Vertigo, Cough, Cramps, Grief & Sleep Issues treated with Homeopathy

Case Study 1

Presenting complaints
73 year old Sally came into the clinic with fluid in her middle ear which was causing her to feel dizzy. She had had an operation to install grommets in her ears which had helped but the problem still persisted. It was while she was laying in bed in the evenings that she felt the most dizzy.
Sally was also getting cramps in her feet, calves and fingers from time to time, she experienced dry eyes, yet they would start to water when the air became cold, and this cold air would also bring on a rough barking cough that had been persistent for an extended period.

Tragically, it had been almost a year since the passing of her granddaughter, and she was still experiencing quiet significant feelings of grief, as well as worrying about her children, especially the parent of her deceased granddaughter. Sally had been having some difficulty sleeping and was taking some over the counter medications to help her with sleep.
After assessing Sallys face, coupled with taking all her symptoms into account, I selected Phos 30 as a homeopathic remedy to be taken once a day and to follow up with me in a months time.

Results at one month followup
At the one month followup Sally said she was very pleased with the progress. The fluid in her ear was totally gone along with the vertigo / dizziness. The barking cough she no longer experienced, and the cramping in her feet / calves  and fingers was significantly reduced. Sally said that since she started taking the homeopathic medicine, it had helped her feel more settled with her grieving of her granddaughter, and she now felt more calm and more at peace with the situation. Sally’s sleep had improved and she no longer needed to use the over counter sleep aid she had been using for some time, and was having good quality restorative sleep using the homeopathic remedy alone.
One negative thing Sally noticed was the last couple of days she had been waking up with a sore neck/shoulder, yet it resolved shortly after waking with movement, which I feel was caused by the healing process of her middle ear. Sally continued with the same prescription for another month.
 
Results at two month followup
Next month when I saw Sally for her second follow-up she seemed really pleased with how she was travelling. The fluid in her ear, along with the vertigo had not returned, neither had the barking cough. The new issue of the neck/shoulder pain from our last followup session had fully resolved a couple of days after our last followup session, The cramping in her feet / calves and fingers was still improving and her sleep was still really good. Sally also had bone on bone osteoarthritis in her knee which she had been living with for 20 years, yet she said she felt the homeopathic remedy had helped with the pain in her knee also, she had just been for a long walk and her knee was not sore that day.
 
Case discussion
Using natural homeopathic medicine we were able to help support Sally’s body to be able to heal it’s self from conditions that western medicine and surgery were unable to treat as effectively as Sally would have liked. She now has a good level of relief where she doesn’t experience any symptoms from a range of her presenting complains, with medicine that in 200 years of use have proved to have no side effects, and which only cost her $10 for a month’s supply.
