Here is another interesting case from the same homoeopath of Karachi. The last date for sending replies to my e-mail box is June 10. Good luck …….

Those who responded to the earlier case – What was the remedy? – will receive the name of the remedy on June 2, Inshah Allah.

A case of continued headache

Mr. A., aged 38, medium-built, soft spoken, a civil engineer with a government department, consulted me on September 14, 2001, for the peculiar type of headache he had been having for the past one week.

It was a dull continued pain in the occiput with heavy eyes. Parietals were also slightly painful. There was no modality as to time or the circumstances causing aggravation or amelioration of the condition. Blood pressure was normal. Bowels moved normally. Appetite normal. Thirsty and drank a good deal, often and moderate quantity. Had been feeling tired for the past ten days or so. A sense of soreness all over the body. Normal body temperature.

Nature of duties involved field work. At the time of consultation, he was working on an assignment which was somewhat stressful. He was conducting a departmental enquiry regarding purchases made by his organization and the prices were alleged to be on the higher side. Before the assignment, he was quite well and there was no trouble but, he emphatically said, the assignment was not the cause of his trouble.

Also the organization he was working with was laying off its officers and workers through the so-called golden handshake scheme. But he was well off and the imminent retrenchment did not seem reason enough to have caused the above trouble as well

Due to the load of work, he had been following an improper sleeping routine during the past week - slept just for three and a half hours - from 1.30 a.m. to 5 a.m. – sleep was deep but not refreshing.

Four doses of ………… – morning and night – removed the trouble by the grace of Allah in less than four days. The patient continues to consult me on and off for himself and his family members.

Dear Members

The main-complaint is a headache, dull continued in occiput with heaviness of the eyes.
The aggravation-factor seems to be stress.

First, before thinking of remedies, the aggravation-factor should be removed, according to par.: 7 Org., as it might be the maintaining cause.
Then, the case should be retaken and then decided, whether intervention with homeopathic remedies is necessary or not.

Despite the above, the information as it stands is far too unspecific for a viable remedy selection, in fact a great number of remedies have brought out the main-complaint and therefore could be suitable.

The remark, that after X doses of remedy: ??????? the problem subsided does not mean, that the selected remedy has ‘’cured’’, as the disappearance of the symptoms could very well just coincide with the person leaving the stressful situation and returning to normal circumstances.

Thanks hans

you see all pakistani's are lurking the same thing and now they are bad. I love to be bad. aqeel said the case is not complete the symptoms are not clear odor is the most important factor in enuresis without taking those symptoms how that blunder doctor selected iodium is beyond my comprehension. This is mere try to discredit homeopathy by developing frienship and monoply at the board. one has to give justification for selection and cure. other wise i can say any remedy you will choose will cure the patient. Funny cured cases stories continured. :razz:

Since people have begun to talk about this case, I guess it's ok if I chime in too.

To me, the rubric that explains this case is:
Headaches, sleep, loss of sleep, from late hours.

Cocculus is the only "3" in this small rubric; it is also a 3 for Headaches, occiput.

Nux Vomica is also a contender, a "2" in the first rubric, a "3" in the second.

Nux scores higher than cocc. in the rubric
Thirst, extreme.

In the rubric, Thirst, general; they are tied at "2". So, it would be either nux or cocc. in my opinion.

The soreness of body, heavy eyes, are all common symptoms in sleep loss, not characteristic.

Ghazi, I think it's more interesting to everyone if we discuss the cases after a few days rather than just waiting to hear by email what the remedy was.

I should mention that Carbo veg. is also a possibility, as it is a 2 in the rubric, headaches from lack of sleep, a 3 in the rubric
headaches, occiput; it's not represented in
thirst, extreme; but, is in the "thirst" rubric; also, it is present in the rubric: Headache, constant; as is gels., which someone else guessed.

We all know gels. has the occipital headaches and heavy eyelids. Not known for thirst, though.

madam snoopy

here continued dull headace is causing sleep disturbance and not due to sleep disturbance the patient is feeling headache.

Gels is so close?
