A case of 10⁶ Lakhs Pseudomonas bacilli per ml of urine
A lady aged 35 years came to our clinic with the complaint of recurrent UTI since last one years and undergone  different modalities since last 1 year.

Pain usually at the close of urination. So we suspected that it may be case of cystitis.

We examined and cultured the urine

Urine R/E  – Pus 10-12

Urine culture : 106 Lakhs Pseudomona bacilli/ml urine

This bacilli is resistant to many allopathic medicines like Genta mycin, Norfloxacin,Ciprofloxacin, Ofloxacin etc…

Based on the available symptom we had prescribed Sulphur 10M and repeated the Urine culture after 15 days.

Report Shows : No presence of bacteria in the given sample.

Symptoms : In addition to the dysuria, patient has heaviness of head,pain in the right knee aggravation on squatting, risining from sitting, with cracks in knee . Chronic leucorrhoea aggravates before and after menses, which is milky white with itching – for this she tried lot of Allopathy and Ayurveda. Tenia versicolor on the back. Vertigo with double vision.

All these complaints also ameliorated much with this medicine

Conclusion : Never be afraid on Diagnostic terminologies. But treat on symptom similiarity. Homeopathy is effective in acute and pathological conditions.
