Muscular Dystrophy/Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy(DMD) 2

 

The ABC Homeopathy Forum

dmd

I request the help of professional doctors in the name of humanity for a girl of 10 suffering from D Muscular Dystrophy.
Her elder sister of 2 years died of the same disease about a year back. Another elder sister of 16 years died of heart disease 16 months back. She was recommended muscular valve replacement a year before her death but they could not afford the surgery.
Currently the patient is without sensation in upper and lower limbs.
Allopathic doctors have declared the illness as incurable.
We are giving her
12 tissue salts 6x 3 times daily
plumbum 30c 3 times daily
lathyrus 30c 3 times daily
This has been continuing for the last 2 months but there is no improvement or change. I have her blood test reports (CPK) and diagnosis from paedriatic neurologists and I can provide it to you. If you need any other information / symptoms I can provide to you.
May Gos bless you.

Doctor Sahab Jazzak Allah for your interest.
The little girl is the daughter of our former house maid. The family has now left the locality . I will try to get in touch with the mother to get all the answers I can. These are poor and illiterate people(may Allah help them)so it may be difficult to get all the details you want.
I am no expert, not even a proper novice, but I read just 3 remedies listed under 'muscular atrophy'
Plumbum
Lathyrus
Causticum
These I gave to her for about 2 months but there was no response.

Homoeopathy doesn't really work according to the name of the condition. For any chronic complaint a detailed account of the unique experience of the individual living with the disease is necessary.

It is quite possible that a remedy that has never cured muscular dystrophy before might be indicated for her. This can only be ascertained by getting full case from her and her parents, so I hope they are able to do that for us.

The girl is 10 years. She was normal upto 4-5 years of age, ran and played like other children. Then she started falling while walking or running. Later she had difficulty getting up after a fall or standing up from sitting. From here on the disease progressed rapidly. After 3-4 months, she was unable to walk. At the same time her upper limbs were getting weak. She had difficulty lifting her hands, but she can still hold things. She was diagnosed with DMD, though this disease runs almost exclusively in males. She came in contact with me about 3 years back. I took her to a neurologist and they confirmed the diagnosis. During her checkup, she showed no sensation in lower limbs or upper limbs. She had 2 elder sisters, 2 years elder and a 4 years elder. The first had this same disease and she died about 1.5 years back. The eldest had a weak heart valve and she died 2 years back. There is another younger sister, 2 years younger, who is fine. A little pale and weak and I felt a little mentally backward, but physically and functionally OK.
Despite her illness she is a happy and loving kid. Rarely she asks her mother such questions: why am I diseased? Why is everyone else OK and I am crippled? Why did my elder sisters have disease? She loved both her sisters very much and still cries on their memory.
Other than this, she is happy. She plays with cousins, talks to them and is a friendly kid. She is courteous and talkative to adult relatives. Occasionally she would indulge in some crying or stubbornness for a toy or snack and would be angry for half an hour.
She goes to a madersah (religious school) and is learning. Not intelligent but not dull either. Her voice is low and her teacher keeps on asking her to speak up. I guess voice muscles are weak too. She wakes up by herself before school time and goes there eagerly.
Her favorite posture of sitting, I guess due to her weakness. She sits on the floor, heel-to-toe flat on the floor and her bottom also touching the floor. She can move with effort, she has to push her feet with her hands and use some force from her lower back to move.
Sleep is good, timely and deep. She wakes her mother up 3-4 times a night to turn her, as she cannot turn by herself.
In foods, she will not take any sweets. Not even sugar in milk or tea. Other than that she has no particular likes or dislikes.
She drinks very little water, just 2-3 glasses daily. Even after her meal she would sip half a glass. She has people around her and can ask for water, or she can get water by herself.
Consequently she urinates just 2 or 3 time daily. Urine is odorless.
Stools are regular, at a fixed time in the morning, not offensive, perfect. Digestion is fine.
She dislikes closed rooms and craves for open air. Even in hot sunny days, she would prefer a shady spot outdoors.
Likes to play in the rain like other kids.
Left and right side are equally effected.

She was getting worse. She started to fall from her sitting posture about 4 months back.
This Sunday her mother came to me all excited that the kid is somewhat better. She is not falling from her sitting position. She even turned in bed by herself. She clapped her hands. She raised her hand up to her head.
The mother heard about a new treatment center that treats all diseases with rays. It is a machine that cures all known and unknown illnesses in regular half hour sessions. She is taking that treatment for 1 week and is convinced that the improvement is because of the magic machine. I could not convince her that no such machine exists and the improvement may be because of Plumbum, Lathyrus and Causticum that she has been taking. All I could convince her mom was to continue with pellets I have prepared for her:
Plumbum 30 + Alfalfa 1X + Avena Sat 1X + Gentiana Lutea 1X + Silicea 6X + Ferrum Met 6X + Ginseng 1X + Calc Phos 6X + China 3X – 5 pellets 3 times a day
Lathyrus 200 – 5 pellets morning
Causticum – 5 pellets evening

A magic machine that mysteriously cures all diseases? How gullible are people? How much do they charge for this miraculous treatment?
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Dr Kempson, you cannot imagine the gullibility of some one who has been illiterate for generations, whose entire family is illiterate, who has seen nothing but poverty and misery, who, when falls sick, has to queue up in a filthy state run subsidized hospital for a full day to get 1 or 2 minutes time, no attention or respect from the doctor or staff.
This magic center gives respect and kindness to such people. That's their number one attraction. They charge nothing for half an hour therapy. All they want to do is sell those machines for US$1100, as optimum results will be obtained with 1 hour sessions 3 times daily.
Now this poor soul will beg 10 or 20 kind, gullible, well-off people and narrate the tremendous benefit and magic cure. They will contribute and she will eventually buy. What tops this, 5 of those 20 contributors might themselves buy one. Lots of well educated people in the east believe in miracles.

I forgot to mention about the 10 year old with DMD, menstrual periods have not commenced. Her elder sisters died at about 10-12 years age, both never had periods.

Homoeopathy creates genuine miracles, nobody has to be convinced of it. I believe in miracles, but I also think there are many people in the world who wish only to feed off the suffering of others.

I have noticed that many people are easily swayed by flattery, and will establish bonds of loyalty to those who give them sweet sugary words.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Dr Kempson, would you agree to Plumbum 200 or 1M instead of Plumbum 30?
 
75daud last decade
I haven't analyzed this case I don't have any real idea about what is a suitable medicine at this point.
