Hi,
It is so wonderful of you to come to my assistance so quickly.
You are great!
I am progressing nicely. The lack of feeling and funny numbness
on my left side is 80% gone. After I took the first dose of
Aconite about in two minutes time I had a spell that my whole body
jumped. Now Bob says that that happened when I first passed out
my body jumped. It just felt like things were working in the right
way from then on. By three doses of aconite I knew there was improvement.
However as my body got feeling in it, I got more and more pain in
my neck. So it seems I was in muscle spasm as the medical doc had
said. Because of the severe pain in my neck I went to the chiropractor
a few hours ago. He was pleased at how easily my neck was put in
place. He feels that I had a stroke too and that is what is causing
the problem of lack of feeling and numbness in my left side. I took
a dose of arnica as well because of the great soreness' in my neck
and the fact that anything is too hard to sit on for me. I have
not taken any remedy now for a few hours. The apprehension, anxiety
and fear seem to be gone now.
I hope I didn't blow anything as I had wine with my dinner. The
first meal I have been able to eat since Tuesday. Well I feel relaxed
and tired now so shall get some sleep. I will check back with you
in a few hours for further instructions.
Very grateful, Carole

Hi Carole,
It's great to know that you have improved considrably. Once you
have taken a good sleep and if you still have any residual symptoms
left, continue with aconite infrequently for another day or two.
Do not repeat more than 4 times a day. Plussed doses.
..And Take Care,

Dear Doc B.
Thanks. I don't think I need anymore aconite. My left side feels
almost normal now. Really really wonderful! I have used aconite
for others in similar situation, but I didn't think it applied to
me. Well now I have to consider if it was the 'fear' that caused
the whole 'snowball' reaction to me as I know I became anxious before
I passed out. Very interesting this.
I went to chiro yesterday and it helped a lot at the time but it
seems that the adjustments may not have stayed in as I have bad
neck pain and shoulder pain again on the right side. This is not
new, I get it occasssionally. I had an episode two months ago of
this similar pain and two years ago previously. It pains all the
time and is worse on movement of my head up and down and to the
sides. I feel a little tight in my throat too. I am not able to
go or lye down and rest, I just keep working and doing things. To
sit sill it hurts too much anyway so I like to keep my mind active
doing things.
With apprieciation, Carole

It's good to hear that you are OK now. Take care and don't take
any medicine for the neck pain. It will subside in a day or two.
What you suffered was a mild panic attack.
Dr. B

Dear Dr. B.
It seems that the aconite has done even more than treat the panic
attack. I am generally very much better. I went to the medical Doc
today for a followup visit and he said I am in very good health.
He did BP, ecg, urinalysis, blood profile etc. He had all the results
today from the various tests and said he hopes he is as well and
looks as young as me when he gets to be my age.
I told him I had a panic attack and he said, but it was a gas exposure.
I explained that 100 other persons had the same exposure and did
not faint or so. He said it was good to know exactly what the
problem was and that he was impressed that I could look him right
in the eye and tell him the truth. My neck is healing and I have
settled down and am able to relax. Something I don't ever remember
being able to do before. My usual flushed red face has even become
fresh pink. Clouds have silver linings, but this one is gold.
Regards, Carole
