A married woman, 35 yrs old,
was suffering from chronic headaches for 10 years. Pains are severe 2-3 days
every week but mild pains remain always. She does not feel head light anytime
since a long time.
Pains are one sided, mostly
on right side, aggravates from anger, noise, exposure to sun, mostly at
forenoon around 11 AM, better by
pressure. She eats lot much salt and salty things. She wants to lie down
quietly and silently when headache. Always lie on painful side which somewhat
relieves the pain. Headache is associated with vomiting which does not relieve.
Patient has hypothyroidism
for few years and is on Thyronorm 50. Her uric acid levels
fluctuate off and on and her physician prescribe medicines to keep it under
normal range accordingly.

Part 1
Part 2
Prescription:
Phosphorus 200 three doses with interval of half hour,
prescribed with sac lac for fifteen days. Marked irritability during headache
and very much desire for salt with lean thin constitution of patient was the
reason to prescribe Phosphorus.
March 12, 2013
Pain is better, frequency and
severity reduced. Sac Lac prescribed for ten days.
March 26, 2013
Pains are mild, less
frequent, easily bearable but not stopped. Sac Lac is prescribed for fifteen
days.
April 22, 2013
Head pain from April 21,
started from morning, very very severe with vomiting.
Phosphorus 200 one dose prescribed with sac lac for ten
days.
May 2, 2013
Pain is better but a mild
pain always remains in head which is not easy to locate. Sac Lac is prescribed
for fifteen days
May 10, 2013
Pain started again in
forehead, vertex after exposure to sun. With pain in lower limbs, thighs which
aggravates in walking. Feel very much weak. Irritability, sadness and
hopelessness are there. Insomnia.
Phosphorus 200 one dose was
prescribed.
May 20, 2013
Pains are improved, less frequent
but patient does not feel normal at all. Mild pains are always there.
On evaluating, it is found
that earlier prescription was partially similar which somewhat relieved the
symptoms but not cured the patient. Desire for salt and irritability during
headache are given unnecessary weight age in evaluation.
Preference is given to hasty
speech, profound sadness, uric acid diathesis. And one more important point is
that, head pain exposure from sun is found in Sepia and Not in Phosphorus. In
my Radar Version it is a wrong entry.
Prescription:
Sepia 30 three doses prescribed with thirty minutes
interval with sac lac for fifteen days.
Patient has not reported for
a long time.
July 20, 2013
Patient came for his son’s
sickness and told that in last two months, she has no headache, angry mood,
irritability, sadness, ball sensation, insomnia, pain in lower limbs. She feels
quite well. Head is light, no heaviness and even she does not feel any ‘mild’
thing there in head now. Even desire for SALT is gone which mislead earlier for
wrong medicines.
Amazingly, her thyroid
profile come under normal range and her physician
reduced her Thyronorm 50 to
Thyronorm 25 daily. Her uric acid level come under normal range.
