Two months ago I discussed a case in my ‘day in the life of a homeopath’ series.
A tragic case: Female, 2 years old. Developing normally until 14 months (shortly after the MMR vaccine), after this she started suffering progressive muscular weakness. This started in her feet and travelled upwards. When I saw her, she was completely floppy. Unable to hold her head up, she collapsed on the floor, unable to feed or swallow (fed by a tube), very bad constipation (no muscular power to expel stool). BAD prognosis from the medics.
First prescription: Conium 6c every morning and evening + Helleborus 30c twice a week for 4 weeks.
I was pleased with this prescription, they matched the symptoms well.
Result: Absolutely nothing. In fact her condition has continued to deteriorate.
Analysis: When the well-indicated fails to act, there’s usually a blockage...or a maintaining cause. I believe this condition was the result of vaccination, let’s see if this is the blockage.
Prescription: Vacc detox 30c + Causticum 30c nightly for 4 weeks
I really hope we see improvement (a miracle!) in this case. I can’t imagine how the parents must be feeling and mainstream medicine can offer nothing that could help (except grim predictions that their daughter will not live for very long).
Watch this space.
