Chest Congestion, Fever, Tiredness, Breathing Difficulties, Had Blood Allergy. Taken Atarax. What Is The Reason?
Dear Doctor
My son who is 5 years old suffers from a chest congestion most times of the year. Sometimes this gets aggravated with fever and slight coughing. The pediatrician asks us to give him Levolin 0.63 respules 3-4 times a day and Budecort 0.5 respules 2 times a day for 10-15 days when such an episode happens. It is seen that there is recovery that relives him of the immediate stress, but the persistent congestion, which I feel most when i place my hand on his back when he sleeps continues almost all the year through. I notice that he has become lethargic and tires easily. I also had a blood allergy test (general) done which showed high range. But specific test was ruled out by the local doctor as he feels that children this age would show allergies for multiple things which they shall build immunity with age.
Along with the nebulisation, i also give him a anti-allergic like atarax or alerid one spoon, once a day. But all this has not elimated the congestion.
Let me also mention that both myself and my son have beta thalassimia, and I also suffer from breathing difficulties at times.
Please suggest a possible way forward towards recovery. Incase I need to have any tests done. Does the prolonged use of Levolin and Bedecort have any side effects? Thanks

If a child with the above symptoms had presented himself in my clinic, I would have taken the following steps:
1. Stop junk food, aerated drinks, chocolates, chips and all outside food.
2. Have given him Cap. Tulasi once a day, Cap. Vasaka once a day, and Cap. Guduchi once a day.
3. Teach him how to relax when the episode of asthma occurs.
4. Done a thorough energy healing all over the body concentrating specially on the solar plexur, throat chakra and the ajna chakra.
If the treatment is done regularly, the patient sees a tremendous improvement in his health within one month. And there is no side effects with the above line of treatment.
I do an online free healing session to let the patient know the effectiveness of the Energy Healing Session.
