Help for Brother with multiple chronic conditions
Hi!My 70 year old brother has the following chronic conditions. 3 years ago diagnosed with Liver disease -cirrhosis & stage 4 kidney disease ... 3 months ago Dysphagia that caused pneumonia was in the hospital and now has a feeding tube in his stomach until he can strengthen his throat with exercises to eat food again.
He was told that the edema pills caused the kidney disease. His blood tests show he is now anemic, low in Vit B13, D3 and testosterone.
He only sleeps 2-4 hrs at a time, always feels drained, tired and legs feel heavy & weak. Feels cold, craves pizza, teeth delaminated. He was a beer drinker and smoker in younger years and taking meds for gout. If he does his throat exercises the therapist said it’s improving. He’s said he’s getting tired, disgusted and wants to give up. I keep trying to encourage him to have positive and can heal thoughts. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
Thank you!

Thank you so much for your response!
For my clarification...are the 5 Chelidonium Q and 5 Carduus marianus q drops each placed in 1 ounce of water ? He drinks each of those diluted mixtures?
This will not interfere with his current medications? Or should he get this approved by his physician?
Thanks again,
Sue K

The Nux Vom and Nat Sulph are arriving tomorrow. The other 3 won't be in until 2 more weeks. Do we wait for all to be available before starting?
Thanks!

Hi!
My brother’s been taking the Nux Vom and Nat Sulf for about a week. Still hasn’t received the other 3. Another major issue is his COPD in which he has shortness or breath and gets winded very easily. One of the days over the past week he said his breathing felt better and he had more energy. Do those remedies also help out with the lungs?
Thanks for all your help!!

Hi!
He’s taking all the remedies and the antibiotics for his respiratory infection wore off and he feels it coming back again. Is there anything he can do to get his system to fight off the lung infection from reoccurring? Should he continue with all the remedies? They tested the dysphagia and the food is still aspirating into his lungs so he continues with the feeding tube and throat exercises.
Thank you!

What are the symptoms associated with COPD?
♡ anuj srivastava 3 years ago
He said he has shortness of breath, chills, if he drinks or eats anything he has to keep clearing his throat from the mucous that results from it, if he talks too much it creates mucous. Today when he was walking outside he was gasping for air and had to use the inhaler.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!

You have nowhere mentioned that you have started the other remedies which had not arrived.
In addition start Kali Phos 6x five tabs three times a day.

Hi!
He’s been taking the ones that didn’t arrive for a about 8 days in addition to the ones that arrived first. He said he’s feeling stronger. Last week’s test results show he’s still aspirating food into his lungs because the flap that’s suppose to cover isn’t working properly. I asked his primary care doctor if any of his meds could be causing this and he said Gabepentin could which he’s taking for edema and itching. He has an appointment next week With this primary care dr to discuss what can be done. Should he continue with the remedies you recommended ( he did not get the Kali Phos 6X) , lessen or stop them until he gets the med that’s causing dysphagia & aspiration replaced or stopped? Again, outside of the aspiration he said he’s feeling stronger and he sounds stronger when I talk to him.
Thanks so much for your help!

Hi!
He’ll need to order the Apis 30. When he gets it, he takes the 3 doses that day only even though he’s not currently experiencing the edema & itching...and then waits?
Thank you!

Hi Anuj,
It’s been a week since he took the Apis 30 for that day.
He had edema in his legs a couple days ago and needed to take an additional half pill to get the swelling down. He’s been very short of breath the past few weeks and started spitting up phlegm and his doctor prescribed antibiotics today to prevent pneumonia. He continues to take the nux, chelidonium, cardiacs, Nat sulf, calc Fluor & Ferrum Phos. He never started the Kali Phos. He sounds stronger but the test results and other symptoms don’t show any changes at this time. Thank you so much for all the recommendations and hopefully more improvements will manifest soon!
Best regards,
Sue K

Thank you Anuj for your response!
He has to order the Ars Alb 30.
To clarify, he should now take the Nat sulf, calc Fluor, & Ferrum Phos cell salts. Take the Ars Alb when it comes in. When breathing is resolved, restart chelidonium. No Nux or Carduus.
Thanks again!!

Hi!
My brother received results from his breathing test and he only has 19% capacity. The doctor said that the pneumonia from 5 months back is what worsened it.
Hopefully, the remedies can heal him from the inside out!

Thank you for the reassurance!!
The Ars Alb 30 will be delivered tomorrow.
He’s going for an ultrasound today to check for blood clots because his legs and genitals swelled worse a couple weeks ago and had to increase the prescribed water pill.
Does he move ahead with the Ars Alb and continued cell salts only? He won’t know the results of the ultrasound right away.
