GOODPASTURE’S DISEASE TREATMENT THROUGH HOMEOPATHY

Goodpasture’s disease is a combination of acute glomerulonephritis and pulmonary symptoms that is to say haemoptysis and haematuria occur together in a person. This syndrome caused due to the formation of antibodies known as anti- glomerular basement antibodies.

It is a rare, life-threatening autoimmune disease that affects the lungs and the kidneys. It happens when the immune system mistakenly attacks a protein called collagen because it recognizes it as a foreign substance. In Goodpasture syndrome, the body produces proteins (antibodies) that attach to the collagen in certain parts of the lungs and the kidneys. When they attach to the collagen, these antibodies cause severe inflammation and destruction of those tissues.

SIGN AND SYMPTOMS:

• Difficulty breathing, chest pain, cough and a rattling noise when taking a breath.
• Nosebleeds and coughing up blood.
• Pale skin (pallor)
• Blood in urine (hematuria).
• Decrease in urine (pee).
• High blood pressure.
• Nausea and vomiting.

TREATMENT: Homoeopathic treatment requires a deep constitutional analysis. The history of the disease, the family medical history, physical and mental characteristics of the patient, the likes and dislikes, medication details are all taken into consideration. This approach stands in consonance with the homoeopathic convention: Well selected Homoeopathic remedies are effective for Goodpasture’s disease.
