Marie complained that she now lacked energy and found it hard to get
going. She described thinking as trying to “wade through porridge” and said
her memory was hopeless. On top of that, she was irritable and moody. Her
husband was taking the brunt of these changes, and their marriage was
under strain.
Regular pulsating migraines were also a problem. They would occur on the
right side of Marie’s head, beginning in the neck and moving upwards to
settle in her forehead and eye. Many times, Marie felt nauseated with the
migraine. Belching or vomiting would relieve the pain but only for a short
time. She would also crave sour things and want to lie in the dark. Once
asleep, the migraine would pass. Not so long ago, Marie had been getting
these migraines once a week but since beginning the menopause they had
been less frequent and not so intense.
Not long after our previous phone call, Marie had been taken by surprise
with a migraine. Where recent ones had been relatively mild, this one was
intense – just like those she used to suffer from before the hot flushes
began. Also, her right shoulder had been painful for a few days, just as it
had been all those years ago before treated by a cortisone injection by her
doctor. Marie was now concerned that these events could be a sign of
things to come. She could still remember how painful those days had been
and there was no way she wanted to return to them.
Another unusual thing was that although Marie’s asthma had improved, it
had been replaced by hay fever – something she had not had since her mid
20’s. Marie told me that hay fever had been a serious problem for her
during her childhood. She had used “masses of medication” just to get
through school. At the age of 26, surgery had been performed to remove
the nasal polyps caused by it. Thankfully, the hay fever had settled not long
after and since then she had been completely free of the burning, itching
and sneezing – until now!
Other problems that had returned from the past included dizziness that
occurred when Marie turned her head suddenly and painful heartburn after
an evening meal. Although these symptoms had returned for one day only,
Marie was concerned they could return in full. What was going on?
Previous tutorials have explained how we work against our body’s efforts
to heal itself by choosing medicines that suppress rather than support our
symptoms. While suppression will make us feel better for the short-term, it
can not heal deep energetic imbalances. Instead, suppression creates the
very thing we are trying to avoid – deteriorating health. It weakens our
vitality making us less resistant to disease and other health problems in the
future.
Her hay fever from had never truly been healed, but only partially
suppressed. With this outlet no longer available, Marie’s Vital Force had to
find a new way to relieve its energetic imbalance. It chose nasal polyps.
When the polyps were surgically removed, another outlet was found:
asthma.
