My Many Uses for Homeopathy
I’ve been using remedies since I was about 15. That’s 17 years. But it has only been for the past 10 years that I’ve really increased my knowledge because of the needs of my three boys.I have so many stories to relate that I don’t know where to start. But I try to pick some of the most striking from over the years.
My oldest son contracted infantile botulism when he was 4 months old. He spent 3 weeks on a ventilator and 5 weeks total in the hospital. When he was released, he was on two laxatives because the toxin had paralyzed his bowel, and he still couldn’t go to the bathroom. I took him off the laxatives as soon as possible because I didn’t want him dependent on them. But his constipation became extremely severe. Not even suppositories and enemas would always work. I decided to try a remedy, but didn’t really think it would help (I was inexperienced). I gave Calc. Carb. 30c. He had a spontaneous bowel movement that day and was not constipated again for some weeks.
Two years ago I had a serious case of bronchitis. I had severe shortness of breath and felt extremely cold. I thought I would have to go to the hospital. But I took one dose of Calc. Carb. 200c, and within minutes I could breath and felt much more positive. By the end of the week, the bronchitis was so much better that I was functioning almost normally.
My 3 year old son began to come down with chest congestion one evening, it came on very rapidly with lots of rattling mucous and wheezing. I gave him one dose of Sulphar 30c and within one hour there was no more wheezing. He woke the next morning with no sickness whatever.
My oldest son has ADHD and tends to get very hysterical and emotional. It can become nearly impossible to deal with him. He also has trouble sleeping and tends to jerk and twitch in his sleep. On one occasion when it had gotten very bad, I gave him a dose of Ignatia 30c. He very quickly composed himself and for the rest of the week was a different child, calm and positive.
My kids have never suffered with bee stings. Every time they get stung, I give them a dose of Apis 30c, and the pain is gone within 5 minutes.
I took Phos. 30c for severe arthritic hip and low back pain. The pain disappeared, and my chiropracter noted that my adjustment was very easily the next time I went in. I told him about the remedy, and he asked me to bring him some information about homeopathy.
I’ll send more stories some other time if you can use them.
