This is the case
of Mr. G.A (Patient Ref. No. 4237) a 58 years old male patient who reported to us with
complaints of milky urine since 10 years. He had been
diagnosed as chyluria (a condition in which lymphatic
fluid is detected in urine). His complaints were
aggravated by taking oily foods and milk products. Also
during the past few months he had lost 10 kilograms of
weight and also developed deficiency of vitamin B12 and
folic acid. His cystoscopy with bilateral retrograde
pyelography revealed few lympho-renal communications. He
was treated with chelating agents' injections locally and
hetrazan but without any significant results. He had
weakness on exertion since the last 7 to 8 years.
Along with this he also had complaints of chronic
constipation and pain in the knee joints. He was a known
case of hypertension since the past 8 years and was on
regular treatment for the same.
His appetite and general health was normal. He was a
vegetarian and his diet would be without any oil and
without milk too. In general he kept good health without
any other problems.
He had no major stress or tensions in life. He was happy
with his job.
In the past, he was operated for hernia (at the age of 9
years). The only significant family history available was
that his father had died of tongue cancer.
Considering all his complaints and his case history, he
was prescribed Lycopodium 200 along with a dose of Thuja
200. Initially he was given medication for 4 weeks. Later
after 4 weeks when he reported to us, his complaint of
milky urine had reduced by 50%. Also his stools were quite
satisfactory now. His knee joint pain was also better to
some extent. In the next follow up he mentioned that his
urinary complaint was better up to 75%. Also his
constipation problem was better up to 80%. This time the
knee pains were significantly reduced. He did not feel
weakness any longer; instead he was much more active and
energetic than ever before.
This case illustrates that even conditions like chyluria
which did not improve with other forms of treatment,
respond very well with homoeopathy in a considerably short
duration of time. |
