Ann  asked:
 
<<Someone  posted to the list a homeopathic mastitis treatment in the last
year or two  that was found to be helpful. The remedies used were phytolacca
decandra and  hapar sufphuris calcareum.

I got some for my daughter when she had  mastitis, and it was helpful. Now
she thinks she is getting it again and has  the remedy but not the
instructions.

Could I get the instructions from  someone? >>
 
 
Ann -- 
 
According to Toni Bark, MD who was  the first I knew of to recommend them:
 
Phytolacca -- 30 C -- 3 pellets under  the tongue
 
three hours later, Hepar Sulphur --  30C -- 3 pellets under the tongue
 
three hours later, Phytolacca (repeat  dosage)
 
three hours later, Hepar  Sulphur  (repeat dosage).
 
So if you started at noon, next dose  @ 3 pm, then 6 pm then 9 pm -- less 
than 12 hours. 
 
Hope that helps!
