The document discusses several case studies treated with homeopathic remedies. It also provides insights into differentiation of remedies based on characteristics like types of anger. The ultimate goal of treatment mentioned is not just alleviation of symptoms but bringing about overall improvement in the patient.

Sulphur-iodatum was chosen for the child with necrotizing pneumonia because it matched the symptoms of being right sided, fast acting and destructive, mimicking the rampant progression of the disease. The child also had hot palms indicating hypermetabolism.

Some of the differences in types of anger mentioned between remedies are: Lycopodium - anger not so much on self but others; Mercurius - anger on others and retaliation; Nux vomica - anger from disturbance and interruption.

We need a remedy which is very near to Lyc.


Timid but angry child;
Not conscientious (pushes brother from mother´s lap) but inquisitive (learning)
In this case we cannot rely on thirst/thirstless, because kidneys are affected. (In cases of
thyroid thermals should not be considered).

P: Sulphur – it’s a hot remedy, has anger on himself and is timid;


PV: We can understand that it is an angry remedy, but we have to look for the type of
anger. The type of anger differentiates the remedies.

Differentiation of angry remedies:

Lycopodium
Anger not so much on himself, more on others – inferiors (smaller ones), or on things
Anger on superiors is let out on inferiors
Anger on himself, but would not hurt himself (will not beat on a hard surface in anger, but
on a soft pillow)
Will keep the anger in mind (in the evening mother did something against his wish, he
does not forget during the night  Anger and irritability in the morning)
Example: PV had a friend, when he was angry, he spent his anger on his nails, pressing and picking; he did
not want to show the anger on others out of fear to be beaten, but it had to come out somewhere where it did
not hurt.

Mercurius
Anger on others, retaliation, rebel.

Nux-vomica
Anger because of disturbance and interruption, will not tolerate any nonsense

Antimonium crudum
Anger at any little attention which is given

Anger from caressing – Cina, Tub, sanic, chin, nit-ac


Anger consoled when – Ign, Nat-m, Ars, cham, Nux-v, sep, sil
Anger conversation from – tarent-c (cannot bear to listen to anyone), puls (because she
cannot say what she wants and because she doesn´t get
enough attention)
Anger with red color of face – bell, bry, cham, Nux-v, Lyc, stram (cardio-vascular
remedies, constriction, congestion)
Anger with pale color of face – staph, Nat-m, con, Carbo-v, petr, Ars, plat (Carbons,
because there is relaxation, nervous system is affected,
blood pressure gets down)
Anger on waking, about previous night – Kali-c, lyc, lach, tub, sanic, china, staph
Anger about pains, past events, tears himself to pieces – Sulph

Dr. Vijayakar shows a video clip of one of the “Hope for the Hopeless” – Camps.
The people stand in a long line, cueing up not for train tickets or anything else, but for
homoeopathic treatment. Such is the popularity which the camps are gaining. They come
in big cars and each car brings in 8-10 patients. When one patient from 200 km away is
cured, he tells all the other children and parents to come to the camp. This is the power of
results. There is no advertisement at all, but still everybody comes.
They come from far and wide and wait at least 24 hours in advance; they wait patiently for
their treatment because they know that Homoeopathy is their only hope.

Inside, there is utter chaos, it is crowded with patients. Despite not having any privacy or
tranquility the students and doctors can prescribe. They cannot get any oral history from
the patients (cerebral palsy, mental retarded, not able to understand, not able to talk, etc.),
and yet Homoeopathy works. You see, Homoeopathy is not only meant for people who
can answer questions. A lot of Homoeopaths depend upon the patient answering
questions – but this is pure Sycosis. The patient´s answers are a projection.

In the camps they do psoric prescriptions: observation – eyes see – mind perceives –
intellect prescribes. This is how the students are trained to do it. The results in the camps
are 60-65 %! This is the power of true Homoeopathy. The limit and the scope is only the
Homoeopath himself, if we cannot get results, it is our limitation, not the limitation of
Homoeopathy. We need to learn how to prescribe genetically and the results are fantastic.

Mind and disposition:


He takes time to mix with new people.
Will not allow strangers to lift him immediately
He will always want family members to be along with him.
He will avoid going to dark places.
Likes books since 5 months of age, will never tear books.
Anger: When he gets angry he would occasionally throw his specs.
He does not hit but cries in anger.
He always stays away from cousins who are mischievous and if they come near him he
will start crying.
While playing also he will take care of himself that he does not get hurt.

A child´s attraction to books is very important, we take it as conscientious; esp. if the child
is only 6 months old and doesn’t know that there is knowledge in this world; this trait to be
attracted towards books, pencils, magazines, etc. is inherited, genetic and therefore very
important. Even in mentally retarded children we can see such traits; in spite of not
knowing anything they go towards books, paper and pencils more than they go towards
other toys; even if they tear it (Syphilis) we can take it – in Sycosis they will only look at it,
turn it around and around – observation is very important in such cases. Eyes do not see
what mind does not perceive.
Good boy – Remedies: Ars, Bry, Lyc, Iod, Ars-i, Aur, Aur-i, Nat-c, (Nat-m is more
responsible), Ferr, Ferr-i, Sil, Thuj, Stram, Ph-ac;
Those children are good boys, even if they are bad in tearing the books in syphilitic Miasm.
If nothing would have gone wrong in the womb, mother and child would not have been
traumatized; these children would have been conscientious and craving for knowledge.

P: Did you repeat the remedy at any time or was it only given once?
PV: No, we did not repeat the remedy at any time because development takes time and
generally we don’t repeat. Our medicines don’t cure, it is the patient who cures himself; we
have to stimulate the patient to grow and cure himself. If I see at one point the growth is
halted; there is no further progress – then I am justified in again stimulating him. You will
never find that: “Oh he talked well but now it is worse again” because in such cases once
you have stimulated the growth axis the progress cannot be returned. If it happens like
this, the remedy was wrong!
Example: A mental retarded child, not holding his neck properly gets a remedy; after two
months the parents are very happy because for some weeks he could hold his head very
nicely. But again since a few days he cannot hold it. You cannot blame it to a full moon or
anything else: this is the WRONG REMEDY! Don´t ever repeat if this is the case, the
remedy was artificially working on the muscles of the neck, trying to strengthen it = Sycosis
(it is like physiotherapy). What we want is: The patient´s growth axis, which has got
arrested, has to start again. And a human child, who´s growth axis has started properly,
does not need any remedy to strengthen his neck or his legs. It is an intricate mechanism
inside, which is at work. In the process of growth the growth axis has to be linear; it cannot
come and go; if this is the case, it was a sycotic remedy, a partial similimum only.

CASE 7:
Down´s syndrome
This boy was brought for treatment at the age of 17 yrs.
He could not speak clearly. Words were unclear, could not understand the meaning of
words. He did not grow in height after a certain age. He became stout and fat.
Mentally he had not grown at all.
His shortcomings were:
He was not independent. Depended for everything on his mother.
He had not learnt to look after himself. He could not take bath on his own. He had to be
taken to the toilet by mother as a routine.
He could not wear his clothes as he did not have the intelligence and understanding of
how to wear a pant or a shirt. He could not put buttons of his shirt correctly.
Intellect: He did not possess the aptitude to read or write. His parents tried to put him in
school but he did not show interest in learning even the alphabets. He could not write
or read his own name also. He could not identify an apple from a banana.
Memory: poor; he could not be sent by mother for buying things from market because
of his poor memory. He could not handle money. He could not remember any proper
names.
Communication and interaction: He was very friendly. In fact he is always with the
neighbors. Whole day he is visiting the neighbors and mingles with them very nicely.
The mother said that the whole neighborhood loves him.
His emotional state: H e is always happy, cheerful. Mother said she has never seen
him crying in the last 15 years. Nor does he get angry if things go against his will.
Whatever the circumstances he is calm, cool and happy. He does not get disturbed
even if mother is ill.
His sole interest was to wear the best possible dress. His dress was selected by him
but had to be put on by his mother. He refused to wear any ordinary clothes. They had
to be unique and exclusive. He loves to show-off. He likes to show-off in front of girls
and young ladies. He will purposely go and show his nice clothes to girls whether he
knows them or not.
He is in a world of his own. Always admiring himself in front of the mirror and very
happy to see himself. He is on the high and is humming continuously.

Dr. Prafull Vijayakar – Regensburg – 18.05.2012

He is very timid and is afraid of even small pups. He cannot go out on the road all by
himself. Even at this age of 17 he catches the finger of his mother wherever he goes. If
he sees any cat or dog he will hide behind his mother.
His hair have started falling in bunches. He has started balding from the top since last 8
months or so.
Thermals: HOT, thirsty
Milestones – delayed
Slow in speed
Video: look at him; even by Indian standards his clothes are very
“gody”. (Coming to a Camp, where all the poor people are, in
those clothes!) He had so much Sycosis; everything was “show”.
And it is very difficult to prescribe for a sycotic person, you tend to
slip anywhere! By this image, what will you prescribe?
Conium (Mania, wants to dress up in the best of cloths)!
Verat (I am the king, fronting wonderful cloths) – this would be a
perfect sycotic similimum – very dangerous!
When a patient is full of Sycosis shed all of it and go for syphilitic symptoms.
What is most syphilitic in this boy?
P: He goes to all the neighbors but not to his own home.
PV: Yes, he is not bothered about his mother, who cares so much for him; he is not
bothered about his home. How can we convert this in rubric form?
P: Indifference, apathy loved ones.
PV: Yes, this is one of the possibilities; another one is “buoyancy” (happy, not bothered
from anything, flowing on the water)
Indifference, apathy loved ones, to:
Acon, allox, ars, ars-I, bell, carb-v, carc, Fl-ac, HELL, kali-p, kali-sil, lil-t, merc, myric, nat-p,
nat-sil, PHOS, plat, SEP, Syph
+ Hot  ars-i, Fl-ac, merc, plat + Buoyancy  Fl-ac
 Flouric-acid C 200
He always wanted to show off to woman only; attraction towards woman, flirtatious.
Memory weak for names; Alopecia is also covered;
Always in an elated mood, ecstasy, always on the high (cann-i, cann-s, fl-ac);
When a person is not able to look after himself, he is imbecile (Fl-ac)

FU after 6 months :
He is still wearing such clothes; every time he wears different
clothes. He has started talking more, speech more clear, put on his
clothes by himself; hair is coming back now; he is bold enough to
go alone on the street; he goes to the market with a list and buys
things; he understands about money; so much improvement after 6
months!

FU after 1 year:
We can see that his clothes are more normal; He started
recognizing things, he even started studying, started reading and
writing his own name. He wants to learn (Psora). He has grown up
in height also.
He is no longer imbecile! The maturity has started; we can expect
him to grow up at least.

Dr. Prafull Vijayakar – Regensburg – 18.05.2012

His hands are hot to touch. (Indicates a fiery element inside, hypermetabolism, excessive
heat – Sulph, Iod, Sul-i, all Iods, Lach, Fl-ac, Merc-i, Bell, Tub, Ferr, (most of the remedies
who grow fast have also hot palms, so much of activity  hunger has to be there, fuel is
required)

We have to find a remedy which is right-sided, fast and destructive. The disease
progressed very fast; only 5 days from fever to necrotizing pneumonia and lung collapse!
The right lung started necrotizing; the disease was so rampant and fast – in an attempt to
defend itself, the body closed down the right lung (respiratory centre says: I don’t want to
have oxygen there, because the anaerobic condition will kill the bacteria).
Everything is a defense mechanism: in §74 Hahnemann says how the body first tries to
defend itself with spasm, sensitivity, etc. (Psora), then by contraction, dilatation, relaxation
or induration (Sycosis). Finally the body will destroy either the function or the organ itself to
save the whole (Syphilis).

X-ray: right lung completely collapsed, they


wanted to cut it out.

Repertorisation:
You need to pick the right rubrics, than everything is easy. If you have one locked door
and hundred keys, you won´t be able to open the door if you don’t find the right key. If you
have it, then it is simple, otherwise you have to try all the hundred keys. You may have
hundred symptoms also, but which to pick up is the art, that’s why Homoeopathy is called
science and art!
What belonged to the genetic was: growing too fast; “hunger agg.” is the sensitivity. Any
rubric which shows aggravation is important. Amelioration is not important (because it is
Sycosis) unless it is peculiar like magnetism amel. This person wants somebody else´s
touch and energy – he should be having his own energy – this is syphilitic;

What is the remedy?


P: I would have taken the rubric “cough, laughing agg.” that would lead to Phosphorus.
PV: But this is a particular, in this conditions we have to take the generals. “Cough,
laughing agg.” is only a sign that the trachea is irritated, it not necessarily belongs to the
constitution. That’s why I don’t take the rubric pneumonia, fever, or anything which has to
do with the disease. We have to aim for the genes.
You could think about Phos, because there is a lot of hugging and kissing, but he is hot,
and another thing is, he is not a very likeable child; he throws out his cousins, a
Phosphorus-child wants to give and take love (only in Syphilis there is indifference and
apathy to loved ones).
