Fear 11581...India
A 35-year-old woman had profuse menstrual bleeding in May 2020. Having always had normal menses, this was an unusual and frightening experience for her. Allopathic treatment over two months resolved this issue. But the bleeding episode triggered in her fear and anxiety of practically everything eg, fear for her family, her future, etc. She started to relate the TV shows she watched to her own life. Her fears soon became irrational and excessive and her anxiety intense. She consulted a couple of psychiatrists; they prescribed anti-depressants which did not help her and were, hence, stopped. On 5 Nov 2020 her mother-in-law contacted the practitioner who gave:
CC8.1 Female tonic + CC8.7 Menses frequent + CC15.1 Mental & Emotional tonic + CC15.2 Psychiatric disorders + CC17.2 Cleansing…TDS
In addition, the practitioner counselled the patient over the phone, instilled courage in her, and assured her that she would be completely fine. After a week, the patient called to convey that her fears remained the same. She was advised to continue the remedy for at least another three weeks. After just two weeks she called the practitioner again to say that there was no improvement. He told her that he would give her another remedy. However, he repeated the same remedy as he felt that she would be fine with this and asked her to take it for one month. As she appeared to be a little anaemic he advised her to eat pomegranate and dates every day to improve her Hb level.
On 10 Feb 2021, the patient reported that her fears were completely gone and she was now feeling perfectly fine. The dosage was reduced to OD for 10 days, thereafter to OW for a few weeks until the pills were exhausted. As of Jan 2022, she continues to be well.
