For semi-avoid of these problem; your wife must be serve honey bee hive products - homeopathic remedies might be enter stress to her, because their natures and effects on miasma and vital force in organisms.
Royal Jelly mixed with Thymus vulgaris ( common thyme, German thyme, garden thyme or just thyme ) honey 50:50 - 50 grams of R.J + 500 grams of Thymus vulgaris; serving 2 soup spoon every morning, 1 hour before serving breakfast + 1 tsp. Raw Pollen in the noon + 1 tsp. Processed Propolis before dinner - these recent two items are as the first item.
Beside these, Hypericum perforatum, known as Perforate St John's-wort, Common Saint John's wort and St John's wort + Rose Essence Drops - 30 drps. 45 mins. before each and every meal serving * 3 is very helpful for reduction of Anxiety State in her.
Supportive therapy + Aromatherapy ( Warm Odors or Smell ) as daily is so good for her and will increase her " Life Expectancy " senses.
Follow-up after 15 days.
