To Mr. Joe De Livera:

Hello. I read an old post on ABC Homeopathy forum regarding a man who had severe eczema and you told him to try Arnica 6C. There were other people as well who reported success with this remedy for eczema. So, after suffering with eczema on my face and hands, but mainly my hands, I thought I would try it. Lo and behold four days later I am much improved!!!

The question I have is why does it work? Another homeopath I visited recommended cyclomen Europeum for my constitutional remedy, but the arnica seems to be solving my immediate problem.

Thank you, Mr. De Livera.

I had told my homeopath about this phenomenon and she was quite distressed and replied: "But you are not an Arnica type," and that I couldn't know for sure that the Arnica helped me. But I know that two days after taking it I did see a lessening of my symptoms, and that was after having lived with a maddening rash for over a month.

Is there any harm in taking another remedy other than the so-called constitutional remedy? How do I know the cyclomen europeum is right for me? Is Arnica my constitutional remedy? I have so many questions.
