My husband has IBS and was cured by homeopathy. Can one pill really do all that?

According to his doctor, it's a rare form. A lot of his weakness was from fluid loss. He's had lots of drugs. Prednisone helped initially, but later he got worse. He tried acupuncture and a couple of other things. Then he saw a homeopath. He took a pill (he had to stop drinking coffee), and was a lot better after 2 weeks. It's been more than a month, and he's symptom-free after 10 years. It started after his first wife died, and the homeopath said he was also treating my husband's grief. My husband's convinced about homeopathy, but...one pill? (I'm a nurse.)

  1. Yes...HOmeo works wonders..Even my mum had this thing called IBS and she was helped by homeo and also Yoga..Pranayama


  2. iterative bowl sysdrom does NOT goaway with one pill  diet HAS to be changed, prednisone only cause trouble down the road from side effects

  3. Caffeine might have been the key to his IBS.....

    I am a skeptic myself as a RN...But sometimes, belief is more important that treatment.

  4. You can rest assured your husband's IBS cure is permanent, with or without coffee, believing or disbelieving. In his case, his longstanding grief created a susceptibility. For healing, both needed to be cured.

    That's the power of a homeopathic remedy, customized to each person. Think of the pellet as setting into motion the domino that unwinds symptoms accumulated over time, providing the spark to rekindle dying embers.

    Your question is both the reason that homeopathy draws support, as well as opposition.

    This scenario is precisely what led me beyond mainstream medicine, to train as a homeopath myself. This common result in homeopathy has the potential to negate a lifetime committed to comparatively inadequate patient care, both alternative and conventional. Everything I believed was turned on its head, and it took a notable while before I was able to fully "wrap my mind around it."

    However, I now have a resource that parallels and/or exceeds that which is possible not only by conventional standards, but in psychotherapy and even veterinary care - short of, although often preventing in each case, the need for surgery.

    By the way, even years into our marriage - my own husband's headaches and exophthalmus permanently cured, his thyroid regulated with homeopathy - he continued to identify himself as a skeptic. Just the other day, after I saw your question, I asked if he was still skeptical.  "Nooooooo," he said. "But, I believe homeopathy needs to be balanced with other check-ups." I agreed, so said, "But, you only see your doctor for your annual thyroid test. You haven't needed to go to anything else." He smiled and said, "I know."

    So, while quieter, his skeptic still lives. Skepticism is a healthy character trait to employ in all facets of living. You might say, however, that my husband's time-tested skepticism no longer considers homeopathy a viable target. It now serves, rather than limits, him.

    You might be interested in talking with other nurses whose skepticism and efficacy with patients were both transformed by homeopathy:

    Feel free to write to me, too.

    EDIT - The remedy will also heal any chronic effects from fluid loss and, to the extent possible, mitigate any harmful effects from previous drugs. Homeopathy almost seems too easy - even to me,  these many years later. But, it is.

    (I might add that  homeopaths spend considerable time interviewing each new client, then in subsequent research, in order to determine which "pill" to recommend. A diagnosis is not even necessary, as each person's unique presenting symptoms and constitutional health are what, to a homeopath, will indicate the remedy for cure.)

    I hope you follow through. You won't regret it, and your life and that of your family's will change. Homeopathy brings about a fascinating paradigm shift. Limitations in health care dissolve, as certainly as the caterpillar on its journey to butterfly. Homeopathy is similarly beautiful and free.

  5. Sure! I have talked to people that have taken care of their IBS with a simple probiotic pill. Moreso than that is that homeopathy stimulate your body's natural healing responses whether you believe in it or not (kind of the idea of how inoculations work with your immune system).

    If you give your body what it needs to fix a problem, that pill may be all you need.
