Mr. R. R. J. visited Life Force on 6th October 2012. His daughter was being treated for Lichen Planus by Dr. Shah and had found good recovery in few months. So Mr. R. R. J. decided to start his treatment for Migraine with Dr. Shah. His patient identification number is 20021. He was a 40 years old gentleman. He was an engineer having a manufacturing unit of electronic control automated systems. He was suffering from severe, incapacitating headaches, since 10 – 15 years. The headache was usually associated with acidity. The frequency would vary from five days in a week to once in 15 – 20 days. There were several triggering factors for this like stress, irregular meal timings, skipping the meals, sun exposure, anxiety, fasting, light, noise and loss of sleep. He would get some relief by sleeping and tight pressure. He would take as and when required pain killers and antacids. Sometimes he would require 4 – 5 pain killers in a week. He was fed up of taking these pain killers which in turn would increase his acidity and cause stomach upset.

He would also get frequent throat infections since 1 – 2 years. There would be cold and sneezing along with throat infections. It would be once a month for 2 – 4 days. It would get aggravated due to cold food, oily and outside food.

He was reserved and introvert. He would not express his anger and stop talking to the person. He would later feel guilty about his behavior.
