Complete Homeopathic Cure of Leukemic Patient Suffering Diarrhea
Hospital infectious diarrhea is very common especially in patients suffering Acute Myeloid leukemia. Preventive measures should be considered in such patients especially in elder people to prevent infections. Washing hands is the most important and maybe the easiest preventive act to be done by hospital personnel especially in intensive care units. A rather tall old man aged 84, was admitted at a general hospital in Tehran because of suffering from severe low back pain due to metastatic lesions, at the oncology ward about 4months ago. For the first time, about 8 months ago, he felt severe pain in his back and was examined by a physician, in the March 2017. Radiologic images showed lumbar vertebrate fracture due to leukemic metastatic lesion, since then he was treated by conventional drugs. After being admitted in the hospital to palliate his severe back pain, he was afflicted by an acute diarrhea for 15 days. His daughter called up the author and asked for homeopathic healing of his crippling diarrhea, not treated by conventional medicines after 15 days. The next day she came to the clinic and homeopathic Arsenicum album 6x was prescribed regarding his father’s constitution. She gave his father a single dose of 4 drops of the remedy. The next day diarrhea stopped. Thus he was discharged from the hospital and was taken to his home. The patient felt better but could not yet sit or stand and walk on his own. She was said to give her father 1 drop of the remedy after shaking 8 times, 3 times a day. He gradually felt better and more energetic, so that he asked his wife to help him go out for walking and sitting in the park near their home. His appetite improved and started eating food and drinking water. Thus randomized clinical trials are suggested to assess the efficacy of the remedy in similar patients and to show the efficacy of homeopathic remedy, Arsenicum album in healing diarrhea in leukemic patients.
