Every year I go to India. Before my departure I prepare a medicine box to take it along for the journey. I think it necessary for me for any type of emergency in the plane or on the way. I keep my medicine box as compact as I can for I have to take it with me in the plane. There are only 64 slots in the box so I take as many medicines. These are proportioned as 38 Bach Flower Remedies, 2 Rescue Remedies, and 24 Homeopathic remedies. I fill up all the vials to their full capacity keeping in mind the variety and volume of infections in India. I do not want to be sick on the way or struck in India with flue, food poisoning, Water Borne Diseases, Dog-bites, Bee-stings, Dengue, Covid, Malaria, heart disease, hemiplegia, shock and allergies. Even jet-lag, insomnia, tiredness, body aches and change of climate have to be treated should they occur. I do not use all these medicines on me as I have a large number of other sick people waiting for me at the the destination to be attended. I do not refuse medicine to anyone if I have it. But if I finished, I have to send the to the market to purchase.
Last time I prepared the box in the middle of October and now prepared again in January this year. In the last three months I have been taking all medicine for me as well as for others from this box only. To have an idea about how much medicine has been consumed in the last three months, I checked the vials and found that three vials were completely empty and 36 totally completely full. The remaining 24 were reduced in contents to various degrees. That means on an average, I consumed 12 vials in 3 months or 4 vials per month. Assuming that I alone consumed half the medicine, I used only 2 vials for myself in a month. These vials are so small that they would cost less than a rupee in India and a dollar in the United States. It is so negligible that I can boast of having a zero monthly bill for medicine.
