A 16-year-old female, Ms. R.M. (Registration: ABB-89) visited Homeo Care Clinic on 31st October 2020 with the complaint of Cerebral Palsy and Epilepsy.
She was suffering from this complaint since the age of 6-7 years. She had regular episodes of epilepsy. The episode was so severe that she used to get drained and remain unconscious for 2-3 days after epilepsy. The episode used to last for 15-20 minutes and being a Cerebral Palsy patient it was difficult for parents to manage her. She is completely bedridden since birth. They have consulted many modern doctors but epilepsy never reduced.
The patient was on anti-epileptics (Tab Oxyetal 150 mg) for the last 16 years and continued till they came for homeopathic treatment. Initially, they started with homeopathic treatment from some doctors but the results were not to their expectation.
The patient was a vegetarian with a normal appetite. She had cravings for spicy and aversion- sweets. Her stool, urine, sleep, and thirst were all normal. Hunger is intolerable for her. The music she desires.
Pregnancy History – Mother had family stress and also study stress and relationship with husband was also not that great during pregnancy. She used to be always under stress.
