A case of Aortic Valve disorder

1) Introduction

Homoeopathic medical system if properly used can cure any disease. Only problem is in selection of remedy. I have seen different people applying different methods and giving huge dose of medication to patient form daily to hourly basis. But if you select the remedy properly only a few doses of remedy at right time can bring miracles to the patient. In the form of total cure.

2) Patient details

Mrs. Pxxxxxx aged 34 approached me on 8th DEC 2006 with the following symptoms

1) Difficulty in breathing

2) Extreme anxiety

4) Conciliation

In this case Just Arsenicum Album was given totally 5 doses in a span of 1 year. Also the remedy has served for not only the heart disease but also for other problems the patient had from time to time. Homoeopathy can serve any condition of the patient if the doctor and the patient do not become panic.
