anxiety / mental obsession with current health problem 2

Please help with my son's current anxiety !

Hi
My 9 year old son has regressive autism and his main delays are in speech and cognition right now. He has had H Pylori for the past 2 years or so and still has gastritis and esophagitis and is being treated by Prilosec. I am not sure if that is helping but we will know soon.

Over the past 6-8 months or so, he has developed a severe anxiety issue. He doesn't even want to go to his fav places like play areas, toy stores etc as he just doesn't want to get down from the car. He even gets so agitated if he sees red light at the signal and will only calm down when the light turns green. At home, he has bee extra clingy and starts crying around 5:00pm if his dad is not home. It is very difficult to reason with him as he won't stop until he sees his dad. He will go to bed only if both mom and dad are with him. He constantly checks if we are both in the house. When I am in shower, I can feel the panic in his voice as he calls me to make sure I am in teh bathroom.

Due to the above problem, it has been very difficult to do anything outside home anymore and his panic and anxiety has created tremendous stress in me and my husband as well.

I would greatly appreciate any help in addressing this anxiety and OCDish behavior.

I suspect there is some sort of adrenal issue (which he may have had all along anyway as I tend to have anxiety esp around my periods, depression, panic attacks, fatigue etc) that may have messed up his HPA axis.

Please help.
Thanks so much !

PS I can give his history and tendencies if that will help.

Hello,

Thank you for your reply. I was hoping for a drugless solution to this problem as this is only recent (the past few months and uncharacteristic of him). Since my son has gastritis and esophagitis, I am pretty sure his anxiety is connected to these two conditions. Moreover, my son does not do well on many supplements and pharmaceuticals.

Thanks

Dear jkris:
I advice to give to your son NUX VOMICA 9CH. Put three pellets in a 0'5 liter bottle of mineral water. Put into five drops of brandy or whisky as conservative.
Shake well. Give two spoons from the bottle to your son, twice a day (one before awaking up; and the second before going to bed).
Before each intake, shake well.

It's very difficult to find the correct remedy for your son, specially because we have no too much symptoms, but I'll try to explain why NUX VOMICA.
Nux Vomica acts on the toxicologic problems (you say he has had problem with his medicines); it acts too on the digestive system (you say your son has digestive ailments); it acts too on nervous system (you talk about anxiety and insomnio and irritability).
I think Nux Vomica can be our best goal. When you finish the bottle content, please, report us.
Best wishes

Thanks so much Andres, I really appreciate it.

Is it OK if I leave out the alcohol part in the remedy preparation ? Or is there an alternative ?

Thanks again

Dear Jkris:
You should use these only three drops of brandy, but if you prefer don't use them, the best is prepare every day the bottle with the three pellets of Nux Vomica, and when you have given to your son the dosis in the evening, throw away the liquid.
Usually, depends on weather, depends on enviroment conditions, the preparation can be useful more less two days, but without the brandy drops, it's better the preparation as I say above.
If you finally prepare the remedy as i say in this last post, please, report in a week.
If there are any annoyed affect -you see- report.
Best wishes

Dr. Andres, I agree with your observation and Nux.vom.
but could u feel it feasable that Kali Phos-200 or 1m would help him.

Dear Dr. Mahfooz:
I appreciate your advise. Thank for your help.
But Kali Phos. are use to treat muscular and neurological disturbs (neurastenia) with 'weakness' as a keynote. The digestive disturbs and the insomnio by nightmares and nervousism, may be covered by K.Ph, but I can't find weakness neither irritability in this case (usually autist child have a special behavior).
I would try with Nux V. If there is no result, we can try with K. Phos.
Thanks again
Andrés
