Please don't think I am saying that such discussions are a bad idea, the threads we have are helpful but in the current structure are much more informal which I think is a good thing, I am sure that there are many existing fora that deal specifically with such issues and their membership is probably more appropriately qualified to provide meaningful advice rather than anecdotal stories of home remedies.
I would also add that for some people homeopathy et al works well for them where western medicine hasn't. I am not an advocate or a naysayer for either you have to take each on its merits and try to choose the least destructive path to a cure/ remedy.
