On 11/09/21: she developed coryza and a running nose, while 22/09/21: brought relief in burning P/R, though she experienced back spasms and fidgety feet.
Her struggles continued with intense hair loss and facial swelling on 09/10/21 : and occasional P/R pain was noted on 20/10/21: accompanied by low B12 and iron levels. On 03/11/21: she complained of epigastric pain, left thumb pain, and overall body heaviness. Improvements followed on 12/11/21: with 75% relief in P/R burning and better control over other symptoms.
