Health Issues is a general health based blog concentrating on multiple health topics.

Shiv Nath belonged to a well-to-do family in Peshawar (Pakistan). But when he came as a refugee to Amritsar in 1947, he was a destitute in the true sense of the word. He had lost all elder relatives and landed here with an aged mother and two young sisters with literally no assets. He was perforce required to work hard to earn a living. In time he earned quite a bit of money, but had inculcated such busy routine of life that he had no time for rest.

Besides, he had in a very hard way learnt the value of money in present-day modern life and had an innate desire to earn more money so that he could be ‘one up’ from his School days chum Srinath who had refused to recognize him when he was poor and friendless.

Shiv Nath worked and earned more and more money -only sky was the limit. In this senseless pursuit of riches, he worked like a machine day in and day out without a moments rest, till his body could no longer obey the dictates of his mind due to fatigue.

He lost his appetite, could not sleep at night, became very tense and irritable. Muscular tension caused pain on every movement and he started having attacks of migraine. Allopathic pain-killers could only give temporary relief. He started pining, losing flesh and weight. Fear gripped him when he realised that there was nobody to look after him if he became incapacitated due to total break-down of health which looked imminent.

He was given Mimulus (for fear) and Vervain Remedy (for over zealousness), and got quick relief in all his physical troubles. After one week, there was no apprehension or fear of the future left in his mind. Therefore, Mimulus was discontinued. Vervain Remedy was continued T.D.S for 12 weeks to rationalize his over-zealousness on healthy lines when he could be called as cured physically and mentally.
