doctorleela - Thanks again for the information and I see again that there is vigorous debate among homeopaths regarding treatment options. I had a previous extended involvement with homeopathy - not helpful I'm sorry to report - but I did observe that although I took 7 high potency remedies over the course of a year, I never suffered an aggravation or noticed any effect at all for that matter. So in this case I feel comfortable taking the Ruta 30 twice a day after taking the Arnica 200 and waiting for 48 hours. I will then switch to Ruta once day when 80% symptom-free. Does that sound okay?

Dennis Roth

Sounds OK to me Dennis!
Keep us informed.

Warm regards,
doctorleela

Hi Dennise,

As I suggested on the other BB, First Arnica and then follow with other indicated remedies, which is the correct procedure.

One remedy at a time is the Principle here.

No offence to any body, I am just following the laws which were laid down by our master Dr. Hahnemann.

God Bless All.

Dennis,

Don't be worry, There is no rule for prescription in homeopathy. Homeopathy is not science. It is a trick which can change every time while playing with your patient. It is all base on your mind. How you will treat every patient with new laws and so called principle. You just concentrate on your treatment. Dr.leela is an excellent prescriber and all she is doing keeping in view of her clinical experience and rules which are laid down by MASster Hahenmann.

Hahnemann wrote his clinical experience and observation in his book organon. He had the right to wrote his experience in his book and we have the right now to write our experience and observations in our book.

He rejected cullen's statement written in cullen's materia medica on some logic and his personal observation. We have the right to reject Dr. Samuel Hahnemann statement on our logic and our observation.

Dannis,

Please read this para. It will help you to understand homeopathy.

There are approx 30 methods/procedure, which one may adopt for prescription. In homeopathy you could prescribe remedy on the following basis
On Constitution (A complete picture of a patient)
On Miasm (It is just a hypothesis.)
On Drug picture (Comparing patient with a single remedy)
On symptoms (But not total symptoms of a patient)
On disease Names (So many diseases are mentioned as symptoms in materia medica)
On remedies action (specifics) (Arnica will help in smooth blood circulation)
On clinical observation (although the remedy which is going to be prescribe, has no such symptom in materia medica)
When you will deal with a patient listen every thing. Then judge your self and see, on the basis of strong symptoms, in which box you will place the patient e.g. constitutional box, miasmatic box, totality of symptom box, disease box, remedies specifics box or clinical trial box. etc If in your opinion the patient is fit in miasmatic box, have strong symptoms on miasm then add only those symptoms in your computer which are directly linked with miasm and discard all other symptoms.
On Patient next visit, see, which miasmatic complains are gone and which are still alive. You will observe that beside miasmatic symptoms, some other general symptoms are also gone.
Again repertorize the case in full sense, take all symptoms of a patient, analyze them, and see again, in which box you will place the patient, this time. If in your opinion the patient is now may be treated on his/her general symptom then add all general symptom of that patient, which have direct linked with his/her complain and discard all other general symptoms.
There are so many methods, you can apply in homeopathy for prescription. No body knows, which method a homeopath will adopt for his/her patient. In homeopathy there is no rule. We have to depend upon the doctor’s own choice for selection of method out of more then 30 procedures/methods.

Treating a patient with evident symptoms is Labourer’s Work
Preventing symptoms from breaking out is Architect’s Work.

Hi Dennis,

Based on the NEW information you posted on a recent thread, I think Sashi is completely right here. Only Arnica is indicated for the moment.

I based the prescription on information you provided earlier and assumed that tendons in the knee were also affected. If that is not so, the Ruta would not be indicated, unless Arnia failed to provide you adequate relief. I also made a mistake of not asking you more deatils about the injury.

Still Sometimes it is difficult to diagnose minimal injury to tendons unless a nagging pain persists over time.

Do remember in future to post precise information foll a diagnosis as prescriptions of this type may depend on them.
regards,
doctorleela

Hans,

Thank you for you post. But i'm fraid, I missed out what you were suggeting. I was not sure what you were finding fault with exactly.

I have made the post above based on the new diagnosis that the patient himself brought after consulting an orthopaedic as well a Shashi's repsectful opinion on what she thought was the prescription (as she had posted on the other BB.)

regards,
doctorleela

Dr.leela
Ill try to explain.
this is what i wrote:
C-POTENCIES: The selected remedy (here Arn) in a single dose, dry or liquid, ONCE OFF, and then observe, what progress is made after 24- 48 hours.
(LM’s see article on www.Boger-Boenninghausen.com/ )

so my suggestion here is to give Arn here first in a single dose of an C-potency and then see after 24-48 hours.
I gathered from the previous postings, that Arn just fitted better to the present disease-picture.
I have received beneficial results from a single dose of Arnica in high potency in single cases for more than a year without repetition.
i hope this explains my posting.

Hans,

That sounds to the point.Thank you. I'd have appreciated it better if you did so the last time.

I don't see any need for quotations from the masters.

doctorleela
