I saw another german medicine of Dr.Reckeweg's Vita-C 15 (Nerve Tonic- Anxiety, Tension)

I Request you to pls guide me. Should I take any of these medicines along with Silicea 10M. Pls do not mistake me, It is just that I want to get cured fast and it is the only reason I am asking for further suggestion. If you feel Silicea 10M alone will do, I will stick with it and I will continue only Silicea 10M.

Thanks.
