Hyper Acidity/Fogginess in Head

It is likely that you are suffering from GERD (Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease) due to the Gastric Juice in your stomach refluxing up to your throat thereby causing the symptoms that you suffer from today.

Your remedies are as follows:

Nat Phos 6x dose 3-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 2 meals
Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.

You can expect relief from your ailment hopefully within 24 hours.
Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry.
No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.

The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

Order the remedy in a 5ml Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.

Type GERD into the Search box on every page to read the many cases that I have treated on the ABC.


Please visit the links below which record the cases of other patients whom I have treated for GERD.

STOP using all other drugs and report progress in a week.

Glad to note that you have discovered relief within 24 hours after using my therapy as predicted by me in my last post to you:

'You can expect relief from your ailment hopefully within 24 hours. '

You have not indicated the number of tablets you have taken of Nat Phos 6x and you are cleared to take up to a maximum of 6 tablets immediately after a meal, depending on the severity of your GERD which I note you have been treating with Gaviscon and Protium which you must know is a PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drug details of which you are invited to investigate by Googling 'Danger of using PPI Drugs'.

You will observe if you read this post in time before you go to bed tonight that if you take the Nat Phos immediately after dinner, you will have no need to use the drugs that you have been taking, presumably for the last 6 years with the multiple side effects you listed in your first post. I hope that you realize that they would have shortened your natural life span by many years if you had continue to use them as you were doing up to 2 days ago.

I am simply amazed that modern medicine does not have the equivalent of these two remedies, Nat Phos to neutralize the acid in your stomach from which you have suffered so very unnecessarily and Arnica which is the healer of your body and specifically your Esophagus which is now eroded by your refluxed gastric juices. Arnica should hopefully complete its action within a month when your Esophagus will be as good as new.

Please note however that you will have to take Arnica 30 in the Wet dose nightly for life. You may not require Nat Phos after you are healed but it is just as well to have a small stock near at hand at home or in office to be used at the first sign of any gastric imbalance.

I note that you are scheduled for a dental implant and it is a coincidence that I too have one scheduled for the 21st Sunday as my teeth have been mauled by a succession of dentists who delighted in excavating the inner dental tissue at the slightest sign of dental decay which they could have fixed with the least amount of drilling. It is the air operated high speed drills that are the bane of patients as we have no means of controlling this excavation done internally by the dentists who use their drills to virtually excavate the inner dental tissue which in my case must be soft as at the end of the drilling which I always be done without an anesthetic, the whole tooth is empty and is later filled with plastic cement. The more drilling the merrier for these dentists and it is when the patient reaches an advanced age of 82, in my case that my long suffering teeth just crack up and I do not have any alternative but to use a set of false teeth or like you to use an implant, which unfortunately involves some more surgery and of course expense.

I have had 4 implants so far for my molars and you may like to know that I did not use any antibiotic although this was prescribed by the dental surgeon who is a Professor of Maxillofacial Surgery (rtd) in the University in Kandy who visits Colombo monthly. I used Arnica 30c exclusively both prior to and post surgery. I took a Wet dose every 2 hours prior to and post surgery and was completely without any pain throughout the 2 surgical episodes I had to endure.

In your case I will not advise you against taking the Antibiotic like Ampicillin but do not take anything more potent like Augmentin which my surgeon prescribed as this is obviously overkill. Take the Arnica 30c as I have done and you will discover that you will not have any post surgical pain which is unbelievable but true. No analgesic drug will be required. You can safely take the Homeopathic remedies while taking the Antibiotic as the 2 remedies I have prescribed for your GERD will continue to act in spite of the AB.

Please record your experience with your post surgical pain a day after your surgery.

Incidentally where do you live and if I may ask, what is the cost of a dental Implant in your country?

I re-read the last paragraph of your first post and can visualize and sympathize with the depth of your suffering from GERD for over 6 years which my therapy helped you to overcome in just 24 hours.

I copy it below:

'I many times think of committing suicide when my head becomes foggy, and these days it is becoming foggy 3 to 5 hours a day. Please help and God will bless you.'

Is the constipation an old problem or a new one?

Old symptoms can aggravate as parte of a curative process, or they can appear naturally (as they would whether you were on homoeopathy or not).

An aggravation is only important if it is followed by relief of the symptom - do you need to take fibre every day to be regular?

To Hanifdojki

I am glad to note that your GERD has been helped by the Nat Phos and I hope that you will take it for some more time with the Arnica 30 in the Wet dose which hopefully will also help your other problems. You can increase the dosage of NP up to 6 tablets as it will help with your constipation. Also drink up to 4 liters of water daily and do a regular exercise routine like brisk walking.

You can take the AB as directed by your dentist but you will not stop the remedies that have helped you in under 5 days. You are advised to double the frequency of the Arnica after the implant as this will help your pain and also ensure quicker healing.

Please report progress.

Dear Joe, Did you have a nice dentist appointment?

Many many prayers for your excellent health.

If you notice any bitter taste on your tongue, this will indicate that you are overdosing when you will reduce the dosage and the frequency. When your constipation is eased, you can reduce the dosage down to 2 or 3 after 2 meals.

You can take one capful / teaspoonful of the Arnica 30c in the Wet dose every 2 hours after the implant surgery. This will deaden the pain like in my case I used only Arnica after my surgery on Sunday.

It was my tooth that was causing some concern as my surgeon had to extract the roots of the old tooth and in doing so he injured my gum which seemed to be OK till dinner time when it started to bleed uncontrollably. He instructed me to use an ice cube but this did not help. I had to put pressure for over an hour by pressing my cheek over the gum with my thumbs and this stopped the bleeding which I noticed caused black stools this morning. I estimated that I had bled at least 500ml on Sunday night. I was not feeling too good the past 2 days after the blood loss and stayed at home during this time.

I will get my implant in 3 months.

'Did you have a nice dentist appointment? '

I do wish they are enjoyable ! However there is no alternative other than using a set of false teeth which I refuse to even consider using, all of which is the price of advanced age. Teeth are only good for about 75 years after which they have to be replaced. I am fortunate that my incisors are as good as new while my gums are, according to my surgeon, equal to a 40 year old's. Thanks to the Arnica I have taken nightly.

The implant therapy is by no means enjoyable as the surgical procedure involves implanting a special 15mm Titanium screw pin into the bone and after it settles down in about a month a metal device with white enamel to imitate a tooth is stuck on the head. This procedure is done 3 months after the broken tooth with the roots are extracted which is what was done last Sunday with rather dramatic after effects.

I used Arnica before the procedure and immediately after it but I was not counting on the bleeding starting about 4 hours after which it did not seem to abate till I used pressure on the nicked gum for over an hour which stopped the bleeding. There was absolutely no pain after the Novocain wore off.

For the record I used 4 tablets Ferr Phos 6x every 3 hours to help replace the blood I lost which I feel is at least 300ml judging by the black stools I passed both yesterday and even today which were lighter in colour.

Thank you for inquiring about my progress.

Since your GERD has not responded to Nat Phos alone, you can add
Robina Pseudacacia 3c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.

You will continue with the Nat Phos and Arnica but you can increase the dosage of these remedies to thrice daily.

The 30c cannot equate the 3c which is the potency prescribed for excess acidity but you may use it and report your response.

Can you get Robina P in the pellets ?

Robina P 3x cannot help you so let us stay with the 30c in the Wet dose which you already have with you. Take the Wet dose ASAP with the Nat Phos 6x as instructed and report your response in 3 days.

Your Cholesterol level is not really elevated and you must not take Statins which have in the recent past been discovered to do more harm that good. Google 'The danger of Statins' to read all about it.

Your Cholesterol level is not really high at 240 as it is considered normal at between 140-215 mg/100ml of serum.
You have not indicated your Triglyceride level which should ideally be between 35-165 mg/dl.

Both levels will be helped by Arnica 30c taken in the Wet dose twice daily as instructed.

You should observe your Cholesterol and Triglyceride levels reducing steadily in the next few weeks and it is up to you to use my therapy or revert back to the drugs you were using which you must know will cause you harm eventually.

Stay with the Nat Phos 6x for your Hyperacidity and also take the Arnica as prescribed for more positive results than you have had with drugs so far.

Report your progress weekly.
