Related Rubrics

Examples
1
  • A patient commented that even the most common problems like Cough or Cold that lasts for more than 2
  • days, makes him feel that he has developed something serious like Cancer, AIDS or even worse.
  • The above lines show the patient's apprehension about his health triggered by his existing symptoms
  • He further added that he was a well-respected member known for his caring attitude, good behavior, or social activities etc of his community. He was highly regarded and greatly trusted. He was also concerned that his suffering will also have an adverse effect on his current position in society.

2
  • I avoid allopathic medicine since it can produce new symptoms (side effects) in addition to the existing symptoms. It only adds to my distress. I am reminded of my mother who had to suffer greatly due to her regular consumption of allopathic medicines. I imagine that it might happen to me as well".
3
  • I have been suffering from hypertension for few years now. In the earlier years the neurosis was causing the heart disease. Whenever my blood pressure used to rose, my heart beat faster and there was pain in my chest too. I thought about death all the time, feeling nervous and helpless. I had frequent trips to the hospital and my blood test shows that I had quite a high level of enzymes that could cause heart attack. Since I have really strong neurosis, and not to forget my previous experiences, I am pretty convinced that it might really happen".

Injure

For better understanding the meaning of Injury, I compare it with its most used synonyms "Harm", "Damage", "Hurt", "Impair" and "Spoil"

Rubric

Injure

  • To weaken, to wound (Appearance, Health, Soundness) like injured pride.
  • People who have lost their ability to work (mentally) as a result of a painful harassing experience. "Due to the problem my whole face has become distorted." or "My whole appearance has undergone a change."
  • Injure, feels as if, she could easily injure herself: Sep
  • She would say: "I prefer to lie down and avoid doing work as I am sick."
  • She may say: "I have already lost my energy due to the sickness. Now if I would attempt on my part to exert could take away the remaining energy."

Harm

Suggests pain or distress caused more strongly (harm a person, health).

A patient has a feeling that if he makes any effort or exerts himself in any way it will harm his body.

Del, work, harm, will do him: Arg-n
Damage Stresses the loss, as in value, usefulness, etc., resulting from an injury. No rubric for such word.

Spoil

It implies to such serious impairment of a thing as to destroy its value, usefulness, etc. Spoiled, children

Hurt

  • Implies wounding physically or emotionally (as, rumors hurt his business, feelings). Like, to hurt someone's feelings.
  • "I don't mind taking help but for the fact that it will be a constant reminder for all my life that what I accomplished was not without help from someone."
Fear, hurt, feelings, of being, by others: Arn
Impair To impair something is to cause it to deteriorate in quality or to lessen in value, strength, etc. [impaired hearing] No rubric with such word.

Well, to begin with the patient is in a state where he is sure of nothing, means everything is merely a speculation. He starts constructing an idea that he has this bad, critical disease that someone he knew had as it started with similar symptoms that he has at present like prolonged cough, fever, blood stained sputum, pain or condition related to age, work or surroundings. The patient starts imagining that he has or is going to have a disease which has run in his family, without any substantial medical proof. His morbid fancy does not stop there. He imagines all the ways in which he would suffer as a result of the disease

Combination

Theorizing

Ars, Cann.i, Lach, Lyc, Op, Sul. (.

It means except these remedies, others patient does not theorize)

There are patients who claim to have sensed from their existing symptoms that they are going to get a serious disease. They say that their past experiences have gone to show that they possess a sixth sense or some special power to perceive the events in their life beforehand

Clairvoyance

Cann-i, Hyos, Lach, Op, Sil, Stram

Cann-i, Lach and Op speculate as well as claim to perceive the events going to happen in their life before hand)

This feeling of foreboding about developing some serious medical condition creeps in some patients who lose their hope of recovery and their faith in the treatment

Despair

Bell, Cann-i, Carbn-, Con, Lach, Lyc, Merc, Nux-v, Op, Sil, Sul, Stram

Bell, Cann-i, Carbn-, Con, Merc, Nux-v patient don't speculate or claim to have a foreboding but the failure of treatment gives them the idea that they may be suffering or heading towards a more serious disease.

Escape attempts to

Ars., bell, hyos., lack., lyc., mere., nux.v. op., stram., sulph

The next thing is to learn how a patient is going to react when he imagines that he could suffer from a harmful disease.

The first priority for such a patient is to find a way to avoid such a situation.

They search for the best doctor or treatment in the hope that they will be cured at the earliest stage or they ask the doctor for medicines that would save them from landing in a more serious condition.

Despair without Attempting to escape

  • Cann-i, Carbn-s,Con and Sil Patients from this group don't try to escape
  • Con has anxiety present about.

Escape, run away to

Bell, Hyos, Nux-v

  • What attempt a patient would make to escape? Run, about
  • Run, about + Escape attempts to: Ars, Bell, Hyos, Nux-v, Stram, Sul

Superstitious

Bell, Con, Op, Stram

If a patient who has "Del, Injury, about to receive", is asked how sure that such a thing would happen to him, would answer along these lines:
  1. I am sure it would happen but 10% chances that it might not.
  2. I have a doubt, but there is still a 50% chance, that it might happen.
  3. I have no doubts. I am 100% sure about it as I have a definite reason to feel so.

Patient No 1. and 2. have a logical answer but the third answer is the Rubric "Superstitious"

  • D: Why you are so sure about it? P: "My family history suggests that my suffering match with their symptoms and this is enough to convince me that I cannot escape this problem. OR P: My father is an old patient of Asthma, which he got from his father. Recently, I have started feeling breathlessness too and I cough during night. I am pretty sure that I, too, will have Asthma soon. I seem to have inherited it from my father just as he did from his father."

Why superstitious? Because, the Patient concludes about something merely on the basis of his belief. He cannot justify his belief. There is two categories due to Causation:

Doubtful, Recovery of

Ars, Lyc, merc, Lach, Nux-v, Sul

Why a patient says I am not sure?
  • He says, "It is only when I think of my mother and grandmother who suffered with heart problems therefore I fear I could go their way. They both died from it."
  • My Blood pressure is not in control in spite of the medication and the necessary precautions I follow. May be my fate is like theirs too.

Anxiety, hypochondriac

Ars, Bell, Con, Hyos, Lach, Lyc, Nux-v. Sul

The patient's first feeling is:
  • The thought of getting a bad disease causes discomfort and unrest in him.
  • He loses his peace of mind worrying, how he would cope with the problem.

Anxiety, Present about

Con

Some patients who have the rubric of "Anxiety, hypochondriac" have this feeling only for the present time and do not worry about getting it in future.

Dream, as if in a

Ars, Bell, Cann-i, Con, Hyos, Irid, Lach, Mere, Nux-v. Op, Sil, Stram

  • For some this thinking goes too far. They keep having one bad idea after another. They believe that any problem that ever happened to any one in their family is bound to get them too. A minor headache to them means forewarning of a serious problem, a symptom of brain tumor maybe.
  • But he is not without doubt. "Sometimes I feel that it's only my imagination. To me it is like fancying about something which rarely happen very rarely in anybody's life.

Sehgal Remedies

Ars

They have two states, he is either at ease andbhas a feeling of being well or he is over anxious about his

health.

In the first state he is aware of the problem but does not feel the need to do anything about it as long as it does

not interfere in his daily life. He obstinately avoids treatment and also ignores the advices of his family. In

an irritated tone of voice he tells them that he has no problem and they are unnecessarily bothering him. He

actually does it out of his concern for them. He says, "I don't want to bother my family with my problem, especially my mother. I know it will send her into panic, enough to shoot up the blood pressure."

For the state when he feels well, we have the following rubrics:

• WELL, says he is when very sick

• OBSTINATE

• REFUSES,
