A 52-year-old male patient, Mr. H.L. (PIN: 38414) was suffering from Fibromyalgia for more than 10 years. He had pain in all his muscles, particularly more in the neck and back. He experienced diffuse, severe pain. He was experiencing muscle tenderness and occasional muscle spasm. Along with the pain, he had typical associated symptoms of Fibromyalgia, such as disturbed sleep, depressed mood, mood swings, and felt tired to a degree that his normal activities were affected. He was on antidepressants for two years. He visited Life Force clinic on 29th October 2018.
On inquiry, while Homeopathic case taking, it was found that he had a badly affected childhood. He was always bullied by his own brother and had a toxic relationship with parents. He felt lonely and neglected. His parents would compare him with other siblings and friends and criticized him because of which he had developed an inferiority complex. He had poor confidence and felt anxious. He was unable to leave his childhood behind, and he was still tangled in old memories. He had resentment and anger against his parents and brother. He didn't like to mix with the people. He was extremely emotional would cry seeing emotional scenes and horror movies. He was working in the railway department as a supervisor. His wife was a homemaker, and his son was 16 years old.
He was also suffering from Lichen planus pigmentosa and Sleep apnea.
His appetite was low. He was vegetarian by diet and craved for sour foods. He was sensitive to the cold weather. His sleep was disturbed and interrupted, and he would wake up daily at night around 2-3 am. He was a chronic alcoholic and a smoker too. However, he had stopped smoking and drinking as his health had started to deteriorate significantly.
Dr. Shah studied the case in detail and prescribed Magnesium Carbonicum-30 along with his research-based medicines.
After 6 weeks of the treatment, the patient reported his relief from the pain was better by 10%-20%.
He showed persistent improvement in the subsequent follow-ups.
On 5th February 2019, the patient reported that his relief from pain was better by 90%. His sleep was improved significantly. Also, at the mind level, he was feeling much better than earlier. He had stopped thinking about his childhood and had started to enjoy his present life.
Conclusion:
Fibromyalgia may be associated with other co-morbid mental disorders, such as anxiety, depression, etc. and psycho-social factors play an important role in both the cause and course of illness. Homeopathy considers the psychological source of physical symptoms and homeopathic medicines function at the level of body and mind collectively, thus homeopathy treats the disease at the root level.
