Father Has Parkinson. Pressure Is Falling, Starts Shaking. Have Dementia. Less Appetite. Treatment?
My father 78 years age is suffering from parkinson & it is in a quite an advanced stage. Earlier it was deteriorating but was fine going to markets etc. Just 4 months back had orthostatic hypotenstion his pressure is falling drastically when he is standing up and then after waling for just a minute or so he starts shaking vigorously. We have shown to 3 neurologist given some medicine but still no improvement as such. Moreover he is having dementia was talking irrelevant things but still we were managing but now for the past two days he is just sleeping for atleast 18-20 hrs a day. He is taking very less food and whatever he is taking he is keeping inside his mouth and not swallowing. It is painful to see. I will jolt down the medicines he is taking-Syndopa 275 (1/2 tab 4 Times), Ropark 0.5 (1 tab 2 Times), Admenta 10 (1 tab 2 times), Galvus Met (50/500)-1 Tab, Nodon 2.5 (1 tab 2 Times), Aztor 10 (1 Tab), Floricort 0.1 (1 1/2 tab -in one day), Qutipin 25 ( Tab 1/2), Alfoo 10 (1 Tab), Syp Potklor (1 TSP- 4 Times), Tab Cognate (1 Tab alternate days) and Syp Somazina (1TSP 2 Times). He is taking so many medicines but still no improvement and one thing that is going on increasing is his aggressiveness. He is getting very angry when people scolds him or tells to eat he tries to hit him.
Very painful to see -pls pls any suggestion on this are welcome. How to improve on it atleast we want it in a manageable level knowing that he is in a advanced stage. But still feels that something may be wrong some medicines added or removed can help him out.

Hello friend,
"It is painful to see" - you have written.
I am a Homoeopath. As a doctor belonging to a different system of treatment, it is also painful to read your letter . You were made to believe that your father will be improving by the twelve medicines he is taking at present and hundreds of medicines might have been pushed into his system with the same assurances in the recent past. From experiences you should learn.
Dear friend, you are invited to imagine a train accident taken place because of the loose bolts connecting between two iron plates of the rails. it was a small problem to start with, which could have got repaired by an ordinary labourer with least technology, but a great calamity when the compartments of the fast running train got derailed and fell into a river killing hundreds and injuring thousands. It is painful to see and painful to read.
Your father had shown several simple symptoms in the past, but you were administering medicines which were very strong and addressing those symptoms and never trying to cure the disease. Disease is a very deep dynamic problem caused fundamentally by the genetic tendencies of an individual, we call them Miasms in Homoeopathy. They may be precipitated by the exciting life situations. Symptoms are manifested through mind and body symptoms. So a fundamental treatment taking into account his mental make up, physical make up and general make up was to be done in the initial period of his life.
My intention is not to give you further disappointments. But my advise is to drop or taper the quantity of chemical drugs administered into the weak body of your father and then to approach an expert Homoeopathic physician who can give relief for the suffering patient. He will pick up individualizing characteristic genetic symptoms shown by your father and will give safe and simple remedies, to bring him back to better mental attitudes and dispositions.
With best wishes for a rapid relief for your father through Homoeopathy,
Dr. C. J. Varghese
