2) If you do not have family history of Tubercolsis, then Take Only one dose of Tuberculinium-1M (three dops a dose)
3) Dr.Reckwege No: R-1 (20 drops in a little water)for 15 days and report.

dr. mahfooz
 
Mahfoozurrehman last decade
R-1 (20 drops per dose four times a day)
 
Mahfoozurrehman last decade
Dr. Mahfooz,
Thanks for your advice. There is no family history of Tuberculosis. But, as informed you earlier, the chest x-ray shows an old koch's lesion and had taken anti-TB drugs for six months in 2003.
Kindly advise whether 'Tuberculinium'is to be taken or not. Further, I shal be obliged if you kindly suggest an alternative medicine of Dr. Reckwege R-1 as I am facing some problem to collect the same locally. In addition kindly suggests for complain of constipation.
Regards

Dear patient,
Okay do not take Tuber. Try to found R-1 a very useful combination. If these are not available then repeat the previous prescription for 2 weeks and report.

dr. mahfooz
 
Mahfoozurrehman last decade
Dr. Mahfooz,

Thanks for your advice. I have purchased the R-1 combination.Kindly let me know whether I will take only R-1,four times a day as prescribed by you. Would you kindly inform me what type of improvement I may expect with R-1 so that I can give you the feed back after 15 days.

Regards

dear patient,
R-1 will reduce your ESR level when it becomes normal then you will found too much relief in your other ailings. Also pleas continue only Arsen.Alb-200 one dose after 4 days and come back with progress after 15 days.

As for the bowel movement Gelsemium 30 can help a lot. a few doses would do. it will also reduce feeling sleepy all the time.
