Rhododendron aureum
Year 2022, Issue 36, Article 8CaseAuthor: Pavol Tibensky
Woman, 80,
I feel every hurricane.
Lady Anna, born 1938, divorced, retired head nurse, examined for pain of locomotor system, during atmospheric changes mainly. She feels changes of weather like hurricanes, tropic storms, floods etc. their pains looks like gout, they changes place, she cannot move.
- I have swelling in right knee during ball lightning in Czech Republic in 2002. Puncture of it was unsuccessful. Level of uric acid is normal, but I cannot move after bean soup. I had stomach ulcer after overdosing with Aspirin.
- I have pain in right leg and swelling of right ankle during arctic airflow and during snowfall. I have fever during snowfall, I cannot move. I went to the toilet on all four. Pans gone after snowfall. I have pains of all big bones like thunderbolt, electric spark, and electricity.
- It imitates gout during hurricanes, big snowfalls and cloudburst. I have pain in knee last week, not so dramatic. I hear broadcasting: there were tens tornados in northwest of USA. I had stitching in knee and hip day before yesterday. There were tornados in Texas, three people are dead. It is my normal reaction.
- I feel pains like from needles, I must rub knee. I had heard about floods in Spain. We have three times more of meteorological disturbances then usually./2005/ Nobody can remember such hurricanes more than 50 years. Nobody can recollect such flood: 2 minutes of rain and immediately is a flood. Persons were drowning; I hope it will be less. Floods on Crete, wild sea, tornados in Japan. I have pain in distal joints when meteorological disturbances are more distant. I have pain in hips and knees, when changes are in Europe.
- I was examined by doctors from our hospital. They were unhappy, sometimes they smiled, and they make some grimaces. I saw, they do not know how to help me. I guessed what they think: crazy woman and so on./They cannot imagine such sensitivity/
- I would like to visit my daughter in Greece, I cannot. I am very restricted due my pains.Case analysisThis was simple case due to well known picture of remedy Rhododendron. Story of this lady confirmed Sankaran theory, namely picture of family Ericaceae:
The main sensation of Ericaceae family is extension, change, change in location, wandering. Therefore need is to move from one place to another and most important organ affected is lower extremities.
She does not want to speak about his marriage and about his alcoholic episode. She completely avoids it and she tells about her physical complaints only. The feeling of sycotic remedies is: "I am incapable of handling this situation. Something is wrong with me". It is the feeling of a fixed, irremediable weakness within oneself. With this admission, there is an attempt to cope with it by covering it up, and hiding it from others by egotism, secrecy and compulsive acts. The feeling probably arises after having struggled without success for some time.
We began with Rhododendron chrysanthum C 200. She felt no change after one month; she admitted some amelioration after three months. I raised potency to 1M. She used it a few years. Her sensitivity to atmospheric changes is less. She did not feel tornados, floods, and hurricanes and so on from 2007 up to the present time.
