Omicron B5 in elderly patient

A 66 year old man with IHD presented on day 3 of Covid Omicron B5 with a chesty cough, high fever and oxygen sat of 95%on air. I stopped his aspirin and continued plavix.

Started on low dose antiviral, klotho, hepar sul and kali bichro as sputum was green yellow.

After 5 days most of the sputum cleared up and he has a cough with minimum white sputum so I added antifibrosis combo.

By day 8 he began having sharp chest pain –angina like. The ECG was normal but the BP was low at 100/60 (his normal BP is 140/80). We had tried anti IL 6 with Nat mur but pain still carried on; so I decided to stop it and add imusil and double the dose of coq10. Within 24 hours there was no more chest pain and oxygen back to 99%; no exertional dyspnoea and cough completely resolved.

Omicron in a toddler

3 and a half year old with previous history of kawasaki disease with underlying few aortic aneurysms on low dose aspirin frm Cardio. He got infected with the new Omicron B5 strain.

On day 1 heart rate was 160 per min and fever 39. Post few doses of belladonna 1M the fever settled and heart rate returned to less thn 120 over 2 days.

On day 2 he woke up screaming and crying with abdomen pain and vomiting. He was already on antivirals 2 hourly and klotho prophylaxis. Assuming slight acidosis due to the aspirin I asked the mum to give him ORS and ipecac. Within an hour his tummy pain was better and was given cal phos as well later and by mid day he told the mum he feels back to normal.

Subsequently developed a bad chesty cough with white sputum. Low dose H2O2 and Ruta was given along with flumucil as he didn’t know how to expectorate. By Day 6 his oxygen is back to 99 % on air and he has minimum sputum.

Case of recurrent fever

A 30 yr old had recurrent fevers at night with body pain. Covid test came negative twice, CBC showed a slight drop in WBC count. Fever profile – TB, dengue, typhoid, malaria came negative.

Took history – Patient said he has a large fungal lesion on his shin since 8 yrs.

Gave nat mur and anti IL 6 first day; he felt the fever reduce and body pains improve.

The second day sent him curzinc, tellurium, berberis in ticture. After a dose all fever went and so did the pains. The lesion is also healing.

Note : IL 6 is required to kill fungus, it was going high triggering fevers and joint pains, tellurium was chosen because his stools were very foul smelling.

Berberis was added because tellurium does’nt work particularly well on candida species without berberine

Case of recurrent malaria

Patient had recurrent malaria; 3 times within 6 months. She is very old with a history of heart failure.
She was given lumerax by her doctor. She got an allergic reaction and developed breathlessness, had to be put on emergency oxygen.

Her WBC count was elevated, platelet count was lowering down and she had left flank pain with vomiting.

• Left flank pain with vomiting with low platelets : it was most likely splenomegaly. Medication for this is ceonathus americana.

• For High WBC – nat sul, Allergic reaction – apis.

• For Malaria vivax – chenopodium antihelminthica, artemesia annua, sulphur was given in 30c.4_4_4

After a day all left flank pain had gone, she was off the oxygen and her apetite restored.

After a week without any allopathic drugs whatsoever she has recovered. The smear shows no parasites.

We can treat difficult to treat malaria which would have ideally required lumerax with primaquine or artesunate with primaquine with just the homeopathics. The recovery was immediate, actually within 2 hours her vomiting and fever went away completely.

Case of viral fever

A small child aged 9 came with 103 fever, headache, constant dry body, severe body pains, unable to sleep.

For fever – Gave eupat perf 1m.4_4_4, low dose anti viral and emetine.

The cough was worse on both sitting and lying down position but more worse on sitting up. No thirst changes were there. No improvement on hot water, no throat pains except for difficulty in swallowing due to cough causing injury to larynx. Gave drosera 200c.4_4_4 for this.

The body pains were’nt better with heat and there was lack of sleep. Gave gelsemium 200c.4_4_4

Child responded well; the next day all fevere, cough, pains subsided.
She had weakness left though, could not walk as the legs gave out. Jelly legs required conium. Gave a single dose on conium. On day 2 all weakness has gone and she is running around.

Note : It is imperative to listen to the patient modalities carefully to understand what meds are required.

For this covid strain always use antiviral with emetine.
