Sepia

Homeopathy Sepia in chronic stress

A) one 52 year old lady with chronic stress and fibromyalgia; on letrazole for breast CA and in remission post chemo. She complained of sensitivity to cold wind and generalized aches and pains. I gave her homeopathy Sepia 200c 4 drops daily and in 3 days she is all better came in smiling. Told her to continue it.

B) The other case is of a guy with hearing loss. After homeopathy nux vomica and deworming course his hearing improved a lot. But he still heard echoes in the ears. This guy is a recent divorcee with chronic stress frm work related issues as well.

So I tried homeopathy Sepia 200c on him 4 drops BD and after a week there is more improvement in his hearing and he isn’t tired all the time anymore. He went outstation yesterday and yet when he returned he had energy to go for a walk without fatigue.

Rationale : sepia is the ultimate serotonin regulator and hence helped these 2 patients with chronic stresss.

Throat infection

Throat infection with panic

I did a case of homeopathy Ignatia, following is the message I received from patient.

“I am so much better dr. All symptoms gone so fast. It is unbelievable how a throat infection got better in 2 days. Yesterday i was like half dead n today i m so energetic. You are such a gift to this planet🌹🙏”

So she had throat pain, fever, loss of apetite and complained of palpitations while lying down. She was scared it was COVID and was in full panic state. I gave her homeopathy Ignatia and antiviral covid combo. After an hour her palpitations stopped and by next day her throat infection also resolved.

Parosmia post COVID

Case of parosmia in a teenage girl post COVID recovery

A young girl got symptoms of sewage like smell and taste while eating food. If she was having the food she liked (eg burgers) the smell would not come but on eating home made food the smell was so strong that she stopped eating. She would also feel feverish after eating and would then go to sleep. This was causing weight loss and difficulty in studying for exams since she was sleeping a lot.

These symptoms were there since a month. She had recovered from COVID about 3 months ago and hence the diagnosis was COVID delayed parosmia. Neurological examinations showed no issues. I gave her homeopathy nat mur with pyrogenicum for a few days but there was no change.

The sewage smell is usually due to olfactory lobe epilepsy triggered when one has to smell food. The normal medical treatment is high doses of gabapentin. She did’nt want to take gabapentin. Gabapentin modulates GABA and opioid receptors. The homeopathic which does this via increasing endorphins and enkephalins is staphysagria.

Yesterday she was given homeopathy staphysagria 1m. Today morning all complaints were gone. She has no foul smell, appetite is back, feverish feeling and excessive sleepiness has gone.

There is just one published case of delayed parosmia post COVID till date where the patient had these symptoms of sewage like smell on food. However there are many cases like this with ongoing issues of weightloss and debility.

Update 

The patient was well from staphysagria and then developed the foul smell again. On questioning about the trigger she said she had eaten some spicy food after which it restarted. This was a clear case of thuja. Homeopathy Thuja 1m was given for a week which resolved her issue.

OCD & anxiety

A case of OCD with anxiety during COVID-19 Pandemic

A gentleman operates a family food catering business. A responsible eldest son in the family.
During this pandemic, he had withdrawn himself, started getting angry easily and ask wife and son to go back to her family house. They lived together in his parents house which operates food catering business. He was very scared that his parents, siblings, wife and son might contract COVID19. His behaviour changed, he bacame OCD with excessive hand washing, observed others and demanded everybody in the house to wash their hands. He started being verbally abusive towards workers, washed all clothes over and over again. He was always paranoid about COVID and everyones hygiene around him.

After consulted Dr Tariq we put him on homeopathy syphilinum 1M 2-3 drops given as a single dose. Mom told that he had positive behaviour 1 hour after taking  drops. Became friendly towards family, having meal together back to normal. Mom was so happy. Siblings are happy and surprised.

Long COVID

Long COVID case

An elderly patient with severe COVID and on ventilator support had completely recovered with treatment of antiviral COVID combo and low dose VIP, Trichostatin A. But post COVID she developed myalgia and breathlessness. It improved with the antifibrosis combo but improvement stalled after a month. Patient would get breathless and SpO2 would drop to 80 after a short walk (previously she could not sit up also without SpO2 dropping).

On taking further history she complained of acidity, she would avoid adding spice to any food.

Gave her homeopathy thuja which fixed acidity and improved breathing further. SpO2 now increased to 85 after walking. But this improvement also stalled again after 2 weeks. We now added low dose klotho; and after a few days of klotho the SpO2 increased to 92 after walking. Even after the 6 min walk test the SpO2 stayed above 92.

Note : Klotho helps against lung oxidative damage. Even with glutathione and NOX 2 blockade which she was on the required antioxidant effect had not reached.

Post COVID paranoia

Quite interesting case of post COVID Paranoia 

A 75 yr old doctor himself recovered from COVID. All his tests were negative but now he suffered delirium with paranoid thinking. He was thinking that people are going to kill him. He would call up random people and say sorry to them and then said ‘I want to tell you sorry before I die’. His paranoid thoughts started at night. He also has lung fibrosis post COVID, has high IL 6 with CEA increased to125.

So I give him my anti fibrosis combo of low does HGF+low dose Trichostatin A+H2SO3+homeopathy berrylium met.  Added Anti il 6 to fix the liver and homeopathy Aconite.

The paranoid thoughts stopped in a few minutes. By next day morning he was breathing better and seemed normal. He is now walking around like nothing was happening to him since over a month. The overnight recovery is truly phenomenol.

The aconite was the clincher in the case.

Anxiety in COVID

Anxiety in COVID

Had a 75 yr old patient with COVID, her SpO2 was around 90-92. I gave her homeopathy senega, pulsatilla (thirstless with cough), Ipecac (vomiting).

Next day SpO2 went up to 95. Vomiting stopped, cough improved and was drinking fluid but had no appetite.

Gave a 4 drops of ignatia and within 15 minutes she ate a proper meal after almost 4 days.

She had been put on almost 12 different meds for COVID which i stopped. Perhaps the 12 meds and anxiety together caused her the zero apetite.

Ignatia is truly a boon for COVID anxiety!

Phosphorus in COVID

Homeopathy Phosphorus in COVID

A husband and wife with mild covid were prescribed steroids very high doses with azithromycin. The steroids were abruptly withdrawan by their doctor on the 4th day after which their SpO2 fell rapidly. When they contacted me the SpO2 was 85 and falling by the hour.

The wife has severe vomiting and unable to eat anything, the husband was having an irritating cough.

Started both of them the antiviral COVID combo, low dose VIP and Trichostatin A along with homeopathy senega. For the wife’s vomiting and lack of apetite hoeopathy ignatia and ipecaca were given.

The wifes’ vommitting stopped and the next day their SpO2 was hovering around 89 but stopped improving after that. In the evening homeopathy phosphorous was also added on. Within 10 minutes their SpO2 crossed 94 for both of them. By Day 4 their SpO2 hovereed around 98 and had recovered from all the symptoms.

Note : Steroids stop the recirculation of lymphocytes. Homeopathy phosphorous is a sphinosine 1 regulator which helps lymphocytes leve the lymphn nodes to enter areas of inflammation. Use homeopathy phosphorus in any COVID patient who has been immunosuppressed early on with steroids.

Grief

Grief

I had a lady came in who is 67yrs old with hypertension and was on amlodipine 5mg daily. Her resting BP was 130/76 mm Hg. She often complained of chest discomfort with feeling of getting a heart attack. This was on and off; she had done many ECGs over a year and visited many doctors with no resolution. Her sleep was alright. After probing further she talked about her late husband – he had a sudden cardiac death and she was overseas at that time; it was like there was no closure and the stress built up. She lives with her inlaws and has constant stress.

Seeing the grief I decided to try Ignatia 1M 2 drops daily for 3 days.

On the 4th day she came back saying the chest pain had gone, she had a good cry and released her burden of regret and sadness. Her BP was better 120/80 mm Hg. She was calm and was very thankful.
