Follow-up Burundi / Congo January 2009

This visit to Burundi and Congo was a follow-up of the visit of November 2008. The main purpose was to supervise the nurses that have been using the Amma4Africa Kit. Overall their experience is very positive, and this made clear that indeed with just a few hours training medically qualified people easily implement the manual and successfully prescribe PC resonances. The nurses confirmed the good results with HIV/AIDS and malaria also witnessed in other African countries and feel very confident in prescribing the PCs for them. 80% of these cases do very well. If the remedies for these indications do not seem to work they look for obstacles to cure and usually find them in terms of wrong diagnosis, patients not taking the remedy properly or as with malaria, that if abdominal symptoms remain while all other symptoms go away, this indicates a next remedy, most likely PC typhoid, as many patients suffer from malaria and typhoid simultaneously.

Case example: seven-year-old Daniela is HIV-positive as are her parents.  Since 2006 she has symptoms. She uses bactrim. Her appetite is bad (3), she has an eruption in the mouth, and lacks the energy to play with other children.

I saw her again two months later. The eruption in the mouth is gone. She is eating normally now, has gained two kilos and plays with other children. She used to be sick all the time, her mother says, but now she is well. Also her sleep has improved.

Case example: Juma is a six-year-old boy. He is an AIDS-orphan and was tested HIV-positive himself in May 2008 and was immediately put on ARVs. His most recent CD4 count in September was 110 units. His weight is 21 kilos. He suffers from skin eruptions that get infected, and has many times malaria or angina.

Follow-up after 4 weeks: weighing 22 kilos now. The angina, bronchitis and fever are gone and he has no more malaria.

FU after seven weeks: his CD4 has gone up to 175 units and his Karnofsky score has gone up from 40 to 90.

FU one week later: all the previous symptoms of weakness, lack of appetite, general pains, headache etc have now all disappeared. He is a normal child now.

Case example: Nadine is 14 years old and small for her age. Due to splenomegalia her abdomen is enormously enlarged and painful. Her spleen must be weighing several kilos. She has malaria very often. As splenomegalia and malaria can be related she is treated with PC malaria.

Follow-up after two months: No more malaria. Her abdomen no longer hurts and is a little bit less swollen indicating that the spleen is becoming smaller in size. Although she has no more malaria the swelling of the spleen indicates she continues taking PC malaria.

In November we lined up dozens of children with chronic or regular malaria at Land of Hope, a school of 600 children of which 400 are orphans. The teachers reported now that these children were all doing well, whereas children that were not treated were still having malaria regularly. We agreed on a program to treat all 600 children with PC malaria as prophylaxis. During two weeks the teachers will give PC malaria daily, a month later to be followed again by one week of daily treatment. After that the plan is to repeat the remedy only once a month. This regime may need to be adjusted depending on the experiences.

Those children that were treated at the same school for war trauma or adoption trauma also responded well. According to the teachers they are much more attentive in class and have better concentration. The children themselves reported having much less thoughts about the past and about missing their parents. Some adoption trauma cases relapsed shortly after stopping the remedy. These cases have been changed to PC grief, as adoption and losing parents is not the same and may not be the exact situation in many of them.

The nurses are very positive about PC diabetes. 90% of these cases show remarkable improvement and I have been able to follow-up several of them. Blood sugar levels return to normal in a matter of weeks and diabetes related symptoms improve rapidly. Remarkable results, as in my 20 years of experience with diabetes this was not one of the easy indications to treat with homeopathy.

Case example: 55-year-old Pili has diabetes and is weighing 80 kilos. Glycaemia 289 mg/dl (N 55-115) or 16,53 Mmol/l

Follow-up after two months: “I used to be dozing all the time but no more. I have lost weight because I’m much more active. Before I felt hungry all the time but now it’s finished. I can walk now without getting tired.” The last blood sugar level measured on December 12 was 4,8 Mmol/l. Later checks showed blood sugars staying within normal range.

The cases of gonorrhoea and hepatitis I saw for follow-up were all doing well. The gonorrhoea cases typically symptom free, the hepatitis cases much improved.

Case example: Christelle is 35-years-old. She has malaria 10 times in a year and besides that suffers from vaginitis with itching and discharge since 5 years. She received PC Malaria and PC gonorrhoea (one in the morning, the other in the evening, to see whether dealing with two diseases simultaneously would work).

FU after 5 days: In response to the medication she felt a pain in her right shoulder extending to the head which then went away. The pain she had in the lower abdomen doubled for a short time and then went away together with the discharge. The itching is a lot better since the discharge has stopped.

The headaches and vertigo have improved as also cramps she used to have all over her body. The pain in her joints is completely gone. Her head is still sensitive to the sun.

FU after 4 weeks: all symptoms are gone.

FU after two month: is completely fine, also no more malaria.

Conclusion: using PC resonances it is possible to successfully treat two conditions simultaneously. Despite that the normal advice is to start with the one that causes most suffering and to start the second remedy as soon as the first condition has been cured.

Case example: Faustin is 33-years-old and has hepatitis since 2004. He has fever often, can’t stand for long from pain in the liver and also has malaria regularly. His sclerae are very yellow.

Follow-up after 8 days: what we notice is that his eyes are less yellow. The pain in the liver has gone down from a 5 to a 3-4. He can stand longer and his energy has improved. He continues taking PC hepatitis.

Follow-up after two weeks: feels very well. He can work normally again and was able to watch a full soccer game while standing.

After two months: “The remedy has helped me a lot. As long as I do not overdo it I can walk without a problem and the liver does not become painful. I can stand now for a long time. I feel this is really a good medicine for me.”

A written report again two months later narrated that he had no symptoms any longer and that his eyes were no longer yellow.

The results with tuberculosis show a mixed picture. Some cases, like the 70-year-old lady that was symptom free after four days of treatment (see previous report) do very well (she is reported to be still doing fine). Some cases give improvement but slow. As the nurses do not have the means to test for TB themselves, a wrong diagnosis may be part of the reasons of the mixed results. Just like people call any fever or headache malaria, any cough is called TB. Those cases where the patient was tested in the hospital as positive for TB clearly improved, so I have no indication that the remedy as such would not be effective in all cases. But my impression is that TB takes longer to fully be cured and we decided to experiment with 2-3 doses per day instead of once daily.

During my previous visit I treated several cases of war trauma and reported good responses. I then also saw a few cases of rape trauma. This time we decided to also visit Bukavu, as there were no recent reports on rebels in that area. The city is flooded with refugees, amongst them many raped women.

Let me present a composite story of the raped women of Bukavu:

Rebels enter the house and demand that a woman should undress. She refuses, after which they torture her with guns, knives and sticks. Many still carry scars from the severe wounds inflicted. Then several of them rape her in front of her children, or the children have escaped the house and try to hide in the woods. Elderly children they may take with them and kill later, or use them for their purposes as child soldiers or to satisfy their sexual needs. If the husband is there, they first kill him. A way is to lock him in the hut and to set fire to it and then rape his wife. If the husband was not there and finds out about the situation, he usually chases his wife and the (remaining) children away. She and her kids walk to the city where she tries to find shelter and to earn some money by carrying heavy loads. She earns just enough to buy some food for herself and the children, but as she cannot pay school fees, her children are expelled from school. Because of the rape she got infected with gonorrhoea or HIV, but cannot afford treatment. She is living in the past, experiences only hardship in the present and doesn’t see a future for herself or her children.

Based on the results with earlier seen cases, like the beautiful response in the one below, I expected and prayed PC rape would do a lot for these women.

Cases example: Four years ago 38-years-old Marcelline was raped by two soldiers and became pregnant. Since it was an extra-uterine pregnancy she decided to abort it. Now during intercourse she has a lot of pain, ‘as if they are trying to put a tree inside’. She has vaginal infection regularly. Every time she has pain she thinks about the rape, and ever since the rape she is fearful on seeing a man. The joy of sex is gone, and instead she is afraid of it because of the pain. During intercourse anger comes out.

At a FU after two months we meet a radiant woman: “the thoughts about rape have disappeared. I have no longer an aversion to sex but desire it very much now. No more fear; I enjoy it now. When I see men I’m no longer afraid. No more anger.”

Nevertheless there are still the physical problems of pain with intercourse and vaginal discharge. The pain though doesn’t raise anger anymore and doesn’t prevent her from enjoying intercourse. Most likely the remaining symptoms are caused by gonorrhoea due to the rape. She continues treatment with PC gonorrhoea.

Report from Bukavu June 2009

After my visit a small Amma4Africa Clinic could start with the help of a donation. The nurses attending the cases I had treated and taking on many new cases wrote a feedback for the rape trauma cases:

“We are happy to inform you that all the women treated for the trauma of war and rape are doing very well. Here are some quotes:

“I live free from the past now. The dreams and fears have gone.”

“I can sleep well now. I have confidence in this remedy. It is helping me a lot.”

“I am much better and I can work well now. I have no more fear and no feeling of being a victim anymore. I accept the past.”

“I am no longer the slave of my past. My thoughts are more oriented on the future now.”

The women are so much brighter than before. The only problem is that they are still facing a hard life that can bring more trauma to them.”

Nathalie and Ang̬le РAmma4Africa Clinic Bukavu

As trauma undermines the immune system and therefore makes people more vulnerable to epidemic diseases, it is obvious that if a genus epidemicus approach to trauma (as-if-one-person) would work, it would have great positive implications. It means that with little effort, millions of traumatised people could be treated. Based on my experience with the trauma of war and rape I am convinced that this is possible, as one remedy for an indication (E.g. PC rape trauma) can easily be imagined.

Future plans for Africa

The plan of Floribert and his people is to use the present Amma4Africa Clinics in Uvira and Bukavu as a base from which mobile clinics will visit villages. Also the intention is to start new clinics in Burundi, Tanzania and Rwanda. For €2000 a clinic can be equipped and the first months of rent and salaries paid, after which the clinic could be self supporting and the ARHF would only supply remedies.

Existing homeopathy projects anywhere in the world can easily add PC Resonances to their supplies and thus treat epidemic diseases and trauma with little effort, thus saving time for those conditions that need individualised treatment.

Future plans for India

India clearly has many epidemic diseases and PC Resonances for them could help the hundreds of thousands of homeopathic doctors in India to treat them successfully. It would increase their success and reduce their workload allowing more time for tailor made treatment for chronic diseases.

Soon I hope PC Resonances will be produced in India. In the mean time homeopaths from India can order PC resonances at www.helios.co.uk or write to info@ARHF.nl for discussing ways of documenting cases of epidemic diseases for which ARHF can provide the PC Resonances. At www.vitalremedies.com a list of all available PC Resonances for infectious diseases is represented.

Donations

Donations to the ARHF are most welcome and will be used solely to promote projects, as no one at ARHF receives a salary or compensation for time invested. To be able to appropriately deal with an expanding number of projects and contacts though, a secretary is dearly needed, and will need to receive an income unless a volunteer comes forward! We welcome your donations to make that possible. It will enable us to use our time for those projects that demand most attention, including research.

Donations can be made online by using PayPal or transferred to the following bank account:

Volunteers

If you want to set up a project in a developing country or are already involved in one and are interested in using PC Resonances we would be happy to support you with Kits, Manuals and Instruction Cards. Please write to info@ARHF.nl or leave a message at www.ARHF.nl

Conclusion

This was a long story, but one full of hope for health and prosperity for the millions now suffering from epidemic diseases, trauma and chronic diseases. Thank you for your attention. Following Hahnemann’s advice in modern terms I invite you to try it out following the instructions provided on www.ARHF.nl
