Hello Joe,

I have a 9 week old boy who is slightly over 12lbs. He was diagnosed with acid reflux 3 weeks ago and prescribed Zantac. The drug seemed to work wonders for the first few days and then his acid refux symptoms seemed to progressively get worse. The doctor just recently increased his dose of Zantac. I don’t think the medicine is working well and I prefer to use natural means.

Symptoms: I am unable to nurse my baby since he refuses the breast (I have to pump and bottle feed). When I feed him the bottle (with breastmilk) he is fine while he is eating, but afterwards always spits up. He has constant gas. In addition to giving him Zantac. I have also been using colic calm and he has been wearing a hazlewood necklace for the past two weeks (this hasn’t seemed to work). I would like to go back to nursing him from my breast as pumping for every feeding as well as taking care for my 23month old is getting exhausting.

Should I proceed with your normal ‘prescription’ of Nat Phos? Also what recommendation do you have for changes in my diet (I’ve a vegetarian who just recently cut out dairy to see if that helped). I am willing to do whatever it takes for my baby…

Thanks for all you do!

Sonya

I noticed that you have addressed me by my given name, Joe.
I do not permit being addressed by name on my website, as I only permit my peers and close friends to do so.

Here in Sri Lanka where I live, we have a modicum of respect for age.
I am 86 years old.

Dear Dr. De Livera

Please accept my apologies. I did not intend to disrespect you in any way.

I noticed how you replied to subsequent post concerning a baby with a similar problem. I started my baby on the Nat Phos last night and will continue to do so as you outlined below to ‘salempeacock’.

Could you please tell me know more about specific foods I should avoid eating that will help my baby?

Thanks so much!

Very Respectfully,
Sonya

Apology accepted. I felt that I should protest because it did seem strange to me have a stranger addressing me an 86 year old, by name on a first encounter.

You did right by giving baby Nat Phos 6x (half tablet before and the balance after) a feed.

I would suggest that you too take the same Nat Phos tablets , 2 after each meal, as the effect will pass over to baby in your breast milk.

Keep me advised of his response in 24 hours.

Do not ever give him the dangerous PPI drugs like Zantac and about 50 other brands which is what doctors are programmed to give even baby patients although they are all aware of the serious damage these drugs cause to adults which is only second to the damage cause by Statins which are liberally prescribed to reduce Cholesterol.

Dear Dr. De Livera,

Thank you for accepting my apology and the quick response!

I have discontinued use of the PPI drug and am so glad I did after reading everything about it.

I will definitely report back after 24 hours. I am affirming that the Nat Phos is working and will be reporting back great news soon…

V/R,
Sonya

Good Morning Dr. De Livera,

Thanks again for the support you are providing, I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. This was the soonest I was able to update.

My son has been on Nat Phos for 36 hours as you advised and his progress is as follows:

Initial 24 hours:
-Gas seemed to exit his body less forcefully and had a very strong foul odor
-The first 4 feedings went well with minimal spit up and fussing
-The last 2 feedings he squealed in pain and had a large amount of spit up
-I did not administer Nat Phos during the middle of the night feeding

Please note: I administered 1 tsp of 100% aloe vera juice to help soothe his tummy in the late evening (please let me know if I should not do this)

Subsequent 12 hours:

-First two feedings were difficult (he was in pain and didn’t want to finish nursing) so his subsequent naps were short and he was fussy
-The remaining feedings of the day I began giving him a full tablet of Nat Phos before and after the feeding
-The late afternoon feeding went very, very well he nursed very well and did not squeal in pain during the feeding. He had some fussiness after the feeding and spit up quite a bit. This feeding was followed by the restful (and only) nap of the day.
The next feeding went ok, he got a full nursing but squealed in pain in between switching breasts, this feeding was followed by spit up and burping. I’m waiting for him to fall asleep now for a catnap before I feed him again and lay him down for the evening.
-Note: all day he has been having very foul smelling gas
-Also note: Today I started him infant pro biotics and plan on continuing this unless otherwise directed.

I am very much looking forward to hearing how I should proceed. And again thank you so much for your time and sharing your knowledge.

Very Respectfully,
Sonya Gardner

He seems to be responding satisfactorily for 36 hours under my therapy.

” I administered 1 tsp of 100% aloe vera juice to help soothe his tummy in the late evening (please let me know if I should not do this)”
DO NOT EVER GIVE BABY ALOE VERA JUICE IN THE FUTURE.

Dr. De Livera,

Thank you so much for guidance. I will not give my baby aloe anymore.

I was wondering if you can tell me about two things: 1) Will the foul odor gas subside once he is cured? , is this smell the cause of detoxification? and 2) Seeing how he is responding satisfactorily for the first 36 hours, it is expected that he will be cured by the end of 72 hours and that i will no longer have to administer Nat Phos?

Thank you so much,

V/R,
Sonya

I believe that your baby needs a repopulation of the bacteria (flora and fauna) in his gut. Ask for a Probiotic suitable for babies from your pediatrician. It is very likely that there is some bacteria that are causing the milk to generate methane which is what causes the unpleasant odour which incidentally is not usual for babies. The Probiotic will fix this problem by repopulating the gut with ‘good’ bacteria and all will be well.

Glad to learn that baby responded so very quickly in just 36 hours and if in fact he does not show any signs of distress in the next 72 hours, please feel free to stop all medication.

In any case Nat Phos 6x is NOT a drug and you are invited to look it up on Google under “Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salt”

Good Morning Dr. De Livera,

Thank you so much for helping me regain my son’s health. It is safe to say that he is cured!

He does spit up still on occasion but it is mimimal and it is not accompanied by painful squeels or cries.

I really appreciate you very much!!!!!

I would also like to share with you and others an additional intervention that supplemented the therapy you prescribed. I believe my son was suffering from “Lactose Overload” caused by an over abundant milk supply (more information found here: http://www.babycareadvice.com/babycare/general_help/article.php?id=18)

As you discussed in the previous reply, gas should not be foul in odor. I have started him on pro biotics and also did some research regarding infant foul gas and found the above website.

In an attempt to have a ‘backstock’ of milk for returning back to work and to ensure that I didn‘t experience low supply (like I did with my first) I ended up creating an oversupply which set the stage for ‘lactose overload’ and then was realized by the oversupply coupled with my poor management of feedings. The oversupply was created when I began expressing extra milk after each morning feed starting when he was 3 weeks old; I would often express 6-8 ouncces after feeding him. My feeding management was poor in the essencse that I switched breasts too frequently causing my son to get too much foremilk compared to hind milk.

For the past 36 hours I have been block feeding him ensuring he is getting more hind milk and his smelly gas has completely subsided. I am still continuing the pro biotics which will be good to help undue any depletion of good bacteria that occurred because of the PPI (he was on for 3 weeks).

Thanks again for all you do!

Very Respectfull,
Sonya

A patient records her experience in taking Arnica 30c in the Wet dose every 2 hours both before and after a Laparoscopic Hysterectomy using the Da Vinci Robot assisted method.

I was absolutely surprised to read her response in 48 hours:
“It is just 2 days since surgery and there is no pain just a bit of tenderness near my belly button as one incision was made there and 2 closer to my hips. I suffered from gas pains yesterday but that no longer is a problem. I am able to walk around the house normally and even did some cooking. ”

Here is her record of her surgery in her own words

Arnica prevents post-surgery pain

Dear Joe, as you suggested I began the wet dose every 2 hours a day before my surgery. Although I had woken up that day feeling lethargic, it was like it gave me a shot of energy. The next morning Oct 6, I was up early and in a great mood as I headed out for my laproscopic hysterectomy. They used the Da Vinci – robot assisted method.

Many times after I came out of surgery the nurses and my doc asked me if I was feeling pain, but there was none, although it could be due in part to the pain killer in the IV. But they seemed surprised that I was quite alert so soon after a 1.5 hour surgery able to speak to them clearly. The doc said it was a perfect surgery as my levels were all perfect and I didn’t bleed much. I was pleased to hear that – she said at 51 yrs many women are already on daily medication for either diabetes, bp, heart, thyroid, cholesterol etc. I don’t take any medications at all. I was discharged from hospital the same day although she said I could stay if I felt like it.

I continued with the 2 hourly Arnica even after surgery and can attribute my quick recovery to your prescription. It is just 2 days since surgery and there is no pain just a bit of tenderness near my belly button as one incision was made there and 2 closer to my hips. I suffered from gas pains yesterday but that no longer is a problem. I am able to walk around the house normally and even did some cooking. My family is surprised at the speed of recovery. Thanks Joe. So glad that I didn’t bother buying the Percocet and other strong painkillers that Dr. Shuman recommended. She and the nurses asked what it was I was taking .. and yes I told them about Arnica in the wet dose. Joepathy wins again!

On Oct 19 you will turn 86 Joe! How fulfilling your life must be being able to help and heal so many. God bless you always.
Cathy

Thank you for recording your response to my Pre and Post Surgical therapy with Arnica 30c which as I informed you, was first used by me way back in 2002 when I was in surgery for a Retropubic Prostatectomy, when I just refused to be treated with the Morphine Auto dosage syringe ($200) which was already connected to my IV line when I woke up and which I insisted on being disconnected after I gave a waiver to the hospital in Columbus OH, absolving them from any claim in the event of my passing out ! I used the same Arnica 30c protocol every 2 hours and at age 72, I too surprised the nursing staff and my surgeon by walking out of hospital on the 5th day post surgery. My recovery too was very fast like yours and I do hope that other patients who contemplate any future surgery will follow my protocol as it has worked for me and many patients whom I have advised subsequently.

I do admire your pluck in returning back to your normal housework in 24 hours after discharge from hospital but I would recommend that you do rest more and also take a nap after lunch for which I felt the need after my surgery.

I had not heard of the procedure you had, the “Da Vinci Robotic Assisted Hysterectomy” and I did a search on Google and was delighted to watch the procedure on:

This YouTube clip is just over 8 minutes long and I presume that this was the whole surgical procedure. The bleeding was minimal.

You and your husband have been my patients for over 5 years and you are witnesses to the incredible power of this simple and safe remedy Arnica which we all use on a daily basis. We are living testimony to the efficacy of this remedy and all I can do is to advise anyone who reads this thread to take Arnica 30c in the Wet dose as per instructions below nightly or more often as needed throughout their lives and thereby enjoy the status of wellness that we, who have taken this remedy, in my case since 1996 and in the case of Cathy for over 5 years, all enjoy.

For the record, I would like to state that I will turn 86 years of age on the 19th October and I do still drive to work daily in my family owned business organization the running of which I now share with my youngest son. I do not have any ache or pain in my body when I wake up after just 6 hours sleep. I do exercise for about an hour daily and do not take any drugs whatever and my vital statistics are all at normal levels.

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.

I am copying the conversations I had with Jenny just 2 days ago when she consulted me about her Acne and was pleasantly surprised to have a post from her a short while ago where she states:

“I am so happy to see that all my acne have started to dry off. The pain is gone.The big pimples have started to shrink.”

Sir
I am 37 years old. I have been having acne since march this year.It started as small sand grain like pimples.But now I get very big ones which scar and looks like keloid. But it is interesting to note that the pimples are mostly on the right cheek and only a very few are on the left. I have taken antibiotics and used topical creams to no use. Also I changed my soap. I have a little oily skin which was clear. I have never had acne all through life. Now I am using cetaphil soap. I just came across your website today and was so glad you are patiently treating so many people. I believe that you can help me with my problem too. Awaiting your earliest reply as I am totally depressed of my acne.

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.

Use 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.

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.

Thankyou very much sir. Is it ok to use soap on the face during the therapy ? If so could you please suggest.

You may use any mild soap when washing your face as you should discover in under a week that your lesions will stabilize.

I would appreciate if you will please report your progress as soon as you discover your acne drying up as patients have reported that they did so on the third day after their first dose of Arnica 6c.

Sir
I have been using arnica 6c wetdose two days now.. according to your advice. And I am so happy to see that all my acne have started to dry off. The pain is gone.The big pimples have started to shrink. Thankyou so very much sir. I have been spraying the wetdose on my face too. But today I could not do so.. as I had to go to work. And I also put powder on my face today. Maybe because of that…one or two pimples have flared up a bit now in the afternoon compared to how it was in the morning. Should I stop using talcum powder on my face ? And is it ok if I spray the medicine in the morning and evening alone ? Please could you advice.

Res Sir,

It was nice in talking to you after a long time. Really Sir you are a great personality who is doing a lot for many many people who are having different different health problems.

On your advice I have taken Arnica 6 dose as you prescribed many years before I used regularly for two continuous years & it did a lot of change in my insulin dose. From 26 units of insulin which I use to take daily before breakfast & 22 units before dinner has been totally reduced to just 6 to 8 units before breakfast & 6 units before dinner.

Really really appreciable.

I thank you from the core of my heart.

With Warm Regards,
