– A case of helonias (S. Thakkar)
Weakness during pregnancy
Helonias dioica
Case
This is a patient I have been treating for two years. This time she called me during her third trimester of her third pregnancy and she said, “You must do something for me; I am feeling incredible fatigue. I never felt this weak in my other two pregnancies. I am so weak that even walking down the stairs is exhausting.” She also reports she has been feeling very irritable, and that her husband and kids are fed up with her nit-picking and grouchy attitude. Everything they do is wrong or not good enough. They are so afraid of her that they fear crossing her. I asked her is there anything she can do to feel better. She said, “I love gardening and landscaping.” She has taken up this big project of landscaping her yard, and she forgets all her troubles when she is immersed in it. But she gets so frustrated because soon it makes her tired again and the whole cycle returns.
One dose of Helonias 30 was given. Two days later she called me, and in an enthusiastic voice she said her weakness was completely gone and she was glad because she would be able to finish her landscaping project before the arrival of her baby.
