Dear colleagues,
I need your help as I am having difficulties with the treatment of a child.
The child is five years old. During the first consultation (01.11.2001) his mum complained that the child has a fear of darkness, dogs and ghosts and that he can never stay alone even in the next room. He falls asleep only with light on. He frequently wakes up at night screaming, staring at one point and it is impossible to make any contact with him. He is very disobedient, offends his sister and he fights.He can't stand water on his head. When he sleeps he covers his head with his blanket. He is very hot and easily sweats.
According to his mother he grew and developed as a healthy child. Half a year before he had been ill with German measles with a high temperature. During this period and for two months after he had enuresis. He hardly ever catches a cold.
On the basis of this, the child was given a single dose of Stramonium 10m. During the first month the situation was aggrevated - aggression and fears became stronger. There were hallucinations (he saw monsters).It lasted for 5 days. Then there was purulent tonsilitis with a temperature of 39.5 for 5 days, It was not treated. During the following 6 months a smooth improvement of his psychological and emotioal condition was seen. 6 months later the child was in a good condition but thirst appeared.
As their older daughter suffers from diabetes, his mum checked the blood sugar level in the boy. It was high. In the morning 10, in the evening 29.
I have the following questions:
1. Could the use of Stramonium result in diabetes?
2. What is the homeopathical point of view on this?
3. What should the further treatment of the child be?
4. What can I explain to the parents, who believe that it is a result of the homeopathic treatment?
5. Was it the correct remedy for the child?

The child is curently under my treatment.

Best regards
