Eurhynchium striatum
Male age 61, Egyptian
He is the 10th child of his mother. She kept on mentioning that while she was pregnant with him, tried many things to have an abortion and how glad she is now, that she did not succeed. The son showed understanding for her and her situation throughout his entire life. His mother tried to compensate her guilty feelings with food and a constant urge to fulfil all his wishes in the right way. She was always afraid he wouldn’t get enough to eat. Especially after he suffered with 6 years of an undiagnosed Thyphus abdominalis. He stayed very weak and somehow unconscious in a very severe state for 3 month before he recovered.
When he was 35 he had pneumonia and about 15 years ago he suffered from
COPD and has to take regularly medicine for that. But the striking thing about his COPD is that it disappears completely the moment he arrives back in Egypt. There he can stay free from his drugs.
2 years ago he suffered very acute from a crises of diabetes. The blood sugar was about 486 high and went to normal after Veratrum album C200 (or because he travelled to Egypt) within a week. It had started some weeks before with heavy spontaneous attacks of vomiting. After the remedy it never reappeared, but he still has to be aware of low sugar crises.
In the last month he suffered from a kidney stone in the right side. His kidney problems actually started the first time when he was 19 years old and left Egypt to start studying in Germany. It was mostly treated over the years with allopathic medicine.
Now 2 months ago he had an operation, because the stone was too large for other treatments.
Since that time he developed severe nightly cough attacks with suffocation and vomiting. In combination with this he has a bad itching eczema all over the body which he treats with cortison ointments.
Because his wife attended the proving, she recognized that the theme of the mother/child dynamic that has come up during the proving was completely the theme of his life. So she took a sample of the c 3 powder home. There her husband was waiting for her in a rage, because she was late and had missed making dinner at the time he wanted. He himself was unable to look after himself, finding food or making something to eat in time to avoid a low sugar crises.
That night he developed a more severe cough with suffocation. His wife had to react and diluted the powder of Eurhynchium striatum and he drank it. Surprisingly, as he usually refused help or a homeopathic remedy. The release came immediately, the cough went down and his breathing went to normal.
The following nights he had no more attacks and his sleep got better than ever in his life. The demand of care changed into self care and a sentence that appears now frequently is: „I’ll look after myself, don’t worry“. His deep aggression is much less and his hardness against himself is softening.
