My husband and I have been under the care of a homeopathy for about 19 months. He originally started working with us at the request of our marriage counselor who couldn't make any head way after a year of counselling. We started seeing results within the first three months of treatment and seemed to really make some headway around the 9th month. My husband could not express emotions, communicate feelings, seemed to be clueless as far as what he needed to do to support me and love me as a husband. He had gone through an alcohol recovery program about ten years ago and has been sober ever since, but things still seemed to continue down hill, mentally, emotionally, etc. over the years. The changes have been tremendous since we started working with our homeopath and our "marital" problems, communication problems have for the most part cleared up. During the course of his treatment he was given Lyc 1M, twice, Ignatia and Graphites (not sure if it was 200C or 1M), one time each. Thuja 1M was given around the 9th month, Nov. 1999, which really seemed to help clear his mind and open the path for him to be able to communicate. At this time he also came down with a lot of physical symptoms, chest cold, laryngitis, nasal discharge and eye infection. All symptoms he has suffered with in the past. After several weeks all symptoms disappeared except the eye infection. He was given a second dose of Thuja 1M in Jan. or Feb. of 2000. All symptoms reacurred and left after a period of several weeks again, except the eye infecton. He also started complaining about pain on the left side of his face. He had a trauma injury to that side of his face 20 years ago. Was kicked in the face while playing soccer. Had to have surgery, some bone was replaced with teflon plates. The pain has gotten a little better, but has not totally gone away. Another dose of Thuja 1M was given in May. At this point he started having a lot of yellow discharge from the left side of the nose,the discharge is foul smelling, continued pain in the face, headaches and still the eye infection (yellow discharge). He was then given Anacardium 30c in July. This helped releive the pain for about two weeks, but then the pain returned. The anacardium was given again in a 200C dose the first week of August. The pain comes and goes, the discharge from the nose and eye are still present along with the foul smell. He also has suffered from back pain for the past six years after his back was jarred on a loading dock at work. All of the mentals seem to be doing great. We had hoped to finish up with his case months ago clearing the back pain and (I forgot to mention) a few lypoma on his torso and left arm. The face pain, nose and eye discharge were not an issue when we started treatment. Does any one have an opinion on where this might have gone wrong? I was wondering if it has something to do with the three doses of Thuja. Any in put would be greatly appreciated. My husband is greatful for the help/changes homeopathy has brought so far. But he is getting worn down from the physical side effects he is suffering. Please Help! Kathi
