Cardiomyopathy and Homoeopathy

Cardiomyopathy and Homoeopathy

Mr. Atiq-ur-Rahman Qureshi, a mechanical engineer by profession visited me with severe Chest pain, palpitation and Dyspnea (Shortness of breath) in July, 2009. On enquiring, he told that the pain did not travel to the left arm and also there was no sweating. The pain was intensified especially after taking meals and on movement. I administered Bryonia-200 and Arsenicum alb. -30 to be taken alternately 4 times a day. After 3-4 days, he reported a little bit relief but was not satisfied at all. Resultantly, he moved to some allopath physician who asked him to go for ultrasound and ETT. The ultrasound report from AFIC, Rawalpindi diagnosed Cardiomyopathy (Heart muscle disease) whereas during ETT, the total recorded exercise time was 05:35 minutes. On the abovesaid findings, Mr. Atiq was advised by the Allopath physician to take one tablet each of Loprin and Tenormin daily. Unfortunately, these medicines could not bring relief to the ailing engineer. Hopelessly, he again contacted me in September, 2009 with all the reports and requested for re-taking the case with full symptoms. As his Hajj flight was approaching near, he was anxious for his early recovery so as to perform the rituals of Hajj in a proper manner. During taking the symptoms, I doubt that it was the oesphagus that was causing pain during and after meals. I gave him 2 doses of Phosphorus-1M to be taken on alternate days which gave him a considerable relief in pain. Then Spigelia-3X and Strophanthus-3X + Crataegus-Q were given for one week. The problems of palpitation and dyspnea were improved. Next, 2 more doses of Phosphorus-1M were administered for complete recovery of the chest pain before his departure to Saudi Arabia for Hajj. On his return from Hajj, he reported that there was no problem except the usual complaint of throat irritation and cough, etc. Presently, he is on 10 drops of Strophanthus-3X + Crataegus-Q twice a day and Al-Hamdulilla feeling much better.
