Covid for over a month

Covid case of a patient suffering since over a month.

She had severe cough with stuck up mucus, evening rise of fever every day.
Last week developed angioedema of face which was non responsive to antiallergics.

Gave apis which sovled the angioedema in a day.

The next day started on hepar+phytolacca with ferrum phos and tuberculinum for evening rise in fever.
No response to meds after 2 days. That was weird so I again spoke to the patient and asked her what she does to help the cough. Patient said she drinks warm water continuously. Hence I gave ars alb, and after 2 doses she is 90 percent better and healing well.

I forgot the cardinal rule to ask modalities before dosing. Modalities of the symptoms are very important to note.

Covid in family

COVID in family

Would like to share a case of a 2 families who live under a roof. One of the teenagers was not vaccinated at all and another was. The two sets of parent were partially vaccinated and the mom of the teenager who was vaccinated was also boosted.
So the vaccinated teenager happened to get Covid 10 days ago and was quarantined at home in a room but everyone in the house went about their regular activities. I covered everyone with low dose antivirals 3x a day and imusil tablet twice a day.

The teenager with covid was treated as per protocol. The childs mum was caring for her child and at times accidentally falling asleep on the same bed. In the whole 1 week of illness none of the other family members including the unvaccinated teenager fell sick nor any of the adults and the maid either.
The sick child just tested negative after 8 days and is very well with no residual issues. The whole family also tested negative and remained well.

Tq Dr Tariq for the antivirals and imusil which served this family so well and warded off Covid effectively.

Sore throat

Sore throat

Recently I had bad sore throat lasting for about 2 weeks with minimal whitish phlegm stuck in the throat for which I took phosphorus with no improvement. No cough, fever or pain going to ear. Throat was feeling like a splinter in it so Dr Tariq suggested I use Hepar sul and phytolacca which improved only by about 10%
With Dr Tariq’s advice I took one dose of Sepia as I had increase thirst at night. I developed severe aggravation. All my cervical lymph nodes swelled up, felt a little chilly and had gastritis which was gone for many years. Stopped sepia, however continued Hepar sul and phytolacca. In the next 2 days my sore throat improved by 50% and was gone in 4 days.. My cervical nodes subsided and other aggravation all settled.
Thank you Dr Tariq

This case is pretty simple, high serotonin in her was causing immunosuppression (being too calm also has its side effects), viruses frequently increase serotonin to evade immune responses. With sepia we were able to drop the serotonin and allow her immune system to kill the infection. Phyto and hepar started working after the sepia dose

Asthma post malaria

Complex case of asthma

Patient came 2 weeks ago with breathlessness which started after malaria; was put on an inhaler.

Lung xray was clear, CBC showed high WBC counts and high eosinophils, high IGE of 8000 plus.

Gave nat sul, hayfever combo. Patient felt better on drinking warm water and had reactions to citrus fruits, had increased thirst with dry chapped lips — was hence given ars alb+nat mur. Also gave curzinc since IGE was so high. Next week when the patient came she was overall better but still required to take the inhaler at night only (first it used to be 4 times a day and yet she could not breathe well).

She now told a symptom of a choked nose which worsened at night. I suspected LPR since the choked nose was only when she lied down, there was no discharge. Gave her chelidonium (history of malarial liver damage, chelidonium is a part of drug iberogard for acid reflux). After 2 days of it she is off the inhaler and asymptomatic. We need to recheck IGE now and treat till its normal. Chelidonium is useful in maxillary sinusitis caused by acid reflux and can be used with lyco and causticum.

COVID

A covid case

Diabetic patient with COVID came with sore throat, pain on swallowing and dry cough from a chocked throat. Had taken 2 days of antibiotics with little response, left hand pain was there..

Tests showed high hsCRP at 18, WBC counts, LDH, LFT and D dimer were normal.

Gave her antiviral combo, phytolacca and hepar sul 1m and imusil. She had no thirst changes and hence bryonia was ruled out. The next day the throat pain was much better and she could eat and drink with ease, however the nose and eyes started to water, the watering made her throat feel better. Gave her lachesis, post the first dose itself the nose watering and eye discharges stopped. The left hand pain also subsequently went.

Subcutaneous abscess

Case of deep asbcess – patient was scheduled for amputation

A 48 year old teacher, known case of uncontrolled Type 2 diabetes mellitus with posterior tibial deep subcutaneous abscess. She was scheduled for right below knee amputation (BKA).
She refused for BKA and came to our clinic. She was not able to walk and her right calf was very red and sensitive to touch.
We started her on arnica, sulphur, gun powder, nat sul, lycopodium, imusil, and low dose akkermansia.
Calendula, ferrum phos, ferrum met and crotalus 1m were also added.
We have been doing daily dressing with saline add with gun powder since 28 March 2022 and since last week (25 Apr 2022) she was able to walk again.

We managed to save her Rt leg from BKA !!! Thank you so much Dr Tariq for all the knowlege shared.

Not only that we managed to stop her insulin injections and her blood sugar was in very good control. Akkermansia and imusil proven to be very good to diabetic patients. Controlled glucose and then used crotalus which is the main med for hiradenitis and deep tissue abcesses.
