This past week my husband and I had a late lunch and decided a simple snack would do for dinner. I remembered I had a nice brick of Brie in the fridge and a box of organic crackers. So I heated up the Brie in the oven (our absolute favorite way to eat it!) and we settled in for our evening treat while watching a show. Well… I overdid it. I mean way overdid the Brie and crackers. 🫠 Shortly after, my stomach got bloated and started hurting. I did what I usually do in these situations and took a dose of Lycopodium 200C. Nothing. I took 4–5 more doses over the next couple of hours… still nothing. Just that stubborn bloating and pain right in the middle of my stomach. This always worked in the past, but not this time.😫 I was getting ready for bed, wondering how on earth I was going to sleep with this pain, sitting up with my remedy kit next to me… and then one remedy popped into my mind. Honestly, I didn’t think it would help, but I took a dose anyway. Guess what? With that one single dose I fell asleep and slept through the night and woke up the next morning feeling great! 🙌 So… what remedy did I take? 🤔 put your answer below and I will post an update tomorrow with the remedy I chose! ....You all have such good guesses, well since the Lycopodium didn't act, I went straight for my Nux vomica 200C, I was surprised when I woke up feeling good! Why I chose nux, I had overdone it, over ate and that is my go to.

Updated: A couple weeks ago I met my mom for lunch… and she showed up covered in giant red welts on her arms and legs! 😩 Turns out she’d been working in the yard at dusk (prime mosquito hour 🦟) two days earlier. She was itching so bad it was driving her crazy and asked if I had anything that could help. Can you guess what remedy I chose??? 👀✨and the winner is: Apis 200C 👏 And guess what it only took 1 dose 👏and I asked her again later that evening and she said it didn't itch at all! Not even the next day ...tee hee I asked again. She said the swelling had gone down even though they were still red! Apis is a great remedy for red and swollen bites. I loved some of your answers! I had never heard of using Caladium for this, I am going to read up on that one in my Materia Medica.
