course i did the repertorial analysis after giving the remedies. i think that Bell worked here.

A person was having a blood pressure reading of 160/110 inspite of taking the allopathic medicines for

40-65 age group. It was the winter season and sometimes there was much dust in the air due to winds. i
used the following rubrics to shortlist remedies. The indicated remedy for each patient visit was
confirmed from other presenting symptoms of the patient. The indicated remedy worked well in most of
the cases and therefore i decided to share this with you.

the service of his spiritual master. He complained of itching on his legs. He was thirstless. He was
inclined towards philosophical thinking. Sulphur 200 provided him complete relief. i voted in favor of
Sulphur irrespective of the fact that it couldn't top the chart. Though pulsatilla covers all rubrics here,

i gave him pulsatilla 30. It didn't help much. i gave him a dose of Bacillinum 200 followed by few doses of
Phosphorus 200 which gave excellent relief.
What makes totality of symptoms? We can see that here the remedies that worked don't top the
repertory chart. But these remedies do have influence over some of the symptoms. It means here
constitution is defined by those symptoms and not the ones i think to be more significant. This is one of
the major obstacle in deciding the homeopathic remedy. Patience and openness of mind help otherwise
we may panic.

doctor has told him that this condition is quite serious and it should be given due attention. i gave him

think that had i given him Aconite 200 he wouldn't have gone to the ENT specialist.

This is a very interesting case. A person who was undergoing training at a 30 day residential camp came
to me. His age was 50 and he came to me with a complaint of dim vision in the left eye. He said that the
complaint started recently. He also said that everything else is normal. He was given a single dose of
Natrum Mur 200. Next day he came and said that there was no relief. Now as he saw that some patients
are also referred to outside hospital for specialized treatment he said that he is actually suffering from
diabetes and he wants to check about diabetic retinopathy. He also complained of constipation. He was
given Argentum Nitricum 200 on the basis of following rubrics. He got overall better under the influence
of Arg Nit like got relief in constipation. As far as his diabetic retinopathy is concerned it will depend on
his seriousness to control his diabetes level. It will also need a long term homeopathic treatment. No

A person came to the medical section for treatment of his fever. He said that he was chilly and thirstless.
i asked him about his preference for medicines i.e. whether allopathy or homeopathy as the allopathy
doctors were not presently available at that time. He said that he doesn't know about all these things.
He never gets ill and he may take any medicine. i gave him Arsenic Alb 200. He was also given some
antibiotic+crocin. i did the repertorial analysis afterwards. i was ready with china 200 for his second visit.
He said that he felt good after taking only 2 doses of Arsenic Alb 200. He returned all allopathic
medicines which he said made him feel very uneasy (1st dose itself, then he didn't take any).

A 45 yo lady came to the ngo clinic. This clinic is operated in open in the sense that there is no privacy
for the communication. She said that she suffers from breast pain. She also gets burning sensation at
times in her breast. The pain starts 15 days before her menses, increases as menses draw closer. The
pain disappears with the start of menses. She is an active home maker and does all household work. She

has been to the leading homeopath for this problem. She gets relief from the medicine but there
patients have to get prior appointment and that takes her full day so she came to me. She also suffers
from hemorrhoids. She gets her menses early and the menstrual flow is normal.

A lady came to me for the treatment of her alcoholic husband. Her hub works as an accountant and
does petty accounting jobs. She said that when he drinks he keeps talking with her until late night. He
doesn't scold or abuse her but he goes on talking and talking. Natrum Mur 200 was given in water and
that settled his talking after drinks. Many remedies were tried to take him off the habit of drinking but
so far no remedy has succeeded. Many remedies have partial effect but that effect can't be clearly
attributed to the remedy. All the remedies are given to him without his knowledge.

An obese person 45 yo came to me accompanied by his roommate. The roommate said that we are
staying in a dormitory. This gentleman snores so badly that it has become a problem for all his
roommates. The gentleman said that he is physically fit. He likes sweets a lot. He can't compromise on
having sweets. He is very lively and happy always. He was given Calc Carb 200 bd for few days followed

by sac lac. The reperting was done before his second visit was due. Calc worked well for him and his
roommates could sleep peacefully. So there was no need to revise the remedy. He was given lot of sac
lac and few doses of calc carb 200 to be taken on relapse.

A young boy 23 yo came to me with complaints of recurring pimples. He was mild in his behavior. He
prefers cold surroundings. He has oily skin. He perspires much while exercising etc. Natrum Mur 1M
single dose followed by sac lac provided excellent relief to him in his pimples. It also helped him for his
perspiration. His skin doesn't get oily now. This is really surprising for me too as to how the oily skin can
change under the influence of the remedy. But it happens.

A 36 yo gentleman got excellent relief on hepar sulph for his chronic productive cough where antibiotics
could do nothing. He is a very irritable person and he just can't stand any strong worded criticism.
After a long time, he started having severe ear pain after being exposed to cold air. He said that he will
go for herbal treatment (which he read in a book) as he is already discontented with allopathy but won't
even follow homeopathy now. He narrated about his herbal experiments when he came to me. He said
that he went to ENT specialist. The specialist diagnosed that he has hole in the ear drum. The specialist
gave him antibiotics which resulted in mouth sores. Now this he can't support that for partial relief from
one complaint other complaint is inflicted on him.
Merc Sol 200 bd for 3 days gave him excellent relief.

A 50 yo gentleman came to me with the complaint of stiffness in extremities in the morning. He has
many lipomas on his back and abdomen. He also has many warts all over his body. He talks a lot and
remains in the state of exhilaration. He helps poor and needy people to his level best though he himself
doesn't have much resources. Thuja 1M relieved him of his morning stiffness within few days. He also
got relief in his skin discoloration on his legs over a year. But his lipomas and warts remained though
there was no increase over 2 years. Thuja 1M was repeated after long intervals.

A 30 yo lady came to me with complaint of fever and body pain. She works as a maid. She asked me
whether i don't have homeopathic dilutions instead of pills? Dilutions work faster in her opinion. She is
coming to a nominal fee clinic and expecting highest possible expenditure to be borne by the physician.
She has scanty menses. She desires cold surroundings. She is thirstless. She has a history of low blood
pressure. Many mind rubrics were applied (read below) to account for her behavior as rarely do we get
a direct rubric!! Pulsatilla 200 bd for 3 days provided her excellent relief.

A 15 yo girl came to me with her parents. Her mother told me that the child remains alone and doesn't
mix up with her friends, rather she doesn't have any friends. She is not at all enthusiastic about her life
like other young people. She has very irregular menses. This time she couldn't get her menses for many
months. Even the allopathic treatment didn't help. She is a fat girl. She was given a single dose of
Graphites 1M followed by placebo. She was also asked to take a herbal remedy (rajah pravartini vati)
until she gets her menses. She got her menses within few days. Her mother reported that the girl
appears to be more lively now. i asked them (parents) to provide her good support and care to sustain
her liveliness.

A 28 yo man came to me with a complaint of anxiety with palpitations. He works as a construction
worker. He got his ECG done at the govt hospital which was normal. He was not working due to
palpitations as he worried about something serious happening. In the past he was treated successfully
for his recurring abscess in arm pits with Silicea 200. He showed scant regard to me while meeting and
talked in a very informal tone which was not warranted. Lycopodium 200 bd for 3 days provided
excellent relief.

A 57 yo gentleman suffered from throat paralysis after developing a clot in his head. He is always very
warm to his relations belonging to the upper class. He is too hard for those who are poor and
educationally deprived. He was an alcoholic until paralytic attack and his father also died of alcoholism.
All his brothers are alcoholic. He loves socialising and people having treat at his home. Swallowing water
is very difficult for him. He can swallow solid easily. He has lost his voice totally. He gets pain in his back
due to part time office work. He also feels normal otherwise but overall he has become weak. He has
been given Lachesis and the results are awaited. There is a possibility that this person will contact a
reputed homeopath instead of listening to me. Still the case taking and remedy selection has been
shared with you. Please share your experience on management of paralysis cases.

A 25 yo unmarried gentleman came to me. He said that he had epileptic attacks in childhood. He is on
the homeopathic treatment. He didn't have any epileptic attack after starting homeopathic treatment.
He told further that he belongs to another city and won't be able to contact his homeopath. He feels
that he is about to have an epileptic attack. He was given three doses of Hyoscyamus 200 followed by
Kali Phos 6x. He did well for the whole stay in the city. He visited me while going back to know the name
of remedies.

A 44 yo lady comes to me regularly for her various complaints. Initially when she came for cold and
cough she generally did better on Nux Vomica. Later she started asking remedies for her gynec
complaints. She did better for her profuse and debilitating leucorrhoea on calc carb 200. At times when i
found her behaving like a typical home maker when she presented with a complaint of delayed menses
or even leucorrhoea i gave her Pulsatilla 200 and she did well. Sepia 200 also helped at times when she
presented herself in a complaining mood. She also did well for her recurring urticaria on Sulphur 200. It
cured her chronic complaint of urticaria. When i did analysis for presenting her case i could see that i
never gave her merc sol. i will see how that affects her if it is found indicated for her conditions when
she visits in time to come. Some other details about her. She dresses at her best. Sometimes she
complains about her relations. There is a mark of pride in her bahavior. At times when she complains
she says that her leucorrhoea gets worse while passing urine. She doesn't like cold surroundings but
prefers open air. She is an obese lady.

A 42 yo lady came to me with a complaint of painful growth of her thumb joint (where the thumb joins
the hand). It was accompanied by stiffness of thumb. This has happened after she injured her hand in an
accident. She was given rhus tox 30, arnica 30 and symphytum 200 for one month. i opt for repetition of
remedies in such cases and also go for combination remedies. There was 50% decrease in the growth.
The pain and stiffness reduced by 90%. After one month she was given calc fluor 30 alongwith the
aforesaid remedies in repeated doses . Symph 200, rhus tox 30 + arnica 30, calc fluor 30 were given in
alternation. Pain and stiffness went away completely. The growth reduced by 70%. Later she was asked
to take silicea 200 and calc phos 200 as weekly dose in alternation for one month which made her
thumb joint almost normal.
This is one of my earlier cases where i never did any repertorial analysis. When i did the analysis for
presenting the case, i could see many other remedies coming at the top, but i do think that the remedies
that i used worked very well as specific remedies. This case raised my image in the eyes of my patients
and it also reinforced my commitment to homeopathy. Today also i believe in organ and function
remedies. Other polychrest remedies that occupy top positions on the repertorial chart should be used
only on their clear cut indications. They can't be used as specific remedies.

This is a case of a 52 yo gentleman. He is known as a good administrator and he maintains warmth in all
his social relations. He fell down from his scooter and injured his leg. He got treatment from an
orthopaedic surgeon who ruled out any fracture after doing all tests. He didn't have any swelling in the
morning. He got swelling by evening increasing gradually throughout the day. He was comfortable
during rest and the pain increased by movements. i gave him bryonia 30 in repeated doses in the
beginning for 15 days which did nothing substantial. Then rhus tox 30 + arnica 30 was given for 15 days.
It provided 25% relief. Phosphorus 200 was given every week and rhus + arn was continued daily. This
protocol provided him complete relief over one and half months.

A two yo baby was brought to me by his father for the complaint of severe itching. The baby has made
many rashes and marks on his body due to itching. There was no relief from allopathic medication. He
appeared to be very cheerful. He was smiling and with affectionate looks. His father said that he likes to
eat food without any interference from others. He arranges the palate himself and doesn't like others
feeding him. Libertinism and admonition agg rubrics are taken to reflect his aforesaid behavior. i agree
that the meaning will change when the rubrics are applied to grown up people. He did well on Pulsatilla
30 in repeated doses. When there was relapse of complaint he was given Pulsatilla 200 od for few days
which cured his urticaria. The baby prefered cold surroundings and open air.

A 57 yo gentleman came to me with a complaint of watery discharge from eye. He suffered from
paralysis of right eye some 4 years back and he has this complaint since then. He feels better overall
when he sits on a chair with his head bending backwards. Senega 200 fortnightly doses over 2-3 months
provided him excellent relief. The watery discharge was stopped and the paralytic affection was greatly
relieved.

A 51 yo gentleman came to me with complaint of right sided inguinal hernia. He works on daily wages
and generally lacks confidence. He said that he doesn't have any other option but to go for surgery. He
said that the government hospital is full of appointments and so his surgery can't be performed until
next month. He said that his abdomen is always distended which worsens in the afternoon. He was
given Lycopodium 1M. It relieved his abdominal distension and he got so much relieved that he didn't go
for the surgery. He says that the hernia is not that troublesome abdominal distension was, so he doesn't
see any need for the surgery.
Rub 1 - Abdomen; hernia; inguinal region; right
Rub 2 - Abdomen; distension; evening
Rub 3 - Mind; confidence; want of self
