Since March I have suffered with bad headaches/ migraines and am currently under a neurologist, they have tried me on many types of tablets from blood pressure to pain killers and anti inflammatory type medication, so far nothing has worked. I can have then for days at a time, they keep me awake at night and make me slow and I lack concentration alot too. So much so I lost my job due to making errors and am now off sick. Any help or ideas on an altternative therapy would be good?

Well, I believe that fluoride - as hard as it is - is something I am going to try to avoid as much as possible. So, does anyone else with similar beliefs have any healthy alternatives that they have personally tried, and are easy on the palette and free from toxic chemicals?

I had three homeopathic formulas that worked very well for my allergies. I haven't needed them in a few months. Well, I went to look for them, and I found some homeopathic formulas... but I can't remember if they're the correct ones!

Are there any homeopathic experts out there who can tell me if the homeopathy I found is for allergies? Remember, there were three of them that worked together. (It's also possible that the three are lost somewhere else and these aren't correct.)

Euphrasia Officinalis (6)
Berberis Vulgaris (30)
Phosphorus (30)
Phosphorus (6)

Thank you!

My neighbor said there is an acupuncture practice where all of the needles go into the ears and that it isn't done in the US. She said it isn't the typical acupuncture that is done for illnesses.

We're talking serious fear here. Panic attacks when looks at pictures of spiders or even seeing plastic/toy spiders. She's even scared of the thought that she might just see a real one. (don't go there if she does see a real one!) I know it may sound funny, but this is a REAL fear.

I had too much junk food the other night, and now I've been throwing up a little and I feel sick. I don't have really severe neuasea, I just need to get rid of it fast. I heard ginger tea is a good remedy but we don't have any one hand, we do have peppermint tea. I heard it is also good for stomach problems. Is that true?

SD, I want my son to reach the maximum height he can be. He is 14 1/2 years old and 5 foot 9 inches. If the combo mentioned works, do I increase the potency ... example does Calcarea Phos 6x increase to 30 x ? How about Baryta carb 30 c... increase to what potency and for how many months?
Also: How soon will I be able to tell if a potency is working or not? How many pills in a single dose ?
My husband is 5 foot 10, and my older son is 5 foot 11, my brother is 6 ft 1 inch.

Please help with any advice on alternative homeopathic remedies such as ginseng, valarian etc, anything that could help someone who is gradually detoxing from serious drug addictions. I have been reunited with a family member who lives abroad and discovered he has been addicted for 30 years to heroin, and is now on 150ml methadone per day, 20 tablets of diazepam (5mg) and nitrazepam (5mg) 20 tabs per day, plus other pills for sleeping and stomach problems. He now really wants to get clean but can't do cold turkey as he could die thorugh this option aparently? He also has hepatitus b and c and has a poor liver now.
Please help, advice is much appreciated! He lives in Scandinavia and there are no centres locally.

I live in Canada & although I haven't been diagnosed with cancer I was just wondering what would happen if someone was & they refused conventional treatments because they wanted to persue an alternative approach. I've heard of people being forced into it in the US.

Urinary tract infection aka bladder infection. I got this a week ago and have been taking AZO from over the counter at Wal-Mart. I also have been upping my usual dosage of cranberry juice on top of cranberry tablets. It has been years since I got one of these and I wonder if there's an better herb that can tackle this immediately. I don't believe in going to doctors for something I can doctor myself.
