My question is about the remedy taking in this case. That what potency to take and what doses and how often and etc.

And of course if there is something to say about the desicion to take the arsenicum album for this case.

I have used www.abchomeopathy.com remedy-online-finder to examine this case.

Here is link to my reasearches.

If you click the "NEXT" button on that page, you can see what else is recommended that arsenicum album and which symptoms refer to which remedies, and other useful information.

Hi Sari,

It's difficult for us to say based on that. We would need to "hear" the case from you, in your words. Plus there is an awful lot of rubrics, it looks like you haven't found the "core" issue.

Barb

ok, thanki you for your reply.

First when i started to take this case it was because this person were diagnosed or self-diagnosed to have general / generalized anxiety disorder.

Other symptom studies are to deeper my research.

mmm. give me more hints how to help you undestand this case

Seroxat/(Paxil) and "neurolepts" Risperdal.

There are so many things in my researh because, i wanted to study it deeply because it was at the beginning also arsenicum album and it can be easily misused. Well if you study that link, you find that there are some features that only belong to arsenicum album and i have read from one materia medica about arsenicum and asked questions from there too,

Really i am just interested about the remedy taking, but there seems to be many opinions about that.

Somebody told you that we treat the symptoms and not the patient, hence you compiled all relevent and irrelevent symptoms even some symptoms are duplicate and opposite. I am not in a position to recommend anything because I got my retirement from homeopathy in 1994. One of the strong reason was I can't find a single remedy on all symptoms of the patient.

Sarika,
IT seems very obvious you have not had basic homeopathic training - what are your "researches" for?

Firstly, before ANY remedy can be chosen, its imperative to take a good history - so case taking plays a big part in a remedy choice.
SO before remedytaking - the right approach is "casetaking".

Secondly, the perceptive and analytical power of the homeopath is important (improves with experience) to decide on which are characteristic symtpoms to be used frm the history to prescribe a remedy.

Once there two steps are done well, then comes the remedy choice. This is not based on numerically covering all symptoms, but the remedy which covers the "picture" the best.
Once that is decided, one needs to then evaluate remedy response to the first prescription whether it has helped, adjust dosage requirements or change of remedy.

All this requires tremendous study of remedies and the application of the art and science. I don't think you're going to get that from picking out random symptoms out of the repertory simplistically!
So if you are a sincere student, start with learning the right processes and understandings of homeopathy before you go into "researches".

Then you will really experience the benefits of homeopathic healing.

regards,
doctorleela
