1) What is your Location/age/sex/height/weight? What is your JOB-WORK?

2) Duration of illness?
Suffering since past 10 yrs

3) Chief Complaints?
I am having allergic asthma. I get severe migraines and acidity. Specially when I travel or if I am hungry and I don’t eat anything immediately. Once the headache starts and then there urge to vomit I don’t feel better till I vomit and the yellow stuff comes out. Also if I go out in the sun it starts. No medicines or food helps. I have been taking homeopathy since past 5 years but no relief from this. It’s a pain when I am travelling as sun cant be avoided and I cant stick to any routine and then if I start this then the cycle goes on for days and throwing up everyday and having throbbing pain which doesn’t come down wid pain killers is not fun at all.
It is severely affecting my work. Also when my asthma aggravates I have been given steroid injections to bring the attack in control.

4) How is your Thyroid functioning?
I had it checked recently. No issues at all.

5) Do you have Diabetes?
Nope. But I hav high insulin levels.

6) Do you have Digestion Problem?
Yes and severe ones. I keep on burping all day and I have a feeling as if the food is stuck in my throat and my stomach feels empty all day. It’s a pain as no matter how much or wht I eat I don’t feel satisfied and if I have anything sweet the hunger pangs increase. I gfeel hungry any time of the day and not eating at that point starts the headache and acidity.

Sometimes I am constipated.

None

10) Are you having any stress? Describe it.
I have a nervous disposition so I am usually tensed about small things like getting a late mark at work.

11) Do you get normal sound sleep?
Nope as I have asthama the wheezing increases when it dews in morning so I have to get up atleast 2 -3 times to take inhaler. I have not slept soundly in the past 10-12 years.


12) Explain in detail about your mood?
I get upset very easily. I also get hurt very fast. I don’t easily hurt people. I get tensed very fast. If I have committed to some one about doing something and I am not able to deo it I upsets me a lot. At times I go out of the way and drop a lot of my personal work to fulfill other comitments.i go out of my way to help people whether I have time or not and then get tense bcoz my work is pending.

Sorry for the delay in replying but I was travelling and then I am down with asevere migraine since past 3 days . I am not sleeping at all in the night . the only time I feel sleepy is in the afternoons and vant sleep for more than 2 hrs. Its been 3 days that I have slept only for 2 hrs in the afternoon and been awake the entire night with a throbbing headache which is not reducing with medicines obviously due to lack of sleep.
As I told you that I fret a lot so this sudden vin sleep pattern is disturbing. If I go to the doc he will give me something to sleep it off which I don’t wanna do. Also I started my menses today so its added to the headache and discomfort. The lack of sleep is causing acidity too. I don’t know wht to do.
Please list all the Homeopathy medicines in use or was used with potency. Same goes for allopathy (and for which problem).


I am not sure of the homeopathic medicines except that I am taking Belladona (which the doctor has added to the pills and given)
I am on Asthalin inhaler for Asthama. For migraines I have been prescribed Naprosyn and Dolokind when the attack comes. Besides that I am really not on any medication. If I hav severe asthama attack I have been given Foracort 200 inhaler

) Let me know your Blood pressure count? did you measured it any time ?
Measured it like a week back but didn’t check with the doctor for the count. Will do it today or tomorrow and send you.

2)How is your sweating symptoms ( too much sweating or normal)?
I have too much sweating specially my underarms inner thighs and back. It has a weird acrid smell which irritates me and no matter how good deo I use the sweat smell overpowers it.

3) you said you take inhaler 2-3 times a day is it your regular routine?
Yes sometimes its more specially in the night I wake atleast 2 times because I am chocked so it disturbs my sleep. I don’t remember sleeping for more than 3 hrs at a stretch without having to get up for having inhaler. It’s a habit now for the past 10 yrs. So if you club it I have atleast 4 – 6 attacks during the entire 24 hrs.


4) When in office do you get relive from head pain?
Nope sometimes it increases due to stress so much pain that I am unable to move my neck also because of severe pain in my neck too.

5) Please mention your food habits (breakfast-lunch-dinner)?
After waking up
7 :00 am (normal waking time) 3 glasses of water. 10 mins later a cup of tea
8:15 am ½ khakra, 2 Marie biscuits and ½ cup tea.
10:30 am (in office) 2 boiled egg whites and 2 slices of brown bread or 3 small chicken patties or 1 small bowl upma
1:30 pm 1 ½ chapatti and a bowl of any vegetable (home cooked)
4:00 pm ½ cup Tea
5:30 pm : 1 small bowl Nachni (ragi) porridge
7:30 pm 1 cup tea and some wafers or 2 biscuits

Transfer this to a Hot bottle flask. Take one glass of this liquid in the morning. Rest keep sipping one cup as and when required. Dont have cup of tea ( for time being please avoid tea. NO white sugar).
Also 8:15 tea is out, Biscuits are out, if possible move on to home made chappaties instead of bread.

> You will not keep your self hungry that gives rise to acidity.

Please get hold of following medicine in liquid dilution:

Dear Nikkie

Thanks for the reply.

As far as sun headaches are concerned if I already have a headache and i go out in the sun then it worsens it and if i donot have an headache and i go out in the sun then it starts a severe headache.

Thanks for the update. Hope you moved on with medicine (Carduus Marianus Q) as mentioned in my previous post.

1) Does starting of nasal cold or change of climate lead to asthma attacks ?
2) Does the Phlegum expels with ease?
3) Any symptoms of nausea without/with vomiting OR Vomiting with/without nausea ?
4) Do yu use inhaler during day time?

You said it high level of insulin :
That is Insulinoma, which is a condition in which excessive amounts of insulin is produced. This, in turn, causes low blood sugar, which results in fatigue, weakness and insatiable hunger (which is mentioned in your data).

When using inhaler ,many patients will feel weak, nervous, irritable, sick to their stomach, and have difficulty sleeping. Patients may also experience dry throat,light-headedness etc.

As we proceed with the treatment, we hope the symptoms are treated .

Please Update.

Blessings & Prayers,
Nikkie.
