Hives 03608...South Africa
A 57-year-old female, diagnosed with hypothyroidism in 2001, had been taking allopathic medicine (Levothyroxin 50 mg) daily. From March 2020, she developed intense itching, red hives on her legs, back, arms, and neck, occurring three times a week. The symptoms would get relieved within 5 minutes if she immediately applied the prescribed ointment (Allergex). Her doctor suspected these hives were caused by Levothyroxin, so she felt stressed. However she was excited when she was introduced to vibrionics by her niece, a practitioner.
On 8 Dec 2021, she was given:
#1. CC21.3 Skin allergies…BD in coconut oil for external application
#2. CC12.1 Adult tonic + CC15.1 Mental & Emotional tonic + #1…6TD for 3 days followed by TDS
On 26 Dec, the patient reported feeling significantly calmer; the hives occurred twice in the previous week with no itching and vanished within five minutes of applying the oil, eliminating the need for allopathic ointment. On 10 Feb 2022, she reported only one episode of rash in the past week. She expressed feeling much more confident and relaxed.
In the next two months by 13 Apr, there was only one episode. The hives disappeared immediately upon using the oil, which she referred to as the “magic oil remedy”. The dosage of #1 and #2 was reduced to OD. On 19 May, she conveyed that there was no trace of hives in the last month; so #1 was stopped and #2 was reduced to 3TW. She remained symptom-free by July, remedies were discontinued as she relocated abroad.
As of June 2024, she continues thyroid medication; her skin remains normal with occasional mild hives lasting about a minute and resolving on their own.
