Indigestion, headache 11606...India
Soon after qualifying, the practitioner treated her 32-year-old maid who suffered from gas and acid reflux with burning sensation and mild stomach pain every other day for the past four to five years. As the patient had to work in several households to support her four children, she did not pay attention to her health or diet and took no treatment for her ailments. Two months ago, as her domestic situation became worse due to her drunken husband, she started having headaches almost every day. Sometimes the whole head would spin and at other times, just on one side.
On 12 March 2019, the practitioner gave the following remedy:
#1. CC4.10 Indigestion + CC11.3 Headaches + CC11.4 Migraines + CC12.1 Adult tonic + CC15.1 Mental & Emotional tonic…TDS
The patient was advised to drink more water, include vegetables and fruits in her diet, avoid fried food and maintain regular meal timings as far as possible. After one week she got mild relief but when she came to the practitioner’s house to work, she started to feel giddy and had to stop the work.
She was immediately given:
#2. CC10.1 Emergencies…a dose every 10 minutes for 1 hour; after that she became normal, so #2 was stopped.
One week later, the patient reported 100% relief from gas, acid reflux and burning sensation but only 80% relief from headache. After another week, the headache also vanished. On 12 April 2019, the dosage was reduced to OD. The patient did not want to taper down the dosage slowly, so continued at OD for 2 months before stopping. In June 2019 the practitioner moved to another area, so the patient was no longer working for her. As of June 2020, the patient was keeping healthy with no recurrence of any symptoms.
