Childhood Nephrotic Syndrome

My Son first developed swelling on eyelids in Nov.2006 and also had irritation while passing urine. During that time he was punished by me and made him to stand in dark place alone. Next day in a function he was unable to stand. His urine, blood CBC, Cholestrol was tested. Urine contained Albumin 4+, Blood Cholestrol 300. He was detected Nephrotic Syndrome, he developed Ascitis,Swelling all over body. He was given Ayurvedic- Mutralaya Kwatha, and Tab Predinisolone 35 mg per day. Within a week days his swelling gone. Meantime looking the side effects of Steriod we approached an ayurvedic doctor. and started his treatment, he gave some medicine including Ghokru alongwith very reduced dose of steriod. He was to do vomitting in between and also pass albumin with urine in between. This we took for six months. We also tried Homeopaths also simultaneously He was given Apis Mel 30,, Q, Sulphur, Psorinium, etc. Some time he was pass albumin and given Steriod. Again in November 2007 he passed albumin 4+, and his blood cholestrol was 600, Blood Urea 100. Lasix 20 mg was given and also Homeo Opium 30 was given, Next day his Blood Urea was 45. Again steriod 30mg per day was started which is now reduced to 20 mg alternate day. He develops cough and passes albumin in urine in between.

Let's wait dr. rishimba opinion however, I am of the view that:

Apis Mel-200 One dose after 4 days
Vesicaria-Q (5 drops per dose 4 times a day)


dr. mahfooz
 
Mahfoozurrehman last decade
I agree with dr. mahfooz regarding APIS MEL.

during swellings, APIS MEL 30c or 200C could be given as and when required.

LYCOPODIUM would be a suitable remedy for him considering his diathesis, symptoms, generalities and mentals.

LYCOPODIUM 12C two doses ( 5 drops in some 20 ml of water )every morning and evening for some 10 days till a change is seen in his urinary symptoms would be my first prescription.

based on the response in 15 days, further change in the potency or remedy may be done.

this will take some 2 to 3 months to get cured.
 
rishimba last decade
Resp. Dr Mahfooz and Dr Rishimba

Thanks a lot
At present as he is under allopathic treatment and taking Prednisolone 20 alternate day since 13th Dec. He is not having swelling or passing albumin. What shall I do? Shall I give Apis Mel? And also shall I give Lycopodium or Vescicaria? And whether to give Predinisolone? Plz. suggest. Once again thanks.
 
aatifroyali last decade
please dont mix remedies.

if you want to go for homeopathy, you need to stop his allopathy treatment.

then, lycopodium should be given twice a day everyday which is his main remedy.

apis would be helpful during swellings, but not everyday.

Resp Dr. Rishimba
In our small city I am not getting Lycopodium 12. It is available in 6 and 30. What shall I do?
 
aatifroyali last decade
As i have not got Lyco12 and after waiting for your reply, i have given daily single dose of 5 drops of Lyco-6 in water, for last three days. As the atmosphere is chilly now since morning he is having some cold.
