A lady aged 46 years came on 28/2/2006 with the complaint of kidney stone since 2-3 years.

Her sonography impression was: ' A lower pole calculus measuring 3.8mm in left kidney is noted'

She complained periodically of pain in the left flank (renal angle) and had difficulty while passing urine. The pain was felt like a catch and when very intense she suffered from vomiting and loose motions.

While inquiring about any stress in her life we understood that she had some concern about financial matters and felt whether their resources would suffice till the end of her life. In the past she was also tensed when their house was demolished and reconstructed. She felt if the builder fails to keep his promise her family would be homeless.

On the basis of her complaints and mental make up (which is very vital in prescribing a homeopathic remedy) she was given a homeopathic remedy 'Calcarea-renalis' .

She started improving quite well under the treatment. There were few episodes of mild pain which got better without any pain killers.

4/4/2006

Severe pain in the flank and urethra while passing urine. As the pain was intense she was asked to take the homeopathic medicines diluted in water and taken frequently. She reported that the pain was better after the medicine was taken as instructed

Few of her such episodes were taken care by administrating the medicine in this fashion and she continued the treatment quite regularly.

She reported that she passed a stone the previous week. As she did not preserve the stone no chemical analysis could be made. Neverthless she felt immense relief after that.
