Haemorrhoids, faecal incontinence, irritable bowel syndrome, gastroesophageal reflux 01001...Uruguay
A 74-year-old man with a 15-year history of bleeding haemorrhoids (which was so severe that he had to use pads) and faecal incontinence visited the practitioner on 20 June 2016. He had also been diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome IBS and gastroesophageal reflux just one month earlier.
He was treated with the following combo:
#1. CC3.2 Bleeding disorders + CC4.4 Constipation + CC4.6 Diarrhoea + CC4.10 Indigestion + CC12.1 Adult tonic…TDS
Patient was not taking any other medication for his problems. By 27 June bleeding stopped completely. There was 20% improvement in the symptoms of IBS. However, there was no improvement in the faecal incontinence.
On 13 July, the combo was changed to:
#2. CC4.2 Liver & Gallbladder tonic + CC4.8 Gastroenteritis + CC15.1 Mental & Emotional tonic + #1…TDS
The practitioner, on the guidance of her mentor, also provided information about anal muscle strengthening exercises for the faecal incontinence, to be practiced several times a day by the patient, which he did. On 19 August, patient experienced 90% improvement in the faecal incontinence and IBS, and was happily almost completely free of all his problems. He continued to take #2 TDS. On 17 January 2017 the dosage was reduced to BD for two weeks. On 31 January it was further reduced to OD. However he had a relapse of the bleeding. The dosage was immediately restored to BD, obviously it was too soon to reduce to OD. The bleeding stopped and the patient continued to do well with no relapse of any of his problems. He continues to take the remedy BD.
