EXPERIENCING THE COVID-19 NOSODE

EXPERIENCING THE COVID-19 NOSODE

In March a colleague told me that she had just found out about a Homeopathic pharmacy that had acquired the discharge from a COVID-19 patient and had produced the Homeopathic remedy from it. I ordered a 1M and a 10M potency. The order was not an easy transaction. The only contact was by email. I could not find the remedy listed and had to contact them for the specifics.  When the remedy actually arrived a month later I saw that the name was not what I had ordered, but Novus-CV.

After emailing back and forth again, more than a week later and some more investigation, I understood that the company had changed the name.  All understandable, as we know that there are forces that would like to dispense with us into the trash bin of history and this company was mitigating its exposure. However, I had never ordered from them before and was a bit hesitant to try this remedy on patients, not really knowing if I could trust, or understand, the scope of the medicine.

Being a habitual remedy popper and experimenting remedy-aholic I decided to see what the remedy was capable of firsthand.  I asked Hannah if she would like to join me in the experiment.  She did not hesitate and so we proceeded. She sat in her car, in my driveway, and I sat in the passenger side of my car, so that we were social distancing.  We took the two potencies together and started to write our symptoms down as they appeared.  After a few hours we bid each other good night and continued to document our proving symptoms separately.

I am not the ideal prover.  I have conditions for which I am very susceptible

to the virus. Having said that, I am very sensitive and the symptoms were very clear and perceptible.  In the second day of the proving I was worried about whether the symptoms I was experiencing were really a flu or just those of the proving.  I decided to end the proving, just in case. Hannah continued.

Here is our proving experiment.
