    This remedy fits so many complaints I have that it’s mind-boggling! It would take too long to explain my health situation, experiences and symptoms I have had. I was feeling terrible (again) this morning and had been for the last couple of days. I depend on my ‘muse’ or ‘guides’ to direct me to the right remedy since my memory is so horrible. I felt a pull to Alumina 30C so took a dose. In less than 15 minutes I felt better! ONE DOSE!

    I’ve been using homeopathics for more than 20 years and am completely convinced that I would not have lived to be as old as I am had I not done so!! There are no homeopaths in my area so from the beginning, since I felt I had nothing to lose, I took it on myself to learn as much as I could. I’ve used homeopathics for multipl ailments; all with great success!

    I was diagnosed 20+ years ago with Type 2 Diabetes and Hashimoto’s disease of the thyroid. I feel sure I could reverse both if I had the aid of a reputable homeopathic physician. Alas, there are none in my area and, at this point, I couldn’t afford one even if there were.

    Just want you to know that I have the greatest respect for this field of medicine!! I wish more people understood how thoroughly efficacious it is!

  15. RE: “Write to Dr. Sharma and get a reply on how homeopathy can help you in treating your disease condition.”

    I appreciate the excellent articles but I’ve never seen a response to any of the questions. It’s sad to lead on so many people in medical need. The fact is you really can’t give specific advice without taking a full case. If they contact you via chat I’m sure your response is to set up a consultation. Please just tell them this upfront like other homeopathic websites do.

    This comment might get removed, but what the heck, maybe someone will at least read it at your clinic and reevaluate your business ethics.

    Sending love and peace. 💕

    Hello. My dad is 71, has had a global amnesia episode, a brain hemorage, brain bleeds and experiences brain fog, trouble with memory, ability to think and find words/communicate what he’s thinking at times etc He has been taking b2 and coQ10 with some relief, but has recently experienced less benefits from them. I’m trying to find natural ways to help him, but has been advised against blood thinners because of his brain bleeds. My list after ruling those out includes; b6, b12, folate, bacopa monnieri, alumina and lemon balm. Anit-stress would be beneficial too. I would greatly appreciate any advice or recommendations. Thanks in advance for your time and consideration.
    Concerned daughter.
