A male patient aged about 30 yrs. came to me with complain of excessive perspiration.
He presented the following symptoms:
- Excessive perspiration, much in palms than in soles
- Excessive perspiration with pain even after washing and even in air conditioner.
- Perspiration ameliorated in open air.
- Dropping perspiration, Pain in joints of hands when sweat dropped
- Perspiration aggravates during anxietyand when ready to go somewhere
- Slight exertion aggravated
- Excessive thirst for large quantity of water at long interval
- Darkness under the eyes, colour brown
- Sleep semi-conscious with no dreams
- Anxiety starts from thinking about goint somewhere
- It is difficult to give impressions of finger print on fingerprint detecting devices due to perspiration.
On further query about any previous history of illness or any homoeopathic or other medicine taken ; the patient revealed that once he taken Acid-phos 200th for a period for he had sexual disturbances that he didn’t well explained to me. I again asked for it. “ What then happened after taking that medicine ?” He then replied “ The medicine worked good that my problems completely vanished.”
Then I asked that when the problem of perspiration started ? He replied, “Almost two months after getting relieved from the sexual problems.”
Then I finished asking questions and let him go and told to meet me next day. I took his current problems as :
- Perspiration excessive, much in palm than in sole
- Perspiration excessive even after washing the hand, even in air condition
- Sweats dried in open air
- Discolouration, brown around eyes.
- Excessive perspiration with excessive thirst of large quantity of water at long interval
- Excessive perspiration causing heaviness in hand when sweats dropping
- Perspiration on slight exertion
- Anxiety associated with perspiration
- Sleep – semiconscious
- Sleep – long
- Dreams – Unremembered
- Then I tried to get to the simillimum by the help of repertorisation. After repertorisation Bryonia was the choice of remedy.
It was given as :
04-03-2013
- Bryonia 30 x D x H.S.
- Rubrum 30 x 5 gtt x T.D. x P.C.
- Saclac 30 x 5 gtt x T.D. x P.C.
- Phytum 30 x 5 gtt x T.D. x P.C.
After 4 days of administration of Bryonia, his previously treated sexual problem by Ph-ac. re-appeared.
He then approached me that there is something going wrong. After hearing this, I realized and witnessed the recurrence and reappearance of the palliated symptom. I did nothing, I left it be go on…
On the 6th day of administration of Bryonia the sexual problem of the patient again disappeared. I continued the patient on the placebo.
