Hello!

Was there the LM potencies (50.000 C) or LM scale? It is very important for definition further tactice.

Hello,
I am not sure. I purchased a 1LM unit dose from the manufacturer. I assume this was potency. Thank you.

Hello!
If you have the same symptoms now, that situation is serious, because you have medicine illness with time modality. Deterioration is going from three levels: mental, functional and organically.
It needs antidote very quickly.
If it is LM SCALE, that you could take Nux Vom 1000C only 1 dose. But if it is LM POTENCY, that situation is more difficult. You need only true constitution in 1000C 1 dose.
But I am not sure that it can be LM potency, because real LM potency is very expensive and to prepare this potency takes a lot of time and I am sure that everybody can not buy that potency without special registration, because this potency is very active and dangerous.
Hanemanh developed the method of proving and after 30C proving needs only 1 dose. Besides in proving we can use only C potency, because only C potency has the first and the second (regulative) functioning and we never use LM scale, because they have only the first functioning and can be very dangerous for tester.
Good luck

Larysa,
Do you mean to say I can antidote taking a 1M dose? Isn't that quite risky? Thanks for your insights.

Hello!

No! We can use antidote only in hundred scale, it means scale C, and never other scale, because only remedies of hundred scale has regulative functioning the second functioning. It is very important. Please read again my privies massage.
good luck!

If none of the other suggestions work, you can take a very low potency of Nux (like 6x or 6c). You will still have to put up with the symptoms for a couple more days, but I've heard that method sometimes works (for the low potency to replace the higher one). I haven't tried it myself, though.

Dani,
Thank you for the advice. I've tried that actually in the past. It worked for a few days. Then, however, symptoms reappeared. I'm waiting to try one of the antidotes - specifically Op - in the hopes that it will clear it up.

Op doesn't seem to be the best choice; you might like those symptoms even less! Boericke lists these as antidotes to Nux V: Coff; Ignat; Cocc.
Personally, I'd take (low) Ignatia (Coffea might cause insomnia and Cocculus might cause dizziness), unless the Nux symptoms aren't too much to put up with, in which case I'd just wait it out.
Best wishes,
Dani

dani,
I've tried coffea and ignatia - both at 30c. Maybe it was too high a potency? With coffea I developed diaorreah. With ignatia I didn't really see any difference. Maybe they were too high of a potency? Someone has suggested op due to the similiarities in rectum contraction, ineffectual urging etc. Thanks for your help.

Diarrhea isn't necessarily a bad thing; it's a natural way for the body to rid itself of undesirable things. But, of course, if it goes on too long it can be very serious due to the fluid loss and non-absorption of vitamins and minerals. How long did the diarrhea go on? How long did you wait after taking the coffea and the ignatia? A 30c should have been an acceptable potency.

I assume you aren't seeing a professional homeopath? The best thing would be for a professional to take your entire case and prescribe based on those symptoms, as best they can be discerned apart from what you think are the nux proving symptoms. I assume you took nux for some problems usually associated with it, which means, you might have originally needed a remedy that is similar to it. If that remedy is given, it would probably resolve the nux issues. From your description I understand why op. was suggested, and it could possibly be the originally correct remedy (do you tend to get sleepy when you cease activity, and sit down in a chair?), but it's very difficult to tell without taking the entire case.

I don't know how severe your proving symptoms are, but from one of your earlier posts it sounded like you only get them every 3 weeks or so. If that's tolerable, I would say again that it might be better to wait it out than to add more remedies to the mix. But if you find them intolerable, you have my blessing to give Op 30c a whirl. Incidentally, for me, a 30c will last about 6 weeks, a 6c for about 4 days in non-acutes. With a 200c I'm looking at 4-6 months, but I am admittedly outrageously sensitive!
