Cirrhosis of the Liver After Autoimmune Hepatitis Cured with Homeopathy

Article by Dr. Devendra Kumar Munta MD(Homeo)

In recent years, the potential of homeopathy as a complementary treatment option has garnered significant attention, especially in complex cases that have been deemed hopeless by conventional medicine. Today, I want to share a remarkable case that highlights the efficacy of homeopathy in treating cirrhosis of the liver following autoimmune hepatitis.

Our story centers around a 21-year-old female medical student who was diagnosed with cirrhosis after battling autoimmune hepatitis. Despite her young age and determination, she found herself in a dire situation after exhausting all available allopathic treatments, which left her feeling helpless. When her gastroenterologist marked her case as “hopeless,” she sought an alternative approach—homeopathy.

When she first approached our practice on May 21, 2013, she presented with alarmingly high levels of serum bilirubin, SGOT, SGPT, and a significantly elevated ESR of 50 mm. Moreover, she exhibited fascinating behavioral traits—her desire for cold water, ice creams, and sour foods provided critical insights into her unique constitution. These factors guided us toward selecting the right remedy for her condition.

The prescribed remedy was Phosphorus 200c, comprising just four tiny pills, and this marked the beginning of her healing journey. To our delight, her ESR levels demonstrated significant improvement at her next follow-up visit. As a practitioner, I emphasize monitoring ESR levels as a crucial prognostic factor in chronic cases. When we observe a decrease in ESR, it often signifies that the remedy is working effectively.

Her subsequent visits showcased further positive changes:

• June 5, 2013: ESR reduced to 45 mm, showing slight improvement.
• June 22, 2013: A continued decline—ESR at 35 mm; serum bilirubin was relieved to 3.6 mg%.
• July 6, 2013: As her condition improved, we noted that her levels maintained their gains despite the physiological stress of menstruation.
• August 17, 2013: Her ESR continued to trend downwards, reaching 36 mm, confirming the remedy’s effectiveness.
• October 22, 2013: Her results were remarkable, with ESR at 15 mm and lower bilirubin levels than before.

Despite her challenges, including periods of anemia and fluctuations in blood parameters, we maintained our treatment with Saclac and eventually made adjustments as needed. Her journey serves as a powerful reminder of the resilience of the human body and the healing potential of homeopathy.

While we cannot reverse the fibrosis associated with her liver damage completely, it’s reassuring to know that there can be regeneration of hepatic cells, which is vital for improved liver function. It is important to note here that the question shouldn’t solely focus on “how” homeopathy works; rather, it’s about how homeopathy saved her life from what was considered an incurable and hopeless disease.

The scientific community may debate the mechanisms behind homeopathy, but in my practice, the primary goal remains clear: alleviating suffering and restoring health through careful observation and symptom similarity.

In conclusion, this case highlights the profound impact homeopathy can have on conditions that seem resistant to traditional medical treatments. As we continue to explore the bounds of homeopathy, I invite you to join me in the next discussion, where we will delve into how homeopathy has assisted a paraplegic patient suffering from cervical spine injuries. Together, let us champion the incredible potential of homeopathic healing.
