?
What shall I apply on face skin ?

I pray to God for all your well being as you are an asset to humankind.

  Your problem with your facial problems is unusual and I am glad to learn that Arnica 6 helped them even though temporarily. I would doubt that there is any connection to Eczema in the colour of your neck.
  
  You have inquired it Arnica 30c can help you better than 6c.
  
  The answer is NO. You are advised to continue with the Arnica 6c therapy and report progress from time to time in the future.
  
  Thank you for your kind thoughts which I appreciate at my advanced age of 83 years. It will be my pleasure to serve humanity for as long as I feel that I am able to do so in the future.

  You can certainly take the Fish oil capsule but I do not know what the Indian ‘tonic’ is. It is best to not use unknown tonics as they can do more harm than good and will also antidote the Homeopathy.
  
  Continue with the Arnica 6c for a few more weeks till you are back to normal and I would like you to change over to Arnica 30c which you will take just once daily for life. You may like to know that I have taken it nightly for the last 16 years and at age 83 I do not show the usual signs of old age. My Cholesterol is normal and I still drive to work daily. All my patients who have used it in this manner have confirmed that it is a great blessing to mankind.

I got the Arnica 30C in liquid solution. To confirm, you mentioned to give it to him 30 minutes before a feeding twice a day. Does it matter if it is given 30 minutes before feeding. Or can I just space the two remedies 30 minutes apart?

Derick, my son is doing better, still gassy but he is in less pain and sleeping much better.

    Regarding his progress, he is doing much better, still dealing with his thrush and refusal to eat but the pain is almost gone.
    I started the Arnica 30C in liquid on a wet dose yesterday, hopefully, that would healing him even more.

      I hope you are giving Derick just under half teaspoonful of the Arnica water remedy and you can restrict it to just twice daily. You will of course continue with the Nat Phos 6x but you can reduce the frequency and use it if and when he shows signs of distress. The Arnica will promote deep sleep and I would like to know if you too observe this phenomenon which is a boon at night, for the parents.
      
      You would have noticed how effective the Nat Phos has been in comparison to the poisonous PPI drugs that were prescribed and which had not helped baby.

        I was not giving him enough Arnica so yesterday was the first day I gave it to him in full. He slept better! Thanks.
        Still, feeding him is a challenge. I have tried both, breast and my milk in a bottle. I have also tried different types of bottles and nipples, but still is hard, and feeding him outside home is very difficult. He would not eat, so going anywhere is almost impossible.
        I read somewhere in other GERD case that you prescribed Nux Vomica along with the Nat Phos 6x. Should we wait couple of weeks with the Nat Phos 6x and the Arnica 30c or should we add the Nux Vomica?
        How long do you think my baby will start feeding better?
        
        Thanks a bunch for your guidance.

        Glad to learn that Derick slept better but that you are experiencing a problem in feeding him.
        
        You have not however indicated how his GERD has responded and I would not like to prescribe Nux Vomica which did in the case of another baby who was not responding to my Nat Phos therapy some years ago. Good to know that you read my previous posts on the ABC where I posted this advice to the mother as baby was not responding. In Derick’s case however it is obvious that he is not suffering from GERD and it is only a matter of a few days when he will stabilize without any remedies whatever as is usually the case with babies when their digesting system discovers that it is free to develop without the PPI drugs which could have taken a serious toll of your baby’s digestive system.
        
        Please confirm that you are also taking the Nat Phos 6x as I want to ensure that your own milk is suitably stabilized before it reaches Derick.

Yes, I am taking 2 tablets of Nat Phos 6x three times daily after main meals.
Derick has responded to the Nat Phox 6x and the Arnica, he is still presenting GERD symptoms, but not with the severity as before. I guess is a matter of time. Question, can I prepare the Nat Phos 6x ahead of time? Instead of plain water, can I mix the 1/2 tablet of Nat Phos 6x with fennel tea?
It would be more convenient to have his daily dosages already prepared when needed but I better ask.
This coming Thursday he is going to have a procedure to fix his very mild tongue-tie. Drs. didn’t think he need it before, but seeing that his feeding difficulties are not getting better, they want to correct it to see it alleviates his gassiness somewhat and his feeding. The only part that I don’t like is that they have to put him under general anesthesia. Any recommendations for his prompt recovery will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again Joe.

  I was concerned to note that Derick is to undergo:
  “This coming Thursday he is going to have a procedure to fix his very mild tongue-tie.”
  
  This is a surgical procedure which is done under general anesthesia which is best avoided at his tender age till he is a few months older
  
  I am not qualified in medicine and surgery to advise you but I would suggest that you consult another pediatrician who does not know your son’s case before you embark on this surgical adventure which may correct itself in a few months. I am convinced that his GERD was not due to this “mild” problem and unless you feel that his tongue is responsible for his GERD, which I personally doubt very much, this is best left alone for a few more months to let nature take its course.
  
  You must obviously be aware that all surgeons and this includes the pediatricians who work jointly with them in cases like Derick’s, would love to manipulate the case in a manner that ensures the revenue that accrues from the procedure which may not be really necessary for him as you have observed in the last few days after he came under my therapy.
  
  My advice to you is to give Derick some more time before you decide that surgery is the ONLY answer to his “Tongue-tie” .
  
  “Question, can I prepare the Nat Phos 6x ahead of time? Instead of plain water, can I mix the 1/2 tablet of Nat Phos 6x with fennel tea?”
  
  You may certainly prepare the Nat Phos ahead of time but I would prefer that you do so with plain water as fennel tea may complicate the issue.

Thanks Joe for your input. We decided to cancel the procedure and see how he does with time. Even the surgeon though is better to wait.

Unfortunately, Derick didn’t have a good night. His stomach was rumbling and gassy making his GERD symptoms worse.
I am taking three teaspoons of coconut oil daily to get rid of his yeast which is working but that makes us both gassy. I didn’t give him fennel tea yesterday and I didn’t drink it that much so I can tell the fennel tea was helping him because without it he was very uncomfortable.

My diet is grain/vegetable base with no sugars, no dairy, no red meats, no soy, no wheat and still he is gassy. Anything else that I can give him? As I mentioned to you before, he has been gassy since day number one and no matter how plain my diet is, he still gassy. That is the reason I was pushing for the tongue-tie correction because sometimes I think he swallows too much air. In the other hand it can also be the Candida in his GI tract making him gassy and very food sensitivity. What do you think?

  Glad to learn that you have canceled the surgery which you did not seem to have appreciated is dangerous especially for babies and can also affect their brain functions permanently for so very trivial a reason.
  
  I do not for a moment accept the excuse that he gets gassy due to the tongue tie and you will see if I am correct in a few months.
  
  You stated:
  “I am taking three teaspoons of coconut oil daily to get rid of his yeast which is working but that makes us both gassy.”
  I am glad to note that you too suspected this point and I cannot understand the reason why you took it. Please stop it. I hope you realize that the fat in the oil will make you fatter. It will be interesting to observe if my theory is correct.
  
  Do not jump to conclusions about Candida, Tongue tie and other old wive’s tales for the sake of Derick. Let us jointly see him safely into childhood and I shall be glad to help him in his future life if I am still around. (I am 83 year old).
  
  Continue with my Joepathy and report progress as often as you wish.

    I mentioned to you above that Derick has thrush and yeast diaper rash. This is what I wrote above:
    He has been suffering from excessive gassiness (smelly) from day one, and sometimes burping is not easy. Also, he got thrush and Nystatin made it worse and I got it on my breasts too. One week ago, I started giving him probiotics and I’m treating us both with diluted grapefruit seed extract (GSE), and I have seen a great improvement on his thrush and on my well being as well. (I used to be gassy all the time as well). I am also taking a food-based multivitamins, probiotics, zeolites, garlic supplement and fennel tea for our gasiness.
    I have read that coconut oil helps with candida. That is why I started taking it.
    I am following your therapy as described and plan to contine so but his thrush makes him gassy which worses his GERD.

      Please STOP giving Derick any drugs or remedies including GSE.
      Also STOP “I am also taking a food-based multivitamins, probiotics, zeolites, garlic supplement and fennel tea for our gassiness.” and anything else you are taking as they will all get transferred to baby through your milk.
      
      Stay with the Nat Phos after every feed and report if there is any difference in a few days.
      
      If you too suffer from GERD you can take 2-3 tablets of Nat Phos 6x after meals

        Joe,
        
        Derick’s reflux is bad today. I can hear his refluxed material coming back in his throat making him cough. Aso, he has been vomiting after meals. He continues with gassiness, cramping and today he has had several stools. I wonder if he is teething because he is drooling like crazy.
        Please advise

        Let us try Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose to see if it will help him. Give him a quarter teaspoonful twice daily and report progress.
        
        We will have to experiment with a few remedies to observe how he responds and as you indicated a few days ago, I have used it in the past with another baby like yours and he was soon cured.
        
        It is a matter of interest that almost all the babies that I have treated for GERD are boys.
        
        I wonder why?

        Joe,
        
        I couldn’t find the reply button below your posting on April 27 at 7:48pm.
        I added the Nux Vomica as you advised to Derick’s therapy and he is doing better. He not fully cured of his GERD and gassiness but he is on its way. After I posted my previous posting I realized that when I prepared that Nat Phos 6x for him, instead of putting 1/2 tablet I put 1 tablet for some doses. So that explains the worsening of his symptoms when I wrote you.
        As you said, it’s very important to follow your specific instructions to get results.
        I breastfeed Derick and my diet is mostly grain/veggie diet due to Derick’s food allergies and intolerance. For my gassiness can I take Nux Vomica? What will be the dose?
        I will keep you updated on Derick’s progress.
        Thank you so much.

        Glad to note that the Nux Vomica helped Derick. Do not however give him more than 2 doses in a day as Nux Vomica is not to be used often unlike Nat Phos 6x which is usually well tolerated, although I see that you have overdosed Derick with some untoward results.
        
        I would not advice you to also take Nux Vomica as the Nat Phos 6x alone should be sufficient for you.
        
        You can up the dose to 3-4 tablets safely.

        Joe,
        
        Greetings to you. Derick has not made more progress lately but he is not getting worse. His GERD symptoms are feasible. Still people around us are impressed of his recovery with your therapy since his GERD was really bad before we started. I guess at this point we just keep giving him 1/2 tablet of Nat Phos 6x after each feeding, 1/4 teaspoon of Nux Muvica twice daily and 1/2 teaspoon of Arnica 30c. Or should we change his dosages?
        Joe, my husband gets migraine headaches, backache and other type of muscle pains very often. What can he take to feel better? or what diet/lifestyle changes should he make? Also, my mom’s friend has a severe case of body psoriasis and she asked me if you could help her. Thank you so much for your help.

        Continue with your medication for Derick till you find that he can do without them. Try to reduce the Nat Phos dosage when you feel that he can do without. You referred to Nux MUVICA and it should read Nux Vomica 30c. Stop this as soon as possible as it it a deep acting remedy.
        
        Migraine is treated with Bryonia 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily till the cluster type headaches and Migraine are stabilized.
        
        Psoriasis cannot be helped by me.

Dear Mr.Joe
Greetings to you. I am on AMN for multiple fibroids and on Arnica 30 wet dose.It’s been nearly 6 weeks.
I have been having a stabbing pain in the right groin, for the last two days, which sometimes makes walking and bending painful. And fatigue and aching in the the legs. BP is 140/80.
Will continued use of Arnica 30 help?
My hairfall is almost nil, Mr Joe.
Many thanks.

  I am concerned at your report:
  
  “I have been having a stabbing pain in the right groin, for the last two days, which sometimes makes walking and bending painful. And fatigue and aching in the the legs.”
  
  I would like you to take a US Scan ASAP and report the findings.
  
  If your Fibroid has not reduced as it should have, it is preferable to have laparoscopic surgery which is quite safe and only takes a few minutes and you are back home the day after. I know as a member of my staff also presented a Fibroid and she was in surgery as she did not respond to the AMN. She had 2 Fibroids removed and was back at work in 4 days.
  
  Continue with the Arnica and report your results ASAP.

Respected Dr Joe,

Let me thank you for being a very compassionate person, who is doing service to a large number of people with no personal gain.

My father 84 yrs age has been very active throughout his life, He is very regular in taking medicines, having food at correct time and a disciplined life. He is on pacemaker for last 12 years and is taking following medicines for High blood pressure, Asthma.

1. Tab Always
2. Tab Nebicart
3. Tab Astroresp

From the last 02 years we have noticed a change in his ability to remember names, places etc. The problem is more particular for recent happenings, while talking he finds himself at loss of words or sometimes start talking about matters which are not relevant to matter being discussed. He makes mistakes when speaking . He is able to do his daily needs like taking medicines, food, bathing, toilet etc, without help. His hands shake while holding things. I had taken him to a neuro-physician and a CT scan of the brain was performed. The report of CT scan indicates“ Mild senile cerebral atrophy”. The doctor also carried out ” Addenbrookes cognitive examination ( ACE-R)” and his score is 57/100.

The doctor has prescribed following medicines,

1. Donep 5mg
2. Betacap

After taking the medicines there is an improvement is shaking of hands but no improvement is noticed in the problem of loss of memory. The other problem is of constipation and not passing stool each day. If he does not pass stool, then he gets very worried and will always feel fullness of stomach. He is,

1. very particular in his meals, eats selectively
2. does not drink much water
3. Very sensitive to cold, ( sore throat & cough)
4. No diabetes
5. Walks regularly
6. Sleeps well, maintain his time to go to bed
7. Stomach very sensitive, get bloating or feeling of heaviness

I going through the forum post , it seems there is treatment possible in homeopathy for his condition related to dementia. Please suggest a treatment to follow, we live in India. Please note that allopathic medicines for his condition related to hypertension & asthma will continue.

  I don’t think that it wise today to prescribe any remedy for your 84 year old father other than for his mental problems and his constipation.
  
  I prefer not to treat his Asthma and his Hypertension for the moment.
  
  The remedies are as follows:
  
  Mental
  Arnica 1M in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
  
  Constipation
  Nat Phos 6x dose 3-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 2 meals.
  
  I note that he does not drink much water but you must impress on him that if he wishes to overcome his constipation he must drink at least 3 liters of water daily.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

Dear Mr Joe,
I am writing to you in the hope that you might have something to help my condition.

I am a 36 year old Woman.
I have been suffering from Rheumatoid Arthritis for the past 7 years.
It started just within a 2-3 weeks of giving birth to my first child. Lots of aches and pains started – my joints were swollen and I could hardly move. Tests revealed I had RA. RA factor of 1000+, high ESR and CRP.
I was put on 10 mg of steroids per day and lots of painkillers and started with a dose of Minocycline ( a type of antibiotic) 2 times a day Monday.Wednesday and Friday.
I was eventually able to wean myself off the steroids and the painkillers and was able to continue only with minocycline.
I was sort of stable. Blood work had slowly inched its way to semi normalcy.

3.5 years ago I had another child – and this time the disease again returned with a vengeance. Again I started on 10 mg of steroid which I have weaned down to 1.75mg per day. Also I had to take painkillers to control the horrible pain. I also restarted the Minocycline – but this time it did not help that much. In the last 3 years – I have tried allopathy, ayurveda, Homeopathy – without much relief.
Currently most of my joints like fingers, wrist, elbow, shoulder, knees.ankles are affected. Pain and swelling in almost all joints . Stiffness in most joints – and loss of range of motion in many joints.
Knee, wrist and elbow are worst affected. Find it tough to climb stairs. Cannot even think of sitting on the floor ( only chair is). Cant sit on very low stool. I also have difficulty bending wrist.
I have noticed that I feel ok in hot weather – dont sweat at all. My condition worsens with rain and cold and cold breeze.

Will you be able to help me with some remedy? I am not even asking for a cure . I am just asking for something which would reduce my pain and stop further destruction of joints.
Regards

  Rheumatoid arthritis is a very difficult disease to treat unlike Osteo arthritis of which I have treated many cases successfully.Patients with osteoarthritis whom I have treated, have often indicated to me that on the 3rd day into my therapy, they experienced considerable relief from the acute pain that they had been suffering for years on end, and within a week the pain that there had been experiencing seemed to vanish.
  
  My default remedy for Osteo Arthritis is Argentum Metallicum 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
  I have had reports from a few patients suffering from Rheumatoid Arthritis to whom I prescribed this remedy that they too observed some relief of their acute pain and it is my hope that you too will respond in the same manner.
  
  In your case I would also like to add :
  
  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily and
  Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets taken immediately after each of 3 meals daily.
  
  For your acute pain you can also take
  
  Hypericum 200c in the Wet dose taken every 3-4 hours which will depend on your response to this medication.
  
  Please follow the instructions below to make the Wet dose.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.

  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.
  
  Report your response to my therapy weekly or more often as needed.
  
  You will STOP all other medication you are taking today for your ailment when you start my therapy as all other drugs will antidote it.

    Dr Joe,
    THank you for the prompt response. I will procure the medication from the local homeo shop and get back to you once I start the medication.
    
    1.I have a small query . I live in India – can I use “bottled water” sold at super markets?
    2.Another question – after preparing the remedy in the 500 ml bottle and taking 1 capfull of the remedy – should i throw out the remaining solution? Or should I take 1 cap from the same bottle for my next dose?
    3.Currently I am on some Painkillers, some homepoathic medication and 1.75mg of steroids per day. I will able to stop the painkiller and other home medicine immediately. However stopping long time steroid use suddenly can cause lots of problems. Atbest I will need to taper off the medicine gradually.
    In such a scenario – do you suggest that I wait till i wean off the steroid before I start your medicines?

      I shall answer your questions below your texts:
      
      1.I have a small query . I live in India – can I use “bottled water” sold at super markets?
      YES YOU CAN.
      2.Another question – after preparing the remedy in the 500 ml bottle and taking 1 capfull of the remedy – should i throw out the remaining solution? Or should I take 1 cap from the same bottle for my next dose?
      YOU WILL USE THE ENTIRE CONTENTS OF THE BOTTLE BEFORE YOU START ON A NEW BOTTLE. FYI A 500ML BOTTLE OF WATER SHOULD LAST YOU ABOUT 2 MONTHS.
      3.Currently I am on some Painkillers, some homepoathic medication and 1.75mg of steroids per day. I will able to stop the painkiller and other home medicine immediately. However stopping long time steroid use suddenly can cause lots of problems. Atbest I will need to taper off the medicine gradually.
      YOU MUST TAPER OFF YOUR STEROIDS BUT I MUST ADMIT THAT I CANNOT UNDERSTAND THE REASON WHY YOU HAVE BEEN PRESCRIBED BOTH THE PAIN KILLERS AND THE STEROIDS.
      In such a scenario – do you suggest that I wait till i wean off the steroid before I start your medicines?
      YOU CAN START ON MY MEDICATION WHILE YOU ARE ON THE DRUGS AND STEROIDS AS THE SOONER YOU USE THEM THE BETTER FOR YOU.
      
      I SHALL AWAIT YOUR RESPONSE TO MY THERAPY WITH INTEREST.

        Dear Dr Joe,
        Thanks for the interest in my case. The reason I have been prescribed both painkillers and steroids is maybe because my disease isnt controlled with just one of them ( actual answer is I dont know why).
        
        I have another doubt . You said “Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets taken immediately after each of 3 meals daily dose 2 tablets taken immediately after each of 3 meals daily” . Usually I take all homepathic medication half an hour away from food . I just need to confirm that you want me to take Nat Phos 6x just after the meal (without the 30 minute gap).

        Nat Phos 6x is prescribed to accelerate the digestive process and I did so to observe if it can help with your main ailment, RA. I have included all remedies that I feel can help it and although NP is not used for RA or for OA, it is one remedy used for Gout which in a way is related to the bones. This is one of those remedies that will never be prescribed for Gout or for OA or for RA by a classical homeopath but the main feature of this remedy is that it is absolutely safe in use and it is just possible that it can help with your RA.
        
        Quite frankly I do not think that any Classical homeopath would even dream of treating RA as it is caused by the Bacteria Beta Hemoliticus Streptococcus which the body attacks in defense but your case is a good illustration of how the body’s defenses also attack the organs in an auto immune response thereby causing damage to the joints with RA, or Kidneys with Nephritis or can even damage to the Heart muscles causing serious Cardiac problems which can eventually result in a MI or Myocardial Infarction aka Heart Attack.
        
        This problem could have been avoided by using Penicillin at the beginning of the infection which would have followed a Cough.
        
        Do you remember having had a bad cough which was left untreated some years ago?

        Dear Dr Joe
        I am willing to try anything and everything that can help me with my condition ….
        No harm in trying the Nat Phos 🙂 Who knows it just might help.
        I too have heard of the “strep” origin theory of RA. I really dont remember having a bad cough within 2-3 months of starting with my RA – just that my RA was triggered by childbirth and was again re-triggered when I had my second baby.
        I suppose that is why the Minocycline (antiobiotic) therapy during the first 3 years of my disease had worked.
        Anyways – thats all in the past – tomorrow is a new day . Let me get the medicines from the pharmacy start taking them – and will report my progress back on this page.
        Thank you for your time. May God bless you.

        You have solved the mystery as to the reason why you have presented RA twice with every baby you were blessed with.
        
        My diagnosis of the reason for your RA is that you were infected with the Beta Hemolyticus Strep bacteria during childbirth. Your doctors were not able to diagnose the reason for your fever and other ailments that you suffered from after your first baby was born and gave you Minocyclin which is a Tetracyclin based antibiotic.
        
        This bacteria is sensitive only to a Penicillin based antibiotic and I am indeed very surprised as to how your doctor on two occasions after two babies, did not realize that the Minocyclin prescribed was not the antidote for RA.
        
        This is in my opinion, criminal neglect which you will have to pay for by constant RA problems throughout your life in the future.
        
        I would suggest that you consult a Specialist on RA and check if my diagnosis of the antibiotic is correct and if so, I would urge you to go on a long course of Penicillin preferably the long acting type, for about 6 months, even without using my therapy.

        Dear Dr Joe
        I did not present with any fever or cough during.after childbirth. The only manifestation was joint stiffness and joint pain. According to my then doctor – the strep infection when it attacks the throat can be treated with Penicillin – but once it has gone “underground” – has attacked joints – does not usually react to penicillin. After that it might respond to long term pulse dose of Minocycline/Climadycin – as per “Dr Browns Protocol”
        
        I am not sure any Rheumatologist in india will be wiling to put be on long – acting penicillin. They will try their best to but me on methodextrate or the newer biologics ….
        
        Let me try your remedy for few months and see if I get any relief ( again I do not expect a cure – some relief/reduction in symptoms is good enough for me).

        I just wanted to inform you that I got the medicines from the pharmacy.
        
        I got Nat Phos 6x manufactured by SBL. Is that ok? I am to take 2 pellets after breakfast/lunch/dinner. ( The doseage on the bottle says 4 tablets 3-4 times a day).
        
        I just wanted to confirm that i am taking the correct medication.

        Did you mean 2 TABLETS or Pellets?
        Please understand that I am very busy and do not have time to be asking questions which should not have arisen in the first place.
        
        You have mentioned Tablets and yet you state pellets. Pellets are usually about 2-3mm Ø.
        
        Avoid Coffee, all preserved meats like sausages ham and bacon.

        Sorry for the confusion – I meant “Tablets” . That is what is written on the medicine bottle .
        
        I do not drink coffee nor do I take tea. Neither do I generally take preserved meat ( Since I heard its not good for my RA ). I assume it is ok to take chicken/eggs and fish.

        Dear Dr Joe
        I started your medicines from Thursday and I thought I should give you a mini update on my condition.
        
        I was previously on some homeopathic medication ( which I stopped the day before I started your medicines). I am also on some painkillers and getting rid of them is proving to be a problem – as the pain is just too great. I am hoping as your medicines take more effect it will get easier.
        
        Evenings are manageable – in fact after 3 pm I am able to manage just fine – but the mornings are very bad. I have so much pain and stiffness and general feeling of sickness that it is very difficult for me to even get out of bed and do my normal routine. I have to literally force myself to get out of bed . ( I wouldn’t mind spending the whole morning in bed)
        
        Again I guess it is too early for your medicines to take full effect – and things might get better as they do. I just thought I would let you know.
        
        I will update again in 4-5 days .

        You have been on my therapy for only 2 days and it may be too early to expect any improvement in your status. Patients who presented OA have however reported that on the third day they noticed some distinct improvement in their pain levels in their knees. I shall await your report as soon as you discover any difference in your case which is of course different as you present RA.
        
        Did the Hypericum 200 help you ? It usually reduces the pain level within about 20 minutes of the first dose.

        I totally agree that it is too early for me to expect any change. One cannot expect a disease festering for 7 years to go away in 2 days.
        I am not totally sure whether the Hypericum 200 is helping me. I really didn’t notice the pain reducing much within 20 minutes of the dose. However I will try to observe now and get back to you on this ( my gut feeling is it is not helping much so far – specially in the mornings).

        It seems to me that the pain you experience from your RA is indeed acute and I only hope that you do not use any powerful analgesic to treat it as it can result in serious damage to the Liver.
        
        Hypericum is absolutely safe in use and I would suggest that you use the 6c potency in the Wet dose to observe if it can help which the 200c did not.

        You are indeed right. The pain from my RA is indeed acute and prevents me from doing all the thousand things that I would have liked to have done. I will take the 6C dose and report back whether it is helping with the pain control.
        In the meantime I am continuing to take the other medicines you prescribed and will report back to you in a weeks time ( or earlier if I need to report any changes).

        I am sorry to learn that Hypericum in the various potencies is not able to control your pain.
        
        It usually does in other cases very successfully and what is more, it is very safe unlike powerful drugs which may reduce your pain but at what cost to the organs of your body like your Liver and Kidneys.

Hello Dr. Joe.

I didn’t know where to post so i guess this is as good of a place as any.

I have some problems with my left big toe on my foot. It looks like i hit it pretty hard some time ago and now most of it is dead but there is a new living nail growing that is pushing the old one out. Problem is that i also have some sort of bacterial process below my nail, somewhere near its root. It swollen, red, and its oozing pus and blood. It is like that for a couple of months now and nothing i tried made it better and i used many folk remedies, ointments, homeopathy..

I am now planning a visit to the surgeon so he can open it up and drain the pus. My problem is called PARONYCHIA

It looks something like this but on my big toe, not on my finger http://commonsensealternatives.com/wp-content/uploads/image/paronychia1.jpg

Again, the surgeon will probably cut in and drain out all the pus, i am not sure if he will extract the nail itself, but i was told that pain after toe nail surgery is very strong so i am coming to you with a question what should i use to lower the pain after the surgery?

I have Arnica 30 C in alcohol solution from Boiron. I know you often recommend it but how should i use it? Thanks.

  I am glad that you sent me the photograph of your feet.
  
  I do not think that surgery is indicated at this juncture as I believe that it will only exacerbate your problem and will cause you untold agony which is so very unnecessary. Medicine does not have any recourse to curing problems like yours without surgery and it would be interesting to observe your case in 2 weeks.
  
  Your remedies are noted below:
  
  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily
  
  Silicea 6x dose 2 tablets taken twice daily
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.
  
  Do not use a closed shoe as this will only make a bad situation worse. Keep the toe bandaged to keep dust and bacteria out.
  
  Report progress in a week or earlier as is necessary.

Hello again. Thank you for the fast reply.

I already tried with Silica 6X, 5-6 days, taking it 3 times daily but there was no improvement. I also tried with Silicea 200 C, again, no improvement.

I used medicinal clay that containts 70% natural silica and changed it every 1.5 hours for one day, no changes. I use 3-4 kinds of ointments including the black ointment for horses-there were no changes. I used a folk remedy made out of smashed onion,salt and alcohol with no changes. I used a fresh leaf of a herb that is supposed to suck out anything that doesn’t belong in the skin. This leaf manages to keep things under control but as soon as i remove it things tend to get worse.

I haven’t tried Arnica so far, but i have to say, my moral is very low. I am afraid if i ignore this problem any longer it can get worse.

I haven’t taken any antibiotics even though a doctor prescribed them to me. I did not wish to poison my entire body.

I have Arnica OINTMENT, should i also apply it topically on my toe alongside the wet dose of Arnica? Should i also drink Silica containing tea-s (horsetail, nettle..)

  Are you of Greek origin?
  
  Suggest you give my therapy aka “Joepathy” a fair chance to help your problem for which I note you have already used Silicea 6x with no success. I believe that this is due to your not taking Arnica 30c as prescribed.
  
  Arnica is essential in a case like yours where it is necessary that the damaged tissue, which is exuded from the lesion by the action of Nat Phos as pus, which comprises dead bacteria and body tissue, is replaced by the growth of new tissue. Arnica has this unbelievable function of replacing tissue and I have been taking it nightly in the Wet dose since 1996. At age 83 I do not show the standard signs of my advanced age and my mental faculties are as they have always been for the last 70 years. I am mentioning this fact to give you the courage necessary to give my therapy a fair chance to help you.
  
  I would also like you to make another bottle of Arnica 6c which you will use to keep the lesion damp through a gauze bandage which you will use for about 10 minutes per hour directly over your lesion, to enable the Arnica 6c remedy water to percolate through the tissue of your toe to hopefully accelerate the healing process. If you do not experience any negative effect, you may increase the timing to twice hourly.
  
  Remember do not use a closed shoe.
  
  Please make up your mind that you are NOT ABOUT TO LOSE YOUR TOE by using my Joepathy.
  
  Do not use Arnica Ointment as it will be counterproductive. This is only of use if you do not have any open wound and have some ache in the joint.

I also washed my feet in himalaya salt, and in horsetail grass water with no effect. I also went to a pedicure and she clipped of sides of my nails to help better drainage. She told me that i should see a surgeon since if left untreated, it could lead to a bigger infection and there can even be a risk of losing the toe. I must say that i am worried since nothing worked so far..

Okay Dr. Joe. I will do as you say! One question, am i allowed to use the leaf of that herb i mentioned before?

I don’t know its latin name nor its English name, but in my country it is called ”tentacle”, like on squids because it ”sucks things out”.

When i put it on, it shrivels my skin and makes it less tender, less painful. Always helps but never heals completely.

I am afraid that i have damaged the root of my nail and that it is because of this pus is forming now.

I have to say that condition started as very benign, i haven’t spotted it in the winter, there was no pain and no pus, just a bit red. Than i noticed my nail isn’t growing but after a 2 more months it started to get worse, oozing pus etc.

I am not wearing shoes, but i am wearing socks. I always bandage it with soft gauze and soft tape made for this occassions which doesn’t have glue but sticks to itself.

Okay, i understand. I will not use the leaf. I will just use Arnica 30C in wet dose and Silica 6X in pellets.

I have ordered Arnica 6C from my country and also Silica 6X, because the one i have now is from U.S.A. and i am afraid that it maybe lost its curative behavior if it went through customs x-rays or something similar.

I have to inform you that i canceled my consult with the surgeon that was scheduled for this evening. I will give Joeopathy, arnica and silica a fighting chance, at least by the end of the weekend, that is 3 full days.

I am very hopeful that in that time things will switch for the better.

Can i apply Arnica 30 C on the gauze and on my finger until Arnica 6 C arrives? In the meantime i should just keep a dry gauze on my finger and change it when it gets dirty from the pus?

You didn’t understand me well. I am not expecting a cure in 3 days, just a positive sign that things are going for the better and not for worse. A slightest sign that things are going for the better.

In how many days do you suggest first signs can be seen? Please forgive me if i seem impatient, its just, after so many things i tried it seems that it has taken a token from my mental powers.

  Thank you for presenting your case in a manner that I do wish that other patients will follow as it makes my job so very much easier.
  
  Your mother’s Vaginal Cancer
  I note that you seem resigned to inheriting this disease. Although your mother has suffered from it, you do not necessarily have to expect it in the manner that you seem to be doing. Make up your mind that you will outlive Cancer.
  
  If you believe in God, Prayer also helps!
  
  Please read the article by my cousin Dr Cynthia Jayasuriya on:
  
  CANCER ARTICLE
  http://www.sundayobserver.lk/2011/07/24/fea12.asp
  
  Cynthia cured herself of Cancer by eating Manioc or Cassava.
  I do not know where you live and if you can also get Manioc you are also advised to eat it on a daily basis to ensure that you will also avoid the tendency to this disease.
  
  Also visit:
  
  http://www.vitaminb17.org/foods.htm
  
  http://www.anticancerinfo.co.uk/prevention.htm
  
  The first link will give you a list of more food that can help anyone to avoid Cancer.
  
  You have listed your other ailments as:
  “pain in back & body joints, always feeling weak or laziness, incomplete sleep, not feeling fresh after sleep, feels headache, sadness, depressive feelings.Some times gets severe gas in stomach.”
  
  The 2 remedies I shall prescribe for the above are:
  
  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
  Arnica will also help your black patches on your face and also Alopecia
  
  For your gastric problems:
  
  Nat Phos 6x dose 3 tablets taken after lunch and dinner
  
  You will have to consult a doctor and get a diagnosis of the reason for your joint pain which can be due to Osteo Arthritis for which I shall prescribe a specific remedy which usually cures the patient in a week.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.
  
  Report your response in a week.

I live in Gujarat India. I shall try to find what Manoic is known in India or in local market. i had earlier visited a orthopedic, he suggested to take osteophos tabs to prevent osteoporosis since I have under gone complete Hysterectomy and this causes hormone deficiency. Some painkillers were also prescribed but I did not take them since this seemed to me a temporary solution. I have also not taken the drug osteophos.

Can I use underground water after boiling to make wet dose? We use the underground water for drinking in our village.

  Use my therapy ASAP even though very late and see how it can help you.
  
  The Manioc is ESSENTIAL in your case with your family history. Apricot seeds which may be available in your part of the world are also a substitute. Study all the website links I gave you.
  
  You can use ground water after boiling and cooling as long as it does not have any trace chemicals which some parts of India have in excess like Arsenic.

Dear Sir

I took your email from ABCHomeoPathy.com and I see you are blessed by God with knowledge and you are helping humanity. I do need some time from your busy schedule.

I am 32 Male, I really need your advice and sympathetic consideration for few minutes.

I had UTI with blood clots and smelly urine, I was given antibiotics by my doctor. It went away after first dose but I completed the course.

We are trying for baby and soon after having intercourse I started feeling same burning and irritation feelings but no blood this time. Doctor tested and confirmed its UTI again gave a higher Antibiotics this time and it seems to be working again.

I did check many posts and professionals have suggested

CANTHARIS 300

I have got it but I am not sure about these things

1. Should I Continue Antibiotics and start CANTHARIS 300 as well ?
2. Should I stop Antibiotics and start taking CANTHARIS 300
3. In either case, what dosage should I get ? CANTHARIS 300 is in pellets form.

Waiting for your kind reply and big thanks for your time in advance.

If you want further info then please let me know.

  I do not think that Cantharis can help your problem which is obviously due to some infection in your UT.
  
  However since you have it, Cantharis 200 NOT 300, it will not hurt to use it as prescribed and report results.

  I see that you still speak of Cantharis 300. This is not a standard potency and I would like to know what the brand is and where it is made.
  
  Continue the AB and indicate what it is. Was an ABST test done before it was prescribed? (Antibiotic sensitivity test). Please be advised that I cannot help with your UTI which will have to be CURED by your doctor before I can advice you with a Homeopathic remedy. I must have your doctor’s diagnosis to help me to prescribe the remedy.
  
  Take the Cantharis since you seem keen to do so but it will not help you.

Dear Mr.Joe.
Greetings.
I am on AMN and Arnica 3o wet dose for fibroids and pigmentation. I feel good, no abdominal discomfort .the dark circles are there and will take time I know.
My BP is about 150/85 and I’ve developed pain in the knees, while climbing stairs. Do I need any another medicines?
Thank you for all your advice.

  Argentum Metallicum 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily is my default remedy for Osteo Arthritis. But you must be sure that you present it. The mere fact that you have pain when climbing stairs is not a positive diagnosis.
  
  I would however caution you against taking it for fear that it can affect your Fibroids which seem to be under control with the AMN 3x.
  
  Your BP is not of any concern. Forget it.
  
  What’s news of your groin pain?

Mr. Joe … you remembered the groin pain! I’ve almost forgotten about it! I get discomfort only occasionally. I’m pretty lazy so some walking should help my knees, dont you think? Dont want anything to come in the way of my fibroids.
Many thanks, Mr.Joe. God bless

Dear Joe,
I easily get sunburn even if I am out in the sun for a short span of time Sunscreen does not help me much. I get swelling on my face and skin becomes very dry. I drink lot of water. Is there any Homeo medicine to help me out. Kindly also clarify if honey or lime water is
allowed with homeo medicine

  Your remedy is Glonoinum 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily and made as follows;
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

  Glad to note that you have read my articles on Homeopathy & More which is a Homeopathic Forum that a friend of mine and I established in 2006. I visit it but not on a daily basis as there is no automatic emal alert which is essential to maintain the continuity of treatment of a patient.
  
  Suggest you read the many articles and posts on my website as you may gather information that is not normally included in the classical homeopathic texts which were good over 100 years ago but are not so relevant today.
  
  I presume that you have read my Joepathy for Diabetes Type I & II but I shall copy my instructions below for you.
  
  I shall copy below my default therapy aka “Joepathy” which many Diabetics are using today to control their BS levels. The remedy I have prescribed is Arnica 3c in the Wet dose which is taken twice daily.
  
  Type I patients have confirmed that they discovered their BS levels were reduced by about 20-30% within a day of their starting on this therapy. One has confirmed that his BS level reduced by 75% in about a month and he was able to reduce the Insulin he was using by this amount.
  
  Mag Phos 6x dose 2 tablets taken thrice daily have also helped to reduce BS levels and you can add this to your daily dosage.
  
  Please note that you will most likely notice a dip in your BS level within 24 hours of starting my therapy and you will then have to reduce your dosage of Insulin as it must be maintained around 110. Daily tests for Blood Sugar are essential.
  
  Type II patients will also have to monitor their BS levels on a daily basis to ensure that their BS is stabilized at around 110 and they will reduce the dosage of the drugs that they are using daily to maintain this level. The Arnica 6c and the Mag Phos 6x are taken as prescribed.
  
  Cinnamon powder is also useful to reduce Diabetes while Okra or Bandakka which grows in the tropics also helps to reduce BS levels. Okra is used by cutting up a tender pod and inserting it into a glass of water which is left overnight and the water is drunk on an empty stomach the morning after.
  
  The therapy I have prescribed to many patients is as follows:
  
  Arnica 3c in the Wet dose is taken twice daily and the following protocol is used to make the Wet dose. It is essential that the patient’s BS level is monitored daily for a week to observe how the addition of Arnica to the standard drugs like Metformin reduce the BS level which should be maintained at around 110. In the case of Type II Diabetics the Units of Insulin used can be reduced to keep the BS level at this optimum level of 100.
  
  Mag Phos 6x dose 2 tablets taken thrice daily before meals.
  
  Exercise is essential and the patient is expected to avoid Sugar and reduce Starch and to avoid the consumption of Alcohol completely.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.
  
  Report progress weekly.

Hi Joe,
I was wondering if you could advise me on what to take for a skin condition with all the associated symptoms, I have Perioral Dermatitis, for the last 15 years!! Little red bumps around my mouth, chin but I also have fatigue, blotchy skin, very dark brown circles around my eyes, dry skin and for the past 9 years an increase and always steady hair loss problem. I have taken and tried all the cleanses, herbs, vitamins, seen homeopathic specialists, chinese herbalists, naturopaths and I am myself a Registered Nutritional Advisor. My skin condition has improved greatly throughout the years but not completely cured and I never really feel 100% healthy even with my healthy diet and lifestyle.

Your advice and help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

  This is the remedy I prescribe for Acne which will hopefully also help your Perioral Dermatitis. It has helped Rosacea and Styes. It works by increasing the blood supply throughout the body and will help you by increasing the blood supply to the skin on your face affected by Perioral Dermatitis which you state you have suffered from for the last 15 years.
  
  My observations on treating problems like yours confirms that the patient observes some relief as early as in 3 days and the lesions of Acne dry out in a week.
  
  I shall observe if my therapy aka “Joepathy” helps you and how long it will take to do so.
  
  The remedy which has helped many is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily and also applied directly on the face as often as is possible to keep the lesions damp.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in a 5ml Alcohol pack aka Liquid Dilution in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake it hard to produce bubbles. This is homeopathic succussion and must be done every time before a capful of the bottle which is the dose is taken as directed.
  
  Please post your response to the Arnica therapy in a week.

Hi Joe,

This is Vishnu. I heard you from the internet.

I am having 3 bowel movements (soft stools) per day from the past 8 months. I used to have just one bowel movement per day.

Two in the morning (around 7:15 am and 8:00am before breakfast) and one in the evening around 6:30pm. I used to have just one bowel movement per day.

Also If I eat Roti (tortilla), I am having bowel movement immediately after eating.

I used Natrum Phos 6X and liquid arnica for a month but did not improve.

Please suggest any homeopathy medicine for this.

Just one clarification. My stools are well formed.

  You have nothing to be concerned about as you state that you have only 3 bowel motions (BM) daily which are WELL FORMED.
  
  Continue to take the Nat Phos 6x but do not exceed 2 tablets as this remedy too can increase your BM’s.
  
  If you find that eating Roti makes you want to go, you can avoid it.
  
  It is possible that you suffer from some worm infection in your gut. You can take a Vermicide to eradicate the infection which can be the cause of your frequent BM’s.

  It is very likely that your daughter’s yellow teeth are due to her being given Tetracycline when she was a child when her permanent teeth were being formed in her gums. There is unfortunately nothing that can be done at this stage today.
  
  Her receding gums will be helped by Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily but this will take a few months to be noticeable although the recession of her gums will be first noticed in about 3 months.
  
  Warts can be treated with Antim Crud 30c alternated every other day with Causticum 30 both in the Wet dose taken twice daily.

As advised I am giving Arnica 1M in liquid dose to my father ( Age 84 yrs) for his memeory loss conditions. It has been 1 month since we started the medicine, we do not see any improvement, can we continue the treatment ? will there be any side effects?

  I note that your dad has not responded to my therapy since he first took Arnica 1M for the last month.
  
  It is possible that the reason for him not responding is due to the 3 other drugs that he is taking today which you listed:
  1. Tab Always
  2. Tab Nebicart
  3. Tab Astroresp
  
  I do not know for which ailment he is taking these 3 drugs.
  
  The Pacemaker fitted to his heart may also be another subsidiary cause.
  
  There is little that I can do for him at this late stage in his life and it is best to let him continue with his drugs even though I suspect that they are the real cause of his mental problems. He can continue with the Arnica 1M in the Wet dose as it is perfectly harmless.
  
  For what it is worth, I shall copy my default remedy for Asthma which you may consider using for him. If you do use it you can stop the Asthma drug and observe how he responds.
  
  I shall copy my therapy for Asthma below:
  
  Your remedy is
  
  Nat Sulph 6c in the Wet dose taken just before bed which you will take nightly for some time into the future. You will only take ONE dose nightly. If however you do not experience any relief which can happen if you are a chronic Asthmatic, you will please report your status to me and I may then prescribe another dose to be taken making a total of 2 doses per day.
  
  You will report your response weekly or more often as may be necessary.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.
  
  Steam is also important and it must be inhaled for about 5 minutes twice daily. You can get the steaming device used in beauty saloons for facial treatment. You will most likely cough up a lot of phlegm immediately after steaming.
  
  Physiotherapy is also indicated after steaming to rid the lungs and airways of the phlegm which is also the cause of Asthma. You will lay flat across your bed with your chest slightly elevated above your head which is hanging down over the side. You will get someone to tap your chest on the back from the waist up to your neck and you should find that your phlegm will drool out in cupfuls.
  
  Exercise is essential for you and you will drink at least 3 liters of water daily.
  
  You can also blow into a baloon to help strengthen your lungs.
  
  If you get an acute attack of Asthma which you would treat with a Nebulizer you will take Ars Alb 200c in the Wet dose and this will usually bring relief within about 15 minutes or less. In the event of the first dose not working you may take another about an hour later. Please note that the maximum dosage is not to exceed 3 doses 12 hours.

Dear Dr Joe
I have 2 children aged 8 and 4 . Both suffer from allergy related asthma. WE stay in Bangalore (with dry cool climate) and the pollen season is bad for the kids. Also any cold also leads to an asthma attack for the kids. For the 8 year old it seems to be getting better with age ( touch wood he is having lesser attacks now). However the 4 year old is still very prone to asthma attacks – and often gets to such a bad stage that she needs nebulization. Can you suggest any remedy?
Also my wife has been suffering from type 2 diabetes for the last 1 year and is on medication like metmorfin. What is the remedy for her?

Thank you Dr Joe in advance for your time.

        Where in the world do you live? India?
        I have been informed that Arnica 3c is hard to come by in India but that 3x is available freely.
        3c is freely available in the US and the continent but not in the UK.
        
        Some patients who are using the 3x reported even better results to the 3c. You may also get a bottle and keep it for comparison with the 3c in a few weeks.
        
        If her BS drops quickly all you do is to reduce the drugs she is taking to keep BS around 100-115.

        June is a time of drastic weather change in Bangalore – it rains a bit and suddenly summer ends and is replaced by a cold and windy weather with occasional rains. This sudden weather change causes cold/infection in everyone. Every year my kids fall sick at this time – it starts with a cough/cold and then progresses to a full blown case of asthma at times. Is there anything to boost their immunity and prevent the kids from falling sick frequently at this time?

        I am treating a number of children today who were taking various dangerous drugs for their Asthma in the past some who took up to 6 inhalers daily and were nebulized 2-3 times weekly. All these children DO NOT USE ANY INHALER TODAY.
        
        I shall note below the therapy for Asthma which you can use for your children PROVIDED that they are suffering from Asthma as diagnosed by a competent doctor.
        
        I shall copy my therapy for Asthma below:
        
        Your remedy is
        
        Nat Sulph 6c in the Wet dose taken just before bed which you will take nightly for some time into the future. You will only take ONE dose nightly. If however you do not experience any relief which can happen if you are a chronic Asthmatic, you will please report your status to me and I may then prescribe another dose to be taken making a total of 2 doses per day.
        
        You will report your response weekly or more often as may be necessary.
        
        The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
        
        Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
        Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
        Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
        Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
        Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.
        
        Steam is also important and it must be inhaled for about 5 minutes twice daily. You can get the steaming device used in beauty saloons for facial treatment. You will most likely cough up a lot of phlegm immediately after steaming.
        
        Physiotherapy is also indicated after steaming to rid the lungs and airways of the phlegm which is also the cause of Asthma. You will lay flat across your bed with your chest slightly elevated above your head which is hanging down over the side. You will get someone to tap your chest on the back from the waist up to your neck and you should find that your phlegm will drool out in cupfuls.
        
        Exercise is essential for you and you will drink at least 3 liters of water daily.
        
        You can also blow into a baloon to help strengthen your lungs.
        
        If you get an acute attack of Asthma which you would treat with a Nebulizer you will take Ars Alb 200c in the Wet dose and this will usually bring relief within about 15 minutes or less. In the event of the first dose not working you may take another about an hour later. Please note that the maximum dosage is not to exceed 3 doses 12 hours.

        I do hope that you have followed my instructions on giving your children the Eupat Perf 30c only in the Wet dose which I have specified to you many times.
        
        Do not give the remedy which is in Ethanol, direct from the bottle. Use just 3 drops in a bottle of water.

        Dear Dr Joe
        I have made a wet dose as per your suggestion ( 3 drops in a 500 ml bottle of mineral water) and that is what I am giving the kids.
        The weather however is very bad ( too cold in the early morning when the kids go to school) and the 4 year old has started coughing a little already ( a little not enough to be alarming). The 8 year old is absolutely fine (touchwood) so far.
        both the kids are very excited about getting water from a bottle as their medicine
        Regards

        Keep me advised of their progress.

        Dr Dr Joe
        I have been giving the kids Eupatorium Perfoliatun 30c in wet dose daily for about a week now. Now shall i start giving them weekly twice? Please advice.
        I have been giving the Nat Sulph in wet dose at bed time – and the steam and physiotherapy as suggested – but there was no cold so far – and I think that is why there was no phlegm either.
        From yesterday both kids seem to have come down with a bad cold. I think now I may get phlegm out of them .
        
        One more question – since there is a cold there is 90 % possibility that it might graduate to breathing difficulty ( asthma attack). That time I should give them Ars Alb 200c. How many times a day can I use this? ( I just want to know the answers before hand in case there is a crisis at an odd hour)
        
        Regards

        You may now give them Eupatorium Perf 200c in the Wet dose 3 times daily since your children have both caught colds and it will shorten their colds. You may instruct them to gargle with it to help better absorption and they can swallow it down aftewards. I am surprised that they both caught the virus in spite of being on the EP 30c.
        
        Continue with the Nat Sulph 6c routine which I prescribed a few days ago and keep the Ars Alb 200 in the Wet dose handy in the event of any Asthmatic attack which colds usually precipitate. Steam is essential to ensure that the mucous does not congeal in their lungs.
        
        Can you get any good Probiotic which you can give them as instructed on the label. This too shortens the viral infection.

        Dear Dr Joe
        Both the kids got the cold – and I gave them Eupatorium Perf 200c 3 times as you suggested. I also gave then their usual Nat Sulph – along with steam and physiotherapy. I got some phlegm out of them. However the cold/wheezing did not progress to the usual bad state(where they might have needed nebuliser)
        Now the cold has gone – how many times a week should I give the Eupat perf?

        You may give them the Eupat Perf 200 just once daily for 3 days but you will continue with the Nat Sulph 6c and the other therapy as usual.

        You have not reported on their response to my therapy and you now inquire what you should do after 3 days.
        
        You must understand that I cannot advice you until I have a report of your children’s response to my therapy.
        
        I remember that both are Asthmatics and you will continue with the medication prescribed and if their fever has subsided you can discontinue the Eupat Perf.

        Fever seems to have gone for both kids – so as per your suggestion I am stopping Eupat per.
        However since both the kids are asthmatic I am continuing with NAT sulph wet dose as well as steam and physiotherapy as suggested by you.
        The 8 year old boy seems to be doing good for the last few days. The 4 year old girl still seems to have some congestion.

        Glad to learn that both children have recovered from their Flu. Eupat Perf 200 is the Ultimate CURE for both Dengue and Virus borne fevers.
        
        Please note that it will take some months before their Asthma is stabilized. You can continue the Nat Phos 6c therapy daily in the Wet dose as this is absolutely safe and you will NOT use any Inhalers or other drugs for their Asthma.
        
        Report their individual responses as often as you wish to keep me in the picture.

I am kiran from India, I saw your website and also followed your posts in ABCHomeopathy and homeopathyandmore forums and found you can help me with my problems. Hence I tried to login in your site and request for help but I was unable to do that, hence I am trying to reach you through email.

I have couple of problems

1. Obesity
2. Dust Allergy (Some doctors said its astama)
3, Acidity
My personal details:

Age: 28
Sex:Male
Hight: 5’11
weight: 68
complexion: wheatish
Nationality: indian

Helth history:
Since my childhood, I did not had any serious helth problem, but at the age of 17 I got a urology problem where albumin used to pass from urine all the time (Some time it used to be 4+ in urine exam report). The problem was there for about 1 ½ year and its completely cured (Doctor confirmed after 6 months observation and multiple tests.). except that no other problems

Problem History and description:

I am covering the rest of 3 problems in 1 description as all the above problems start at a point of time and some how I feel they related to each other.

From my teen age I was thin and maintaining my weight between 45-50 KGs, But at my 23yrs age I dono what happened to me, I put on about 23 Kgs weight in a short span of 3 – 4 months, in that period I did not changed my food habits I did not do any workouts gym/exercise, I used to take alcohol occasionally (My alcohol habit started at the age of 19) even there is no change in my alcohol habit (I am mentioning this because I heared taking excess bear will give Obeicity ) so I don’t know what the exact reason. Since then all my problems started, I became fat (not very fat but compared to earlier its very huge for example my pant size earlier to this was 28 and after this it became 34 now currently 34 will be a bit tight for me)
First my problem started with joint pains immediately especially knee, shoulder and wrist. The pain is to the extent where I will not be able to go for bowl movements if I am using indian toilet(I feel the pain like my knee join will break) , I will not be able to lift a full bucket of water (30 lt) for couple of mins (I feel like my hand will get seperated) the problem is till now the same.
After some days I got problem with dust allergy, even small dust will make me problem to breath. Not just dust even if I rush/run I ll get breathing problem and dry cough. I need to take astalin (inhaler) to recover from this. Since I put on weight I started snoring in night. And I also get sinus problem regularly especially in summer.
And acid reflux problem is also started when I put on weight. my acidity problem will stay all the time some times the burning will be very high and sometimes it will be less. I will have movements in my stomach and I have gases releasing from my mouth most of the time. I will have vomit sensation when I am facing severe acidity and acidic liquids comes out from stomach in to mouth with burps. I fart a lot.

Please suggest me a cure for all my above problems.

Please let me know if there is any Homeopathic Questionnaire to diagonise my issue so that I can give answers.

And about to all, I want to bring a problem which my father is facing now.

he is 56 years age, since last 3 years he got problem with cough. especially in the nights he cough a lot, he will not be able to breath normally he will get up and sits in the midnight and keep on coughing. he will not be able to sleep the problem will be very high in cold weather. we went to couple of doctors and they gave some medicines which works for the time beeing. A doctor said its asthama. my father is against medicines he will not take medicines, I gave him astalin inheler which he will not use. he is a smoker he is smoking since his teenage which is very difficult for me to stop however he reduced the smoking a lot he will now smokes around 5 cigerets a day now. I am really worried about his problem now.

we did not have any family history having astama.

Please help in my dads case too.

  Kiran
  
  I am copying my default remedies for your problems which I shall treat as below:
  
  Weight
  
  Nat Phos 6x is the Ultimate Remedy to reduce the weight of anyone who would like to do so. It is absolutely safe in use unlike many drugs that are marketed today.
  
  The recommended dosage is 2-3 tablets taken immediately after each of 2-3 meals daily. The frequency of using it is left to the discretion of the patient and will depend on how quickly this excess weight needs to be reduced.
  
  Nat Phos works by accelerating the passage of food through the stomach into the gut and it works by preventing the excessive build up of gastric juice which comprises Hydrochloric Acid and Digestive Enzymes. It is only when food stagnates in the stomach for various reasons that the stomach increases the flow of the gastric juice into the stomach and this often results in this gastric juice refluxing upwards through the lower Esohagal Valve into the Esophagus and the throat which can result in an acid taste on the tongue with some burning of the delicate tissue in the throat often resulting in a hoarse throat.
  
  Many patients have confirmed that they experienced almost immediate relief within a few minutes after taking this remedy after a meal when the familiar bloating and other discomfort is eliminated..
  
  If the weight does not reduce within a week by 1kg, this can mean that it is not working due to a variety of reasons, the chief among them being the use of other drugs like those used for Diabetes and Hypertension or High Blood Pressure.
  
  Nat Phos 6x will only reduce weight if all other drugs are eliminated by the user.
  
  GERD Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease or Acidity
  
  Nat Phos 6x is again the remedy for your problem.
  You may take 2-3 tablets after every meal.
  
  Also take Arnica 6c in the Wet dose twice daily to help you to overcome your other problems.
  
  Your father’s Asthma
  
  HE MUST QUIT SMOKING IF HE WISHES TO SURVIVE,
  
  Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily will help him to do so.
  
  He will also take Nat Sulph 6c in the Wet dose twice daily for a month and reduce it to once daily thereafter.
  
  I shall copy my default therapy for Asthma below:
  
  I shall copy my therapy for Asthma below:

  If you get an acute attack of Asthma which you would treat with a Nebulizer you will take Ars Alb 200c in the Wet dose and this will usually bring relief within about 15 minutes or less. In the event of the first dose not working you may take another about an hour later. Please note that the maximum dosage is not to exceed 3 doses 12 hours.

  A you have already observed, the therapies that I have prescribed for you and your father have helped you both within a couple of days in a manner that no other remedies would have helped you so far
  
  You must QUIT smoking however difficult this may be, especially since you both are Asthmatics as all my efforts to help both you and your father will otherwise be in vain.

  You will first have to make up your mind that you wish to be CURED of your many problems with SMOKING AND ALCOHOL. In any case I do not think that you have any alternative other than QUITTING both your problems.
  
  Presuming that you wish to overcome them, you can take the following remedies:
  
  Arnica 3c in the Wet dose taken thrice daily. You may use the Arnica 6c if 3c is not available.
  
  Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salts: dose 3 tablets taken thrice daily after meals to reduce weight. The standard reduction is 1kg per week but this is only if the patient is not taking any drugs which you are doing. It is also possible that it may not work as you are a chain smoker.
  
  You must know that ALL these remedies do not represent an INSTANT FIX. I cannot also advise you about the danger of STOPPING the drugs you are taking as this too can backfire on you. Check your case with a doctor before you use my therapy.
  
  Remember that I can only try to help you to overcome your many problem which I also believe include overeating, judging by your weight. You are also advised to consult a Psychiatrist who can help to analyze your problems to help you to sort them out if you wish to live.
  
  I am happy that you have shown the desire to do so by asking for help but the choice is in your hands.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

        Glad to note that my therapy has helped you and your father. You will continue to take them for some more time in the future but at a reduced dosage as some remedies may cause aggravation when used indiscriminately.
        
        Did your mother suffer from either Chikungunya or Dengu and if so how long ago? Both diseases seem to repeat their characteristics months or even years later and I shall advice you further when I have this data.

Dear Joe,

My mother had similar symptoms Chikungunya about 3 years back, we went to doctor and diagnosed that its not Chikungunya. Since then she is suffering with these body pains. and those pains increased a lot in recent days. She didnt suffered with Dengu in past.

  The CURE for Chikungunya is Polyporous Pinicola 200 in the Wet dose.
  
  You may discover that it is not easily available in most Homeo Pharmacies and when you do get it you can give it to her thrice daily to observe her response.
  
  I have a case whom I cured way back in 2008 who presented the same symptoms and she was in hospital for 4 days last January and the doctors carried out various tests and certified that she was fine.
  
  She had reached the stage when she was unable to get out of her bed as she was virtually lifeless.
  
  I gave her PP 200 and she snapped back to her normal life to the surprise of her daughter who was herself a practicing GP in just a day.

      Remember that the pellets are only 10% as effective as the Liquid Dilution when used for the Wet dose. You are advised to get the LD from any pharmacy that stocks it ASAP if the experiment with the pellets does not help.

Joe,

I have enjoyed reading and trying several of your homeopathic remedies.

The 30c Arnica wet dose has produced some amazing results. One of the more interesting happenings occurred last week, about 5 weeks after beginning the daily dose of 1 tsp, twice. A very large and dark bruise with a white, flesh-colored center appeared on my left forearm. There was no tenderness and certainly no recent injury that would have caused such a serious bruise. I feel the arnica remedy must be clearing an old trauma.

I have also experienced delightful results with the wet dose of Calcarea Carbonica.

My question is, can any remedy be used in the wet dose and taken indefinitely? In particular, I was interested in the Silicea, which I noticed you recommended for acne scarring. I have faint white scars on my face from my teenage acne days. There is very minor pitting still visible, too. Would a wet dose of the Silicea taken for a long period of time clear these scars?

The other main remedy I was curious about is Sepia. Years ago it was suggested I take Sepia to pull me out of my tendency to hide. While I enjoy the clients I work with and I enjoy my family, I do not tend to find it relaxing and enjoyable to be around other people. I definitely prefer having my own space and freedom from being around other people. I notice I like to help people, but I do not tend to ask for help from others. So, is it possible to take the Sepia in the wet dose for an extended period of time. What strength would you recommend?

Thank you for being such an inspiration in the natural remedy community. I have shared your information with many of my clients who have also noticed improvements.

  Glad to note that you have visited my website and are using some of the remedies I have promoted therein.
  
  Your record of a “A very large and dark bruise with a white, flesh-colored center appeared on my left forearm. ” is of interest. A photograph would be useful for record purposes which you can send my by email on joedelivera@gmail.com.
  
  “I have also experienced delightful results with the wet dose of Calcarea Carbonica.”
  I cannot recall promoting Calc Carb. in my blog. I shall be interested to learn in what context you are taking it.
  
  Silicea is a deep acting remedy and is not recommended for daily use.
  
  You have inquired about taking Sepia as you state that you have found it relaxing you.
  I do not recommend it for daily use.
  
  Thank you for promoting my “This for That” Joepathy which I have used for the last 30+ years and which I have proved personally that it works far more positively than the classical homeopathy which is used by those who refuse to accept that it was only relevant at the time that it was first discovered by Hahnemann but is not so, today.

4. With exercises the pain increases so she has to stop exercises.

More Details as follows –

Chronic Back pain, stiffnes in maid back & waist. Makes it very difficult to move sideways while lying down and getting up. Sometimes pain moves to neck and sideways. Also there is occasional pain in upper chest (between shoulders) – costochondritis.
Earlier there used to be numbness in hands while sleeping – now it is not there after taking medicines

Presently taking the following medicines –
Bryonia 200 – for costocondritis problem.

Eupatorium perf 200 – due to fever & low blood platelets of 73000. Now it is 120000.

Sepia, Silicia,Aletris Ferinosa, Aurum mettalicum, fraxinus americana – for cysts, numbness in hands (prescribed by homeopaths)

Fe-min (combination medicine) – for low Hb.

Pain killer – for back pain

One thing I forgot to mention –

  Your wife’s case is very complicated and I am not confident that I can help her on my website.
  
  I note that she is already taking Bryonia 200 and Eupatorium Perfoliatum 200.
  Please make the following changes in these 2 remedies:
  
  Bryonia 30c in the Wet dose
  Eupat Perf 200c in the Wet dose
  Both remedies to be taken twice daily.
  
  Add
  
  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
  Hypericum 200 in the Wet dose taken every 3-4 hours to help her pain.
  Ferr Phos 6x dose 3 tablets taken thrice daily.
  
  STOP all other medication and report progress as often as you wish.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

  Argentum Metallicum 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily for her OA.

    Dear Joe,
    
    Presently she is having a throbbing pain and swelling in her right foot which is really disturbing her.
    I had Arnica 200 and have started wet dose of it from yesterday night. But as there was no improvements I gave her the dose every 1 hour. But just after the dose the pain is increasing and it is subsiding slowly thereafter.
    
    I am also giving her Cal Phos 6X (4 tablets x 3 times)
    
    Is the dosage correct? Or should I give anything else.
    
    The other medicines I am thinking to start as soon as this pain subsides.
    Is it ok ?

I am no doctor – but from your site only I learnt about Arnica and seeing her crying I just gave her Arnica. I don’t her to suffer.

        I presume you live in India where Homeopathic remedies are sold in almost every street and cannot understand your delay in getting them. You are advised NOT to give her any remedy like you seem to have done so far as the results can be counter productive.

Dear Joe,

This is for my father who is 76 years old.

He is suffering from heart ailment from last 30 years. He was operated for Mitral valve stenosis in 1982 in Vellore. But now his position of valve is not good. His health is not good for another operation
His BP is as low as 50. He doesnot have Cholestorol or BS. He has general weakness and also suffers from GERD, which creates pressure in chest. From your forum I found Nat Phos 6X is good for GERD. Can he take it? He was on “aspirin” type of medicine for several years which has its bad effects and was stopped last year as he was loosing blood through stool.
He is weak and frail.
He has to take his daily dose of digoxin tablets – all his medicines are reducing his BP.
Can u prescribe some medicine for improving his BP and overall weakness.
Can we give your wet dose of Arnica 30c?

Thanks in advance

  You consulted me for your wife’s multiple aliments and and you now have listed your father’s case after both patients reached a chronic status in their medical conditions.
  
  You did not give your wife the basic remedies that I prescribed and gave her your own selection of remedies and you then complain to me that your remedies did not help her. When I protested all you said was:
  “Sorry to offend u.”
  
  You may not know that I am 83 years old and am not a professional Homeopath. Homeopathy to me is only a Hobby to which I am passionately dedicated and I have used my knowledge to help literally hundreds of thousands of patients but it is very rarely that I have encountered 2 chronic patients like yours with a person like you to convey my therapy to them.
  
  I shall try to help your dad on the distinct understanding that I cannot be held responsible for any problems which he may suffer from both now and in the future as his condition is very grave today as you would have observed yourself.
  
  I shall detail the therapy for his GERD and his Heart which I noticed has already been operated for Mirtal Valve Stenosis after which he was on Aspirin which eventually caused bleeding in his stomach.
  
  GERD
  
  The remedies you will order are as follows:
  
  Nat Phos 6x dose 3-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 2 meals
  Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken thrice daily.
  
  Please observe the following simple rules:
  
  Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry. Do not drink more that a few sips of water after your meals. This is to prevent the further dilution of your gastric juice which can then reflux into your Esophagus which results in GERD.
  
  It is important that you do not go to bed for at least 2 hours after dinner as food will take about this time to digest and it is best to stay awake and upright to enable your food to digest before going to bed.
  
  No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.
  
  If you suffer from a stomach ache or you feel your stomach puffing up before a meal during the day between meals, this is usually due to hunger pains, caused by your gastric juices attacking the inner lining and the wall of your stomach. The simple remedy is to eat some food like a biscuit or a banana between meals to keep the gastric juice away from digesting the stomach wall which results in a stomach ache which in some cases can be acute.
  
  You must drink at least 3 liters of liquids, preferably water daily and you must also exercise for at least half hour daily. It is important to sweat it out as this is all part of my therapy to overcome GERD.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in a 5ml Liquid Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.
  
  HEART
  
  He will continue with the DIgoxin but you will not give him the Aspirin.
  The Arnica will hopefully help his heart and help to stabilise his general condition
  
  Kali Sulph 4 Tablets taken thrice daily. This will help his tiredness.
  
  You will report his condition every 3 days

        Dear Joe,
        
        For My Wife –
        
        1. I have started your prescription from yesterday night – 1 dose of each was given last night and another dose of each was given today morning (all of them with a gap of 5 mins) – except Argentum Met which I didnot get in 6c potency. I am getting 30C. What should I do?
        
        2. Basically her pain in right feet is troubling her now. It is increasing at night and is becoming intolerable. Now as the pressure is on left foot, so it is also started paining. In the morning the pain is little less – but at times it is throbbing inside. Swelling is there and she cannot put her feet down properly.
        
        For my Dad –
        
        1. Your prescribed medicine started alongwith the running alopathic medicines except Arnica 6C – which is a not available. Minimum potency available here is 30C. What to do?
        
        I was impressed with the healing power of Arnica 30C in wet dose – so I have started taking it myself twice daily from today. Is it Ok.
        
        Can I give to children – 13 yrs & 10 yrs?

        I believe that I am only wasting my time in trying to help you and your family.
        
        You do not seem to be able to comprehend that when I prescribe A Remedy the least I can expect you to do is to give it to the patient precisely as prescribed by me. I remember that you had given someone your own remedy and later complained to me that the patient had not responded.
        
        You now state that you did not get Arg Met 6c and that you will give her AM 30c.
        
        I will not waste my time with you in the future as I have a lot of work and do not have time to waste it on you and your family.
        
        I also note that you are giving some remedies which you do not list every 5 minutes. I hope that you are aware that the remedies will thereby antidote each other.

Dear Joe,

I was not able to convey clearly – and angered you. I feel sorry for this.

I have not given AM 30C – I am just asking that 6C is not available at my place in Gwalior – I will have to bring it from Delhi or Calcutta. Till then what to do. It will take 15/20 days for me to arrange

I am not giving any medicine other than yours. I am giving only

1. Bryonia 30C wet dose
2. Eupat 200C wet dose
3. Arnica 30 C wet dose
4. Hyper 200C wet dose
5. Ferr Phos 6X – 3 X 3
All the above 1 to 4 – twice daily
Regarding gap between each medicine – I was not clear – what should be the gap between each medicine – I gave at a gap of 5 mins

Again Arnica 6C is not available for my father.

I do appreciate for your time and effort – please do not stop responding. I am really depending on your therapy only for my wife and do believe that it will help her.
She had stopped all pain killers and all other medicines from yesterday. She is ready to give time to “Joe therapy” even my father is expecting something good.

Please Please read my post and do respond when u have time.

  Have you had her blood tested for Uric Acid?
  
  If so what is the result?
  
  Arnica dosage to be the same for both potencies

Hb – 10
Platelets – 2.6 lacs
But her ESR remains continuouly high for last 3/4 years – though I didn’t do it this time. Last week it was 55.

  I hope that you will understand that although I agreed to forgive you it does not mean that I can spend my time on responding to ALL your queries as I have other matters to occupy myself.
  
  Your mother’s Uric Acid is NOT the reason for her present predicament as the normal is 3-6 mg/100ml of serum.
  
  I recommend that Arnica is best taken after age 40 when the body tends to slow down.

  I shall copy below my default therapy aka “Joepathy” which many Diabetics are using today to control their BS levels. The remedy I have prescribed is Arnica 3c in the Wet dose which is taken twice daily.
  
  Type I patients have confirmed that they discovered their BS levels were reduced by about 20-30% within a day of their starting on this therapy. One has confirmed that his BS level reduced by 75% in about a month and he was able to reduce the Insulin he was using by this amount.
  
  Mag Phos 6x dose 2 tablets taken thrice daily have also helped to reduce BS levels and you can add this to your daily dosage.
  
  Please note that you will most likely notice a dip in your BS level within 24 hours of starting my therapy and you will then have to reduce your dosage of Insulin as it must be maintained around 110. Daily tests for Blood Sugar are essential.
  
  Type II patients will also have to monitor their BS levels on a daily basis to ensure that their BS is stabilized at around 110 and they will reduce the dosage of the drugs that they are using daily to maintain this level. The Arnica 6c and the Mag Phos 6x are taken as prescribed.
  
  Cinnamon powder is also useful to reduce Diabetes while Okra or Bandakka which grows in the tropics also helps to reduce BS levels. Okra is used by cutting up a tender pod and inserting it into a glass of water which is left overnight and the water is drunk on an empty stomach the morning after.
  
  The therapy I have prescribed to many patients is as follows:
  
  Arnica 3c in the Wet dose is taken twice daily and the following protocol is used to make the Wet dose. It is essential that the patient’s BS level is monitored daily for a week to observe how the addition of Arnica to the standard drugs like Metformin reduce the BS level which should be maintained at around 110. In the case of Type II Diabetics the Units of Insulin used can be reduced to keep the BS level at this optimum level of 100.
  
  Mag Phos 6x dose 2 tablets taken thrice daily before meals.
  
  Exercise is essential and the patient is expected to avoid Sugar and reduce Starch and to avoid the consumption of Alcohol completely.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.
  
  Report progress weekly.

        Sir, i consulted a doctor earlier for weak liver (2 months back),at that time he prescribed me Sorbline and Stimuliv some sort of ayurvedic syrup for liver.At that time symptoms were like loss of appetite,i was unable to sleep properly,and exhaustion, depression etc.but now some of symptoms has vanished but it seems that i have not been cured as i am not able to gain weight. more over sometimes i have noticed blood mixed in stool which usually doesn’t gets noticed unless water is used on it, my stool is usually loose type , wet.is is due to poor functioning of liver?or i do have some other reason for not getting weight.i now eat but still i have fear in my mind and i am much concerned for my health.i also consulted a homeopath and he gave me lycopodium 200c(one dose a day)and mother tincure of CHELIDONIUM MAJUS to be taken in morning and night before meal.
        still weakness persist.please help.

        I regret that I cannot diagnose your problems on my website and I can see that you have already consulted both Ayurvedic and Homeopathic physicians in your own country who do not seem to have been successful in doing so.
        
        “i have noticed blood mixed in stool which usually doesn’t gets noticed unless water is used on it, my stool is usually loose type ,”
        
        It is possible that you suffer from Hemorrhoids which can explain the blood mixed in your stool which is most likely red.
        
        I can try to help you if only you can have your problem correctly diagnosed by a competent physician.

Dear Joe:

Complaint of Allergic Asthma/Sinusitis/Allergies

Approximately one year ago I developed allergies. I will mention that after cleaning my garage with wet moldy papers, I start wheezing, swollen lips, unable to breath that evening. It was very scary. I would have coughing and wheezing from then on. (Prior to this I have never had any type of allergy or wheezing). I decided to see a Pulmonologist who diagnosed me with Allergic Asthma. I was given an inhaler to take as necessary. (ventolin pump). I would also need to take claritin to get rid of the itchyness. The itchyness would be in my mouth and cause a sensation of numbness around the lips. The condition did approve somewhat for a few months. Since June 2012, I have not been able to get a moments peace with constant coughing, I feel phlem in the back of my throat, (clear ) and am clearing throat. I then begin to cough and wheeze. I have to take 1-2 puffs of the inhaler for the feelings to subside. I try drinking lots of water, but don’t see improvment. My left sinus seems clogged, I went to an ENT due to watering eyes, and feeling as though I have a cold which turns out to be sinus congestion. I was prescribed a Nasal Spray and Omnicef antibiotics. The Nasal Spray seemed to help temporarily. Everyday while going to work via public transporation I seem to sneeze and more prone to wheezing and coughing.
I am a 41 yr old female,living in the Northeast. Is there anything you can recommend homeopathically which will make these symptoms subside. I can’t even get a good nights sleep due to these symptoms I have having. Thank you for your help. Sincerely, Sandra

  I shall copy below my default therapy for Asthma and it is most likely that you should observe relief in 3 days when the wheezing that you are experiencing today will hopefully cease.
  
  You will report your progress as often as you wish here on my website.
  
  Your remedy is Nat Sulph 6c in the Wet dose taken just before bed which you will take nightly for some time into the future. You will only take ONE dose nightly. If however you do not experience any relief which can happen if you are a chronic Asthmatic, you will please report your status to me and I may then prescribe another dose to be taken making a total of 2 doses per day.
  
  You will report your response weekly or more often as may be necessary.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle which is the DOSE, as prescribed.
  
  Steam is also important and it must be inhaled for about 5 minutes twice daily. You can get the steaming device used in beauty saloons for facial treatment. You will most likely cough up a lot of phlegm immediately after steaming.
  
  Physiotherapy is also indicated after steaming to rid the lungs and airways of the phlegm which is also the cause of Asthma. You will lay flat across your bed with your chest slightly elevated above your head which is hanging down over the side. You will get someone to tap your chest on the back from the waist up to your neck and you should find that your phlegm will drool out in cupfuls.
  
  Exercise is essential for you and you will drink at least 3 liters of water daily.
  
  You can also blow into a baloon to help strengthen your lungs.
  
  If you get an acute attack of Asthma which you would treat with a Nebulizer you will take Ars Alb 200c in the Wet dose and this will usually bring relief within about 15 minutes or less. In the event of the first dose not working you may take another about an hour later. Please note that the maximum dosage is not to exceed 3 doses 12 hours.

  I have prescribed the therapy aka “Joepathy” which has helped and sometimes CURED many Asthmatics.
  
  You have copied the therapy I have prescribed in your post and have added the results of sensitivity tests to various triggers which give you the wheeze.
  
  You must understand that I spent a lot of time to prescribe my therapy to you and the least that I could have expected from you was a report of whether or not my therapy had helped you. As you will understand I am not interested in your allergies as I have prescribed for your Asthma which I notice from your post, you have yet to use.
  
  It is not the triggers you recorded that precipitate an attack of Asthma that are of interest to me.
  
  It is your response to my therapy that will be of interest.

Hello Joe:

I’ve been reading a lot of your comments & post. Not only from here but also at abchomeopathy forums. I come to you in regards to a health situation with my mother. First of all, I’m currently on several homeopathic remedies & under the care of a local homeopathic doctor for my own health concerns. I won’t discuss those here because this is about my mom. I’m a firm believer in homeopathic medicine. I have a ton of health issues myself & in close to 2 months of treatment I’m already feeling better. I have a viral,fungal,& parasitic overload so I’m taking several remedies.

Now, let’s move onto my mother & her health situation. She doesn’t want to go through the same homeopathic doctor for her health issues. She doesn’t really have the financial means plus she is stubborn as well.

My mother is 71 years of age. She has a few different diagnosis that I will share with you. In 2008, she was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. In 2009, she was first diagnosed with diabetes. I don’t even know for sure which type. She also was diagnosed with hypertension as well. She also has arthritis. Despite having all of these health problems, she continues to work her job. Nope! She’s still not retired yet.

She was put on a few different prescription meds. She’s currently on metformin for diabetes & something for blood pressure. She was taking something for fibro but she stopped it this year because it wasn’t helping her at all.

Over the past 1 1/2 years, she has suffered from multiple kidney infections. I personally think it’s a combo of both the metformin & diabetes itself. Her kidney infections have become more frequent & worse. She’s had 4 of them this year alone. She’s always taken antibiotics for them everytime.

I’m impressed from the testimonials about Arnica Montana. I’ve told my mother about this & she wants to try it out for her health problems. However, she has multiple issues. I want her off these prescription meds. Her kidneys are probably damaged from diabetes as well as age & metformin usage. Below is what I’ve come up with for her treatment. All homeopathic remedies.

1. diabetes- arnica 6c in wet dose 3X daily at 1 tsp. One of these doses at night for sleep.
2. fibromyalgia/arthritis- arnica 6c wet dose taken same as for diabetes. Magnesium Malate taken at 1200-2400 mg daily with meals.
3. hypertension- Nat Mur 2 tablets 3X daily with meals.
4. kidneys- solidago compositum 1 tablet sublingual 3X daily on empty stomach. I wanted her to try the injections of solidago but she refused. They work much faster than tablets.
5. drainage(kidneys & liver)- Berberis-Homaccord 10 drops 3X daily in water on empty stomach.

What is your opinion on the above homeopathic treatment plan for my mother? My homeopathic doctor wouldn’t comment about this because she only treats clients based strictly on acupuncture meridian assessment testing. That’s how all of my treatment options are determined. Could you please give advice or opinion on my mother’s health situation & treatment plan? Thanks!

  Data on her Arthritis and presumed Fibromyalgia

Thanks Joe for your reply. What do mean by data on her arthritis & fibro? I can only give you the timeframe of these diagnosis. I don’t know what you want in terms of data. Do you want written proof or something? She’s already had kidney function tests done in the past. The traditional med doctors just like they have done me disregard there are any problems. They do bloodwork on her & always say everything is normal when I know better.

I mean she’s got real evidence of kidney functioning problems. Several kidney infections in the past 1 1/2 year. Her blood sugar without meds does go up. Usually between 130-160 range but she does avoid most sugar products now. I’ve finally gotten her strictly on stevia as a sweetener. However, I can’t get her off coffee. I know the coffee isn’t helping matters with her kidneys & diabetes. She’s not using organic coffee either.

Her BP without drugs runs between 125-140/85-95. She actually has pretty low BP readings while on meds at 90-100/60-70. I can give you my word on the therapy you design for my mother. I trust homeopathy 100%. I know because I’m currently on a very extensive & complex therapy regime myself.

I know she has kidney damage. I mean it’s right there in proof with all of these infections. It’s getting more frequent & worse as well. It takes her 2 weeks at least to get over them each time. The antibiotics she’s been on has been Cipro,Amoxicillin,& some other one I can’t remember. Keep in mind, I only want remedies with homeopath or alternative medicine.

Absolutely no traditional meds whatsoever. I know that’s what you preach but wanting to make sure you know that. I think I hit pretty well in my previous reply in a possible treatment plan. What do you think? Thanks & looking forward to your suggestions.

  You must understand that I cannot even try to help your patient without having a detailed report of the diagnosis made by her doctors of her ailment and what drugs she was prescribed.
  
  You stated “The traditional med doctors just like they have done me disregard there are any problems. They do bloodwork on her & always say everything is normal when I know better.”
  
  If she suffers from any Kidney malfunction she must surely have the results of the tests done to verify it. What drugs other than antibiotics were prescribed? Infections of her bladder must not be confused with Kidney malfunction as the problem lies in her bladder and not her kidneys.
  
  I note that you are giving her artificial sweeteners and Coffee. You must know that ALL sweeteners are carcinogenous and coffee is TABOO as it antidotes all Homeopathic remedies.
  
  She does not suffer from Hypertension. The readings you quoted without drugs are acceptable for her age and it is best NOT to dope her with drugs which will cause other problems.
  
  Where do you live?

Thanks again Joe! I first have to address some of your quotes:

“You must understand that I cannot even try to help your patient without having a detailed report of the diagnosis made by her doctors of her ailment and what drugs she was prescribed.”

I already stated her diagnosis Joe. I don’t have direct access to her records. Can I get them? Yes, but like I said, she has official diagnosis of diabetes,fibro,hypertension,& kidney problems. I don’t know the specific type of diabetes(type 1 or type 2).

The drugs she is/has taken I also already stated in a previous reply. She’s currently on metformin for diabetes & a BP medicine in which I don’t know the name right now. She was taking a fibro med but has stopped it earlier this year.

She’s not taking any med that is for kidney problems but has been on different antibiotics for these kidney infections. The latest I believe was amoxicillin. I believe she has been told she has diabetes nephritis or something close to that name. I don’t see that this matters too much about her kidneys.

Doesn’t solidago compositum treat broad spectrum kidney problems? I know I’m taking it myself in injection form for my kidney issues & I don’t have any specific diagnosis. My initial acupuncture meridian assessment test showed bad(low energy) kidney function. I didn’t have any diagnosis at all for kidneys but still taking a homeopathic remedy for them in solidago compositum.

Also, homeopaths don’t make general diagnosis of their clients. They don’t worry about what specific diagnosis that some traditional doc has made. They treat clients as a whole system & not any specific diagnosis brought to them. That’s why I don’t get some of your specific questions. I’m just giving you her official diagnosis & her symptoms. I don’t get all of these other specific questions. I’ve given you all I know about her health situation.

“Infections of her bladder must not be confused with Kidney malfunction as the problem lies in her bladder and not her kidneys.”

Where did I state she had any type of bladder infections? I never used the word bladder. Of course, most traditional med doctors run tests & can’t even determine the difference between kidney problems & bladder problems. She HAS NOT been officially diagnosed with bladder infections. It’s all been kidney related.

“I note that you are giving her artificial sweeteners and Coffee. You must know that ALL sweeteners are carcinogenous and coffee is TABOO as it antidotes all Homeopathic remedies.”

Where did you get I was giving her anything? It’s her choice & not mine. Where did you get artificial sweeteners? I never stated anything about her using artificial sweeteners. I said I got her off artificial sweeteners & made her switch to stevia.

That’s not an artificial sweetener. I already have tried to get her to stop coffee. I even suggested her to start trying an organic herbal coffee. That’s what I personally use now sweetened with stevia. I only drink 1 cup every couple days anyhow. She drinks 2-3 cups of coffee daily.

How can stevia be considered an antidote to homeopathic remedies? I use it & it was recommended as the only sweetener by my homeopathic doctor. Where’s proof of this claim? Stevia is a safe & natural sweetener but you claim it deletes the benefit of remedies? However, my homeopath suggested for me to use it with my treatment plan. We have different claims/opinions here about stevia from two different homeopathic doctors.

“She does not suffer from Hypertension. The readings you quoted without drugs are acceptable for her age and it is best NOT to dope her with drugs which will cause other problems.”

Maybe she doesn’t suffer from hypertension afterall. I just know she’s on a prescription med for it. I don’t trust traditional med doctors at all & that’s why I came here to seek your help for my mother. I too don’t want her doped on drugs. I want her off ALL drugs & on strictly homeopathic meds.

“Where do you live?”

USA- specifically in the state of Tennessee. Thanks for your time!

  I notice some antagonism on your part in your post where you seem to resent the questions I have posed which I considered essential to be able to get more data to treat your mother’s many ailments.

  You must understand clearly that I do NOT subscribe to classical homeopathy. You may not be aware that I have developed my own therapy now known and accepted as “Joepathy”.
  
  You have also stated:
  “Doesn’t solidago compositum treat broad spectrum kidney problems? I know I’m taking it myself in injection form for my kidney issues & I don’t have any specific diagnosis. My initial acupuncture meridian assessment test showed bad(low energy) kidney function. I didn’t have any diagnosis at all for kidneys but still taking a homeopathic remedy for them in solidago compositum.”
  
  I have to inform you that I cannot waste any more of my time in answering your inane questions as you had your own therapy already mapped out for her, when you sought my confirmation that your therapy was the best for her, in your first post.
  
  I can see from your belligerent attitude and your questions that you challenge the therapy which it was my intention to prescribe, after I had some answers to my questions.
  
  In the circumstances I regret that I am compelled to withdraw from your mother’s case.

Joe:

I’m sorry if you were offended. That wasn’t my intentions. I’m just trying to get a grasp on the situation about my mother. And, no, I didn’t have my own therapy planned for my mother. I’m not qualified in doing that Joe. I was just gong by what I’ve learned in my own health situation.

I was only going by the therapy I’m receiving through a very well-trained & qualified homeopath. My mother just doesn’t have the financial means in seeing her. It cost $250 for every assessment testing period on a monthly basis. That doesn’t even include specific remedies.

It’s your choice to not help & that’s OK with me. You seem to also not like people asking their own questions about your work. I know you have your own therapy & that’s also fine. However, you have to understand there’s nothing wrong with people asking their own question as well. Thanks anyhow for your time & I’ll look elsewhere in help for my mother.

Hello Joe,

Hope you are well.

You treated me very successfully with Arnica and Hypericum about 20 months ago when I had broken my wrist. You also prescribed some Bryonia for my son who had trouble with phlegm being stuck in his throat.

I would now like to ask if you would lend your kind assistance in helping my friend, who is in a great deal of pain. She suddenly experienced great pain in her upper jaw and has been told that it is a blocked saliva duct (Parotitis I think it’s called). She has been told that it should unblock itself hopefully within a couple of weeks, but she is on the brink of tears with the pain and can’t eat.

Can you recommend anything for this?

Your time and knowledge is very much appreciated.

With Healthy Regards,
Sheila Lindsay

  I shall copy the therapy I have prescribed for patients who presented a Blocked Saliva Duct aka Parotitis which has helped many to overcome their ailment.
  
  I am informed that this therapy takes about a week to dissolve the Calculus which is blocking the flow of Saliva and the patient is spared the trauma of surgery which is the only method known to medicine to treat this problem.
  
  The remedies are listed below and are taken thrice daily in the Wet dose:
  
  Belladonna 30c
  Merc Sol 30c
  
  If the patient is in acute distress due to the blockage, Hypericum 200 can be used.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.
  
  Please note that this therapy is not an instant fix as the treatment usually takes about 2 weeks to dissolve the Calculus.
  
  Report the patient’s response in a few weeks.
  
  I am very well and shall be 84 years of age next month in October and am still as active as ever, thanks to God and my allegiance to my daily dose of Arnica 30 which I have taken nightly for the last 17 years
  
  I am glad to note that I had helped you successfully with your broken wrist and your son for his throat.

Dear Dr. De Livera:

I had my root canal retreated 10 days ago. I’m currently on Penecillin 500 (today is the last day). My tooth is sensitive and the area below my ear is sore and tender. I have been rinsing my mouth with salt water and I’ve also been applying neem/haldi/oil paste. I saw an oral surgeon today who said that we need to watch the tooth for another 2 weeks and if the pain the ear continues and the tooth pain returns (after the penecillin wears off) then I will need to have the tooth extracted.

Unfortunately, this evening the pain did return: I did a salt rinse, and then neem/haldi/oil paste as well. Finally, I just took Advil I was wondering if you have any recommendations for homeopathic medicines. Do you think at this juncture I should just get the tooth extracted?

Thanks for your help.

Best,
Monika

  Do not stop the antibiotic that you are taking but change it to Amoxycillin 500mg which is more effective. Take it twice daily as there is obviously some bacterial infection in the root which is causing your current distress which has not been addressed by the Penicillin you are taking.
  
  Also take Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken 4-5 times daily. The Arnica will increase the blood flow throughout your body and also in the gums and should hopefully help to prevent extracting your tooth.
  
  Drink plenty of water up to 4 ltrs daily.
  
  It is important to get the Arnica in a branded product in 90% alcohol for best effect.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.

Thanks for your prompt reply, Doctor. Prior to Penecilllin, I had taken a course of Amoxcillin, this is my second course of Penecillin. Would another round Amoxcillin be helpful again in getting at the bacteria?

Thanks.

  It just depends on what the Amoxycillin dosage was – 250mg or 500mg?
  Also what the brand was. I would suggest Beecham’s Amoxycillin 500mg or even an antibiotic (AB) that is more wide spectrum which you will have to get prescribed by your dentist.
  
  The fact that you have pain in your ears indicates that there is a serious infection in the root and at this stage you will have to use an AB that can stop the infection which your courses of both AB’s have not addressed.
  
  Take the Arnica immediately as prescribed by me and seek your dentist’s advice on the AB.

Dear Sir,

My Son is having Amblyopia (Lazy Eye). I request you if any remedy is there in homeopath/joepathy please help me.

Present Details of my Son:

Date of Birth: 21.9.2006

Time: 7.30 pm

Nature of Child: Very sensitive, goes angry if anybody say anything to him or even speaks loudly to him. Doesn’t like to give his things to his elder brother. Very active, talks a lot, most of the time watches cartoons on TV, like to play games on computer or mobile phone. Doesn’t mixes up with other kids. Good in studies (in fact brilliant). He always have very hard stool in the morning. He often catches cold quickly. He sneeze/Sternutation many times in day. Rubs the tip of his nose. Eats normal, BUT don’t like to eat fruits (any) except banana. Like to drink, cold drinks and flavored drinks etc. Has the problem of cough.

History of Birth: At the time of delivery (though normal not cesarean) the food pipe was wrapped around the neck of child. The bad water of delivery went inside the child due to which the color of child was blue when born. Most important the child didn’t cry after birth. After 4-5 hours of birth the child cried and after few days his color becomes normal. The mother was having problem with harmones due to which contnious medicines are taken by mother during pregnancy. When the child was around 7 months he fell from the bed. The amblyopia in the child is genetic.

We detected the squint in right eye at the age of 1 and the doctors prescribed spectacles of power +4 in right eye and +2 in left eye. The patching of right eye was done for 3 years but no benefit.

If you could help I will be very thankful.

Thanks

Manoj

You are right sir; even I am unable to understand the problem.
I have taken my child to all the big hospitals such as AIIMS,PGI etc and to many private doctors. But all of them have said to me that there is no treatment in the world other than patching the normal eye. Ironically, patching has not helped my child.
I am writing the theory given by medical science (which I don’t understand from the engineering perspective)
Let us have
Eye—–the device to catch the image
Optic nerve——the device to carry information about image in a certain form to brain.
Brain ————–creates an image from the information received through optic nerve.
Doctors say… each eye captures a different picture. This picture goes to a portion of brain through separate optic nerve. The brain then superimposes the two pictures received by these two portions to create a 3D image.
Further, the alignment muscles of eyes make it possible that both the eyes are focused on a single object.
Now let me take up the case of my son.
I detected a squint in his right eye. His right eye was inward the nose while the left was straight.
Doctor said, the eye sight is weak in the right eye. Due to which the child is trying to accommodate through his right eye. This accommodation is causing the squint in the eye ( as the child is trying harder through his right eye). As the child cannot read then (age was 1) the doctor prescribed the number for spectacles by retinoscopy.
We put the spectacles to child…………. But the problem of squint was not solved……………… The doctor said to patch the left eye,……………………. as the portion of brain connected to right eye is ignoring the information from right eye.
The theory behind was that if the right eye is forced to work more then there are chances the portion of brain connected to right eye will become functional again and normal vision will be restored to both the eyes.
Now………. you can see ………….the focus is shifted………… from the eye ………..to brain.
I mean………… now we are assuming that eye is working normal (doing the work of capturing)………….. but since brain has learned to ignore the image from this path………………….. our target is to reverse this change through patching.
Even patching for 3 years didn’t help me.
What I wonder is that………………………….. we don’t know the real problem.
If it was with eyes (capturing device) …………………………….then refractive correction would have solved it.
If the problem was neuro …………………………………then the brain work out would have solved it.
But nobody………………………….. focused on the point ……………..if the optic nerve (which carries to brain) is having some problem ………….then neither the refractive solution nor the brain work out will be of any result.
It is this point for which my quest is going on……………….Is there any way to remove that blockage of optic nerve?
Do the optic nerves carry signals in the form of blood?
Or the signals are some electric or magnetic in nature?
Here I was thinking of any help in homeopathy/joepathy as I read on internet in one homeopathy book that optic nerves are within the scope of treatment.
Pl note that for the time being I have skipped one technical aspect in this medical issue,i.e. what if the problem lies within the alignment muscles of eye. If the alignment muscles are not working in synchronization with each other whether it is a mechanical defect in the muscles or a problem with the brain portion itself as they are not synchronized with each other.
Millions of people in this world are still waiting for a hope from the medical science for this so called

LAZY EYE or AMBLYOPIA 

Thanks,

Hello Dr. Joe,

I am a 30 yr. old male and have been having raised eczema-like bumps / cysts on my face and neck that come and go, with slight burning pain, for the past 4 years. Today I have about a dozen or so raised bumps on my face.

According to “Homeopathy – The principles & Practice of Treatment – with a comprehensive range of self-help remedies for common ailments by Dr. Andrew Lockie & Dr. Nicola Geddes”, I am a PHOSPHORUS homeopathic constitutional type.

I have tried my constitutional homeopathic medicine Phosphorus 30C for a week 3 times per day as well as Arnica Montana 30C applications and liquid doses twice daily for another week without relief.

I have tried various allopathic medicines including cortisone shots and doxycycline and seen several doctors and specialist with temporary results. The allopathic doctor calls it granuloma which is really a generalized term for inflammation of unknown cause.

I have reviewed your website as well as ABC homeopathy web sites and have seen you helping a lot of patients.

I am writing this to request your expert opinion with the treatment.

Thank you for your time.

Prasad

  I note that you have done some reading on Homeopathy and that you have unilaterally decided that you are a “Phosphorous type. ” I also note that in spite of your using your new found knowledge and have taken both Phosphorous and Arnica that your Eczema has not responded.
  
  This is a good example of how classical homeopaths use their own concepts of the Constitutional typing which I do not subscribe to as I have, like you, discovered many years ago that it is just a waste of time, and does not help the patient at all and only ensures that the suffering patient is compelled to return over and over again to the consulting homeopath for that next ‘typing’ which can go on forever.
  
  You state:
  “I am writing this to request your expert opinion with the treatment.”
  
  As you will notice, I have already expressed my opinion above and if you still wish to use my therapy aka “Joepathy”, I would like to have your confirmation that you will follow my therapy to cure your Eczema which has been used by many hundreds of patients with outstanding success.
  
  You will also confirm that you will STOP using all other drugs and Homeopathic remedies if you decide to use my therapy.

      The remedy for your Eczema is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose which is made up as follows:
      
      Order the remedy in the Liquid Dilution in Alcohol in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake it hard to produce bubbles. This is homeopathic succussion and must be done every time before a capful of the bottle which is the dose is taken as directed.
      
      Take a capful of the remedy water twice daily and also apply the water on your lesions as often as possible.
      
      You should observe some improvement in your condition on about the third day into this therapy.
      
      Please report your response on the third day.
      
      It is understood that you will not take any other drug while using the Arnica therapy.

Dear Sir,
I am about 73 yrs old…I underwent CABG during 1998 and after immediately became diabetic. During February 2012, my Creatinine and Blood Urea Nitrogen ( BUN) was 1.14 and 21 mg/dl respectively.My New Diabetologist changed my medication during February 2012 and during August 2012 my Creatinine and BUN shoot up to 1.6 and 69 mg/dl respectively due to the new medications. I have taken advice from Nephrologist who declared me as Diabetic Nephropathy CKD 3 and advised me to follow Diabetic Renal Diet which I am following now .I am under another Diabetologist now who has changed my all medications, reduced my insulin dosage and adjusting the new medications to keep the sugar level 100-130 Fasting, 100-180 Post Lunch and Post-dinner and 100-130 Pre-Dinner values .
Upon advice from homeopath ,I started 45 days before 10 drops of Solidago Virgaurea Q thrice daily and my Creatinine and BUN became now 1.2 and 60 mg/dl. Homeopath now advised Berbaris Vulgaris Q alongwith Solidago Virgaurea Q 10 drops each twice daily to reduce Creatinine and BUN to target level of Creatinine and Bun below 1 and 20 mg/dl respectively.
Now I want your advice on the following questions ::
(1) Are Solidago Virgaurea Q and Berbaris Vulgaris Q will be able to keep my Creatinine and BUN level to target value ? Otherwise what will be your valuable guidance ?
(2) Whether these drugs in Mother Tincture form can be taken as JOEPATHY WET DOSE system . Or whether different potency will be needed to follow JOEPATH WET DOSE system
(3) Whether such medications are to be taken life long to keep Creatinine and BUN to the target level
I will be highly oblidged if you advice me suitably .

  I would advice you NOT to use Homeopathic therapy for your Kidney and Pancreatic problems for which you will have to be constantly under the treatment of your specialist doctors.
  
  In answer to your specific questions about using the Wet dose method of using Homeopathic remedies that I am using today for Mother Tinctures I have to inform you that this Wet dose therapy can only be used for the C potencies and NOT for the Q or Mother Tincture.

Hello Joe.

My mother is 63 years old.Has had multiple operations in the past.Has a pacemaker (fully pacemaker dependent).Some “notable” operations she had were bi-lateral knee replacement, carpal tunnel release in both hands, hernia.

She doesnot take any allopath medications at present.She has no other ailments right now except tremendous pain in both upper and lower limbs which radiate to her foot .She also has lower back pain .

Her BP is mostly on the lower side but she is just fine with it.

Please prescribe some medication for her pain.

  It is unthinkable for me at 84 to know that someone, 63 years of age, has suffered so much and perhaps so very unnecessarily, with the multiple surgeries you listed.
  
  You may like to know that the chances are that she may not have found ALL of them necessary if only she had consulted me as I have successfully treated:
  
  Osteo Arthritis
  Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  
  As for her Pacemaker it is very likely that I could have saved her this surgery too.
  Hernia cannot be treated other than by surgery.
  
  Let me start her on the following remedies:
  
  General Tonic including therapy for her heart and it may also help her pain.
  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken thrice daily.
  
  You will have to get her checked by a neuro surgeon to identify the cause of her “tremendous pain in both upper and lower limbs which radiate to her foot .She also has lower back pain .”
  
  She can take the remedy below to help to deaden the pain but I shall try to help her better when you give me more data on the cause of her pain.
  
  Hypericum 200c in the Wet dose taken every 3-4 hours as needed to reduce pain.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.

  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

    Joe,
    
    I understand that but we didnot know of this site before.
    
    Her tremendous pain in upper and lower limbs an radiating to her feet is because of the operations she had where some nerve ends had got cut or damaged.She did some neuro tests where it was revealed that some nerves in her foot are actually damaged.Her lower back pain is due to some dislodged disc.The specialist did suggest an operation but I said a flat “no”.
    
    We donot get spring water here.Can we use distilled water or boiled water ?
    
    You wrote General tonic and therapy for heart….can you please elaborate?

      It occurred to me that she may benefit from Hypericum 200c in the Wet dose taken every 3-4 hours. Its beneficial effect will be felt in about half hour when the pain will lessen considerably. It is not a cure but will help to deaden the nerve pain for which it is a specific.
      
      It is not impossible that the combined effect of both remedies may make her life more comfortable.
      
      Report her response in a week.

  I am very concerned to learn that your mum:
  “She suddenly had rashes all over her hands,face and neck.There was pain in her eyes with some tearing and the pain was upto her eyebags area.”
  
  I cannot believe that this rash was due to the medicines I prescribed for her and I would like to have a list of what you used and how you made up the Wet dose and how often you gave them to her.
  
  Did you give her any other drugs yesterday ?

I prepared the wet dose exactly as you suggested.Filled up a 500ml bottle with boiled water,poured out about 3cm of water/100ml and then put 3 drops of both medicine in respective bottles. Shaking the bottle hard times, she drank a cap of the solution.We kept a gap of 30mins between the 2 medicines.She had arnica wet dose 3 times and hypericum wet dose every 4 hr gap.
Don’t think this is due to the medicines.We live in calcutta which is in the eastern part of india and we are having a change of seasons.Could be some bacterial/allergic reaction.No,she is not on any other medication.

She has suddenly developed intense pain on her both arms (the left worse and slightly swollen than her right), lower back pain has intensified and there is knee pain (not the kind she had before knee replacement but throbbing pain) also.
Her rashes have gone away except a mild itching now and then on the scalp and face region.
Is there a painkiller in homeopathy apart from hypericum 200?

  Glad to learn that her skin problems have improved with the Arnica. She can continue with it and also apply it directly on the skin for better curative effect.
  
  You can also stop using soap or a shampoo for her hair and replace it with Johnsons Baby Shampoo. This formula does not have any Alkali and will help her scalp.
  
  There is very little that I can do for her pain right now as the only positive pain reducer is Hypericum 200 in the Wet dose taken every 3-4 hours.

Now the fever has reduced in intensity but she is having severe itching all over her body.So far continuing with arnica and hypericum but no significant effects in pain reduction which is understood as she was having paracetamol.

Dear Dr. Joe,
My aunt (after much persuasion) has finally started arnica 30C and Hypericum as suggested by you. She started yesterday and says already she is feeling at least 25% better.

I read in the homeopathyandmore forum that you had said:
QUOTE
DIABETES 30c
I consider that this is easily my most important discovery which I made quite accidentally a year ago when I gave Arnica 30c to a MD who was a Type I Diabetic to help cure a chronic non healing wound. He informed me on the day after he took 2 doses that his Blood Sugar had dropped drastically and refused to use it anymore as he felt that it was some mysterious medicine which he did not wish to experiment with as he was already on Insulin which he injected himself 4 times daily. I then gave this remedy to two Type II Diabetics and discovered that they had the same reaction when their BS dropped considerably similar to the drop caused by Metformin. I then prescribed 1/4 teaspoonful Cinnamon powder to be used twice daily and have 2 patients who are able to control their ailment without recourse to the standard drugs used for the control of Diabetes.
ENDQUOTE
Should a diabetic take any precautions? for sudden reduction in sugar because of arnica? My aunt is already taking some diabetic tabs, Is there possibility of sugar falling dangerously low? Her allopathy medicines include blood thinners (clopivas), pressure reduction (Losar and Lower A10) KCor(Vasodilator) and selkon. These were prescribed to her after the triple by pass surgery. Please let me know Dr. Joe, thanks.

  Glad to learn that your aunt has discovered in just about 24 hours that “She started yesterday and says already she is feeling at least 25% better.”
  
  I was interested to note that you had read about my therapy for Diabetes in a post I made in 2005 on the H&M Forum of which I am a founder member.
  
  You have asked me for reassurance on taking Arnica and I can only state that I have been taking it as a ‘tonic’ since 1996 nightly and at age 84 many refuse to believe that I am that ancient. I do not suffer from any ailment and I still drive myself to work as I have done for the last 65 years.
  
  Your aunt will undoubtedly benefit from the Arnica but it must be 6c and NOT 30c which you have given her. I also note that you are giving her Hypericum. Any reason why? She will discover that her BS level will drop and all she has to do is to reduce her dosage of Metformin to keep her BS level around 110.
  
  For the moment she may continue to take her Losar but the ‘blood thinners’ are a dangerous lot of drugs based on warfarin which is rat poison. They are best avoided as Arnica will Filter the blood and thereby reduce Cholesterol and thin the blood.
  
  If you wish to benefit from my advice, please give me more details of your aunt and her problems and I shall try to help her with my “Joepathy”.

Hi Joe,
i have come across your website via one of the forums i read about your recommendation on weight loss i.e Nat Phos 6x and Arnica 30.

i need some help from you if possible, i am very overweight 109kg and height 5.6ft and i have very bad gerd problem and i am on 40 mg omeprozole capsule for acid re-flux. i may have hypothyroidism as my last test was bit abnormal according to my doctor but he didn’t start any medicines and i don’t want to start any alopath med so somebody suggested me Thyroidinum 30 but i want to use this Nat Phos 6 to loose weight but bit worried what if i have Thyroid as well as all my symptoms suggest that.
symptoms: i have swollen feet, hand and face puffiness, weight gain, cold feelings, dryness, hungry, thirsty, pins and needles feeling on my body and weakness in my legs and arms and so on.
Joe i live in UK and it’s difficult to go for further test here as my doctor asked me to wait for 3 months but i know i can’t wait that much as i am suffering very badly.

i was thinking of starting of Nat Phos 6 first and forget about thyroid at the moment.

can you please suggest me what’s the best possible way to go around my situation?

Apologies for this long post and thanks in advance. if you want me to email you my email address to response then pls let me know.

Regards
AK

PS: just to let you know. My mother was diagnosed with severe thyroid in her last days.

  I presume that you are M and I hope you realise that you have contacted me in the nick of time. I can only hope that my default therapy for Obesity will help you to reduce your weight and I shall copy my default therapy for Obesity below.
  
  Your attendant problems listed:
  “i have swollen feet, hand and face puffiness, weight gain, cold feelings, dryness, hungry, thirsty, pins and needles feeling on my body and weakness in my legs and arms and so on.”
  
  are all due to your Obesity and it is also very likely that you suffer from Diabetes as this is quite common in the obese. The good news is that your problems will disappear and your problems will be resolved in a few months when your weight is stabilised.
  
  Please visit the link below entitied
  
  The Ultimate Cure for Obesity on:
  
  http://abchomeopathy.com/forum2.php/15923/
  
  This is a post I made on the ABC way back in 2004 on December 25, the day before the Tsunami hit Sri Lanka, a day which will forever will remain in my mind for as long as I live as I was involved in the Homeopathic after care of the many thousands of survivors immediately after the Tsunami when I was joined by members of Homeopaths Without Borders who sent 6 pairs of erstwhile Homeopaths to help me in my efforts to help them.
  
  Basically your therapy will comprise the use of
  Nat Phos 6x dose 3 tablets taken thrice daily after meals
  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily before meals.
  
  Weigh yourself today before you commence on my therapy and report your weight loss weekly when the standard loss which you can expect and has been reported is around 1kg per week.
  
  You will also do a regular stint of at least 45 minutes of exercise which will be done by you at intensive levels, irrespective of the general feeling of tiredness that you may experience, if you wish to benefit from my Joepathy.
  
  You will also control your diet and avoid fatty fools completely and eat in moderation to ensure that your stomach is filled to comfortable levels.
  
  Report your weight loss weekly when you can expect a drop of at least 1kg per WEEK. It is very likely that in your case that you may lose 2kg per week as you are obviously obese.

    Hi Joe,
    
    Thanks for the quick reply, i had a diabetes test and i am all clear. I am going away on work for few days and will be back next week and will buy all these medicines but i have tried couple of our local pharmacy this afternoon and they dont sell Nat phos 6x and they only sell 9x and 30x with different gram range like 145 gram tablet and i dont know what that means. Is it ok to have 30x because i dont mind loosing weight bit faster if it works this way as i am having lot of problems at the moment.
    I will start my medicine next week and will update you after that. Thanks

      You are fortunate that you have not been affected by Diabetes so far and I have treated many obese patients who were saved when their weight was stabilized.
      
      You must understand that all Homeopathic remedies have a particular potency that will address a given ailment. You must get the 6x Nat Phos (NP) in the Biochemic Cell Salt as the Homeopathic product will not work to reduce weight. The potencies that you listed are not of any use to reduce weight. Only NP 6x will.
      
      If you live in India you will not have any problem to get NP 6x.
      
      Arnica 6c is also prescribed and it will help you to return back to normal soon.

Dear Dr. Joe,
I checked with my aunt about her problems.
a) she had a triple bypass surgery in 2007
b) she is mildly diabetic and takes Gemer 1 once a day
c) She had some high bp but now under control with all the allopathic medicines listed above
d) 20 years back she had a surgery to remove her gall blader(due to gall stones) and a benign tumor in her ovary both at the same time. She often feels a bitter taste in her mouth.
e) She has severe lower back pain and some times it radiates to her upper back and her legs. Some times her lower back feels heavy like a stone she says that she feels unable to get up. Once she gets up she is fine and is able to take care of herself, cook, etc.
f) she is slim. her mood is sometimes erratic, falls into depression and quite negative often (cant blame her, her husband passed away in 2006 and her children live away from her in other countries)
g) she is unable to sleep much – about 3 hours at night with the help of Anxit 2.5

Current medications re-prescribed yesterday by cardiac surgeon:
Gemer 1 mg before breakfast
Clopivas AP 75 after Lunch
Seloken X-L 25 MG 1-0-1
Losar 25 at night
Lower A 10 MG AT BED TIME

Thank you very much for your help.

  I am simply overawed by the drugs that your aunt has been prescribed and I do not think that I can help a person whose life is balanced on a knife edge represented by the drugs that she is taking today.
  
  All I can do is to add the following Homeopathic remedies to her current medication:
  
  Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken thrice daily. This will help with her Diabetes and other aches and pains that she may be suffering from today.
  Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salt tablets to help with her gastric problems if any. Dose 2-3 tablets taken twice daily after meals.
  
  Both remedies will help with her insomnia.

  I am surprised that you have thought of STOPPING THE MEDICATION I have prescribed which you state :
  “seems to have some good response. Should she discontinue these?”
  
  I can presume that you have done so as the “Joepathy” that I have prescribed came to you FREE OF CHARGE but you must understand that it is the result of my experience in using Homeopathic remedies I prescribed, in the manner that I have done for you and for thousands of other patients scattered throughout the world including Sri Lanka. It is the combination of the remedies and the manner that I have instructed you to use them that matters and as you have already seen, they have helped her as stated by you in a very short while.
  
  You may not know that it is very unlikely that any other homeopath could have helped your mother as my therapy did, in a relatively short time.
  
  In her own interest she can take these remedies for the rest of her life but it is in your hands to do whatever you wish to.

Dear Dr. Joe,

I am CONFUSED :(:( . I think there is some miscommunication..

Originally in November you had prescribed Arnica 30C and Hypericum 200C both wet doses this was in November, but she started taking it only on Dec 5th and had good response.

On Dec 6th you suggested she take only Arnica 6 C wet dose Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salt tablets

So I asked you whether she should start YOUR first prescription and start YOUR second prescription.

I have the highest regard for your suggestions, so please don’t misunderstand me. Please tell what to do..

  “Originally in November you had prescribed Arnica 30C and Hypericum 200C both wet doses this was in November, but she started taking it only on Dec 5th and had good response.”
  
  Is there any reason why she did not take the 2 remedies shortly after they were prescribed?
  
  If she experienced relief from her ailments in just 2 DAYS after taking these 2 remedies, it is obvious that she MUST continue to use them as prescribed daily.
  
  The mere fact that I prescribed Arnica 6c for her Diabetes and Nat Phos for some other problem which I do not recollect right now, does not mean that you STOP the remedies that had already given her some relief and take only the second lot of remedies prescribed.

Thanks so much for the clarification Dr. Joe.

I will ask her to add the other two then, so her remedies will be..

Arnica 30C three times a day
Hepericum 200C 4 times a day
Arnica 6C thrice daily
Nat Phos 6x two-three tablets twice daily after meals

Doctor, she has constipation so perhaps Nat phos will help her as you said it is for gastric issues.

Would Kali Phos help her nerves in any way? I am asking because she has these shooting pains, she has pain in her legs as though needles are being poked, some mental depression too..so was wondering if this could be added?

  You cannot use any one remedy in 2 potencies as the higher will prevail. Stay with the Arnica 30c for the moment.
  
  Nat Phos will help with her constipation.
  
  “Would Kali Phos help her nerves in any way? I am asking because she has these shooting pains, she has pain in her legs as though needles are being poked, some mental depression too..so was wondering if this could be added?”
  
  Do not keep on adding more ailments to the current picture. Shooting pains and Mental Depression do not go hand in hand. Be content with her improvement in this short while and let us observe her progress and I shall adjust my therapy as necessary later.

      The reason for her presenting the symptoms above is due to the fact that your aunt is NOT taking the remedy for Arthritis:

      She must continue with the Nat Phos 6x as this will help her.
      Her current ailment is NOT due to the Nat Phos.

I will start those medicines as soon as i find it, just wanted to clear one thing regarding my acidity problem…currently i am taking omeprozole for it so should i stop this or any other medicines when i start this treatment?
Will this control my acid reflux problem as well?

Do I need to take any precautions in foods? or is there any foods which i should avoid with these medicines?

  You can order the largest pack of Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salt because you will need it perhaps for life. The usual dosage is 2-3 tablets taken after every meal and you can reduce it when you discover that your acidity and reflux are under control.
  
  You should normally discover almost immediate relief within a few minutes after you take your first dose immediately after a meal.
  
  You will take the Arnica 30c in the Wet dose twice daily.
  
  YOU WILL NOT USE THE PPI DRUG YOU ARE TAKING TODAY AS IT IS VIRTUALLY POISON.
  Check it out on Google under “The danger of taking PPI Drugs.”

Dear Joe,

Thanks for your reply, i have found the medicine and ordered on the phone and will be picking up this evening, i will start these medicine and let you know my weight loss progress in next few days.

i have also ordered Arnica mother tincture for my hair loss as per your forum and i presumed it’s no harm using that while taking Natphos and arnica 30 for weight loss?

can i also give these to my kids as they are it over weight as well?

Thanks
Amit

  You can certainly give Nat Phos 6x very safely to your children. You must however monitor their weight loss weekly and if you detect any unusual symptom, you can always let me know here on my website.
  
  You must also be warned that children will not add on weight unless the parents give them the wrong diet, rich in fat and other items to ensure that they will not get obese.
  
  Exercise is absolutely essential and they must also drink a lot of water which in the csse of an adult I have quantified at 3 liters but can be reduced in the case of children.

  The reason why you have not responded to the Nat Phos 6x therapy is due to your not taking sufficient tablets.
  In your case you can safely take up to 6 tablets immediately after a meal and you should feel the relief within 10 minutes.
  
  Report your response in 24 hours after you increase the dosage of Nat Phos 6x.
  Take the Arnica 30 in the Wet dose as prescribed twice daily.
  
  You can also add Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily. You will however stop this remedy as soon as you feel better as it is not recommended for daily use like Arnica.

Hi Joe,

I have started 6 tablets from today as per your instructions and I will update you my progress on acidity problem but after taking Natphos for 4 days I have noticed that my swelling on feets have come down a lot and I have lost 0.5kg in last 4 days but I think that could be water loss as my swelling has gone down.

This weight loss is without any excersice because I was sick with cold and flu from last 4-5 days so couldn’t do any excersice.

I am happy to get this result without any excersice but I hope I will loose more when I start excersicing which I will as soon as I am feeling well enough.

Best regards

Amit

  Yours is a very complicated case as you are already aware. I shall try to treat you but you must be warned that my therapy is not an instant solution.
  
  It is very likely that your problems like Asthma are due to your Hyperacidity or Gastritis, aka GERD (Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease) and I shall copy my default therapy that has helped hundreds of patients to overcome this disease for which doctors usually prescribe PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drugs which are dangerous and can cause many other more serious problem when used in the long term.
  
  You will hopefully discover that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will help you within the hour after you have taken your first dose after a meal.
  
  The remedies you will order are as follows:
  
  Nat Phos 6x dose 3-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 2 meals
  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
  
  You will also lose 1kg of your excess fat weekly due to the action of the Nat Phos and you will indicate it weekly.
  
  Please observe the following simple rules:
  
  Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry. Do not drink more that a few sips of water after your meals. This is to prevent the further dilution of your gastric juice which can then reflux into your Esophagus which results in GERD.
  
  It is important that you do not go to bed for at least 2 hours after dinner as food will take about this time to digest and it is best to stay awake and upright to enable your food to digest before going to bed.
  
  No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.
  
  If you suffer from a stomach ache or you feel your stomach puffing up before a meal during the day between meals, this is usually due to hunger pains, caused by your gastric juices attacking the inner lining and the wall of your stomach. The simple remedy is to eat some food like a biscuit or a banana between meals to keep the gastric juice away from digesting the stomach wall which results in a stomach ache which in some cases can be acute.
  
  You must drink at least 3 liters of liquids, preferably water daily and you must also exercise for at least half hour daily. It is important to sweat it out as this is all part of my therapy to overcome GERD.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in a 5ml Liquid Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.
  
  It is understood that the patient will stop all other drugs which s/he may be taking for this ailment.
  
  I shall also copy below my default therapy for Asthma:
  
  I shall copy my therapy for Asthma below:
  
  Your remedy is a dose of Nat Sulph 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily, First dose on an empty stomach and the second just before bed which you will take nightly for 2 weeks, When you find some relief you can reduce your dosage to just ONE dose nightly. If however you do not experience any relief which can happen if you are a chronic Asthmatic, you will please report your status to me for further advice.
  
  You will report your response weekly or more often as may be necessary.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.
  
  Steam is also important and it must be inhaled for about 5 minutes twice daily. You can get the steaming device used in beauty saloons for facial treatment. You will most likely cough up a lot of phlegm immediately after steaming.
  
  Physiotherapy is also indicated after steaming to rid the lungs and airways of the phlegm which is also the cause of Asthma. You will lay flat across your bed with your chest slightly elevated above your head which is hanging down over the side. You will get someone to tap your chest on the back from the waist up to your neck and you should find that your phlegm will drool out in cupfuls.
  
  Exercise is essential for you and you will drink at least 3 liters of water daily.
  
  You can also blow into a baloon to help strengthen your lungs.
  
  If you get an acute attack of Asthma which you would normally treat with a Nebulizer you will take Ars Alb 200c in the Wet dose and this will usually bring relief within about 15 minutes or less. In the event of the first dose not working you may take another about an hour later. Please note that the maximum dosage is not to exceed 3 doses 12 hours.

    I understand I will take nat phos 6x and arnica 30c along with nat sulphur 6c. Will this cover my diabetes and bp as well because you have not mentioned this in your reply
    Thank you

      I have NOT prescribed for your Asthma as I am working on the premise that your GERD was the root cause of your other ailments including Asthma and Diabetes. The Arnica will help with your Diabetes and we will have to follow your progress in a few days of therapy.
      
      You will have to be patient and follow my therapy which incidentally has worked in some mysterious manner to alleviate the problems that patients present to me on my website.

Dear Joe,
Greetings!
I got your contact details from ABC Homeopathy. Thank you for all your useful post. We as a family beleive in homeo,and prefer homeo for us aswell as our children. I have a number of health problems, that demands me to reduce weight. ( PCOD, hypothyroidysm, Piles, cystisis(UTI), endometriosis etc..) and I am on homeo treatment. We have a good homeo physician by the grace of God. But he doesn’t want me to take any medicines for reducing my weight. I came across this natphos and Arnica treatment for weight reduction. Is there any side effects? Will that affect with any of my medical situations negatively?I am on homeo treatment for execssivemenstrual bleeding and cystitis currently, I dont know the details of medicines. I am 67 kg, and I am advised to reduced 55 at least to help with my Gynecology situations.( Post delivery of my Twin in 2011, I had reduced to 67 from 75 ). How to take these treatment? How to make Arnica wetdoese? I contact you here, as I dont find you very active in ABC site these days.

Will be grateful for reply as and when time permits you.
With thanks and regards,

  You will have to make up your mind as to which of your ailments you want treated first, with a list of the others to follow in a descending order.
  
  There are absolutely NO SIDE EFFECTS if you use Nat Phos 6x and Arnica.

    Sir,
    My pain (Back pain+coccyx pain)started in 2009.For one year i used Allopathy but no relief.
    In 2010 i consulted a homeopathy used homeo medicine for 1 year but there is no relult.Later i consulted another homeopathy doctor,He suggested mixture of mother tinctures.Bio chemic cell salts,Homeo medicne.All at a time.There was result,but i got head ache as side effect and also i become sensitive to homeo medicine.When i complain this to him he said – there are no side effects for homeomedicine.Because of side effects i left him decided to take medicine on my own.Because i know little about homeopahty.I read books in library,Internet etc etc.
    Then i came to know about Arnica.First i used in 6(twice per day) potency for several days but there is no result.Later i used it in 200(once per day) though no result.
    Later i came to know about the power of 30 potency then i used it.To my surprise my pain reduced by morning.By expecting more results i have taken second dose.But it resulted in head ache.I think this is homeopahtic aggrevation.However my back and coccyx pain reduced.9 months passed i noticed a little pain in coccyx region.so i decided to do something for this.I have no dare to take arnica 30 again because it may increase my headache futher.So i decided Ruta 30.
    i have taken Ruta 30 once per day for four days.On fifth day there is severe muscle cramps aroung neck and shoulder with pain.I am sure this is homeopathic aggrevation.Because for my head ache i started using ayurveda medicine nemed Ashwashila which contians withania somnifera + Dry extract of Asphaltum.This medicine reduced 95 % of my head ache.That means it is working in body.After this only i have taken Ruta 30 and got severe muscle cramps with pain.I think my indiscriminate
    use of homeo+ayurvedha medicine caused this condition.

      I was interested to read about your experience in using various remedies and was not surprised to learn that the last remedy you used Ruta caused “severe muscle cramps aroung neck and shoulder with pain”.
      
      I presume that you are experimenting with remedies ad lib and you now know how they can cause you more distress than cure.
      
      If you wish me to treat you, you will have to agree on one condition that you will use my therapy aka “Joepathy” exclusively without taking any other remedies which can cause you unnecessary pain and discomfort.
      
      You will also list ALL your ailments in the order that you would like me to treat them.

  I am glad to learn that you have discovered that Arnica 30c has already helped you to overcome your problems with your back pain and your coccyx pain, which is unusual unless you had some accident.
  
  You are advised to take Arnica 30c in the Wet dose that I have pioneered and you will make it precisely as prescribed below.
  
  You will take a dose which is a capful of the bottle or a teaspoonful thrice daily. You will report your progress in a week.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.
  
  Report your progress weekly

1.Does the Arnica 30 you said is the the same Arnica that homeopahtic doctors wet the sugar pills.Or it is different form that.Here i can get SBL company and Germany Made medicine.which is best.

2.I am from Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh,India.I dont know whether i get spring water or not but will try the best.

3.Sir, I am a Homeopahtic sensitive person.Does the repeated wet doses creats any problems.I mean does it aggrevates and causes head ache.

4.Do i need any Bio chemic cell salts.

5.I dont have any doubts on your prescription but assure me again that Arnica 30 will cure all my suffering.

  I note that you suffer from acute pain but you have not indicated where the focus of your pain is.
  
  You can add Hypericum 200 in the Wet dose which you can take every 3 hours to deaden the pain.
  
  You cannot use the Lactose pellets to make the Wet dose. It must be made with the Liquid Dilution in Alcohol which you can get from any Homeopathic Pharmacy in your city. You can use boiled tap water if you cannot buy spring water. Boiling is essential to release the chlorine in tap water which will antidote the Homeopathic remedy instantly.
  
  “I dont have any doubts on your prescription but assure me again that Arnica 30 will cure all my suffering.”
  
  You will have to use the therapy that I prescribe if you wish to be cured. I regret that I cannot give you any guarantee that you will be cured of all your ailments.
  
  If you have any doubts about my therapy you are advised to seek help elsewhere.

Please help.

  I believe that your main ailment is GERD and the remedy Nat Phos 6x with Arnica 30c in the Wet dose will hopefully help you to overcome your problems but you must understand that this may take a few weeks. Nat Phos 6x will also reduce your weight by 1kg per week and the Arnica will help your insomnia and your urine flow.
  
  You will STOP taking all other remedies and/or drugs when you start on my therapy.
  
  Report your progress weekly.
  
  I shall copy my default therapy for GERD below:
  
  It is very likely that you suffer from Hyperacidity or Gastritis, aka GERD (Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease) and I shall copy my default therapy that has helped hundreds of patients to overcome this disease for which doctors usually prescribe PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drugs which are dangerous and can cause many other more serious problem when used in the long term.
  
  You will hopefully discover that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will help you within the hour after you have taken your first dose after a meal.
  
  The remedies you will order are as follows:
  
  Nat Phos 6x dose 3-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 2 meals
  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
  
  Please observe the following simple rules:
  
  Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry. Do not drink more that a few sips of water after your meals. This is to prevent the further dilution of your gastric juice which can then reflux into your Esophagus which results in GERD.
  
  It is important that you do not go to bed for at least 2 hours after dinner as food will take about this time to digest and it is best to stay awake and upright to enable your food to digest before going to bed.
  
  No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.
  
  If you suffer from a stomach ache or you feel your stomach puffing up before a meal during the day between meals, this is usually due to hunger pains, caused by your gastric juices attacking the inner lining and the wall of your stomach. The simple remedy is to eat some food like a biscuit or a banana between meals to keep the gastric juice away from digesting the stomach wall which results in a stomach ache which in some cases can be acute.
  
  You must drink at least 3 liters of liquids, preferably water daily and you must also exercise for at least half hour daily. It is important to sweat it out as this is all part of my therapy to overcome GERD.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in a 5ml Liquid Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.
  
  It is understood that the patient will stop all other drugs which s/he may be taking for this ailment.
  
  I note that you have listed other ailments and I shall deal with them later as I do not wish to overdose with remedies for fear that one will antidote the other.

      You will have to make up your mind as to whose therapy you will use.
      
      I referred back to your first post and read that you are already under the medication of another homeopath.
      
      You are advised to either use mine or his exclusively as our 2 therapy may antidote each other.

        im taking Nat phos 6x, 2 tabs after 2 meals. I do intense exercise regularly but there is No weightloss although I must say that acidity is better.
        Sleep issue still not resolved and swelling under eye persistent
        
        Herein Dubai im unable to get Arnica 30c in liquid Ethanol.
        From India I got 2 different products. One is Arnica Montana 30c SBL 203 dilution in plastic bottle and other says Arnica mont. 30 by reckeweg. Which one is the correct one?
        I will make wet dose After you confirm.

        You can increase your dosage of Nat Phos 6x to 2 tablets taken after every meal and report if you lose any weight.
        
        You can use the Dr Reckeweg product which is usually in a 91% Alcohol and is the best as you are only using just 3 drops in a 50ml bottle of water.

Dear Mr.Joe,
I am currently on medicine for Cystitis. I had been suffering from UTI kind of symptoms right from my marriage in 2000. Till my second delivery in 2006 it was not very often, but since 2006 I never been out of the symptoms. I took antibiotics a numerous times, and had been taking homeo treatment from various doctors. Even with this current doctor I had taken treatment for six months for UTI with out any result. Each time the urine culture will come out as Ecoli and both Allopathy doctors and Homeo doctors were carried away by UTI, as the symptoms were almost similar. This doctor finally diagnosed it as Honey moon cystitis, and with the current medicine I am much relieved, though the pain and burning occurs once in a while.
For ENDOMETRIOSIS, I am taking homeo medicine to stop bleeding whenever the period occurs. My period is highly irregular, it starts very scanty, and in two three days it gets into uncontrolled flow, even with homeo medicine it went upto 15 days in October. November my homeo doctor asked me to take medicine every half an hour from the first day itself, and it was stopped by eight day. There will be big clots. No stomach pain, back pain, no itching.
My recent USG says my endometrial thickness is 10mm, and has polycystic ovaries both the side.
I will be finishing the current course for Urinary problems in two three days time. I would like to take the treatment for Endometriosis to stop bleeding primarily, secondly, I want to be free from this urinary problem. Would like to know your thoughts on this.
Thank you so much for your time..

  I cannot treat your UTI as it is only a drug based on an ABST (Antibiotic sensitivity test) that will indicate the best drug to treat the causative bacteria. I note that this problem is now stabilized.
  
  I shall now prescribe my default therapy for Endometriosis and Chocolate Cysts.
  
  Your remedies are:
  
  Bellis Perennis 30c
  Arnica 30c
  Apis 6c
  
  All remedies to be taken in the Wet dose twice daily leaving about an hour between each.
  
  Bellis Perennis reduces the Chocolate Cysts that are usually present with Endometriosis and also prevents the spread of these lesions internally.
  Apis 6c will help the body to reabsorb the Chocolate coloured fluid which fills them.
  Arnica will reduce your pain and the bleeding that many patients suffer from, some on a continuous daily basis.
  
  Please note that this therapy is not an instant fix to your problem and you may have to take it for some time into the future.
  
  Report your response in a week and after your next period.
  
  Please follow the instructions below to make the Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy.
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

  Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salt taken in the dosage of 2-3tablets twice daily will usually reduce weight at the rate of 1Kg per WEEK.
  It will not work however if the user takes any other drug for other ailments

Respected sir.
Firstly i would like to express my respect and appreciation towards you on doing a wonderful work and serving humanity and helping people for free.. i believe people like you are an asset to this world .I have thoroughly enjoyed your articles and posts on ABC homoeopathy forum,homoeopathy and more forum as well as your own website.
I would.like to ask for your suggestions for my problems and queries .you have recently responded to me via abc homeopathic forum regarding my child’s toe nail injury i am treating him as suggested.would like to thank you again for quick response.
i am 33 year old female and would like to ask you few things related to myself .
I have been wanting to shed some weight ..i had previously lost weight by diet but gained around 4 kg back due to not doing much activities and exercise .currently i m 60 kg as i have been ill half this year with something or another.
i had severely fallen sick due to insufficiency of vitamin d. it affected all my muscles not my limbs used to tremble and shake when i walked or did anything same was the case with my arms cooking food as well was v hectic for me .i am a mother of three .reside in London. life here is v hectic and requires a person to be fit to perform all household and outside work too. i did recover v slowly after the injections of vitamin d but after 2 months my vit d level dropped down from 111 nmol to 80 this was right after injections of v high potency.i know its not considered low levels of vitamin D here but my body starts getting the symptoms when the level drops down or below 100 Since then i am taking vitamin d orally high dose everyday, winter, weather requires more of vitamin d intake as there is no sun at all .trembling of limbs and arms on performing activities and walking comes back if i don’t take it
i don’t exercise since my current condition does not allow me yet .i developed couple of more problems after the recovery of weakness and severe fatigue .
my question is if there is anything in homeopathy that can help me keep the weakness and fatigue at bay by constant use safely.
Right after this recovery i started symptoms.of getting tired while talking that i hardly wanted to speak to my kids and husband, It developed into severe symptoms started getting out of breath on walking ,talking ,cooking , eating and performingg little activities.it required alot of courage and effort to talk
I was sent to hospital for all tests and x-ray,blood test detected that i had infection. i had pleurtic pain in my chest right side of my.lung…i had pain in my ribs..
Treated my infection with antibiotics. ribs pains cleared too And tried alot of herbs to fix the prblem, but nothing seemed to help much.i was not able to talk as there was alot of courage and force required ,breathing accelerated everytime i talked and walked or.moved my arms even for cooking or brushing my hair.i have been suffering for.last five .months i .did try a homeopath and herbal.stuff but didnt work.much.
i came across homeopathic forums. around two weeks ago. on one of the suggestions i tried phosphorous 200 it brought relief but after four or five doses i didnt sseem to have further improvement . Then i wrote on ¬homeopathic forum where ,one of the homeopaths adviced me to take arsenicum album200 along with phosphorous30.and i really felt improvement with arsenimcum alb.
i still have accelerated breathing but intensity has improved by taking the remedies, which prevents me talking too
I stay constipated have tried a lot of alternative remedies for past six years .but no success. if i don’t take senna tablet or tea on daily basis i don’t have a bowel movement and i can go without out opening my bowel upto three to four days which gets me v bloated and irritated too…its like i will live with this problem.
I will call it a miracle if i get rid of. my constipation problem.
I take alot of supplement like multivitamins complex, garlic capsules, Echinacea tablet, vit d some time serrapeptase and cordyceps tablets to help me heal and stamina and. energy
So do u think if i use your nat.phos 6x remedy i will be able to loose weight as u have mentioned in your articles . One should not take anything else while taking this treatment called joepathy.
Kindly reply. And tell me how can u help me and suggest remedies for all my ailments. Including my breathing problem which sometimes seems allergy that gets aggravated and symptoms increase ,on my last gp examination I was told that i have congested nostrils.
chest is clear. For doctors I m perfectly fine and my respiration by seeing me doesn’t look accelerated where as I feel inside my chest either air passages are irritated and have rapid breathing and that stops me to talk too
Whereas i feel it is unusual to have accelerated breathing or pressure while talking.
Currently i am taking Arsenicum album200 once a day ,carboveg30,and ant tart 30 three times a day.
i have also tried belladona 30 for constipation but no success.
I suffer from back pain every now and then. Shoulder blades strain and neck too which is currently aggravated since i lifted a bag
Will highly appreciate if you can respond me and help with long list of ailments
Thanks
Regards

  Thank you for your kind words which I appreciate.
  
  I am indeed surprised that at age 33 you present a medical picture which is dismal and I believe stems in your mind as you feel that you are ill, fat, tired, etc.
  
  YOU MUST SNAP OUT OF YOUR CURRENT STATE OF SELF PITY AND STOP THINKING OF YOURSELF AS AN INVALID.
  
  You have a husband and 3 children to look after and it is up to you to WAKE UP.
  
  STOP ALL DRUGS AND OTHER MEDICINES THAT YOU ARE TAKING TODAY.
  
  Start on the following remedies ASAP:
  
  Constipation: Nat Phos 6x. Dose 3 tablets taken thrice daily after meals.
  General tonic: Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken thrice daily.
  Flu signs: Eupatorium Perfoliatum 200 in the Wet dose taken once daily.
  
  EXERCISE IS ESSENTIAL. STOP THINKING THAT YOU ARE TIRED AND DO SOMETHING TO SWEAT IT OUT. START SLOWLY BY WALKING BRISKLY AND INCREASE THE LEVEL TILL YOU ARE JOGGING FOR AT LEAST HALF HOUR.

  just writing to take your advice
  firstly i want to tell you that i am taking nat phos for almost three days
  and i have had bowl movement once and that too v little.i am taking 4 small size pills after every meal (3 times).
  I started arnica and nat phos the day you adviced me
  i am having trouble breathing openly.feeling alot of weight on my chest which is not letting me breath fully and preventing me to talk as well.as i feel a pressure.
  It was quite bad i felt like my airways have inflammation i took two ibrofen tablets and allergy tablet and after some time the stiffness in my chest while breathing got better
  would you suggest anything for this problem as well as for allergy so that i can try it on myself as i have noticed i did use hoover on my carpet may be thats what aggravated it.
  I have not recieved eupotorium perf. As postal system.is slow due to.christmas.

    Be reassured that the Nat Phos and Arnica had absolutely NOTHING to do with your complaint:
    
    “i am having trouble breathing openly.feeling alot of weight on my chest which is not letting me breath fully and preventing me to talk as well.as i feel a pressure.
    It was quite bad i felt like my airways have inflammation i took two ibrofen tablets and allergy tablet and after some time the stiffness in my chest while breathing got better

    It is this form of complaint which casts some aspersion on my therapy that makes it unpleasant for me to treat you. I did so as you appealed to me for help and if you feel that my therapy is making you WORSE you are free to DISCONTINUE IT IMMEDIATELY.

    1 year back when i am suffered back pain and coccyx pain.Consulted so many homeopaths but no result.So i decided to take medicine on my own first i started arnica 6 but no relust,Then arnica 200 no result.I am vexed.In searching for another remedy i came across power of 30 potency in homeopathy.So i taken arnica 30 for 4 days.On the first dose only back pain reduced 90%.But i repeated for four days.It caused aggrevation.I got head ache on the right side.So i stopped all the medication.
    Later one year on your suggestion i have taken arnica 30 wet dose only once it showed results in my neck pain but caused mild head ache.So i thought further doses of arnica would increase my pain.

      I note that you have taken Arnica 30c in the Wet dose ONCE for your chronic BACK PAIN and that your back pain reduced 90%.
      
      You must continue to take Arnica 30c in the Wet dose twice daily irrespective of your headache as it has already helped your back pain and will continue to do so in the future.
      
      I presume that you have made the Wet dose as per instructions below:
      
      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
      
      Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

        You need water which is not fizzy and which does not have any chlorine as it antidotes the Homeopathy.
        You can even use Tap Water after boiling to make the Wet dose

Hello Joe
Hope you are well
I just wanted to give you an update, one week into treatment.
I have lost 2 kilos but my bg levels are averaging at around 200-210.
I feel a lot of relief in my breathing…but usually at night I tend to get slightly wheezy. The acid reflux is completely better.
My bp reading this morning was 142/89.
Thank you

  Glad to note that you have lost 2Kg in a WEEK !!! It is usually 1kg weekly but I presume that you are overweight. What is your weight and height?
  
  It is important to record your weight loss and report it to me.
  
  I believe that you can start on my therapy for Asthma now and you can use the therapy I have copied for you last week.

My height is 5ft 2 and my starting weight was 82kg, I started the asthma therapy on Wednesday, my main concern is that of my sugar levels which is about 210….what can I do to reduce this further, I am following a very healthy diet with no sugars or fats. I am also concerned about my bp. To confirm I have stopped all my bp and diabetes medications since last week. Kindly advise accordingly.
Kindest Regards
Rita

  You cannot STOP the drug Metformin you are taking for your Diabetes. You should however discover that your BS level has dropped by about 20% with the Arnica 6c and you will adjust your Metformin to maintain a Blood Sugar level of around 115.
  
  Your Asthma should also respond to the Nat Sulph 6c therapy and you should also use steam inhalation daily.
  
  I have had a few patients whose Asthma was cured when they lost their excess weight.
  You should aim at reducing your weight down to around 65Kg.

I will start metformin again then…you initially told me to take arnica 30c…so should I stop 30c and start 6c now?

  What is your problem with Arnica that makes you want to antidote it?
  Describe your symptoms precisely to enable me to advice you.

  I find it very difficult to believe that Arnica 30c in the Wet dose can possibly cause you the many problems that you have reported.
  
  If what you state is true, I co not understand why you still continue to take it.

      I have been closely associated with Homeopathy since 1965 and have to inform you that you are the first person to state:
      “For me arnica 30 one dose will give relief for 3 to 4 months.”
      
      I refer to Arnica 30c in the WET DOSE and NOT in the standard pellets.
      
      I noticed that you contacted me a few weeks ago on my website and I prescribed Arnica 30c in the Wet dose on December 17.
      
      I can now see that you have been using Arnicaa for the last 4 months on your own and you have therefore used the standard pellets as the dose.
      
      You have inquired how to antidote Arnica and it appears to me that you are not using this remedy in the manner that I have instructed you. If you choose to do so, it is obvious to me that you are only wasting my time on trying to help you and that you are not interested in my therapy.

  It is very likely that you suffer from Hyperacidity or Gastritis, aka GERD (Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease) and I shall copy my default therapy that has helped hundreds of patients to overcome this disease for which doctors usually prescribe PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drugs which are dangerous and can cause many other more serious problem when used in the long term.
  
  You will hopefully discover that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will help you within the hour after you have taken your first dose after a meal.
  
  The remedies you will order are as follows:
  
  Nat Phos 6x dose 3-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 2 meals
  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
  
  Please observe the following simple rules:
  
  Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry. Do not drink more that a few sips of water after your meals. This is to prevent the further dilution of your gastric juice which can then reflux into your Esophagus which results in GERD.
  
  It is important that you do not go to bed for at least 2 hours after dinner as food will take about this time to digest and it is best to stay awake and upright to enable your food to digest before going to bed.
  
  No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.
  
  If you suffer from a stomach ache or you feel your stomach puffing up before a meal during the day between meals, this is usually due to hunger pains, caused by your gastric juices attacking the inner lining and the wall of your stomach. The simple remedy is to eat some food like a biscuit or a banana between meals to keep the gastric juice away from digesting the stomach wall which results in a stomach ache which in some cases can be acute.
  
  You must drink at least 3 liters of liquids, preferably water daily and you must also exercise for at least half hour daily. It is important to sweat it out as this is all part of my therapy to overcome GERD.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in a 5ml Liquid Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.
  
  It is understood that the patient will stop all other drugs which s/he may be taking for this ailment.

    Dear Joe,
    
    Thanks for the reply.
    
    I have already started your prescribed medicine after reading your website replies to other people. I have started as per followings, plz advise if i need to change as there is only a minor change but quite not visible change:-
    
    1. Nat. Phos. 6X – 4 tablets after each meal
    
    2. Arnica 30X – 5 drops in water after each meal.
    
    Regards

      STOP TAKING
      “2. Arnica 30X – 5 drops in water after each meal.”
      
      READ MY THERAPY FOR GERD WHICH I HAVE PRESCRIBED AND UNDERSTAND IT CORRECTLY.
      
      You will need just 3 DROPS IN A 500ML BOTTLE OF WATER.
      
      You will then take a dose which is just a teaspoonful of the water twice daily.
      I noticed that you are taking the Arnica after each meal and this tends to reduce the effectiveness of the remedy which should be taken about half hour BEFORE a meal.
      
      You will however take the Nat Phos 6x immediately AFTER A MEAL.

        Dear Joe,
        
        I have started the medicine strictly as per your advice. But the problem of fullness of stomach before the meals (especially noon meal) is greatly affecting me. The pain 3cms above the navel is really painful even having the half meal. The great pressure is built up after meals giving pressure pains in all parts of the body, especially in temples, head, in neck, spine, head tremors, ear pain etc…there is no hunger pain (used to have lot of hunger pain three years ago). I have no feeling to eat. I eat just not to loose weight. Plz guide.

        It is still too early to decide if my therapy for GERD which has helped many thousands can also help you.
        
        You have now taken the remedy for the last 4 days within which time many have reported relief from their symptoms but it is possible that you may be suffering from Gall Stones which can easily be verified by a US Scan.
        
        Please report findings after you have done a scan.

        You can add Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose taken thrice daily for a week and reduced to twice weekly thereafter and report your response. You will continue with my therapy for GERD.
        
        I presume that you have read and UNDERSTOOD ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS in my prescription for your GERD.
        
        Please confirm that you have STOPPED the Arnica 30X which was not prescribed by me.

        All Homeopathic remedies cannot be mixed together. This is standard for both the dry pellets and the Wet dose each of which must be made separately and taken with half hour between eadh.

Dear Dr. Joe,
After much initial objection (her reasoning was that metals will affect her kidney), my aunt has finally started Argentum Metallicum 6C wet dose on 2nd January.

For the past 2 months or so off and on she has been having burning sensation in her eyes and some tearing. She wanted me to ask you whether you can suggest any remedy for this

  I regret that I cannot help her as the burning in her eyes can be due to a multitude of causes.
  
  You can add Arnica 30c taken in the Wet dose twice daily to her current therapy and see if it helps her.

    Dear Dr. Joe,
    
    She is already taking arnica 30C as suggested by you.As PER YOUR PRESCRIPTION, she is on the following WET DOSES.
    Arnica 30C three times a day
    Hepericum 200C 4 times a day
    Natphos 6 thrice a day
    Argentum Metallicum 6C three times a day
    
    She has now been on the Argentum Met 6C for the last 3 weeks and the other above medcines for almost 2 months.
    She also has sleepless nights and as I had told you earlier is taking Anxit to get sleep at night. Is there any homeopathic medication to help her sleep so that she can get rid of Anxit. Anxit gives her only 2 or 3 hours of sleep at night. Mostly her sleeplessness is because she gets anxious over small events in her life and and keeps thinking about them over and over. For example if her daughter is visiting her for a few weeks, she might be thinking over some past event unrelated to her daughter and be so stressed about it that she may not be able to enjoy her daughter’s visit. After her daughter leaves she will be worried about why she did not do such and such a thing with her daughter. She also gets quite stressed when things dont happen the way she wants them done. Is there any medication for this doctor?

        Dear Dr. Joe,
        Thank you. Her pain has lessened, but still gets sudden bouts of extreme pain in her knees and around tail bone area. She applies Arnica ointment and gets some immediate relief when this happens. Sometimes she has some heaviness around tailbone are, what she describes is that she feels as though a rock is there, some type of heaviness.

      Suji
      
      It is most likely that she suffers from Osteo Arthritis and I shall copy my default therapy which has helped many patients below.
      I have helped many patients who were on a daily dose of various analgesics which only served to deaden the pain temporarily but not CURE the condition. Some patients have reported that they experienced relief from the pain they suffered for many years in the short space of just 48 hours and it is my hope that you too will experience this same blessed relief from your pain.
      
      The 2 remedies are:
      
      Argentum Metallicum 6c
      Arnica 30c
      
      Both remedies to be taken in the Wet dose twice daily leaving about an hour between remedies.
      
      I also discovered that I have been spending a lot of my time in the past few months on trying to help you but I note that you do not seem to be following my therapy PRECISELY AS PRESCRIBED.
      
      I presume that you are doing so as you get my advice FREE OF CHARGE and all you have to do is to send me your next post for my advice.
      
      THIS MUST STOP IMMEDIATELY.
      I regret that I cannot be spending my time on you and your many patients especially when I find that you are not appreciative of my therapy and do not also use it as prescribed.

        Arnica 30C three times a day
        Hepericum 200C 4 times a day
        Nat Phos 6x two-three tablets twice daily after meals (started yesterday)
        She hasnt yet switched to Arnica 6C from 30C which you had recommended.
        
        Today she called and said yesterday evening she had severe pain in her tail bone even when she takes a step, and if she has to put one foot down to get down the step from her front door (just one step there) her knees start paining very badly. So she wanted to stop the Nat Phos because she thought both are connected. I have told her not to alter anything until I hear from you. Thanks for your help.

        The reason for her presenting the symptoms above is due to the fact that your aunt is NOT taking the remedy for Arthritis:
        
        Argentum Metallicum 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
        
        She must continue with the Nat Phos 6x as this will help her.
        Her current ailment is NOT due to the Nat Phos.

        I have no objection to helping my patients as long as they follow my therapy precisely as prescribed.
        It is just fortunate that you had mistyped the dosage of Arg Met 6c as it would have been counterproductive to take 3 doses.
        It would be necessary that she reduces her use of this remedy for Arthritis down to just ONCE daily as she has been taking it for some weeks and later still she can stop it for some time after she has been helped with her Arthritis.
        In all cases it is essential that I have feed back from patients to enable me to follow their response to my therapy, which you would have already discovered is so different from the therapy that you will get from other homeopaths in India. It is no wonder that the classical types have labelled it as “Joepathy” as mine invariably cures the patient while their classical homeopathy invariably does not.
        
        It is possible that the drugs that she has been taking for some years are the root cause of her insomnia.
        Can you list ALL the drugs she is taking today to enable me to advice you further?

  It is obvious that you do not respond to Nat Phos 6x in the manner that thousands of users have done in the past 10 years.
  
  You can stop taking it.

  On the basis of your latest record of your problems I am convinced that Nat Phos 6x IS YOUR REMEDY.
  
  I am copying below the notes of the person who discovered Nat Phos:
  
  Natrium Phosphoricum
  
  Notes by Dr Schuessler (who discovered the 12 Biochemic Cell Salts about 150 years ago)
  
  “Sodium and Phosphate ions are to be found in our body in the muscle, nerve and brain cells, in the blood corpuscles and in the tissue fluids. According to Dr Schuessler, Nat Phos splits the lactic acid, which is produced by the work of muscles into carbonic acid and water. The carbonic acid is absorbed by the sodium phosphate and brought to the lungs where it is eliminated in the process of breathing. If sodium phosphate is lacking, there results an excess of lactic acid and consequently a sour taste, heart burn, sour stools, vomiting of sour, caseous matter, particularly in babies who are overfed with sugar and milk. If lactic acid reaches the lymphatic glands, the albumin of the lymph glands coagulates and the gland begins to swell. In the initial stages of swelling of the lymphatic glands therefore, Nat Phos has a healing effect because it can split lactic acid. Nat Phos further assures that the uric acid of the blood which is formed by the splitting up of the albuminous substance is kept in solution and secreted by the kidneys. Should this not be the case, uric acid will be deposited in the joints. The sequels are Rheumatism. Gout, Sciatica, Lumbago. In the Gall, Nat Phos saponifies the fatty acids which have been consumed with the food. It is hence indicated against digestive disturbances resulting from excessive consumption of fat.”
  
  Note well the following reference to the Lymph Nodes which constitute a major problem for you. It will help with your breasts:
  “My breasts are very heavy and painful again,back of neck lymph area also feels tender.”
  
  ” If lactic acid reaches the lymphatic glands, the albumin of the lymph glands coagulates and the gland begins to swell. In the initial stages of swelling of the lymphatic glands therefore, Nat Phos has a healing effect because it can split lactic acid. ”
  
  It is possible that the stock of Nat Phos you have with you may NOT be the genuine product. Order another stock from a different source and take it as prescribed by me.
  
  Do not give up on Nat Phos and we will observe the results with a new batch.
  
  You will of course continue with the Arnica for LIFE.

Th Nat Phos I have is German DHU product, Shussler biochemic remedy.Because its a phosphate of sodium can it gimme water retention and bloating? Cuz that seems to be the case for me.
The lactic acid article U sent me, I have read too and I was sort of convinced it cud help too. But pls tell me can Nat phos also initially aggravate my breast pain and lymph node swelling symptoms as Im concerned with pain cuz i have gone thru hell with one year of side effects with the lymphnode tb infection drugs.
Shud i stop Nat phos for a few days and see whT happens or continue despite water retention,bloating,No weightloss and painful breastsymptoms? pls advice

  You are advised to weigh yourself daily to verify your statement that you are ADDING ON WEIGHT instead of reducing it with Nat Phos 6x. If you are really doing so, you are creating history as you are the first to report this phenomenon.
  You must exercise till you sweat it out daily and you will maintain a strict control over your diet.
  Report your progress weekly.

  I did not read any reference to TUBERCULAR Lymph conditions in the article. Please copy it for me.
  
  You do not obviously present any such condition but Nat Phos 6x will certainly help problems associated with the Lymph Glands.
  
  Nat Phos will NOT and CANNOT cause Water Retention.
  
  It is Sodium Phosphate NaH2PO4 and should not be confused with NaCl which is Common Salt

Joe I think I hv found whts causing bloating and weight, its coffea. I was taking only Nat phos n arnica 30 wetdose last week and i cud feel lighter,my eyes were not droopy/puffy and scale showed 1kg less. But My Insomnia returned with a vengeance and I HAD to take kali phos and coffea. In 2days the scale went up and urinary issue started and eyes droopy. The Arnica 30wetdose is not able to solve my sleep issue. I feel Kaliphos does not seem to be the problem cuz I took tht b4 and didnt hv this issue. I took coffea for 2months b4 starting ur treatment. I have spent ayear with full night insomniaand it was very difficult,pls solve this for me.

  I have been patiently responding to ALL your many questions but there is a point that I am compelled to call it QUITS.
  I have tried hard to help you to overcome your many problems but this is taking FAR TOO MUCH OF MY TIME which I cannot afford to expend anymore at my advanced age of 84 years.
  
  I have not informed you up to now that Homeopathy is NOT my profession as I am the CEO of a very old family owned business organization which I operate with my sons and it is just that I am passionately dedicated to my own variation of Homeopathy which the classical types have labelled “Joepathy” as they seemed to be somewhat jealous that my therapy CURES while their classical therapy invariably does not.
  
  You can get more information by doing a search under “Joepathy” on my website.
  
  I regret that I am compelled to withdraw from your case as there seem to be far too many insurmountable obstacles which complicate it.
  
  You are advised to seek the assistance of other homeopaths or better still consult one in person.

As per your advice I read in joepathy that you said arnica 6c was better for insomnia. IF MY INSOMNIA IS CURED i wont need anything except nat phos n arnica wetdose as per hundreds of cases u hv solved
Anyway you are a better judge of this situation whether you would like to gimme your help or withdraw due to obstacles and complications ,which actually shud be a challenge for someone as experienced as you sir.

Hi Joe, I wanted to know if you can advise me on what remedy to give my 10 year old son. He suffers from social skills where he becomes very shy around other kids his age or older and literally retreats himself into a shell where he does not speak or interact AT ALL with other kids in his class. He is very bright and speaks to teachers when asked a question but afterwards returns to his shell and does NOT talk at all. He becomes very inhibited, secluded and shys away from conversations. He does NOT act this way at home where he is comfortable in his surroundings. He speaks fluently with both his brother and sister with no problems. I have not got him tested for autism but he does not have any physical diformaties or any other signs of autism. I have tried several times with play dates with other kids his age but he becomes again shy and speechless. Please let me know what you think about it.

Thank You
Francisco

  I regret that I cannot take your case again as I had decided some time ago that you did not deserve the time and effort that I had already expended on trying to cure you of your many ailments, some of which you indicated had been CURED in a very short space of time.
  
  You must understand that at 84 years of age, I am old enough to be your grandfather and it is your attitude to me and to my therapy aka Joepathy that irritates me.
  
  An example of your attitude that irritates me are your questions copied below:
  
  “1.Why 3 drops of remedy in half liter of water.
  2.Daily use of remedy for years may cause proving effect in sensitive persons?”
  
  I do not see any reason why I have to justify my therapy to you. My therapy has worked very well with almost ALL my patients and you must understand that if you are the patient seeking my assistance to be cured of your ailments which quite frankly I believe are all IMAGINED, it is your duty to use my prescriptions and indicate, as you have done in the past, that they have helped you and in many cases CURED you, or otherwise.
  
  I believe that at your age of 23 years, you just wish to show off your mental acumen to me and others who may read your posts here on my website. I do not understand the reason for your questions copied above and I regret that I cannot waste any more time on you.

Resepected Joe

Apprecieate all of your effort in helping the world. Need your help to address my Aunt’s issue related to Lungs.

She is around 65yrs and from very long time (more than 10 yrs), Her BP and Sugar are normal. she is suffering with dry cough. No mucus or Phlegm in the chest and no cold and she is not having any wheezing issues. But she suffer with dry cough especially in morning hrs as soon as she gets up and cough will be there for more than 2 hrs. It is not a continuous but keep occurring every 2-3 min once for 15 to 30 sec. Same thing happens in the evening and this symptom is less in the afternoon and late night. Due to this cough, doctors suggested her to use inhaler every day twice. Thus she did it from past 6 years. Now she stopped using inhaler for past 1 week.

Now-a-days she feels very tired and feels like lack of oxygen/air when she does some house hold work or even when she climbs setps for first floor. Even if the road or footpath is little elivated or up/raised she feels tired of walking on those paths and she feels like to sit and relax and take rest

Recently, she undergone several checkups. The CT scan of Chest on HRCT study of the chest shows – Features sugggestive of Pulmonary Fibrosis. Doctor says like her lungs might have become hard and lost the elasticity functionality and the inhaler powder got accumulated on lungs and breathing pipes and thus lungs are not expanding due to which very low breathing is happening and intake of oxygen is less for her body. They performed Angiotensin converting enzyme (enzymatic) test and the Anti Nuclear Antibody Test resulted as Positive (Nucleolar).

Doctor says like it is not an Asthma but a kind of lungs alergy. Also, she is sensitive to any smoke even to the deep fried smell or seasoning smoke in the kitchen while coocking. In such cases once the cough starts, it contiues for more than 1 hr even if she sits, relax or go for fresh air.

Request you to help us to overcome the lungs infection or alergy or Pulmonary Fibrosis so that lungs start functioning with proper expansion and compression like a baloon.

Thanks for your patience to read such a lengthy request letter.

Shan

  You have addressed a very complicated case to me in the hope that I can perform yet another Miracle. You state that your aunt does NOT suffer from ASTHMA but that she has been prescribed to use an INHALER which I presume she uses daily, or perhaps more than once daily.
  
  All I can suggest right now, if you still wish me to treat her, is to treat her for presumed ASTHMA with my default therapy which I shall copy below:
  
  Your remedy is a dose of Nat Sulph 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily, First dose on an empty stomach and the second just before bed which you will take nightly for 2 weeks, When you find some relief you can reduce your dosage to just ONE dose nightly. If however you do not experience any relief which can happen if you are a chronic Asthmatic, you will please report your status to me for further advice.
  
  You will also take Arnica 30c in the Wet dose twice daily. This is to help increase the flow of blood in her body which hopefully will help her.
  
  You will report your response weekly or more often as may be necessary.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.
  
  Steam is also important and it must be inhaled for about 5 minutes twice daily. You can get the steaming device used in beauty saloons for facial treatment. You will most likely cough up a lot of phlegm immediately after steaming.
  
  Physiotherapy is also indicated after steaming to rid the lungs and airways of the phlegm which is also the cause of Asthma. You will lay flat across your bed with your chest slightly elevated above your head which is hanging down over the side. You will get someone to tap your chest on the back from the waist up to your neck and you should find that your phlegm will drool out in cupfuls.
  
  Exercise is essential for you and you will drink at least 3 liters of water daily.
  
  You can also blow into a baloon to help strengthen your lungs.
  THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR HER AS THIS WILL HOPEFULLY HELP TO REMOVE THE POWDER OF THE INHALERS FROM HER LUNGS. THIS WILL HOWEVER TAKE A LONG TIME.
  
  If you get an acute attack of Asthma which you would normally treat with a Nebulizer you will take Ars Alb 200c in the Wet dose and this will usually bring relief within about 15 minutes or less. In the event of the first dose not working you may take another about an hour later. Please note that the maximum dosage is not to exceed 3 doses 12 hours.
  
  Please indicate if she suffers from any problems with her DIGESTION especially after dinner.
  Can she sleep deeply?
  Does she suffer from Arthritis?
  
  STOP ALL DRUGS AND INHALERS SHE IS TAKING TODAY.
  
  Report her response in a week or earlier if necessary.

      I am only guessing that your patient will benefit from my default therapy for Eczema which I shall prescribe below.
      
      The remedy for your Eczema is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose which is made up as follows:
      
      Order the remedy in the Liquid Dilution in Alcohol in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake it hard to produce bubbles. This is homeopathic succussion and must be done every time before a capful of the bottle which is the dose is taken as directed.
      
      Take a capful of the remedy water twice daily and also apply the water on your lesions as often as possible.
      
      You should observe some improvement in your condition on about the third day into this therapy.
      
      Please report your response on the third day.
      
      It is understood that you will not take any other drug while using the Arnica therapy.

Dear Dr Joe,

I am married with two children and I am 53 years old.

I am having pain in the backside of the neck. When it was shown to a Orthopedic, it was told that the gap is more between joint no.3 & 4 of spinal cod. This pain gets gradually moves on to the left hand also. Some times especially after taking something from a height, or when the pull is felt in the hand, especially left.

Doctors told that in V3 and V4, the downward cures are rather straight in the bottom.

I am also having the problem of Varicose vein in the left leg.

There was no major treatment was done for varicose vein.

There is no problem of Sugar, high blood pressure.

The alpathic doctors said that this related to the menapose.

When the neck pain and pain on the hand developed, there was many allpathic treatments were done. But since there was no proper result, we went to our native place Kerala and undergone inhouse ayurvedic treatment done at Kottakkal Ayurvedic Hospital and Research Centre. That was in Feb 2012 and there was no problem till last month. There was follow up ayurvedic medicines for 3-4 months and then they were discontinued.

Aurvedic diagnosis was that it is the imbalance of ‘Vath’.

Now I am feeling some relief when I put the legs in the chair, lying down on the floor.

I request you to advice Homeopathic cure for these diseases so as to have a permanent cure.

Thanks and regards,

Indira Komath

  I regret that I cannot treat your neck pain as I cannot diagnose the cause on my website.
  
  If you have been diagnosed with Varicose Veins, the remedy is
  Hamamelis 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
  You can also take Arnica 30c in the Wet dose twice daily.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.
  
  Please follow the following restrictions which are essential to ensure that the remedy prescribed is not antidoted:
  
  Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.
  
  Are you overweight?

Dear Dr Joe,

I am not overweight. My weight is 57 kgs and height is 5’3″.

The neck problem was diagnosed as Cervical Spondylitis, which was better after ayurvedic treatment. In this also there is pain, mainly in the backside of the shoulder and in the left hand. With medicated oils, gels and sprays, I get only temporary relief. I request you to suggest a medicine for this.

I approached you because, neither Ayurveda nor allopath provide a permanent solution.

Lay in bed, stare at walls because I lack all feeling (except pain), I dont feel human!
Inability to feel feelings and fun with children which cause dark despair, heavy sobbing on floor because I want to connect with them so badly.
Lack of connection with Mother when young.

Drugs: Never. Refuse drugs.

Worse state of disease:- Cannot tolerate even a few minutes of heat, heat can create suicidal and despair and even more weakness.

Thirst:- thirstless. water tastes gross. ice cold coke or water when Im really dehydrated. Water does not make me feel good.

Habits:

Are you addict of alcohol? NO
Are you a smoker? NO
Are you fond of drinking tea? I brew licorice tea, helps with weakness

  Yours is a very complicated case which I do not think I can solve for you with my therapy. However before I call it quits, I would like you to take Arnica 30c in the Wet dose thrice daily, made up as follows and report your progress in a week.
  
  I presume that you realise that you just cannot let go of your life as you have children and presumably a husband to look after who all care for you but it appears to me that it can be you that is the problem as your current state of despair may stand in their way to connect with you more.
  
  I note that you suffer from constipation and you will take 2 tablets of Nat Phos 6x after every meal thrice daily. NP is NOT a drug and it will work jointly with the Arnica to hopefully restore your life in a few days or weeks back to normal.
  
  Exercise is also essential as this is part of my therapy to help you. You must ensure that you sweat it out and how you do so is your responsibility.
  
  Drink at least 3 litters of liquids preferably water daily.

Thank you Dr. Joe
I have Arnica 30C pellets and will begin putting it in water. I have read your instructions in many posts. Do you want me to order the alcohol based Arnica and use the pellets in water in the meantime? Will happily order Nat Phos 6X.

  You must SNAP out of your current state of ‘depression’ ASAP in your own interest and that of your family.
  
  Take Arnica 6c in the Wet dose thrice daily made up as instructed below:
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.
  
  Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.
  
  Arnica 6c will help you to QUIT SMOKING AND DRUGS.

  You may be interested in a post I have made this morning on the ABC Homeopathy where a patient contacted me after reading a post I had made in 2006 which I shall copy below:
  
  http://www.abchomeopathy.com/forum2.php/79462/3
  
  Re: The Arnica Miracle continues From Joe De Livera on 2014-04-19
  This post is of academic interest as it dates back to 2006 when I was 77 years old and can serve as a reference point to compare the validity of my ‘discoveries’ at that time in using Homeopathic remedies in a non classical manner.
  
  Today, 8 years later at 85 years of age, I believe that I am living evidence to prove to the classical fraternity of Homeopaths who even today criticise me for my outspoken refusal to abide by the strict classical laws of “treating the SYMPTOMS presented by the patient with a SINGLE remedy”, that my “Joepathy” does work in some miraculous manner to CURE the ailment presented by the patient.
  
  It was about 2006 that I changed over from using the classical protocol to what these classical homeopaths like Gavin Murthy who was my first classical critic and coined the term “Joepathy”. He used to predict that any patient who uses my therapy and was cured, as confirmed in the patient’s own statement, would invariably suffer from far more serious consequences like C ancer. He had the good sense many years later to recant his statements and confirm that my therapy did cure disease.
  
  http://www.abchomeopathy.com/forum2.php/231958/
  
  I hope that he reads this post.
  
  I believe I have conclusively proved that my “This for That” protocol in using the same Homeopathic remedy to treat a patient which has previously cured another who presented the same ailment is far more effective and curative in comparison to using the classical protocol with the usual 2 hour long questionnaire to elicit the Symptoms aka Rubrics that caused the ailment. I am not alone in using my Joepathy therapy as the Doctors who own and operate the:
  PRASANTA BANERJI HOMEOPATHIC RESEARCH FOUNDATION
  http://www.pbhrfindia.org/
  
  also use the same therapy. These doctors are all qualified unlike me who is not, although I have spent a lifetime in studying and researching it in my own way as Homeopathy is not my profession. It is only a Hobby to which I am dedicated and if anyone who read this post would like to have more information about “Joepathy” and how I use it to CURE patients free of charge, you are invited visit my own Website:

  You stated:
  “The natphos 6x i started recently,it seems my hairfall has reduced.”
  
  I am very interested in your discovery that Nat Phos 6x which I did not prescribe for Hair Loss but which you used, also helped to reduce your loss of hair.
  
  Please confirm that you have used my therapy for Hair Loss which I shall copy below, was helped by the addition of Nat Phos 6x to stop your Hair Loss. I hope that you realize that this information is of great significance to me to enable me to add it to my current therapy below.
  
  Please also give me more details about yourself to enable me to advise you further.
  
  Your age
  How much hair you lost and for how long you lost it.
  How long you used my therapy and what your protocol was.
  When you started to use the Nat Phos 6x
  What difference it made to your Hair Loss.
  
  Answering your question:
  “I have upcoming exams,Yet i seem to have very low focus and excessive sleepiness.”
  
  I believe that your excessive sleepiness is due to a lack of sleep due to what is known as “cramming” with perhaps drinking strong coffee to stay awake. If my surmise is correct all you have to do is to get more sleep and all will be well You cannot deprive yourself of the normal sleep your body craves as you have already seen the result in being unable to retain what you studied.
  
  Lack of sleep can also cause LOSS OF HAIR.
  
  The following remedies will help to arrest the loss of hair and will also help to regrow the hair in about 2 months.
  
  Arnica Q or Mother Tincture 15ml bottle
  Arnica 30c in the Liquid Dilution in Ethanol
  2 500ml bottles of Spring water sold in supermarkets.
  Any good Fish Liver Oil in capsule form.
  
  Method:
  
  Arnica Q to be used to mix into the water for massaging into scalp.
  
  Insert 20 drops of Arnica Q into the bottle and you should notice that the water bubbles freely when the bottle is shaken about.
  
  Half a teaspoonful of this medicated water is to be massaged into the scalp twice daily.
  Please note that this water remedy with Arnica Q is NOT for oral use.(NOT FOR DRINKING). It is only for massaging into the roots of the hair.
  
  Arnica 30c for Oral use
  
  Make the Wet dose of Arnica 30 as follows:
  
  Order Arnica 30c in a 5ml in the Liquid Dilution in Ethanol in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you take a capfull which is a dose twice daily. This is best taken first thing in the morning and last thing before bed.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before a capful of the bottle is sipped as directed.
  
  Take a capsule of the Fish Liver Oil daily.
  
  Use Johnsons Baby Shampoo daily for your shower which will help to wash away the perspiration from the scalp which causes the bacteria that are responsible for your Dandruff to propagate.
  
  Avoid Coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham and bacon, and all canned cola beverages as they antidote the therapy.
  
  It is understood that you will STOP all other remedies and drugs you are taking today.
  Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.
  
  Drink plenty of water and exercise daily for at least 45 minutes like walking or jogging depending on your age. The idea is to sweat it out. This is essential to promote the circulation of blood in the body which Arnica will help to promote.
  
  Patients who suffered from severe hair loss who were losing over 200 hairs daily have confirmed that they discovered in about a week that the loss of their hair had been arrested. They also noticed that the new growth was plainly visible above their scalp when their hair was parted in about 6 weeks.
  
  Report progress in a month

kind sir,

i statrted taking the nat phos 6X at the beginning of september.I am 26 years old.I have a history of asthmatic episodes.am overweight.I visited this blog by chance and started following it.I was impressed with the results.
I start with family history,my father is asthmatic,diabetic and had a bypass few years back.I moved into hostel for the purpose of studies in 2008,since then i started facing severe hairfall.I was advised ketoconazole and mintop 5%.I started getting hirsutism,I regained most of my hair,Yet the hairfall amount did not stop.I tried to withdraw from the drug by using aloevera,amla juice consumption and a variety of herbal hair packs.This cycle continued till last month i visited this blog.Also significant is i used to take salbutamolvery very rarely since the last few years.
After seeing the benefits of your therapy i followed the hair fall protocol first.i started nat phos 6x for weight loss a few weeks later that is since 3 september.i dont have the option of weighing myself as i am in a very isolated place.but i noted that my hairfall had reduced considerably.I decided to report back as sir you are doing a great job and it is my duty to serve you.
ps:sir this problem of excessive sleepiness has persisted throughout my college years.Its very irritating.and i searched thouroughly throughout your posts so i did not consume coffee,just green tea which you had given permission to drinkAlso sir along with the above regimen you advocted use of iron tablets.I am following it toto.I have lost most of the hair from my crown.
thank you sir and i hope my case helps in any way possible

  As you may be aware, I am 85 years of age and have proved that my Joepathy does indeed work as I am the first person in the world to dare take a remedy, in this case Arnica 30c in the Wet dose since 1996 on a daily basis. I have proved that it bestows some incredible power for the body to rejuvenate by promoting deep sleep which in my case lasts for just 6 hours as I go to bed at Midnight and awake at 6.00AM on the dot without any alarm.
  
  I do not have any ache or pain in my body and am convinced that I owe my present state of wellness to God and Arnica and also the fact that I do NOT take any drugs whatever. I do still drive daily to office.

  WIFE ASTHMA
  
  I shall copy my default therapy for Asthma below:
  
  Your remedy is a dose of Nat Sulph 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily, First dose on an empty stomach and the second just before bed which you will take nightly for 2 weeks, When you find some relief you can reduce your dosage to just ONE dose nightly. If however you do not experience any relief which can happen if you are a chronic Asthmatic, you will please report your status to me for further advice.
  
  You will report your response weekly or more often as may be necessary.
  
  You will not take any drugs when you start my therapy.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.
  
  Steam is also important and it must be inhaled for about 5 minutes twice daily. You can get the steaming device used in beauty saloons for facial treatment. You will most likely cough up a lot of phlegm immediately after steaming.
  
  Physiotherapy is also indicated after steaming to rid the lungs and airways of the phlegm which is also the cause of Asthma. You will lay flat across your bed with your chest slightly elevated above your head which is hanging down over the side. You will get someone to tap your chest on the back from the waist up to your neck and you should find that your phlegm will drool out in cupfuls.
  
  Exercise is essential for you and you will drink at least 3 liters of water daily.
  
  You can also blow into a balloon to help strengthen your lungs.
  
  If you get an acute attack of Asthma which you would normally treat with a Nebulizer you will take Ars Alb 200c in the Wet dose and this will usually bring relief within about 15 minutes or less. In the event of the first dose not working you may take another about an hour later. Please note that the maximum dosage is not to exceed 3 doses in 12 hours. Also note that Ars Alb is NOT for daily use and may only be used on a SOS basis if you discover that you cannot breathe as a result of an Asthmatic Attack.
  
  Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.
  
  FATHER DIABETES
  
  I shall copy below my default therapy aka “Joepathy” which many Diabetics are using today to control their BS levels.
  
  The remedy I have prescribed is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose which is taken twice daily.
  
  Mag Phos 6x dose 2 tablets taken thrice daily have also helped to reduce BS levels and you can add this to your daily dosage.
  
  Please note that you will most likely notice a dip in your BS level within 24 hours of starting my therapy and you will then have to reduce your dosage of either Metformin or of Insulin as it must be maintained around 110.
  
  Type I patients have confirmed that they discovered their BS levels were reduced by about 20% within a day of their starting on this therapy.
  
  Type II patients will have to monitor their BS levels on a daily basis to ensure that their BS is stabilized at around 110 and they will reduce the dosage of the drugs that they are using daily to maintain this level. The Arnica 6c and the Mag Phos 6x are taken as prescribed.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.
  
  Exercise is essential to help the Diabetic and unfortunately many are not in the habit of a daily routine of exercise which in many cases is the reason for the increase in Blood Sugar levels. You are advised to start with a brisk walk and you must ensure that you sweat it out to derive any benefit from the exercise.
  
  Cinnamon powder is also useful to reduce BS levels and a quarter teaspoonful can be taken brewed as a tea twice daily. Okra or Bandakka which grows in the tropics also helps to reduce BS levels. Okra is used by cutting up a tender pod and inserting it into a glass of water which is left overnight and the water is drunk on an empty stomach the morning after.
  Turmeric has also been discovered to help reduce BS levels and can be used in a similar manner to the Cinnamon.
  
  Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.
  
  FATHER PROSTATE
  
  I shall copy below the therapy I have pioneered to treat problems associated with the Prostate .
  
  The remedies are
  
  Arnica 6c
  Conium 6c
  
  Both remedies to be taken twice daily in the Wet dose made as per instructions below.
  
  The combination of both Conium 6c and Arnica 6c seems to reduce the enlarged Prostate which can sometimes result in Prostatitis, an infection of the Prostate Gland caused by the retention of Urine. The effect of these remedies is usually experienced within a few hours after taking them.
  
  I would recommend that anyone who reads this post and suffers from any difficulty or burning in passing Urine starts taking Conium 6c in the Wet dose ASAP with Arnica 6c twice daily. The joint action of both remedies will ease the flow of urine by relaxing the Prostate in a manner that drugs cannot equal. It will do this very safely in comparison to drugs which usually cause other side effects. These remedies will also reduce the enlarged Prostate which in turn can hopefully rule out surgery.
  
  It is also necessary that a Blood Test is done annually to check the PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) level which is accepted as normal at between 0 – 4. This Blood test can be added to the standard test for Lipid Profile and other factors that your doctor may find necessary.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in a 5ml Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you take a capful which is the dose. Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before a capful of the bottle is sipped as directed.
  
  It is understood that the patient will STOP all other drugs which can antidote the Homeopathy.
  
  The following restrictions must be observed to ensure that the Homeopathy is not antidoted.
  
  Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.
  
  Report progress weekly for further advice if needed.
  
  I HAVE PRESCRIBED ARNICA 6C WHICH IS THE REMEDY FOR BOTH DIABETES AND FOR HIS PROSTATE. HE DOES NOT HAVE TO TAKE IT TWICE FOR EACH AILMENT.
  
  Report progress of patients weekly.

Dr.Joe
I am new to homeopathy and was browsing through different sites and informations for a suitable remedy when i came across your blog.
After being through the blog and your remedy prescriptions and the magical cure that has followed i was astonished as the homeopaths i went to gave only single remedies which have not proved very effective in my case.
Would you kindly help me with a remedy for my skin problems.
I am 23 yrs old and have been suffering with acne on back,face,buttocks,chest and sides of thighs for 5 years.No medicines seem to have an curative effect on them.
It would be of great help if you could suggest a remedy.
Thanks.

  I shall copy my default therapy for Acne which I hope can help you.
  
  The remedy that has helped many is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily orally, and also applied directly on the lesions on the face as often as is possible, to keep the lesions damp.
  
  It is essential that the patient continues to take just ONE dose of Arnica 6c nightly just before bed for at least 6 months after the problem has been resolved as there is every chance that the lesions can return otherwise.
  
  The use of a spray device in which the medicated water can be stored and be sprayed on the acne lesions or the eyelids without directly touching them is best.
  
  You will not take any drugs when you start my therapy.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in a 5ml Alcohol pack aka Liquid Dilution in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake it hard to produce bubbles. This is homeopathic succussion and must be done every time before a capful of the bottle which is the dose is taken as directed.
  
  Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.
  
  Please post your response to the Arnica therapy in a week.

  My therapy for Asthma has helped many patients some of whom have recorded their progress on my Website and many have been CURED.
  
  I note that your wife is still using the Inhaler and you must read the therapy I have already prescribed and follow it in detail to achieve a complete CURE. I shall copy it below again:
  
  Joe says:
  October 22, 2014 at 7:16 PM (Edit)
  
  WIFE ASTHMA
  
  I shall copy my default therapy for Asthma below:
  
  Your remedy is a dose of Nat Sulph 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily, First dose on an empty stomach and the second just before bed which you will take nightly for 2 weeks, When you find some relief you can reduce your dosage to just ONE dose nightly. If however you do not experience any relief which can happen if you are a chronic Asthmatic, you will please report your status to me for further advice.
  
  You will report your response weekly or more often as may be necessary.
  
  You will not take any drugs when you start my therapy.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.
  
  Steam is also important and it must be inhaled for about 5 minutes twice daily. You can get the steaming device used in beauty saloons for facial treatment. You will most likely cough up a lot of phlegm immediately after steaming.
  
  Physiotherapy is also indicated after steaming to rid the lungs and airways of the phlegm which is also the cause of Asthma. You will lay flat across your bed with your chest slightly elevated above your head which is hanging down over the side. You will get someone to tap your chest on the back from the waist up to your neck and you should find that your phlegm will drool out in cupfuls.
  
  Exercise is essential for you and you will drink at least 3 liters of water daily.
  
  You can also blow into a balloon to help strengthen your lungs.
  
  If you get an acute attack of Asthma which you would normally treat with a Nebulizer you will take Ars Alb 200c in the Wet dose and this will usually bring relief within about 15 minutes or less. In the event of the first dose not working you may take another about an hour later. Please note that the maximum dosage is not to exceed 3 doses in 12 hours. Also note that Ars Alb is NOT for daily use and may only be used on a SOS basis if you discover that you cannot breathe as a result of an Asthmatic Attack.
  
  Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.an
  
  I do not understand the reason for testing positive for Ecoli and he must take the antibiotic prescribed to treat it.
  I note that his BS level has deopped and that he does not have any temperature.
  Maintain the present dosage of Insulin and he may find that he does not want it anymore later as long as he takes the Arnica prescribed.

  Reduce dosage of Nat Sulph to just once nightly.
  Confirm that she is following the other instructions like Steam inhalation and Physiotherapy.
  
  FATHER
  He will continue with his current therapy.
  
  YOU
  Are overweight.
  Nat Phos 6x dose 3 tablets after every meal will fix this problem and will also reduce your weight by 1kg per week. It may however soften your stools.
  Take a Probiotic like Bifilac.May help to form your stools.
  Take Arnica 30c in the Wd daily. Not Arn 6c.

  I see that you first consulted me for your daughter’s Headaches but you have not reported her progress.
  
  WIFE
  
  Let us replace Nat Sulph 6c with Blatta Orientalis 6c and you will report her response in 72 hours when you will indicate which of the 2 remedies is better for her Asthma.
  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose will help with her sleep taken morning on empty stomach and just before bed.
  
  DAD
  
  His BP cannot be considered as high at 159/80. But is he taking Hypertension drugs?
  How is his Urine retention and stream ?
  What drugs is he taking and what Homeopathic remedies is he taking today?

Dear Dr Joe

Reg my daughter
You are absolutely right I have contacted for my daughter headache and she started bryonia 30 in wet dose and significantly she has improved. Though she is having some heaviness when she getup in the morning. She still has pain in centre of scalp and temple. she is still continuing the bryaonia 30 wet dose morning and evening.
Reg my wife:
I will get the medicine and will let you know the progress after 72 hrs. I will add to her medication arnica 30 in wet dose in morning and bed time.
Reg my father:
You are right his Bp is not high. He is taking mag phos 6, and RNICA 6 in wet dose for his blood sugar and urine problem Cantheris 200, conium6, in wet dose. he is also taking Nat phos 6 for his acidity problem. He is not taking any medication for hypertension. He is taking sorbitrate and avastin. And he is taking insulin 10 unit Am 8 unit Pm. AS I mentioned he has shown significant improvement in shaking hands may be improvement in blood flow because of arnica. Sugar level is also stabilised between 120-125. He has also shown improvement in urine flow so I presume that he must have improved on retention also. I have not done ultrasound done.
Reg myself:
Yes your therapy is working with all of us. I am taking arnica 30 in wet dose and nat phos 6 after each meal only. I still some sleep disturbances. One more thing I would like to point out that my wt is now80 which has come down from 83. One more I quita few lypomas on my abdomen would you suggest some thing for this also. rest is fine. I am felling much better after starting your theraphy.

  Your father is taking far too many drugs and it surprises me that the remedies I have prescribed have worked to help him as all drugs will antidote the Homeopathy.
  
  I did not prescribe Cantharis 200 and cannot understand the reason why he is taking it. Also the reason for his taking Sorbitrate and Avastin. I can understand that he is a Type I Diabetic taking 10 units Insulin and I would like to have a full Blood Test for his Lipid Profile and Blood Sugar which he will do WITHOUT taking any drugs for 24 hours to give me the data to help him, if I can. You will also give me all information about his case to enable me to understand his problems today.
  
  He may however continue with the remedies I have prescribed which I presume are helping him.

Type II diabetic he developed only three years back only after he got severe UTI. I willprovide his recent blood anylysis for you. Cantheresi 200 was taken of his UTI.

  Your dad is a Type I Diabetic who uses Insulin to control his Blood Sugar. Did he use Metformin before he was prescribed Insulin? Did he notice any drop in his BS levels within 12 hours of using Arnica 6c?
  
  I fail to see the connection between the UTI infection and Diabetes. Please explain the connection as you observed it.
  
  STOP the Cantharis which is of no use whatever. Refer his homeopath to visit my Website and read the many cases I have treated with my therapy.
  
  I shall comment on the Sorbitrate and Avastin after I read his Blood Test reports.
  
  Have you read the 2 links I gave you on my Website to articles on Arnica and on taking Pills?
  
  It seems to me that your dad is a living example of how Pills can cause more distress than they are supposed to CURE
  
  I have treated another classic example of a Catholic Nun who was suffering from excruciating pain for 7 years as direct result of Chicken Pox after which she was presumed by a succession of doctors to be suffering from Herpes Zoster. She informed me that she was spending over Rs10000 monthly for her drugs which included drugs for Hypertension and Diabetes both of which she did not present, and for pain management. She was in severe pain and consulted me last Saturday as a last resort when she arrived supported by 2 other nuns.
  
  She phoned me this morning to inform me that for the first time in 7 years she had slept very soundly over the past few days and this morning she woke up without any pain and was not sleepy as she was over the past years when she spent the whole morning asleep perhaps due to the Hypertension Drug and the Pain control drug she was using. I had requested her to STOP ALL DRUGS and she was amazed at the results of using my therapy.

Since I have developed antibodies towards Factor VIII, will appreciate your help. I read your various articles on Haemophilia, and interacted with one Mr. Dhupare, who was not happy.

  I regret to inform you that your case is far too advanced and chronic to be treated by me. However I shall copy my default therapy which has helped many Hemophiliacs and which I hope can also help to alleviate your own problems.
  
  I have pioneered in the treatment of Hemophilia for over 5 years after I discovered that I had succeeded in ensuring that the major problem associated with this ailment of uncontrollable bleeding could be treated without the standard IV drip of Hemofil or equivalent drug when the patient is bleeding uncontrollably due to an injury with the skin broken. Internal bleeding with the characteristic ‘blue’ marks on the skin which occurs after some injury without the skin breaking which usually occurs in the joints is also rapidly dispersed with the remedies prescribed below.
  
  Arnica 6c will ensure that the blood does not coagulate after an internal injury which results in a contusion with internal bleeding without the skin breaking.
  This remedy is taken twice daily for life.
  
  Lachesis 200 will stop bleeding in about 15 minutes and can be used on a SOS basis.
  This remedy is taken after a cut or other injury and is taken immediately after an injury and can be taken in 2 hours if the bleeding presists. This remedy is not for daily use.
  
  All remedies are used in the Wet dose as instructed below:
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

I am 62 years of age (male).
1) 5 years back I went for a normal health check-up and after the urine test Doctor said I have “mild Prostate” and I was put on Alpha blocker tab(Contiflow ..0.4mg). I used for few months and stopped it.
2) Again after 6 months I had the problem of burning and pain during urination. I was put on ‘Antibiotic’ course for one week. This led to stomach burning, acidity and then to constipation. During this period, I started getting some kind of unknown “anxiety” may be due to frequent urination. That time the urge for urination was for every 30 minutes. Every time I used to get the feeling that I emptied it but again within 30 minutes I used to get the urge again. Then one doctor felt it is more of bladder irritation and less of prostate. He treated me for bladder irritation for 60 days ( medicines of ‘Daryten’ and ‘Dypsonil’) course. The side effects of these tablets are “dry mouth” and severe ‘constipation’. The stool used to be very hard and I used to apply more force for discharging it and this probably led to heart problem.
3) When I went for treatment, heart specialist said I have one block and put a ‘stunt’. Now I am on heart related medication ( Plavix-75mg and Aspirin-75 mg and Concord 2.5 mg) for the last 3 years.

4) Now again I started suffering from a Frequent Urination with burning sensation and also pain at the end of the penis. At times there is a persistent pain the urine channel when there is no urination also. I am taking around 2 litres of water daily and mostly I feel the urge to pass urine within 45 minutes to one hour. Stream of the urine is sometimes proper and sometimes slow. The problem during night time is severe it especially takes too much time to pass during night time. Many times, after peeing I feel that there is some urine remaining in the bladder. I have to get up 3 to 4 times in night for peeing .
I tried to summarize my urination related experience in the last one month as follows:
a) Incomplete emptying…. More than half the time
b) Frequency…. Almost every one hour
c) Intermittency…. Half the time
d) Urgency… 1 time in every 5 times
e) Weak stream… more than half the time
f) Straining… more during night time

Presently I am using “URIMAX-D”…4 mg, another Alpha blocker tab ..one tab in the morning. Some relief but symptoms still persist.

5) Other important symptoms experienced in the last 30 years or so
a) Gout.. ( used Rustax-200, Tuja -200, Arnica-200 & Sulphur-200 )..well under control
b) Mouth Ulcers..( used mercsol-200)
c) Occasional Indigesation.. (mostly pulstilla-200 & and Nux-200 at times)
d) Piles(long Back)..Hemamalis-200…total relief
e) Sinus(left nose)…Bryonia-200 (partial relief)
f) Vertigo…experienced at least 6 to 7 times in the past 20 years so far ( 3 days back again very recently)..no medicine taken.
In fact this prompted me to think of Conium because of vertigo.

6) One more thing I would like to add that I used to do lot of ‘masturbation’ from the age of 15 and I continued till the marriage at 30 or so and afterwards very rarely.(I mentioned this in case this has something to do with my present urination problem)

Shall be grateful for your advice whether I can use your suggested “conium and Arnica combination” along with my heart related medicines highlighted in red color and Aspirin in particular.

Thanks and regards.

  “Shall be grateful for your advice whether I can use your suggested “conium and Arnica combination” along with my heart related medicines highlighted in red color and Aspirin in particular.”
  
  You will discover that you will not need the drugs for your Cardiac problems which you have not specified as the combination of Arnica 6 and Nat Phos 6x dose 3 tablets after every meal will ensure that your Cardiac problems will be history in a week. You can report in detail what they are and what drugs you are using for the rec
  
  You should discover that the remedies below will help your Urinary distress in under 6 hours and I would appreciate if you will report the relief you experience with the timing when you first discovered this relief which has been commented upon by other patients.
  
  I shall copy below the therapy I have pioneered to treat problems associated with the Prostate .
  
  The remedies are
  
  Arnica 6c
  Conium 6c
  
  Both remedies to be taken twice daily in the Wet dose made as per instructions below.
  
  The combination of both Conium 6c and Arnica 6c seems to reduce the enlarged Prostate which can sometimes result in Prostatitis, an infection of the Prostate Gland caused by the retention of Urine. The effect of these remedies is usually experienced within a few hours after taking them.
  
  I would recommend that anyone who reads this post and suffers from any difficulty or burning in passing Urine starts taking Conium 6c in the Wet dose ASAP with Arnica 6c twice daily. The joint action of both remedies will ease the flow of urine by relaxing the Prostate in a manner that drugs cannot equal. It will do this very safely in comparison to drugs which usually cause other side effects. These remedies will also reduce the enlarged Prostate which in turn can hopefully rule out surgery.
  
  It is also necessary that a Blood Test is done annually to check the PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) level which is accepted as normal at between 0 – 4. This Blood test can be added to the standard test for Lipid Profile and other factors that your doctor may find necessary.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in a 5ml Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you take a capful which is the dose. Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before a capful of the bottle is sipped as directed.
  
  It is understood that the patient will STOP all other drugs which can antidote the Homeopathy.
  
  The following restrictions must be observed to ensure that the Homeopathy is not antidoted.
  
  Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.
  
  Report progress weekly for further advice if needed.

I must express my gratefulness for remedy for after TURP problems of excessive urination.I was cured in matter of days. i took suggested Arnica30c in wet dose for about two years.

Now I am writing to you for my granddaughter aged 12 who is diagnosed ADHD. She is utterly slow in learning.Is absolutely inattentive.Very less memory.
At time she is hyperactive and becomes agressive. She understand but many a times refuse to acknowledge. Her motor functions are also not satisfactory.

We could not find any thing wrong in MRI,scanning etc.

I will be grateful for taking up her case and suggest us remedy to make her life somewhat meaningful.

  You are advised to continue to take them for LIFE but you may reduce the Arnica 30 to just one dose taken nightly before bed.
  
  I regret that I cannot help your daughter but you may also give her Arnica 30c twice daily and report any difference in her behaviour in a few weeks.
  You can also add Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets taken after each of 3 meals daily.

Also kindly let me know if the Arnica is anti dote to other Homeopathic medicines that are advised for other ailments from time to time.

  Your wife has survived for over 20 years after surgery and is under the treatment of her cardiologist who has prescribed many drugs which you listed. You also stated that she is scheduled for further surgery:
  “above treatment is till my wife is not oprated again for mitral valve by balloon or by valve replacement asap.”
  
  I am not sure that my therapy for MVP can help her but I believe that there is no harm in using it while continuing the drugs and her cardio will be able to monitor her response and decide whether another surgery is indicated in 3 months.
  
  You will keep me informed of her progress often on my Website.
  
  My therapy for MVP is noted below and comprises using Arnica 30c, Nat Phos 6x and Ferr Phos 6x.
  
  Arnica, has the incredible ability of filtering the blood and increasing its flow throughout the body. This increased flow seems to help in stimulating the Mitral valve to close but I cannot understand how this phenomenon does occur and can only quote the cases of patients, whose cardiologists discovered that the heart murmur was not audible in a few months on my therapy. A dose is taken twice daily.
  
  Nat Phos 6x will help by accelerating the passage of food down the gut which will help in your cure. It will also reduce your weight 1kg per week. Dose 3 tablets taken thrice daily after meals. Report your weight reduction.
  
  Ferr Phos 6x will increase the oxygenation of the blood and will help in the curative process.
  Dose 3 tablets taken before meals thrice daily.
  
  You will take a Fish Oil capsule and I would recommend PULSE which is a special Fish Oil extracted from fish in the Arctic Circle which have higher levels of Omega 3.
  
  I presume that you are taking various drugs for your MVP and that you feel tired with pain over the heart. I would appreciate if you will keep me posted with any difference in your symptoms, especially the pain you have experienced over your heart which some patients have reported receded in about a week.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.
  
  Please follow the following restrictions which are essential to ensure that the remedy prescribed is not antidoted:
  
  Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.
  
  Do you have any swelling of your ankles?
  
  You must exercise on a daily basis to ensure that your body is helped by the increased blood flow which will gradually improve the bodily functions by unblocking the micro capillaries which may be blocked.
  
  You will drink over 3 liters water daily to flush out your system.
  
  Report progress weekly.

  It is only the Arnica 30c that you will use 3 drops in 500ml water.
  
  The tablets of Nat Phos 6x and Ferr Phos 6x do not have to be dissolved in water and they can be taken dry on the tongue where they will dissolve in a few seconds.

  I do not have any record of having treated you or your son and presume that you have picked up the 2 remedies which you read about on my Website.
  
  As far as I can see from your statement he seems to have caught the common cold for which there is
  unfortunately no remedy after he catches it. A cold can however be aborted if the patient takes Eupat Perf 200 in the Wet dose within 24 hours of catching the virus. Otherwise the cold will have to run its course usually 5 days.

  Your case is difficult to solve as you have only stated that you suffer from Migraine. Are you sensitive to strong light and did you notice that you get a Migraine shortly after you are?
  For how long have you suffered and what are the drugs prescribed which you state were useless?
  
  I shall prescribe my default therapy for Migraine and you will make it up into a Wet dose as instructed below.
  
  Bryonia 30c is your remedy and you will take it thrice daily before meals.
  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily an hour after meals. STOP all drugs.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Ethanol / Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.

I don,t want to take this allopathy medicine. I don`t have any physical activity and also i don`t even want to go for a walk.

  It is only to be expected that you were a prime candidate for Diabetes as you are grossly overweight at 81kg for your height and you can consider yourself as being very fortunate that you located my Website to enable me to help you to hopefully CURE your Diabetes.
  
  You must however follow my instructions on exercise and diet and I hope you realize that at age 43 with your whole life before you, the chances of your ending up with Cardiac problems is extremely high in a year or two.
  
  I must have a report of your Blood including your Lipid Profile to verify your Cholesterol and other factors. A Liver Profile is also indicated with your Blood Glucose level.
  
  I shall treat your overweight with Nat Phos 6x Dose 2 tablets to be taken after every meal thrice daily.
  
  I shall copy below my default therapy aka “Joepathy” which many Diabetics are using today to control their BS levels.
  
  The remedy I have prescribed is Arnica 3c in the Wet dose which is taken twice daily.
  
  Mag Phos 6x dose 2 tablets taken thrice daily have also helped to reduce BS levels and you can add this to your daily dosage.
  
  Please note that you will most likely notice a dip in your BS level within 24 hours of starting my therapy and you will then have to reduce your dosage of either Metformin or of Insulin as it must be maintained around 110.
  
  Since you have consulted me in time before you were given the standard Metformin, the chances are that you will not need it. It is in your hands to CURE yourself.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.
  
  Exercise is essential to help the Diabetic and unfortunately many are not in the habit of a daily routine of exercise which in many cases is the reason for the increase in Blood Sugar levels. You are advised to start with a brisk walk and you must ensure that you sweat it out to derive any benefit from the exercise.
  
  You will eat sparingly and avoid sugar and starch as far as possible. Fats and oils are taboo to rid your excess weight.
  
  Cinnamon powder is also useful to reduce BS levels and a quarter teaspoonful can be taken brewed as a tea twice daily. Okra or Bandakka which grows in the tropics also helps to reduce BS levels. Okra is used by cutting up a tender pod and inserting it into a glass of water which is left overnight and the water is drunk on an empty stomach the morning after.
  Turmeric has also been discovered to help reduce BS levels and can be used in a similar manner to the Cinnamon.
  
  Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

  Your Cholesterol and Triglycerides are absolutely normal and it is very likely that my therapy for Diabetes will enable you to lead a normal life without having recourse to any drugs which will cause other problems.
  
  You can take the Mag Phos 6x and Nat Phos 6x together but you will leave half hour between other medicines. Report your weight loss which should be 1kg per WEEK. Exercise is essential for you till you sweat it out on a daily basis.
  
  If Arnica 3c is not available you can use the 6c instead. You can order the 3c from other sources.

  Please explain your statement below clearly for me to understand it:
  
  “i also try net phos 6x but no result is seen. daily he vormet 8 to 10 times and more the 3000 drips and invection is use but problem is still there ”
  
  I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.
  
  The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.
  
  You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.
  
  You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.
  
  You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.
  
  It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
  Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.
  
  Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.
  
  You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
  
  If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.
  
  You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

Hello Dr. Joe,

Hope you are doing well today.

I am 36 years old, suffering from back pain (mostly intense in the lower back) and neck pain through out the day. I also have pain radiating down the right leg.

Though I am tolerating the pain and continuing all house hold + office work, it is getting unbearable day by day.

I believe this has been through years of damage, sitting on the laptop to complete my deliverables.

I got an MRI scan yesterday and realized a lot of abnormalities.

I am wondering if you are willing to take my case. If you have the time, I shall email you some snapshot pages of what I have.

In summary, I see a lot of osteophytes, disc osteophyte complexes, dessicatory changes in invertebral discs, mild bulges, and cystic lesions mentioned through out the MRI study.

She has external haemorrhoids, about 30 years old, and 2 children. No bleeding.
She also gets itchy rashes all over the body (from head to toe) which goes away only when she takes an Avial tablet. The doctors have recommended a blood test stating it might be an infection mixed with the blood.

  The remedy that has helped many to overcome Hemorrhoids is:
  
  Hamamellis 200c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
  
  Hamamellis will reduce the Hemorrhoid
  Arnica will treat the rash and also the Hemorrhoid.
  
  You will leave half hour between remedies.
  
  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
  
  Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.

  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.
  
  You will also take Nat Phos 6x dose 3 tablets taken after each of 3 meals to keep the stools soft.
  
  Please follow the following restrictions which are essential to ensure that the remedy prescribed is not antidoted:

  Thank you for recognising my part in treating suffering humanity with my unique form of therapy which is not classical Homeopathy as they, the classical sect on various Forums, dismissed as “Joepathy” (Google) many years ago.
  
  You may like to read the CURE I have published for Covid 19 which has cured many patients in the same manner that it has CURED Dengue which is prevalent in Sri Lanka and many other parts of the World today.
  
  The Remedy is Eupatorium Perfoliatum 200c in the Wet dose which has proved to CURE Corona Victims in 4 days. It is unfortunate that the WHO to whom I offered it refused to accept it and even insulted me with the epitaph “Fake News” even without testing it.
  
  I presume that so much money, perhaps Trillions of Dollars is at stake in terms of the revenue eagerly awaited by Big Pharma which will benefit from the many vaccines that are still in the developmental stage that a Remedy like mine will virtually cut the grass under their feet if only they will test it in any manner they choose. This Remedy was first discovered in the second half of the last Century and is the potentized essence of the Flower Eupatorium Perfoliatum which has proved to Abort the Common Cold, Cured Dengue and has now CURED the Corona Virus.
  
  5000 precious lives are being sacrificed on a daily basis by their refusal to test my Remedy and I hope and pray that they will open their eyes and just TEST IT as prescribed by me.
  
  It is my considered opinion that the Corona Virus can be eradicated from this world within a few weeks if only a concerted effort is put into action to spread the word and use it on all Covid positive patients.
  
  The greatest advantage is that it is very effective as a Prophylactic and it is in use in a Factory in Kolkata where 3000 workers are using it under my prescription with no casualties.
  
  Here in Colombo too it is in use in many business organizations including my own and we have not had any casualties since it was first used since last March.
  
  Someone even remarked that the incidence of Colds and Coughs has abated to zero after our staff was given the option of taking a daily dose of my therapy and they have even reported that they do not suffer from any tiredness when they reach home after a hard day’s work, which they all attribute to the Eupat Perf 200c therapy they are all taking on a daily basis.

My Heart and Blood Pressure are also normal and I do not suffer from Asthma or other complication. I do NOT take any drugs whatever.
  
  Does your Dad suffer from constipation?
  Does he exercise daily by walking?
  How much liquid does he drink and have you done a Urine test for Diabetes?
  Can you copy his report on his damaged lymphatic system?
  Can you massage his feet daily?
  What is his Cardiac status?

I would like get your suggestion on Cholesterol. My sister blood report says bad cholesterol as 170. She is taking allopathic medicine since last 3 months. Dr. said they have given high dose to control it. Is there any remedy in Homeopathy which helps to reduce the Cholesterol and reduce the impact to heart and life.

Kindly suggest

Thanks & Regards
Shan

  When patients like you report on Cholesterol and Triglycerides, I refer them to the many lectures of Prof BM Hegde on YouTube. He is younger than I am at 92, but he is eminently qualified which I am not, as Homeopathy is not my profession. We both concur in exposing what can be the biggest racket that Big Pharma has created a few years ago merely to generate a guaranteed income for its members. The current Virus has gifted them today with an unending source of guaranteed income and the Lab owners are all Billionaires.
  
  My advice is NOT to take the Statins that are usually prescribed which works almost immediately. I prescribe Arnica 30 in the Wet dose to be taken twice daily for life as I have done but in just one dose I take nightly and have proved that it has given me the gift of good health which a recent comprehensive Blood test proved with statistics that all systems are go with levels at normal or below normal, which my consultants admired as I do not take any drugs whatever except on a SOS basis like after surgery.
  
  You are also advised to use Eupatorium Perfoliatum 200c in the Wet dose daily to protect you from the Corona Virus. Study the many cases that I have CURED on my Website and visit:

  I am not aware of a Homeopathic Remedy to help your problem.
  
  You can consult a physician as I know Dactrin can help you but you may need a prescription to get it.

  Arnica 30c in the Wet dose can help your patient taken thrice daily. When she is OK she can take Arnica less frequently as I will instruct you when you report her progress weekly.
  
  Order the remedy in the Ethanol / Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
  Pour out about half the water from the bottle as the alcohol sometimes changes the taste of the medicated water in about a month, when a fresh batch should be made.
  Insert 5 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a dose which is 5ml or a teaspoonful as prescribed.
  
  Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a teaspoonful.
