CBD-stricture remedies

My fathers CBD is narrowed due to thickening of its walls and due to this his bilirubin contents increases and get jaundice...the allopathy cure is to do ERCP where in a stent with a balloon is put in CBD and CBD size is increased.This needs to be done every 3-4 months...Any remedy for the above situation?he also has diabetes and heart problem.Doctor says that this happends due to weakened immune system but say there is no remedy....Please suggest.

Dr Yogesh

Thanks so much for looking into this and replying.
He is a very calm person.doesnt talk much at all.keeps thinking to self.you never know whats goin on in his mind.doesnt get angry at all.But he had a lot of stress and financial worries at around 36 when he was first detected with diabetes.he had an athelete body and a very good appetite till then and after that everything went downhill....he lost his appetite , lost a lot of weight, went through lot of turmoil - emotional , physical and mental stress.He was admitted many many times in hospital due to all this conditions and that kept him in a lot of tension.We are middle class family and he is a professor in college but still when it comes to big operations like angioplasty and all , there are always financial worries.
But he never shows those feelings to anyone.He is very predictable.I mean when he agrees with someone , he will smile and when he disagrees with someone he will still smile and let it go.He has got many friends due to this nature.He doesnt go against any one.Meanwhile there were lot of tensions in our family for my marriage, my brothers education and his job.But he doesnt say a word.Doctors ask him to open up his mind and clear the thoughts he has in his mind.doctors say that he is suffocating in his mind due to lot of thoughts and tensions..Also due to lot of medicines that he has taken since 36 years of his age...his immune system is weakened - doctors say so.They say that all these diseases are happening are called 'auto immune diseases'.Please let me know if need anything else.I will provide the info.

Thanks again for takin a look.

Sneha,
ONE last Question.
What does he feel or think about his condtion(CBD thickening) now?
Dont manipulate yourself, Go & ask him this question in person.
Write back in his own word,
You are a good observer so also observe how did he answer your Question, & let me know he will improve slowly steadily But surely

Regards,
Dr. Yogesh

he feels nothing about the cbd thing now.no tension and no fear.its feels nice now he said.only when that cbd narrows then the trouble starts and i take no tension to it as i know that there is a surgery option to it.but when the uneasiness starts he said, it becomes very bad situation as he cant do anything.He stays in jalgaon and he has to travel to mumbai as only Dr Maydeo in mumbai does this surgery in entire india.That situation becomes very troublesome he says and so he wants some other option to it..either medicine or the way to prevent it, as in allopathy there is only surgery available...no medicine he said.i asked the same question as you said and he interpreted that and answered exactly in the same way above.if we got your question wrong or if this is not the answer (perspective) you want, then please let me know...i will ask him that way.
 
xsneha last decade
Sneha,
Take a single dose of 4-5 drops of Sulphur 6C dilution in 10-15 ml of water to be taken in the morning on empty stomach.
ONLY ONE DOSE DON'T REPEAT!
Pls note I am particular about the potency.
I want 6C only.
Report in 4-5 days
Regards,
Dr. Yogesh
 
yogeshrajurkar last decade
Ok.I will tell him to take this dose.Just one question.We usually keep on checking his blood results as SGPT and billirubin levels go high and then he gets jaundice ...Also we do his sonography once in 3 months so that we know the size of his CBD.right now it size is 1.4mm. So what should we do after 4-5 days when we report to you?blood test or sonographt and what exactly should i report to you?
If this CBD size goes below 1.3mm, doctor says we should immediately go and have the operation done.
 
xsneha last decade
Sneha,
Just give the dose, then report how is he feeling. does he feel better?
His appetite?
His sleep?
His stool (motions)?
Reports of bilirubin & sgpt will be helpful.
Regards,
Dr. Yogesh
 
yogeshrajurkar last decade

Hello Doctor

My dad for temperature yesterday and he felt uneasy in the stomach.So they went to the doctor to check up and he advised him to go to Mumbai and have the CBD operated again.His blood reports are as follows

SGPT 80
Billirubin 1.4

Its been around 7 months that he had the operation for widening the bile duct.And every 6 -7 months he needs operation.So now we are in process of getting appointment from Dr Maydeo in Mumbai.Just hoping that condition wont get too serious so that he can atleast go till mumbai.

Please advice next homeopathy dose so he can continue the treatment after he comes back.
 
xsneha last decade
Did the Dr. do the sonography.
What is the CBD size?
I mean to say why did they advise for the surgery? due to fever? due to bilirubin? OR due to SGPT?
He had fever but was it high fever or just a mild one?
Was he in distress or was normal?
the pain in abdomen was mild or severe?

Regards,
Dr. Yogesh
 
yogeshrajurkar last decade
Sonography was done on 7 jan and CBD size was 4.1
Doctor asked based on sgpt n bilirubin
Temperature was 101 on the first and till now it is 100 ...its constant...

yes he was in distress...it was like he couldnt understand whats happening...
and just below lungs...if he touchws the bones there it pained....just where the lungs end..
he had no pain in the abdomen ..but he was restless...he felt sometime acidic and sometimes hot or some uneasiness
As in he was not able to define whats exactly happening inside the stomach...

He has fever on dec 25 but it went by after 4 days of medication.Now he got fever and Doctor gave him some medicines.
This will be his 5th time for the surgery...everytime before for 4 times...whenever his reports were like the same as now, he
used to get pains in lower abdomen n vomiting and he used to lose his energy and could not stand even.Then our regular doctor
used to give him some medicines and after 3 -4 days od meds n saline he was atleast in the condition to travel till mumbai.

Mumbai Doctor Maydeo asked us last time that this is your 4th time and it is very clear that you need this surgery after every 7 months
so why do u wait till the last moment till he is fully drained by vomitting and all...He advised us to get the surgery done every 6 months
This is 7 and half month later that this again came up.

So our jalgaon doctor advised that why are you taking a risk now.Reports are not that good.Better take him to mumbai fast.
One thing that we noticed this time ( different than the 4 times earlier) he has no vomiting and no lower right side abdomen pain
but he got fever.This never happened till now.He has his appointment for 4th of feb.Hopefully he will sustain it till then.He is not
yet hospitalized this time.Hope it will be ok for the next 7 days.

If you need any more details, please let me know.
Also, Please let us know any further doses for him.

Hello xsneha

You seem to be a genuine sufferer with a real medical problem unlike a lot of posts on this forum with vague issues that may respond to these esoteric treatments. Therefore I'd like to provide my help as well:

Can you please tell me what the specific diagnosis of your father is? Is it Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis? Primary Biliary Cirrhosis? It doesn't really fit the description of either of those. Is it some other disease? It should be in his medical records.

Strictly speaking, if his only problem is narrowing of the CBD, then procedures exist to remove the CBD entirely which are routinely performed. Without having a clear picture of his problem, with only your first post as reference, it seems idiotic to me to constantly perform ERCP on a duct in such poor shape.

There may be genuine medical or surgical options that are still available to you and I would be glad to list them if you could kindly provide me further details of your father's condition.

Homeopathic remedies have absolutely no role in the treatment of any illness but they are especially dangerous to people with serious illnesses. Have you ever wondered why there are no homeopathic hospitals? Ever heard of someone being admitted to a homeopathic inpatient facility?

This gentleman who is responding to you obviously has no idea what you are talking about. He is asking about random details which have no value to a homeopath simply to make himself seem credible. They are taught to treat a patient "fully", keeping in mind all social, emotional, physical states etc. While this serves to make a lot of patients feel better, it's really very cruel if the actual treatments don't work.

You can contact me at [email address in profile] (since I expect to be banned promptly). I am a licensed physician from a WHO recognized medical school who is making this post in absolute good faith. I have nothing to gain from helping you, I just can't stand to see you waste money as a last resort. I understand your desperation and worry, please respond.

Even if it's no help; at the very least, it's a free medical opinion.

Hello Fallot

I have full faith in homeopathy and in Dr Yogesh.

I appreciate your efforts to explain whatever you believe.But Sorry...thats not my opinion and I do NOT agree at all in what you said.
 
xsneha last decade
Sneha,
Till your appointment give him a single dose of Aconite 30C
You Know what I mean by single dose.
Only one dose then wait!
In 24 hrs again review his condition & report back.

Dr. Yogesh
 
yogeshrajurkar last decade
Fallot,

There are homeopathic hospitals. To name but one, there is the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital. It is an outpatient hospital (as is a lot of the NHS), but so would any hospital be where the treatment involved only administering pills.

In any case, if you can state your truth in a way that is not offensive to other members of the forum, there would be no need to ban you, even if we never agree. Be polite is all.

Thank you,
Simon

Hello Doctor

He took one single dose of aconite 30c yesterday.
He has no temperature since last 2 days.his restlessness is gone and there is no pain but only that he has tremendous weakness.The medicines that our family doctor gave him are still going on(5 day course).

One thing he mentioned today to tell you was that in 1971(his college times) he had very severe jaundice, he was in bed for around 3 months and no doctor could cure it.Every one had lost hopes then but one ayurvedic doctor cured him with some meds.(Churnas)
Since then his liver is very weak and he has got some minor issues going on.
He never smokes or drinks and he is a strict vegeterian.

He thought that we must tell you this and since i had missed it, i wrote it now.

Please advice further.
Thanks again Doctor.
 
xsneha last decade
Sneha,
You said he has got tremendous weakness.
What is his condition now?
His appetite?
Why you said tremendous weakness?
His motions ( stool) how are they?

Regards,
Dr. Yogesh
 
yogeshrajurkar last decade
Sneha,
How is he coping with his weakness now?

Dr. Yogesh
 
yogeshrajurkar last decade
Today he is ok.His weakness is gone now and he is able to walk and eat and do everything normally.

His appetite has also returned to normal n he feels that he is hungry and should eat.

He is on Medication of Cledomox 625 tablest since last 5 days and that made him feel the weakness.he felt like sleeping and was not able to get up...he felt like he had no energy to to do anything .But now today he is completely ok.

His motions are also normal now.But since he had ulcerative colitis he has to go 3 times a day.When he had fever in last 4 days he had loose motions but now it is normal and 3 times a day.
 
xsneha last decade
Sneha,
WOW! That is great!
When hunger & motions are well then I think the remedy has worked & also given good indications.
If we could do the tests again & also a sonography just to determine weather it is really high time to get the operation done.
If the report s are encouraging & CBD size is good then you can get an opinion( From Dr. Mayadeo) wheather to go ahead for an operation or not.
As concerned about the dose now you should wait dont give any dose, let the body set things right.
If any problem in between let me know asap!!
Report back in 2 days till then wait & observe.

Regards,
Dr. Yogesh

Hello Dr Yogesh

My dad had the operation, but this time Dr Mukta Bapat did it as Dr Maydeo was out of India.
Now after the operation she advices to do MRCP and some 2 blood tests whose reports are not yet there.But he got fever again yesterday and the same restlessness and not exactly pain in lower of the ribs...but he presses the lower of his ribs constantly so that we get it clearly that he is very restless.We called the Dr in mumbai again and she said that their is some infection so temprature will be there and she gave some medicine -zenflox...
The reports of the operation say that right biliary duct was expanded to 1.8mm but the left ERCP tube was unable to traverse through the left biliary duct and so it could not be expanded.(We have no idea whether it is swollen or it is packed with something and why was the tube not able to pass through it.)
He is again weak and does not feel hungry so eats very less.And he ate very less since last 2 days(immediately after the operation ) so he did pass the stool.
Please advice further doses.He came back to jalgaon but I guess that we need to take him back to mumbai soon.

His blood report also came today
SGPT , bilirubin are up by 10 of their normal limits and WBC count is 12500.(normal is 10000)
His homeoglobin is 11.5
our family doctor in jalgaon thinks that he got jaundice again as his skin looks pale yellow and he has also given some medicine.
