I need some vitamin. My disease is better now. (Plat ₳ Sul) Do you think you can help me?

Shrieking, Help for D: Why did not you take any treatment before? P: I don't take any medicine easily also I am not very fond of visiting a doctor. Usually I try to manage my problem by myself. I take natural treatment like I take herbal tea if I get a cold or apply some herbal ointment if I get headache. It is only when I feel that it is not possible for me to manage without the medicine then only I go for the homeopathic medicine

A sensation, a feeling from within (through sensory nerves) is conveying that the system has started asking for help. Earlier to this it was thought that a little aid in the form of tea, milk or some home made stimulants will suffice to tide over the crisis. But the trouble could not be stopped or checked and ultimately the need for help , 'save', 'save', has reached. I am not feeling well, since many days. But I did not take it seriously in the beginning. I thought that with the help of some aid in the form of tea or hot drinks things will be okay. But now after so many days I feel that the situation is going out of my hand and I must get the proper medicine otherwise the disease will pull me down.

Delusion, help calling for

No.3 A patient, a school teacher says, “Dr., I am feeling weak. I cannot do my work. I keep putting it off for an hour or a day. I need to lie down to regain my strength. Please give me a tonic. I should tell you that I used to have vitamin injections routinely every 6 months.”

Without attaching importance to this symptom, I prescribed for her on the basis of her other symptoms. Every complaint was removed except this.

After about two months she again appeared and said, “I feel weaker. I don’t think I can go on working for another day. The exams are coming up and I can’t even entertain the idea of taking leave. Since I am under your treatment, I have come to ask for your help; if you can do something, it will be alright, otherwise I’ll have to have the vitamin injections because I just can’t cope.

No.2. A lady had spots on her face and was much perturbed. She said, “Dr., do anything you like but you must help me get rid of these spots because I feel very small when I meet people.” I enquired “what type of people do you hesitate to meet?” She replied, “ It’s not just anyone, but only people who I feel are superior to me, where I feel my husband’s or my own dignity is at

stake

No.3. A schizophrenic patient says that he has knowledge of beings belonging to the invisible

world. He is in contact with them. His problem is that they do not speak but only give signals

which he cannot decipher. He wants help in interpreting such signs.

In his own words, “I do not want anything for myself. I am interested in the public good and the

good of my country. In this connection I have met many VIPs. Some of them branded me as a

mental patient. At first, I accepted the doctor’s opinion about me and took tranquilizers for a

while. But I found thereafter that these thoughts of mine did not disappear. I came to the

conclusion that it is not a disease – a delusion - but real, factual thinking.”

He mentioned the names of certain other prominent men in the field of science etc. and said,

“They gave me a patient hearing and promised to call me back and help me.”

In conclusion he said, “Actually, I am at a loss to know who I can suitably approach (GROPING,

as if in the dark). Since my problem concerns the mind and you are doing research in this field, I

thought I should consult you as well and you may be able to help. (SHRIEKING, aid for)” He did not trust his wife and father who were the only members in the family staying with him.

He thought they had betrayed him by leaking his secrets (DELUSION, wrong suffered has)

Out of these symptoms, I decided on two symptoms which seemed to claim predominance. But

one of these had the edge over the other, i.e. the rubric Fear, betrayed of being predominating

over the rubric, shrieking, aid for. Therefore, he was given Hyos 30.

The medicine did a good job. It ended his hostility towards the members of his family. He

stopped talking about divorcing his wife. His behaviour with his father changed. He allowed his

in-laws into the house again etc.

This case came to me on July 4, 1988. Till September 15, 1998, he remained on only three

doses of Hyos 30. Many of more of the peculiarities in his attitude became normal. For

example, he had a tendency to stay in bed as long as he was in the house. Now he started

going shopping every day for groceries and other necessities. Also, he passed through other mild phases of acute illnesses like running nose, sore throat,

cough and low fever which appeared and disappeared on their own.

What remained to be cured was his DELUSION that he was in communication with the invisible

beings.

Hyos removed ' Groping, as if in the dark'. Before taking this medicine, he did not know whom

to contact for the purpose of aid. He also could not trust people. Now he could and his fear of

being betrayed had gone. At this stage, new and persistent symptoms emerged:

DISCONCERTED: IRRITABILITY, pains during; and SHRIEKING, aid for.

He said reluctantly "I feel I do not have enough energy left to continue my present pursuits. I

think somebody should take over from me and relieve me of the burden."

On October 14, 1988, Ignatia 30 was administered. After a few days, he came down with

typhoid fever. Years ago, as a school boy, he had suffered from the same fever and his mental

problem dated from this event.

In sum, the patient improved in every respect including fever. The stage of high fever (104oF –

100oF) etc. ended after about a month. Now it was between 99oF – 100oF with some weakness

etc. But the people around the patient were not understanding, and would not appreciate the

positive aspect of the fever. I found that contrary to my instructions, he was being fed rich food

like meat etc. I advised them to deal with the fever; error in diet could result in very severe

relapses which would prolong his recovery.

Under allopathic treatment, the fever came down; his original mental states began to reappear.

I was approached for some medicine to keep his mental condition under control, to be used

alongside the allopathic medicine. I told them it would be better if he came back to me after

that allopathic treatment was over. They did so but discouraged when they learnt that the

fever might return under my renewed treatment.

You may be surprised to find reference to remedies like Hyos & Ignatia etc. in a discussion on

Platina. Actually, I have purposely included them for comparison in order to help you to avoid

making such mistakes in your own search for the right remedy.

Platina could have been given in this case as a first prescription on the basis of the fact that he

came to me with the impression that I was a learned person, and could be of assistance to him,

and so his behaviour with me was respectful because he was hoping for some special

treatment, whereas, on the other hand he was contemptuous of his family who he thought had

no caliber of the appreciation of his lofty ideas.
