leg pain over an year

For more than last one and half years my wife is getting pain at her legs (pain in one leg at a time. Initially it was only at left leg, but for last one year she is facing the problem in right leg as well alternatively). Sometimes she also feels heaviness in legs. It's usually below the knee. worse in the night. If I press hard on the large muscle beside the toe then she gets relief. She gets relief if she take Cimicifiga 30. But doctor told not the take it, doctor told to take Mag Phos 6X and above along with the medicine he prescribed. Often she is effected by headache. Usually in the left. Initially She took homeopathy medicine for quite few months, but in vain. Only after taking Mag phos 6x she was getting relief from the pain. Then we visited neurologist and after taking medicine she was fine for 2 months, then again it started paining. Then we changed the doctor. the new doctor advise for few tests and as a result it was found that low Vitamin D3 all others was fine (Thyroid, Uric Acid, cr. etc). Again after taking medicine she was fine for fine for 3-4 months. Then again started paining. Still we continue with the doctor for few more months. Then one day suddenly she felt a sever pain at waist. Did scan and found loss of lumbar clodosys. then went to a Orthopaedic and told him the previous problem as well. He again gave some medicine and some exercise. That helped, but again only for 2 months. again the legs are paining.
She is bit stubborn, her mood changes very frequently. While taking she has a habit of repeating same thing again and again specifically when she gets angry. She cries very easily. Drinks very less water. Her height is 5'3'' and weight is 68kgs. have given as much details as i can.Please help.

Dear Bappadas,

Here is a description of this and a site that has good info on it.


Aging or degeneration of the spine is termed spondylosis which can lead to arthritis or inflammation causing the muscles to react causing them to spasm pulling out straight the lumbar spine causing a loss of its sway or curve known as lordosis.

1. On the exercise program- Did you wife do these everyday or did
she stop doing them or did them off and on?

2. Has she lifted anything heavy recently or done any physical activity
that could have stressed the area?

3. Did the Dr. say there is any spinal stenosis or any disc degeneration?

Hi- You can take those 3 weeks and then a week off and
then restart again. The biochemic salts which are also
called Dr. Schuessler tissue salts are their own system.
They work on the cellular levels to balance things.

You can report on effects after 4 days- so I can monitor.

Meanwhile I will be asking more questions and studying the
answers.
 
simone717 9 years ago
Thank you sir. I will update after 4 days. One more question, if she feels pain again at the night then that should I do. Can you please suggest.
 
bappadas 9 years ago
Start the cell salts and see what happens. If she wakes up with pain-
take about 5 mag phos 6x and dissolve in half cup of warm water,
Have her sit up and sip on this at short intervals and see if it
takes the pain away.
 
simone717 9 years ago
Ok Sir, I will do so if required. Would like to update one more point. Today she checked BP. It's 100/70. She usually have low BP. I'm sorry I forgot to mention it earlier.
 
bappadas 9 years ago
Thank you,

Do you know if she is anemic?
Has she had her blood count done
recently?
 
simone717 9 years ago
I'm sorry Sir, I don't have this information. around six months back she has a lot of blood tests.. I need to check and then will update you. I can check and can update you tomorrow, as I don't have the report with me.
 
bappadas 9 years ago

results when you get them.

Best,

Questions-

1. When she had this at 10 or 11 yrs old, what was going on in her life at that time?
anything stressful -school, moving, loss of a loved one, Please have her think back on
that time period.

2.What do you mean hammering pain- is this about the legs or is this about the headache?

3. Can you describe the leg pain in detail, does it ache, does it burn, does it feel like
it is throbbing, describe in her own words.

4. Does the forward bending mean it helps with pain or it causes more pain?

5. Can you find out the names of the homeopathic medicines she is on now?

My understanding is she is on homeopathic meds and then she is also taking
Cimicifuga 30 at the time of her periods only?? or more often-? please elaborate.

6. What food does she really hate?
What food does she really like?

____________________________________

A couple things so far.

1. Her uric acid level is too high- this can be causing gout type pains. Interesting that
you can press on the big toe muscle to help bc gout shows up in that area of the big toe.
It can be changed with diet-Which has to happen as her diet and water intake sounds
very bad and no one can get well or stay well unless they have a good diet.

.
She needs to change her diet-reduce protein and purine foods.
Uric acid is stored in the joints and tissues of the body, so it is important to maintain the blood uric acid levels below 5 for at least a year to remove urate deposits.We have seen joint destruction and uric acid accumulations on people with uric acid levels as low as 5.7




- have your levels checked on a regular basis.

Tips for increased uric acid levels and gout
Watch your weight. Try to lose weight slowly.- slowly bc fast weight loss can increase
the uric acid levels.

Eat fresh fruit, vegetables, whole wheat products and some pulses (high in purine) every day.

Enjoy low-fat milk and dairy products daily.

Keep an eye on the purine content of food. Avoid offal, shellfish and crustaceans and tinned fish such as sardines in oil.

Eat no more than 100g of meat, sausages, fish and poultry a day.

Drink alcohol only occasionally, as it affects the elimination of uric acid.

Eat low-fat food. The consumption of high-fat foods encourages weight gain.

Drink at least two litres of low-calorie fluids a day. Recommended fluids are water, tea and fruit juice-

Hot baths and whirpool baths help remove the uric acid crystals out of the body.

_______________

Her Vitamin D level is too high now. Are you in a place with little Sun?


You should take steps to lower your levels to below 100 ng/ml , unless you are under the supervision of your doctor. To lower your levels, stop taking supplements. After three months, test your vitamin D levels and adjust the amount of supplement you take once your test results show your level has dropped back down to the normal range.

Dear Sir,
Here’s her answer:
1.At the age of 10-11 nothing special happen. But she pointed out that she was very much depressed during those ages. Her sister was more brilliant than her and was performing well, so everybody were putting interest on her sister not on her. According to her at that time it impacted her a lot.
2.Hammering pain means biting feelings at her legs.
3.She feels pain mostly in following area:
Lower side of the feet.
Most of the time it’s between knee and feet.
Sometimes it’s hip and below knee.
In first two scenario on pressing big muscle of toe or back side of the toe she gets relief. Worse at the night. It is gnawing, biting pain. She is not getting any joint pain. Usually affects one leg at a time. Rarely both the legs together.
4.Forward bent causes more pain
5.I’m sorry, we don’t the names of the medicines. Last time she took it on 4th Sept, I think.
Usually she takes one dose of Cimicifuga 30 during period. To get rid of leg pain, she took Cimicifuga 30, 3-4 times for last 2-3 weeks.

6.She hate any bitter food like – bitter ground. Also she does not like fruits or most of the vegetables.
She loves spicy, hot foods. She also like sweet and sour foods.

Thanks for your advise. She has already started to take hot bath. Already she is doing exercise and will start morning walk to reduce body weight. Also will follow the diet suggested by you.

For Vitamine D, she has already stopped the medicines 3 months ago.
 
bappadas 9 years ago
Hi.

Has she started the biochemic mag phos and Cal Flour yet?

If so, does she notice anything, any relief?

What happens when she takes the Cimicifuga? does it get rid of pain
100 percent or what percent?

Is she warm most of the time, or is she cold?

Is she still taking the medicines that you don't know what they are-
from the other homeopath?
Does she notice any kind of effects, good or bad from those, and what
are the effects?
 
simone717 9 years ago
Dear sir,
She is already taking the medicines for last two days. But till now not getting any improvement. When the pain is increasing she is putting hot water bag and getting relief.

After taking cimicifuga she was getting around 90% reliefe.

Due to the pain probable she has become very irritative kind of woman. Getting angry easily. Earlier also I have noticed the same. If she is being effected by the pain for continuously few weeks she get angry easily.

She last used those medicine around 7 days back. After taking those medicines sometimes she was fine some times not.
 
bappadas 9 years ago
Hi-

I am not understanding something about this-

After taking those medicines sometimes she was fine sometimes not.

Was she fine for -- how long a time period?

Is this the same homeopath that said do not take Cimicifuga?

When she takes Cimicifuga - does she just take one dose?
And then if there is 90 percent relief, how long does that last for?
 
simone717 9 years ago
Dear sir,
Sometimes fine and some times not means.. Say after taking medicine she was fine for 2weeks, then again it was starting paining for one week. This just an example the time frame varied every time.

One point I would like to bring into your attention that earlier she was effected after a certain period of time. Usually each Thursday or Friday. Now a days I and getting that kind of interval.

Yes the same Dr. Told not to take cimicifuga.

She took one dose only.after taking one dose she was getting relief for that night only. Then she got asleep and next day usually she didn't feel the pain.
 
bappadas 9 years ago
Hi Bappadas,

I am still studying this.

However, I would like you to get hold
of some tart cherry syrup, that you
can mix a couple tablespoons into a glass
of water. If you cannot get that , see if
you can get tart cherries and have her
eat 20 of them a day-maybe 10 and then
10 more later. I don't know what you
have there.

The tart cherry works very well with people who have high
uric acid levels. People are able to use this and get off
medicines bc it takes away the pain.

So I would like you to have her try this, as it can only help her
uric acid levels and it could be a big help with pain.
 
simone717 9 years ago
Please purchase Phosphorus 200c.

Put 3 pills into a half cup of water in a water bottle. Dissolve and
hit the bottle against your hand 5 times.

Take a capful out of that as one dose.

Give her one dose at night, another dose in the morning,
and one more the next night. Hit the bottle 5x before each dose.

If there is any reaction good or bad to dose One or dose two-
then stop at that dose and report.

Stop the cell salts for now. If she has unbearable pain etc
you can give her an ibuprofen tablet but she cannot take
cimicifuga etc or we won't know what is working or not
working.

Report in after a week.

She can have cherries or put the syrup - 2 tsps in a glass of water-
- have that a few times a day to see what it does for pain.

simone717 9 years ago
I'm sorry sir, probable I couldn't understand the dose. I have to take half cup water into a bottle, then need to add three pills and have to use it thrise as you mentioned. Am I correct sir?
 
bappadas 9 years ago
Yes you are correct. You have to hit
the bottle against your hand also-5
times before you take a dose.

A dose can be one tsp. of the water,
have her hold in her mouth for
20 seconds then swallow.
 
simone717 9 years ago
Sir as you mentioned 'She can have cherries or put the syrup - 2 tsps in a glass of water-...' - is it cherries fruit? If so how many cherries she need to take a day? And for syrup, is it cherries juice? If you can clarify sir, I will be greatful.
[message edited by bappadas on Wed, 10 Sep 2014 04:20:21 BST]
 
bappadas 9 years ago
Yes you can have tart cherry juice-
We can get Cherry syrup here and then use a couple tablespoons
to make a large amount ( cheaper)

Here is an article about cherries in India.http://theindianvegan.blogspot.com/2012/09/all-about-cherrie...

I think you are in India- if not let me know.
