A 13 year baby with galactosemia

[Dr. Abdul Sattar]

Hi every one
I have a baby patient of 13 months old who is suffering from
galactosemia a disorder in which one cannot digest the lactose (sugar).
Kindly give some details about the disorder and some treatements in
homoeopathy.

I usually use Aethusa or Calc carb the most and always is good esp. the
Aethusa BUT the baby will also have a deficiency of amalyse so consider this
as a nutrient for the mother if she is feeding or for the baby if it is
bottle feed?

Surely bottle feeding would be less desirable than simply having the mother
avoid milk? Milk is certainly not necessary for the mother, but *so much*
in mother's milk is so necessary for the baby!

sorry do not understand your question? The deficiency is an issue whether
the mother is having milk in her diet or not ? I wasn't assuming she was
even having milk? and the easiest way to help the baby with her own milk (
if she is breast feeding BUT we do not know that?)is that the mother take it
as a nutrient supplement if she is still breast feeding. I feel a bit
ackward as this is not homoeopathic advice but it does help the baby with
being able to digest milk which is why I suggested it. Is that OK?

Sorry, I misread your post! My garbled mistake -- I should never send a
post when I am in a hurry!
