Will do. Thanks once again.

GM,

Just ordered the tuberculinum cm, but it won't get here for about a week. Interesting though, I just found out from my mother that her grandfather had tuberculosis!

Also, what to avoid with this remedy?

Fine, you confirmed it..nothing to avoid.

GM
You are constantly amazing. Never could I guess how you linked toothache and then hives with Tub.

Would you care to explain.

Thanks

GM,

I just noticed the thread on back symptoms being key, and it got me wondering if I didn't underestimate my back symptoms in my case history. Basically, I had chronic back spasms between 1988-1998 (usually left side, mid back), as well as occasional neck spasms for which I was getting chiropractic. In 1998 I heard something pop in my lower back while lifting something heavy, and I was in excruciating pain for 3 weeks. At that point I started practicing biofeedback for stress (Dr. Sarno's technique). I was fine for about 8 months, then the lower back flared up again (just as bad), but, while practicing the technique, I was back on my feet in just 5 days this time. I've not had an episode since, but my lower back often tightens up, and feels as though it could seize up, but it never does, and I've always attributed it to the biofeedback. That's why I didn't make a big deal about it in my case history.

Don't mean to be a pain, but are these symptoms consistent with tub. cm? (better to be sure now before I take it, right?)

Anyway, I apologize for the confusion. I'm still learning about what's important in case taking...

RF

Maybe or maybe not, cause tub, is a remedy under the calcium group..what your spine is built up of. So, just go ahead. It will clear out this picture.

Great, thanks for the clarification GM-I really appreciate it.

I should be getting the Tub. on Wednesday.

While we're waiting tor tub to arrive...

Sorry about the quick re-post GM, but the hives have now spread to the left arm for the first time (11 days after hepar sulph c200). Also, the moth ball odor has returned with the abscess discharge, as well as the salty taste.

My youngest daughter (calc carb 200c) also had her right wrist explode with hives all of a sudden; both of our symptoms seemed to coincide with us closing the windows of our house and turning on the air conditioner. Mold?

Thanks GM,

It appears that the hive intensity had nothing to do with the air conditioning (and/or possible mold), but rather with hot, humid weather. The weather turned very sticky here the last 2 days, and my daughter & I notished an increase in hive intensity. Similar feeling also when taking a warm shower. This time we kept the windows open and the air conditioning off to test it, and sure enough, it was the humidity.

As for the tooth abscess, the mothball odor from the drainage gradually grew very strong up until yesterday (16 days post hepar sulph 200c), at which point it suddenly went away. The salty taste is also gone as of today. It seems like it's cycling back & forth.
Also, for myself, I've noticed an increase in energy & desire to get more things done. Lapses in concentration & focus still persist.
GM, in the past I managed to control late season hay-fever allergies with honey & vinegar with a cup of tea. When tub arrives, I'm thinking of staying off the potion, just in case it's masking.

Fine, it works.

OK GM, here's what happened the first week after tub cm.
Before I give the day-to-day, let me add a few things that I ommitted from my case history (in case they make a difference):

When I stand barefoot I always do it on the outside of the feet, I don’t plant my feet flat on the ground. White/yellow coating on tongue, usually brush it off when brushing teeth. Hands often bunch up in fists, with thumbs curled under other fingers, not over. Always had intense big toe spasms.)

Generally, no major aggros from the tub.

Scalp (& neck) acne persisting throughout the week. Not disfiguring, but definately still there.

DAY1: 16 hours after taking tub, left ear began to itch (3:00 PM) for about 1 hour.
Abscess seemed to settle down: Less discharge than previously, no odor, no taste.

DAY2:
Hives itched more than previous day (hives on inner left bicep, and outer left forearm). Itch worse early AM (7:00 AM-9:00 AM) and late night (11:00 PM-midnight).
Abscess: Still low discharge, no taste or odor for most of the day; at 11:00 PM, significant discharge but still no odor or taste.

DAY3:
Abscess still subdued.
Congested left nostril upon waking up; also, itchy inner corner of left eye.
NEW: Bad breath (more musty than sharp & acrid); subdued by the afternoon.
Itch from hives: Less intense most of the day, but left arm itchy at 9:00-11:00 PM.
Started a mild spasm in the back, left side, bottom of ribcage.
Big left toe cramping (2:00 PM)
Itchy right inner ear at 11:00 PM

DAY4: Dull, mild headache in left sinus, behind left eye, & top left area of scull (Noon-1:00 PM).
Needle-prick sensation on tongue (to the right of the tip; 1:00-2:00 PM)
Abscess: Mothball odor & salty taste returns strong at 2:00 PM; discharge increases.
Hive itchiness: decreased today.
Felt more energetic in the AM.
Returning home, house was upside-down because my wife was re-arranging the furniture in most of the house. Chaos & uncertainty really drains me physically & emotionally (always been this way; I prefer order).

DAY5: Needleprick sensation on tongue (left side of tip) following lunch again; lasted ~5 minutes.
Less prone to anger, more patient, not as irritable as usual.
Abscess still productive, mothball odor still present.
Hive itch still comes & goes, was back again late PM.
Tightness on right deltoid muscle, late afternoon into late PM.

DAY6: Itchy hives on left arm & leg woke me up at 5:00 AM; didn’t last long. Very little itching the rest of the day, even in the PM.
Abscess still productive (mothball odor still present).
Still noticing that I’m less prone to anger, irritation & temper; more patient.
Mild earache (upon pressure) & inflammation of outer part of left ear canal.
LAST3 DAYS: Waking up with painfully full bladder in the morning; also having an unusually hard time recalling dreams.

DAY7: Abscess production diminished today; mothball odor gone most of the day-returned late PM after an evening shower.
Hives on left arm & leg: Very little itching (9:00 PM).
Mild earache & inflammation continuing from yesterday (not getting any worse)
Still less prone to anger, temper, & irritability.

DAY8: Mothball odor from abscess gone again.
Mild left earache & inflammation subsiding.
A little hive itching on right calf this morning.
Stiffness in right deltoid muscle returns (mid-AM)
Mild but sharp short pains in lower abdomen. Doesn't last more than a few minutes, and not very intense.

That's it for this week. How do you think all this sounds?

Thanks,

RF
