As in Homoeopathy remedy selection depends upon the “Totality of Symptoms” so I will ask many questions to you during this time period and you have to answer me for best prescription. Because Homoeopathic system of medication depends upon “Individualization” so I will consider even a very minute and even common symptom, might be I will help me out to select the best one. And all this include your “Reactions to environment, Family history, personal history, past history” and relevant to above mentioned data etc. so it is important that you should understand each thing that belongs to you as an individual.
