The ABC Homeopathy Forum

For Dr. Rishimba...

Hello, dr Rishimba I appreciate very much how you are helping me with my eczema. Now an aquaintance of mine is asking to get her case reviewed. I have questioned her in detail as follows.

Sex: F
Build: short, quite thin. A tired looking dull appearence with dark circles under eyes. mother scandinavian and father of arabic decent.
Married, two children, youngest is breastfed infant (solids introduced).

Climate: Live in scandinavia (mild summers, cold winters)

Main problems are:

-eczema on both hands, dry,
-recurrent fungus in left ear which started in the second pregnancy one year ago. when fungus infection blooms up there is a peculiar feeling as if there was something sticky in the ear, sometimes a swashing feeling when waking up in the morning
-Tricky digestive system since getting pregnant for the secomd time, finds it very difficult to swallow meat, feel that stomach has problems to handle milk and flour, feels bloated. was anemic in pregnancy and might still be (iron levels not checked lately)
-fatigue with physical and mental dullness, might be from anemia

The eczema started seven years ago after a travel to India. some time after returning home it started as a infection on the right thumb and later developed into eczema, which slowly spread out on the whole hand, and now it has begun on the left hand. three fingers on the left hand now have some fungus beside the nails.
Was vaccinated from infanthood by the standard program. Has got all the recommended vaccinations before traveling and suspects the problem might have been triggered by that.

Medication history
Has recently taken herbal evening primrose oil capsules 4 a day for 20 days with no change in the eczema.
For the ear fungus: peracortil, diproderm
For eczema: locoid 0,1 % hydrocortisone (taken several years ago)

When is it worse?
- eczema: worse in cold weather, worse with washing, when handling wheat flour & olive oil, worse in the middle of the night though waking her up, burning, no itching, sensitive to synthetic materials, sensitive to almost all chemicals, even soaps, schampoos and cosmetics, worse with wool
- fatigue: generally weak and easily exhausted

food cravings and aversions:
strong aversion to red meat, egg aversion alternating with craving
strong craving for butter and margarine (spread) and to some extent sweet food, white bread even though can't tolerate it
have sort of a caffeine addiction but trying to control it

The food eaten is mainly brown rice, millet, buckwheat, beans, fish, chicken, fruits and vegetables.

Dominating mood:
In general content with life, melancholic, a worrier though not about trivial issues, tired mentally, better in open air, voices and music heard play back in the mind, very bad memory about what she was going to do, doesnt remember well known streets,

Sleep
Falls asleep immediately after going to bed. Gets around 6 hours per night though feels she could sleep 8. An early riser.

Reluctant to exercise but after exercising feels better.

Hunger & thirst
Extremely hungry, normal thirst

Menstrual affection: not currently menstruating due to breastfeeding, before it was a very regular 28 day cycle, period lasting 5 days but a bit eccessive amount

Family history of disease:
Two brothers have allergies (pollen). No other diseases in immediate family, but three nephews have gluten intolerance, lactose intolerance and diabetes type 1 respectively.

Plz kindly review this case if you have time.

Correction

'When is it worse?
- eczema: worse in cold weather, worse with washing, when handling wheat flour & olive oil, worse in the middle of the night though waking her up'

it should say though NOT waking her up

Waiting for your reply

Could you kindly reply?
 
Dalia last decade
let me study the case.

shall come back to you with some clarifications and questions soon.
 
rishimba last decade
Ok take your time

considering the etiology ( most probable ), the totality of symptoms and modalities, the remedy which is indicated is SULPHUR.

let her start treatment with SULPHUR 200C two doses at 15 minutes interval on any ONE morning in empty stomach.

no food for the next 2 hours.

report after 15 days.

i believe, either a few repetitions or the next higher potency will be required to complete the cure.

Thank you for replying. I just have to add that i think she does not at all have the mind aspects of sulphur so it seems confusing to me. She is a very clean and neat person, short and slim, has alot of anxiety, feels worse during sleep and in morning. But I understand that probably you don't mean that this is her constitutional type. Don't be offended but I am just trying to understand how sulphur could work for her. I am not a homeopath so really I have nothing to say, but sulphur would be the last remedy i would think about. I think I myself am the suphur type and I am like totally opposite of her. Would you clarify this situation. Or if you need more information about the case just ask, maybe I haven't given enough.
 
Dalia last decade
And by the way as you might know we can only find D potency here.
 
Dalia last decade
i had chosen sulphur based on what you told me.

i agree with you that sulphur is generally an untidy and shabby person.

if she is a clean and tidy person, she will match that of ars alb. skin symptoms of ars alb are close to sulphur but in this case, sulphur will still dominate because, the disease is most probably induced in the system due to vaccination. considering this, sulphur will be my first choice.

if sulphur fails, ars alb will be the next choice.
 
rishimba last decade
take D potency if you cant get C potency.

Dr. Rishimba,

I was referred to you. I have problems with constant yeast infection and found the below questionnaire, completed it and hope you can help. On and off I have been suffering from 2002 with a break for 3 years (no regular sex life). Then from 2005-now constantly with some peaks but mostly mild but constant discomfort. I am tired of going to see different gyno doctors. They all say it looks healthy down there. Test for stds and say everything is great.

Patient ID:Elena3
Sex: F
Age: 28
1. Describe your main suffering? Vaginal discomfort, painful sex

2. What other physical sufferings do you have in your body? dry vagina, painful urination, yeasty smell down there, white creamy discharge during and after sex, constant feeling of having to go urinate

3. What mental sufferings / feelings do you have associated with your physical sufferings?
loss of sexual drive, worried for my married life

4. What exactly do you feel when you are at your worst?
discomfort down there, swollen vaginal lips, slight burning/itchiness, depression

5. When did it all start? Can you connect it to any past event or disease?
in 2004 I took strong antibiotics to treat severe acne, which I suspect lowered my immune system. That was when my first yeast infection occurred. After that it came back pretty much every 2 months during my active sexual life.


6. Which time of the day you are worst?
no difference in time

7. What are the things which aggravate your suffering and which are those which ameliorate the same?
sex makes it worse
nothing makes it better anymore. Monistat and other over the counter medicine used to help temporarily. Now I never have a full blown yeast infection with cottage discharge, but it’s an ongoing discomfort, I know something is not right down there, slight itchiness, complete dryness, and constant creamy discharge that only comes out after a work-out or sex.

8. Do your think your sufferings have relation to any external stimuli (like, change of place) or any internal biological changes in the body, like, menses (in females)?
nope

9. When do you feel better, during hot weather or cold weather, humid or dry weather?
no difference

10. Describe your general mental set up? Are you Moody, Arrogant, Mild, Agreeable Changeable, Nervous, Suspicious, Easily offended, Quiet, Arguing, Irritating, Lazy etc.
All of the above except quiet.

- How do you feel before or during a thunderstorm?
joints ache

- Do you like being consoled during your tough times?
yes

- Are you sensitive to external stimuli like smell, noise, light etc? yes, to sounds! used to not be the case

- Do you have any typical habit or gesture like nail biting, causeless
weeping, talking to one self etc?
cutting into the cuticles of my fingers with my other finger nail. painful, but i catch myself doing it all the time when i'm thinking or stressed out.

- How do you feel about your friends, family, your children and especially your husband / wife? - i feel great, except worried for my love life because of the condition

11. What are your fears and do you dream of any situation repeatedly?
very fearful lately of having someone break into our house, or fear of losing loved ones

12. What do you crave for in food items and what are your aversions? crave cheese, fruit!!!, chocolate !!!!! (right before period)
Adversions to spicy food, curry, cannot stand alcohol now


13. How is your thirst: Less, Normal or Excessive?
Normal

14. How if your hunger: Less, Normal or Excessive?
Normal

15. Is there any kind of food which your body can’t stand?
curry

16. Is your sweat normal or less or more? Where does it sweat more: Head, Trunk or Limbs? more than normal on my face (forehead and chin)

17. How is your bowel movement and stool type?
normal

18. How well do you sleep? Do you have a particular posture of sleeping?
normal on my side mostly

19. Do you think you are able to satisfy your sexual desires in general?
in general - yes. now - NO!

20. How do you think you are different from others, if at all?
i worry too much about everything. Job is stressful, which translates to my personal life too.

21. What medications have been taken earlier by you to treat the diseases and do you have any particular symptom surfacing after the medication?
In 2002, they found HPV and I got one procedure done (forgot the name) and have been a regular at the gynecologist for subsequent follow-ups. The condition was not serious, and it went away.
I also used to be on birth control - Tritex for 3 years. stopped it due to these infections in mid 2008. I used to be so moist and lubricated there, now it’s nothing but dryness even if I am turned on.

22. What major diseases are running in your family?
digestive system cancers, diabetes, ulcer

23. Describe, how do you look like? Describe your overall appearance. caucasian, 5'8, 135lbs, wavy hair, blue eyes, round face, not delicately built (rather athletic), fit, look younger than am

please take NAT CARB 30C every 4 hours for some 2 to 3 days only.

once you feel some difference, you should stop.

if you dont feel any difference in 3 days, stop the doses anyways.

one dose would consist of 4 drops of remedy in some 10 ml of water slowly sipped up in empty stomach.

dont take any food and water one hour before or after taking the dose.
 
rishimba last decade
after 10 days, if you dont find absolutely no change, please come back to try the second best indicated remedy.

sometimes, the right remedy cant be found out in the first prescription.
 
rishimba last decade
Doctor,

Thank you so much. I am reporting huge improvement. I was taking NAT CARB 30C for 2.5 days, and stopped, as you recommended, when symptoms got better. i am going to see how this week goes. But so far, i notice my vagina is moist, and the burning and itching is almost completely gone.
do you have any tips on how to ensure the problem doesn't come back? any tips on prophylactics ( maybe repeating NAT CARB 30C dosage every now and then?) also, should my husband take the same course? we haven't been intimate after I took the medicine. I was just curious. Thank you again!!!
 
Elena3 last decade
let the improvement continue.

please dont take any further doses now.

however, if the symptoms return you can start the remedy in 30c or 200c again for a day or two.

by this time, if the body gets cured, you will not have furthur recurrence of the symptoms.



else,a single dose of NAT CARB 1M will ensure that the problem doesnt return for quite some months.

this remedy is for your personality and totality and this will not have any effect on your hubby.

you two can go for it and report to me if you notice any pain. i feel, things would be fine. best wishes.
 
rishimba last decade
Doctor, it was going all great for about a week and a half.
After that the symptoms came back and stayed for a week. After which I decided to repeat the 30C dose for a day. I just stopped taking it last night. Do you have any suggestions? :( maybe another remedy. I am very discouraged :( It worked so nicely in the beginning.
 
Elena3 last decade
no other remedy.

whenever you have the discomfort you need to take some 4 to 6 doses of the suggested remedy at intervals of 4 to 6 hours.

if you see, the 30c potency doesnt work anymore, you should then go for 200c potency once in three or four days continuously for some three weeks.

by that time, probably you would get permanent relief.
