I, ADJ, from India, was suffering from severe constipation since last 6-7 years. It was associated with generalized weakness and heaviness in the abdomen. I was facing difficulty in gaining weight. My stools were semi-solid, sticky, hard and required straining. It was associated with low appetite, low feeling and vague body aches. Due to these complaints I was mentally sad and depressed, would have lot of negative thoughts. I was losing interest in my studies. Within 3 months of starting the treatment, I could experience a very good response. My constipation was much better, hardness of stools reduced, there was infrequent fullness of abdomen and stools would only be occasionally unsatisfied. The weakness and low feeling reduced, depression was much better. I started having positive thoughts and my interest in studies also improved. With 8 months of treatment; My appetite improved and there was gradual weight gain. The stools were much satisfied and normal in consistency with no cosntipation. The depression and negative thoughts reduced and my approach to wards life became more positive.

RKK: 16442: lichen planus: india Punjab: Since last 10 years I have been suffering from Oral LP, I started developing dark purplish spots in my mouth with severe itching and burning which was more on taking hot and spicy food. My LP was spreading and I started developing the LP spots on my genitals, nails and skin. The eruptions were severely itchy, blackish ugly and made me feel under confident and dirty about myself. In last 10 years I have shown to atleast 10 Dermatologist Dr but in vain. All of them would start me on oral or injectable steroids and strong medicines like Dapsone with which the LP would reduce to some extent, however the nail changes and the LP in the genitals and mouth would never go off completely and once I stopped these medicines the eruptions would erupt back with vengeance. I was fed up with this condition and I kept blaming my smoking habit for the LP to come back again. With 2 months of medicines from Dr Shah’s clinic, there is remarkable improvement in the both side of cheek inside the mouth. The oral lesions are reducing by 40 % and there is 80% improvement in the genital lesion. Initially even slightest touch to the genitals caused a lot of pain and discomfort, which is now 80% better. The LP lesions on the legs and arms are drying up and are now less in number, they are becoming dry and flat. The nails are clearing up and are shiny which is like a miracle for me as I was getting habituated to having deformed nails. I am able to take hot and spicy food without much discomfort. There is significant change in my LP, I have never felt so good, as the spots are clearing up and making me feel very healthy. Thank you Dr Shah for giving back my confidence.
