Simone,

I have to say, I agree wholeheartedly with Kathy.
Our pharmacies sell acute prescribing 30C kits because they fully intend for you to treat nausea and vomiting and other unbearable conditions, and as Kathy stated, when you get the right remedy, you get your life back!

Kathy's niece had tried numerous remedies before symph. was tried. She tried Ipecac, Sepia, and heaven knows what else. Nothing helped. But she didn't give up, and she didn't say, "Oh, I must be screwing up my case by taking so many remedies!" When the right remedy was given, it worked. This has always been my experience.

I know that what Denise says it true. A 6X can aggravate. A high potency can aggravate. Taking the remedy repeatedly when not needed can aggravate. Too many succussions and too many pellets can aggravate. I try to give out warnings to people: Don't repeat if the remedy is working! If there's an aggravation, stop taking the remedy! If you've prescribed low, or even a 30C, the aggravation will wear off soon.

There's a bumper sticker:
Homeopathy-the safer medicine

It's not totally safe, but it is the safer medicine. No need to be afraid, you have more to gain in trying than lose.
