    Hi Dr. DeLivera,

    I have looked back on posts regarding infant reflux and I have been following your default protocol for a week now. My son is 8 weeks old. The Nat Phos x6 has helped somewhat. He still spits up with most feedings. He nurses every 1-1.5 hrs, so there are feedings where he does not have the Nat Phos x 6 as not to exceed 6 tabs a day. Sometimes He is visibly uncomfortable before he spits up and sometimes it does not bother him. He is extremely gassy as well. He still wakes up a couple times a day screaming because of the reflux. He constantly is arching his back even he is happy. It seems to be more comfortable to him. He goes through fussy spells pulling on and off the breast. The Nat Pho’s 6 has seemed to help reduce hiccups and number of spit ups. Night time seems worse, because he is not getting the tabs since it would exceed the dosage you recommend. Is there something else I can give him that will help him further? I am burping him immediately after feeds and keeping him upright for about 20 minutes after. I have eliminated common foods that can irritate him. I burp him mid feed as well.
    Thank you for your time

      Glad to note that you located my Website and followed my therapy for Baby GERD which your son presents . It is not usual to do so at his tender age and I would like to know if you have observed the following conditions which I have perfected throughout the past 25 years of treating hundreds of babies:

      Have you got the Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salt in tablet form? You will see the details on the label.
      Did you give him the Nat Phos 6x tablet divided into two, half before a feed and the balance immediately after
      Are you overfeeding him?

      Where do you live?

    Hi Dr DeLivera,
    Yes, the Nat Phos 6x is tablet form. It is Hylands brand. I am dividing the tablet in two, giving half before the feed and the remaining after. I am also taking two tablet after my 3 main meals of the the day. I think he could be overeating—he has put on weight very fast. I should note that I have a forceful milk letdown which is a problem for him as well and not helping his reflux symptoms.
    I am in California.
    Thank you

    • Joe says:

      The solution to your problem lies in your own hands.

      • Bridget says:

        Dr DeLivera,
        I was a little perplexed by your response. I assume it refers to overfeeding. Please correct me if I’m wrong. I have tried reducing his feedings, but the reflux persists. I’m still giving him nat pho 6x — half tab before a feed and the remaining after the feed. He still has wet burps, hiccups, occasional coughing/gagging. Fussiness- popping on and off the breast. Arching his back constantly. He spits up with almost every feed, sometimes multiple times. Sometimes it’s watery and sometimes it’s thick. His pediatrician wants to prescribe an antacid. Is there something else I can give him that will help? I just want to get him some relief. Thank you for your help.

        • Joe says:

          It is very likely that you are overfeeding your baby and it would be better to reduce your feeding quantity and the frequency to observe his response.

          Pediatricians will prescribe the dangerous PPI drugs as this is the line of least resistance and the results are almost immediate, but you will soon discover that the dosage prescribed will be increased as these drugs lose their efficacy in a few days and the doctor continues to increase the dosage to keep baby happy, usually with disastrous effects

          Suggest you follow my instructions in reducing the quantity you feed him and I shall instruct you how to proceed after observing his respons

    Dr Joe. I went to the endrconologist and the tests she gave me said I am hypoglycemic and must eat every 2 hours to keep blood sugar levels stable. She also found low thyroid and gave me Synthoid for that.she also wants me to take a 24 urine test to check metanephrine levels because of my complaint of heat intolerance. Even in cold weather. My adrenals are shot due to the stress I have been under all my life. If she had investigated my history this test would not be recommended in my opinon. I was an orphan my mother abandoned me and put me in the hands of a sociopathic pedophile who beat me and abused me sexually, emotionally and every way imaginable. I was under constant threat for my life and well being when I grew up I got a grant from government for my education and became a teacher so you see I was emotionally scared and the stress affected me tremendously of coursse my body had the results of this abandonment despair and neglect. So I can tell one what happened to my adrenal glands…the anxiety is understandable.

  4. Carol Murphy says:

    Hemoglobin A1C Mine was 5.9. Pre diabetic is 5.7-6.4 she said no medicine for this just diet….she wants me to take 24 hour urine test and I wrote you a long dissertation why I think this unnessaty ….I hope her diagnosis of low thyroid will result in more energy. Thank you Dr Joe for your kind help…..Carol Murphy

    Hello,

    I sought acid reflux advice from you back in October for my infant son. He is now almost 7 mos and in horrible teething pain. I’ve tried amber teething bracelet, Hyland’s teething tablets, frozen teething rings, homeopathic oils for his gums with no success outside of infants motrin. Any advice would be highly appreciated. Thank you

    • Joe says:

      You can give baby Chamomilla 30c in the Wet dose 3 times daily. This remedy will hopefully ease the pain.

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

      Order the remedy in the 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 at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

      Please DO NOT REPEAT your posts as I see that you have done so 3 times over.

      • Yona says:

        Thank you, sorry i posted in another forum on a previous month by accident so once I realized, I then reposted in march. Thanks for the remedy. I did try Camilia by Boiron and it has chamomilla 9c in it. That didn’t work. I will try your recommendation. Thank you.

      • Yona says:

        Update: chamomilla worked very well only when dose isn’t highly diluted (dissolved in 5 ml breastmilk) but he gets hiccups lasting sometimes 30 mins to one hour following the dosage. If i give him the diluted dosage from the 16 oz water bottle, he still is teething uncomfortably. Should i use 8oz water instead?

    Hello Dr. Joe. I would like to eliminate or shrink a small 8mm posterior fibroid. I am 36 years old, 5’2 145 pounds. I also have reoccuring discomfort when I ovulate and would that pain minimized. Thank you.

  7. soumik06 says:

    Dear Sir,
    Hope your well. Its been quite sometime I contacted you. My student is 15 years old. She is currently giving her board exams. She has a problem. She despite studying well underperforms in her exams. In an examination hall she doesnt read the question fully and starts answering before fully understanding the question. Also she unwillingly chooses a harder question instead of a easier one. She is very impatient in nature and gets excited easily.
    Is there any medicine which can be given to her? Her next exam is on 13th of March.

    Sir,

    Greetings!

    I’m writing this down on behalf of my friend.
    He has immense pain in his left abdomen along with pain on the sole of the foot, he got an ultrasound done and a 3mm calculus was found in left kidney at left midpole. (He has a family history of stone too)

    Therafter, the pain shifted to the right abdomen like a pricking pin and the foot pain continued, the pain was as if the foot arch is placed on a stone.

    7-8 days later, a CT scan was done, which didn’t report any calculus but calcified lymph nodes were present. His uric acid levels have been on the higher side, after medication they are a notch above the borderline now.

    I would request you to let me mail the reports to you for better diagnosis and your valuable treatment.

    Regards

    Sunil(patient)

    MRI Spine- 16th March
    Uric Acid – 7.74
    ESR- 14 (Reference range 0-14)
    C-Reactive Protein- 6.6 (Reference range 0-10)

    Current issues

    slight pain on the right side waist (this feels exterior)
    Left foot sole in pain ( As if there is a round stone in my shoe)
    Severe lower back pain since last two days

    Concern points
    In Ultra Sound Left kidney shows a calculus 3.0 mm at left midpole,whereas CT scan showed none later but pain still persists.
    CT Scan- Few subcentimetric mesenteric lymph nodes are seen; a small calcified lymph node is also seen in left side of abdomen
    MRI- Note is made of incidental CSF signal intensity of 2.4x 1.1×2.1 cm sized tarlov sacral cyst at S2 vertebral level on the right side

    Would request you to review and share your valuable treatment.

    Wishes for your well being always 🙏

    Regards

    • Joe says:

      It seems very likely that the root cause of all your problems is due to the Calculus which was identified in your left Kidney and I am confident that my default therapy will first dissolve it and later the Colocynthis will expel it in the manner that many others which were originally classified as being treatable by surgery were Cured.

      THERAPY KIDNEY STONES

      The remedy to help dissolve a Kidney Stone is:

      Berberis Vulgaris 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily to dissolve the stone. You will take this for some weeks or even months till you feel an increase in your pain level to an acute level which will indicate that the stone is dissolved and is ready to be passed down the Ureter.

      You will then take Colocynthis 200 in the Wet dose every hour to relax the Ureter to enable the stone to pass down into the bladder. Please note that you will take the Colocynthis 200 only when you feel the increase of your pain which will indicate that the stone is dissolved and is ready for passing down the Ureter into the Bladder.

      You will also take Arnica 30c twice daily in the Wet dose as this too helps the body to expel the stone.
      Leave half hour between remedies.

      Please visit the link below “How Joepathy expelled another Kidney Stone”

      http://www.joedelivera.com/?p=295

      You will drink at least 3-4 liters of water daily to help in dissolving the stone and flushing it down. The water will also prevent the formation of new stones.

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

      Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, 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 at least 6 times 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 enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

      Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

  10. Sunil Manhas says:

    Thank you, sir, for your revert and the therapy.

    However, the CT scan done a week later didn’t show any signs of the calculus, nor did the MRI. By any chance, is it possible that ultrasound detected it wrong or CT scan missed it Or the stone got released from the body in between the one week between ultrasound and CT scan+ MRI

    In the CT scan-Few subcentimetric mesenteric lymph nodes are seen; a small calcified lymph node is also seen in left side of abdomen
    MRI- Note is made of incidental CSF signal intensity of 2.4x 1.1×2.1 cm sized tarlov sacral cyst at S2 vertebral level on the right side

    Should I continue the same kidney therapy for the above concerns too.
    Incase you’d like to see, I can mail the reports for your perusal.

    Apologies for the long post

    Warm Regards

    Sunil

    • Joe says:

      I have to depend on your own diagnosis to prescribe my Joepathy but in this case you will NOT take the remedies prescribed except for the

      Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.

      We will observe your progress in a week and then decide on a course of action.

    We have an 8 week old son (4 week adjusted) with silent reflux. He is exclusively breastfed. I am dairy/soy free for 5 weeks. We have tried all natural remedies (feeding upright, holding upright after feedings, etc,). We tried Zantac, no luck. He has been on Nexium for over a week. It seemed to help a little at first, but the last few days have been terrible. He can’t sleep more than a short time and we must be holding him. He cannot be laid on his back or he screams. He screams after feedings at night. The nighttime hours are worse for him. I have purchased Nat Phos 6 and we will begin treatment today. Do we stop the Nexium? Or continue and wean over a period? Thanks!

    • Joe says:

      STOP THE NEXIUM AND ANY OTHER DRUGS

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      • robinreina says:

        Thank you. Can the tablets be placed in my baby’s mouth to dissolve? Or must they be dissolved in liquid first, then given? I’m just wondering if the treatment has to reach the stomach through swallowing the liquid. Thanks!

    • Joe says:

      I have already prescribed yesterday for your patient.

      Why don’t you read my prescription and save me unnecessary work in replying to you?

      You may not be aware that I am over 89 years in age and cannot waste my time on people like you.

  14. Chandu Patel says:

    Hi Sir Joe de livera I look again but can not see your reply, i am so sorry but steel can not find your reply. I respect you very much and i know your age, you are my like father figer, my father passe away at age 94 five years ago.

    • Joe says:

      I am prescribing for your friends Diabetes again:

      I shall copy below my default therapy aka “Joepathy” which many Diabetics are using today to control their BS levels.

      The remedy I have prescribed is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose which is taken thrice daily.

      Mag Phos 6x dose 2 tablets taken thrice daily have also helped to reduce BS levels and you can add this to your daily dosage.

      Please note that you will most likely notice a dip in your BS level within 24 hours of starting my therapy and you will then have to reduce your dosage of either Metformin or of Insulin as it must be maintained around 110.

      Type I patients have confirmed that they discovered their BS levels were reduced by about 20% within a day of their starting on this therapy.

      Type II patients will have to monitor their BS levels on a daily basis to ensure that their BS is stabilized at around 110 and they will reduce the dosage of the drugs that they are using daily to maintain this level. The Arnica 6c and the Mag Phos 6x are taken as prescribed.

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

      Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, 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 at least 6 times 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 enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

      Exercise is essential to help the Diabetic and unfortunately many are not in the habit of a daily routine of exercise which in many cases is the reason for the increase in Blood Sugar levels. You are advised to start with a brisk walk and you must ensure that you sweat it out to derive any benefit from the exercise.

      Cinnamon powder is also useful to reduce BS levels and a quarter teaspoonful can be taken brewed as a tea twice daily. Okra or Bandakka which grows in the tropics also helps to reduce BS levels. Okra is used by cutting up a tender pod and inserting it into a glass of water which is left overnight and the water is drunk on an empty stomach the morning after.
      Turmeric has also been discovered to help reduce BS levels and can be used in a similar manner to the Cinnamon.

      Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

      • Joe says:

        Your patient seems to be beyond my ability to help as he presents 454 mg/dl, I presume random.

        You are advised to consult a doctor as my therapy will not help him.

    Hello Dr. DeLivera,

    I have searched your very extensive, informational website prior to writing this note to make sure you hadn’t already written about this subject, but I did not find anything. I am so glad that you do not practice classical homeopathy, as I became a fan of the Banerji protocols about a year ago and their approach to homeopathy. My question is in regards to kidney failure. I’ve been in the hospital twice now and diagnosed with stage 5 kidney failure. I was on dialysis both times when in the hospital, but only went to the clinic for 4 weeks after the first hospitalization, then ended up back in the hospital about 8 months later, but did not go to the dialysis clinic at all that time after being released from the hospital- I knew that wasn’t the answer to getting well (which they don’t encourage at all, the getting *well* part). Both incidents landed me in the hospital after/during times where I had caught either some kind of cold or flu bug, and things just went downhill after that. Through diet, over the past 4 months, I have mainly used a raw diet plus herbs that help support the lymphatic system, allow the kidneys to rest, heal, and regenerate, help the colon function properly, and to help my adrenals heal and for my BP to come down. I know my health has improved, but not sure about my BP as I haven’t taken it for several months now.

    I am writing to ask you for your opinion about using Arnica in the wet form daily to help lower my blood pressure. I am not certain if it would be a good idea to lower the BP in that manner, or to just continue the way I am and wait on the adrenals to regain their strength and ability to lower that BP on their own. The last time I took my BP was apx 3 months ago and it was 182/72. My understanding is the top number represents the adrenal health and the bottom number represents the kidney health.

    I have been a firm believer in homeopathic remedies for many years now, and use them often for myself and my family (with great success!), but sometimes there are just things I cannot figure out and/or even feel comfortable trying. This is sure one of those times!

    I don’t know if I should provide you more information or not, but will say that I am 65 now, on no RX drugs of any kind, there is the belief that my kidney failure may have been hastened by use of heavy antibiotic use years ago before I knew better than to listen to the medical doctors. Not only did those antibiotics NOT help me get better from the illnesses they were prescribed for, but that is also when my health started becoming a very large problem, and that is when I also stopped looking to the medical community for any answers whatsoever.

    Okay, that’s probably more information that you wanted or needed, lol! I want to thank you ahead of time for reading through this email, and I will appreciate any information that you feel you can provide. Thank you!

    Vicki

    • Joe says:

      I saw your post coming in and as it is late here in Colombo shall reply it tomorrow.

      In the meanwhile can you give me your readings on any Blood tests you have made in the recent past to help me in diagnosing your condition.

      Your height and weight is also needed to help in diagnosing.
      Do you have any daily exercise routine and even walking will do.
      How much do you drink daily in liquids?

      Glad you appreciate my therapy which is now accepted as “Joepathy” and it is only recently that I discovered that the Banerji family also use my protocols in prescribing, unknown to me. I too have used the classical protocols and discovered that they do not work to cure the patient and was agreeably surprised to discover that my Joepathy was the answer.

      You may not be aware that I am over 89 years in age and do not take any drugs although I was compelled to take Levoflox to treat the bacteria that was the cause of my temperature of 103.3F which was originally treated with Augmentin 650 with severe after effects which Levoflox undid the damage and annihilated the bacteria that were causing the temperature in a few days.

  17. Carol Murphy says:

    Dr Joe. Appreciate your help in suggesting Arnica 30 wet dose 2x day but It has quit working for me for insomnia should I increase the dose. I was getting such good rests and some help with anxiety. Thanks so much for any suggestions..

    • Joe says:

      Did you follow my instructions to shake the bottle 6 times hard before every dose?
      This will ensure that the potency of the liquid remedy is increased every so slightly to make the new dose to be more powerful than the last.
