I few of my homeopathic remedies went through airport x-ray scan. Are they still OK? I usually hand them to an official & let them know they shouldn't be irradiated, but I forgot I had these particular ones in a suitcase.

Nike

We don't know anything about our remedies. What are the ingridients in them. As these are potentized form. No actual molecule exists in belladona 200 potency. (I don't know what is the actual position but was told us when I was studying homeopathy)

In my personal opinion , X-Rays do effect the potentcies.

there is no conclusive answer on this but the consensus seems to be that the efficacy of potentized remedies might be diminshed by repeated exposure to radiation.

there is more exposure to radiation during a flight than from the x-ray security scan, so to minimise the potential problem when flying it is worth obtaining a leaded bag. these are made to store film during flights, and are available from photographic shops fairly cheaply.
a second benefit is that airport security hardly ever bother to check them so your airport hassle is reduced.

Don't worry everyone !

I've been a radiographer for 30 years and I haven't lost my potency !!!

Seriously though maybe I should do a study- anyone any ideas on how that could be done ??

Incidentally visiting many places in England can give a dose greater than having a dxa scan !!
(eg Cornwall)

hoppit..

how could we prepare x-ray 30

There can also be a VIBRATIONS effect on dilutions while in flight or while travelling.

I have just returned from a trip overseas and was interested to see the postings on the possible effect of X Rays on Homeopathic Remedies. I had never thought of the possible damage that X Rays may cause but it is interesting to note that I had to use 2 remedies to treat a virulent Cold virus that I caught shortly after returning home.

I used Gels 30 to treat the head cold which it did successfully and when the virus migrated to the throat I used Bell 30 with success. Both these remedies were from the stock of remedies that I took with me which had been subjected to over 12 X Ray examinations but they seemed to work as effectively as they did prior to any X Ray procedures.

Would it be safe to presume therefore that Homeopathic Remedies are not affected by X Rays ?

Dear Kayveeh,

You requested me to share my experience in the use of Homeopathic Remedies in the cure of human ailments. I do not have any experience in the cure of Diabetes and am following the discussion in another BB where many remedies have been mentioned but none has been found to be successful in its treatment.

I cannot understand how the article on BPH came into my last posting as this was one that I had sent 3 years ago and did not appear on the Preview Post when I sent in my last posting. It is interesting to record that since that last posting I have had surgery on my Prostate which went into urine retention as a result of a long 22 hour virtually non stop flight I did a year ago from Colombo to Los Angeles. I believe that the low oxygen content in the plane at 39000 ft coupled to the low humidity and temperature all contributed to this problem.

I had surgery in Columbus OH and an open Prostectomy was carried out successfully. The sequel to this surgery is of interest as when I regained conciousness I discovered that I was hooked up to a syringe of Morphine which the nurse instructed me to use when necessary. I requested that the Morphine be disconnected immediately and she refused to do so on the grounds that it would cause me unnecessary pain and discomfort. I then requested my surgeon to do so and informed him that I felt quite able to withstand the pain. He reluctantly had the morphine disconnected and unknown to him and the nurses I used Arnica 200 every 3 hours and the effect was almost almost unbelieveable. I was without any pain except when I coughed and the medical staff were amazed as to how I could possibly survive without the morphine.
My recovery was also very quick and I was discharged in 5 days. It was only later that I linformed them of my secret remedy Arnica, and I hope that they use it instead of morphine on their patients after surgery.

I have been self proving Arnica for many years and have discovered that it is perhaps the most fascinating of remedies used in Homeopathy and have discovered many uses for it which are not listed in the texts.

I have used it successfully for Acne with almost 100% success. It clears up the rash of pimples, a problem which almost all children have to suffer during puberty. I was one of those afflicted badly and unfortunately I was not at that time even aware of Homeopathy. Styes was another matter and this problem bothered me even a few months ago as I had stopped taking my daily dose of Arnica 30 since my surgery last October and discovered that the eyelids of both my eyes were getting infected. I was compelled to have them lanced and scooped out and this was the 4th time that I had to suffer this ignominy. I had been taking Arnica 30 for my prostate since 1996 and with the stoppage of this daily dose the styes started to form in my eyelids. I then remembered that it was the lack of Arnica that was the cause and started on my usual daily dose with positive results. No more Styes !

I had noticed a loss of hair shortly after my Prostatectomy last October after which I stopped my regular nightly dose of Arnica 30 which I started in 1996. I was losing about 50 hairs daily and was beginning to worry about it till I started on the nightly dose about 2 months ago as my eyelids were full of styes which would migrate from one eyelid to the other and these all cleared up with the Arnica. I also noticed that the itching of my scalp stopped almost immediately after starting the Arnica and a few small blisters I had at the back of my scalp which were bothering me when I combed my hair had also disappeared. I now have many new hairs in both black and grey which I find difficult to comb and keep down as they tend to stick up straight. There is no question that the Arnica 30 which I take every night has stimulated the growth of hair which is remarkable at my age of 74 today.

I also use Arnica 30 to avoid Jet lag and take 4 balls bd the day before flying. I also take it during the flight and sleep very soundly on board and take the same dose on the day of arrival with absolutely no jet lag.

I have come to the conclusion that Arnica 30 can safely be used daily and it is possible that I owe my low BP of 120/80 with pulse of 70 at my age to Arnica. It is possible that this remedy eases the flow of blood in the capillaries where the platelets seem to block up with age, thereby not permitting the extremities to recover fully during sleep. I have no pains at all in my body and do a regular almost daily exercise routine of an hour in the park located just over the road at my residence.

I used to have regular bouts of Migrane and the daily dose of Arnica may have been responsible for the fact that I have not had a single headache since I started on Arnica in 1996.

I recommend Bryonia 200 for migraine to my friends and it occurs to me now that I might also try Arnica 200 on the next victim !

There is no question that I owe Homeopathy and specifically ARNICA a deep debt of gratitude.

I do hope that my 3 year old posting on Arnica which appeared below my last posting here will not appear again below this but if it does, please ignore it.
