Cichorium intybus 3-666.43.06A girl of eight years old, she takes up little space, she is gentle, and you can see her thinking and processing what is being said, how she is in her world or fantasy, and how well she transitions. She has been frequently ill this entire school year. She often complains of abdominal pain, headaches, or sore throat. It began during the COVID year; since then, she is often tired and catches every flu. She quickly develops irritated skin, which becomes red, eczema-like, and then subsides. Last week, for example, she had a fever for two days and did not go to school; yesterday, she had a headache again. "How can we help her?" asks the mother, vulnerable and with an open expression of "no idea." She self said, "I am tired, sick, the belly, the head" (points to the vertex, this has been the case since COVID with lots of headaches, fatigue, fever, mostly coughing), "Then I lie quietly on the couch." Sleeping helps, paracetamol helps. The pain is in the whole abdomen, it pricks, especially "very painful." Sometimes sore throat. No swollen lymphatic glands and the tongue is clean. The tonsils were removed at the age of four, and the throat complaints were gone for two years. Until last year, she was never ill, sometimes with throat infections, but she was a healthy baby and always ate well. During throat infections: not wanting to eat, not wanting to drink, with fever, or earache. Periods with lots of sneezing. Fatigue: then she is listless, and has little interest in playing, normally she
loves playing outside, even in the rain, she has many contacts, including trampoline, playground, doing cartwheels, and handstands. In recent years: they have moved twice in a short period, it was a busy time for the parents, and they are still recovering. The children are now attending another school. The pregnancy was quite heavy, achieved through hormone therapy, the mother was sick for nine months, nauseous, and kept vomiting a lot. The delivery went well, and she recovered quickly. She was very happy. The child's character: she is cheerful, and gentle, likes math, prefers playing school or playing father and mother. She loves pasta, and chicken soup, and dislikes bitter foods. She is always cheerful, caring, and attentive to others. She is sensitive to the atmosphere, for example, if something is not right in the classroom, like a small quarrel, she is very concerned with what others think of her. She is a very well-behaved child, follows along neatly, and asks, "Why do they behave like this, they know the rules, right?" In recent months, she has grown a lot, often has growing pains, her legs hurt. Mother works in social care, father in enforcement.AnalysisWhat stands out in the story, what is prominent in the case as a starting point: the whole picture is characteristic here. Series 6, Lanthanides: explaining independently, thinking independently, and a balanced development, good at switching (in attention to subjects and thoughts) is an important characteristic of Lanthanides.
Asterales: vulnerable, refined, infections, pain. Her appearance, posture, and childlike world, this combination stand out, and the protective and understanding role of the mother confirms all this as "status quo."
Phase 3: She seeks an understanding of the world (the behavior of other children, her awareness of this is remarkable), fits with Lanthanides, and analogously Gold series, the not understanding, not comprehending leads to Phase 3. Much of her consciousness is in playing, she is satisfied with her childhood, not interested in growing up, that’s for ‘later’.
Phase 4: Pregnancy was very deliberate, and determined, the mother was happy, the child was desired and the mother conscious of her from the start of pregnancy. Much effort was required, being dependent on help is Phase 3. Except for the throat, she was never ill, a good start (Phase 4), then this year a new situation: the house, the school, a growth spurt (Phase 3, not yet entirely settled) as a burdening situation. Many indications for the Cichoriaceae.
