Not homeopathy for me OP, but herbal and traditional remedies have worked for chronic conditions, in my experience. I could go into some detail if you like, re: the herbal stuff, but I don’t have a full list as it was years ago and tailor made at the time by a herbalist. My husband kept calling her the witch doctor, until he saw massive improvement in my symptoms. Diet is a massive part of healing, but even things like acupuncture, regular deep tissue massage, flotation tanks etc have all gone some ways towards dealing with my auto-immune/chronic pain issues. I think that the dismissal of traditional remedies by today’s society is a real shame. They don’t work on everything, but people were more in touch with themselves and with their bodies in ancient times. There are things that work for certain conditions and things that don’t. If I was ever diagnosed with cancer or something equally as scary, I would absolutely turn to modern medicine. I would also compliment that with any other traditional medicine that could make me feel better, and include diet in that category too. Diet may not ‘cure’ huge illnesses, or prevent any illness coming your way, but people’s distain for diet as a way to improve health is something that’s always baffled me. You wouldn’t give a baby McDonalds as it’s first finger food, people whinge about bread and butter and an apple being cruel to a child, but if someone suggests a good clean diet full of antioxidant-rich foods, it’s laughed off as quackery.
I understand your frustrations OP. You can only get so far with modern medicine. Contrary to popular belief, there isn’t a magic bullet for every condition known to man. Chronic illness and pain conditions are very real, and largely misunderstood - even by doctors.
I remember getting a diagnosis years ago, and listening and then asking what treatment there was. The answer, “none really, just day to day management of the condition”. Ok, so you then wonder what does management of the condition look like in real terms? Well.... nothing!
