Great article thanks. I'd love to try this on a regular basis; one day maybe.
This confirms my own anecdotal evidence. Lots of pain for the last decade, but the one time I got stung by a bee (foot, sorry bee), the pain in that area disappeared for a few hours. And that was a BIG thing at the time. Still would be.
I'm going to try and find someone locally who can do this.
As this had become a chronic case, I think I would have used a 1M potency. 200C is known as "The Holy Handgrenade" as it often provokes an over-reaction.
Posology considerations in this case - as all of my cases - are decided upon in conjunction with posological theory as outlined in the Levels of Health by George Vithoulkas (citation 3).
A potency of 200c is not known as 'the 'holy hand grenade' in established homeopathic posologic theory which includes reactions to the remedy.
I highly recommend becoming familiar with Levels of Health by George Vithoulkas as it is a comprehensive theory which clarifies a lot of unfortunate potency myths and misunderstandings in homeopathy!
"The true physician will prescribe his well selected homoeopathic medicine in a dose so small as to be just sufficient to overcome and extinguish the disease, and this dose must be so small as not to produce any ill effects to the patient."
The above is in reference to the use of the infinitesimal dose.
If you are a prescriber, I urge you to become familiar with the comprehensive posological theory Levels of Health (1978,2010) by George Vithoulkas
which will broaden your understanding of reactions to the remedy and what they indicate about the health of the person, alongside providing guidance on where to begin with potency - all of which should have been taught in college!
