first try to develop the will and exercise restraint on smoking.
these remedies will help only if you have the will to quit.

Taking medicines on every single symptom is not homeopathy, it needs full case evaluation.If u are already taking homeo remedies u should wait for the results.

thank you dr tahira how ever i would like to add my connditions here on the same. it was a suggession from dr deoaslok for the above medicines.
i did post this on this forum earlier.
if you help me that would be fine. i am posting all my conditions here again in this thread for a quick reference
t started around sep 2003 when I had Both Malaria and Typhoid together. For that I was given very strong antibiotics and the diseases got cured. Immidiatey after 15 days it started on the scalp as hard scales and slowly my head was full of the same.
I had some allopathic treatment but no cure.
Then I had some homeopathic treatment in Vizag ( By this time it spread to almost all of my body) in 2004 about july. The remidy is not known but because of my transfer i could not continue.
It again surfaced in 2005 fully. I had some treatment at Vijayawada. I had some treatment and got some cure but not full. I am transferred again to Ambala. I continued my treatment from vijayawada. but the problem remained for 2 years.( the medicines are kept secret by the doctor)
Now i took treatment from Ambala. Here I remember the medicines. I was given Initially SULPHER1M for two fortnights. ( result no change in condition)
then the winter conditions worsened and the condition also. Now I was given PETROLEUM 1M( fortnightly) with LYCOPODIUM 30 (daily thrice) Now this treatment worked.
My badluck Now. The doctor was not available for treetment for 3 months. Meenwhile now again I am transferred and now at Bangalore.
Now for My conditionsof the disease which are asked and told in other posts.
1. Psoriasis on lmost all parts of body( major and never cured during the entire story is behing both arm foldings.)
2.also on Thighs,
3.Back ( cures first for all treetments).
4.Head ( Increses and decreases )
5.lower back and cockegial region and bottoms( cures and very late in all treetments)
6. Stomach and Inside Naval
7. Nails ( Both hands and Feet)
8. Hard and dry Feet and hands
NOW MY OTHER CONDITIONS
1. Acidity ( specially during nights)
2. Burning feet and hands while in bed.
3. Fissures (hemorrhoids) which regularly recur
4. I HAVE SOME BOILS ON MY BODY THROUGHOUT THE YEAR FOR MORE THAN 10 YEARS.( especially in armpits or genital areas around the anal area)
SOME QUESTIONS ASKED BY THE PREVIOUS HOMEOPATHS
Dreams : I regularly have a dream in which i travel in a train and enroute i get down for some reason like water etc,. meanwhile the train goes off and i loose my things and travel also. I keep thinking of alternatives to reach and i wake-up then
Sweets. : I like sweets of some nature and more with juicy ones.
Sleep : I sleep Very Less. and when I sleep Its really very sound. I must have a very thick Pillow to have a sound sleep.
Life Style. :
I am vegetarian (pure) not even egg
I take a lot of tea
I do smoke regularly
I drink very rarely
I have very good rememberance at numbers. But i Forget Faces eventhough i am closely associated with them in the past. But i remember people but cant match faces
This disease is heriditarty (may be) My both peternal uncle had it and also my metarnal uncle had it.
Any other questions I m willing to answer.

dear Bravip,
First,i feel sorry over ur wife and son's mishap,God bless them and give u patience.
Regarding ur question,Yes this is not homeopathy to take remedies on every single symptom.To understand homeopathy u should read relevant material.As far as ur case concerns,u need careful constitutional homeo treatment instead of given up smoking.Im pretty busy with my cases at clinic,my website and even some cases are already going on this forum.If u can wait i will return to ur case whenever i get time.Otherwise any of my colleagues can take ur case.
Best Wishes
Dr.Tahira

Here's another method to try and quit smoking:
I figured this is some info that can help some here on ABC Homeopathy break the habit. The marketing company I work for recently picked up a campaign for the Ad Council and the American Legacy Foundation called the 'Become an Ex' plan.
It's a program that will help you pick your smoking habit apart into little pieces that can be tackled individually. Once you begin you will start seeing how to quit smoking not as a huge war, but as a series of small , very winnable battles. Check out the site for more info.

I have had some success in helping a number of chronic smokers to QUIT smoking and you can read about how one was successful in doing so about 4 years ago on:

How I Quit Smoking Using Arnica
From Will88on 2006-07-0721 replies2797 viewsI have commented about this before, but it is buried in a thread with a title unrelated to smoking cessation.
In late October of 2005, I began using Arnica twice each day on the advice of Joe De Livera. I'd planned to attempt to stop smoking at some point, though that wasn't the only reason I started using Arnica. I began with Arnica 30X because I had some on hand, then switched to Arnica 30C in mid-November after receiving an order. On December 18 I stopped smoking and haven't smoked since.
I'd smoke for more than thirty years and made several attempts to quit, cold turkey, and with the aid of nicotine gum, patches and a combination homeopathic remedy sold in the US at various times. Among ten or more attempts, I'd quit from a few days to one month, but always started back.
But it's now been six and a-half months since I quit using Arnica 30C twice per day in the wet dose. Arnica cut the cravings and withdrawals to about one-third the severity of any previous attempt to quit. The only other thing I did was use (because I already had it on hand) a combination homeopathic remedy for about the first ten days until I used it up. But I don't think that had much to do with being able to quit since I'd used that remedy before.
By whatever mechanism Arnica enabled me to quit after more than theirty years of smoking. I'd used it for about six weeks before I stopped smoking. I don't know how long someone should use it before attempting to quit, but I'd think at least for a week or two, rather than attempting to quit the same day one started using Arnica 30C.
I've continued using Arnica twice per day since.

Advices to a patient who is dormant since 2008. :-)
Read the thread from the start,my dear friends, to see whether it is necessary to give our prescriptions at this stage. :-)

Sour Grapes ?
I am simply amazed at your attitude which is so obviously prompted by sheer jealousy.
Stop to consider how much good you miss doing by actively helping suffering humanity instead of wasting your time on shadowing me on every post and suffering the ignominy from patients on this forum who so obviously hate your guts.
You may like to read and ponder on the quotation below from Shakespeare's Othello.
O, beware, my lord, of jealousy!
It is the green-eyed monster which doth mock
The meat it feeds on.
I presume that you are aware who Shakespeare is.

I promised the moderator that I will ignore the rantings of our grand old man.
I intend to stick to that.
If our GOM can't do the vice versa it is upto the moderator to take action as he deems fit.

Glad to note that our PCH (pseudo classical homeopath) seems to have finally got the message.
If he shadows my posts as he invariably does and attacks me I retort with interest. This has happened to him on a number of occasions much to his chagrin but my efforts do not seem to penetrate his thick hide because he does not usually understand their meaning especially in the evenings when his 'brain boils over' after some stimulation.
All he has to do is to leave me and those patients to whom I prescribe my Joepathy in peace. I must admit that I do not enjoy attacking him as it is so wasteful of my time but I never refuse a challenge.
I am also pleased that he considers me as a Grand Old Man since I am old enough to be his father. Here in Sri Lanka and also in India there is an inbred respect shown to one's seniors and especially those who are Octogenarians.
Sadly he does not seem to recognize this unwritten law perhaps due to his upbringing by his own parents.
