Where did I say "rubbish" to your experience? You have obviously been through a lot and I don't seek to diminish that in any way.
I called your claim that Nurofen was more addictive than heroin "rubbish". You now say that you made a mistake and were thinking of codeine.
Well, OK, up to a point - codeine is an opiate, derived from the opium poppy (as are heroin and morphine, of course). I'd always understood that it was the least addictive of the opiates - but let's see what you've got on the subject.
On a more general point, the opiates are very good pain killers which have been in use for many years and whose benefits, side effects and risks are well understood and documented.
All the scientific and medical evidence tells us that homeopathic dilutions are nothing but water.
They might not, of themselves, do you any harm but they cannot, in principle, do you any good either beyond the placebo effect.
(If, of course, you stop taking a coventional drug which might save your life, and take a homeopathic remedy instead, well...)
No dragon I said, nurofen takes longer to get out the system than heroin I meant codine does take longer not nurofen, I knew it ws one I called wrong, I admittied it. ITS CODINE that takes olnge ot go cold turkey on than heroin.
Rubbish bit you misread me, I didnt say you did, I really loathe having things taken out of context.
I said if you rubbish my experience as part of my own view on homeopathy from my indivdual experience of both sides of the medicine world, then you cant include your own either. Well I knew what I meant.
You not listening placing to much on small parts, not focusing on the whole, now you say your on ibropfen(if thats wrong pill I change it later) your not an addict, canyou be so sure bearing in mind alladdicts dont say they are until they wake up to it and admit it?(not saying your a liar either so dont go down that road, its a valid point raising issue)
As for the opiate did you read the article above I put up? My point is yes they are addictive ok not everyone will succumb but it is happening, Taking anything over a long peiod of time the body becomes dependent on it, you increase the amount to gain same relief Addiction has alrady taken hold,and bingo the body shuts down.
Nobody said Vallium/Prozac was and now look at the zombies it left in its wake?
Homeopathy yes its diluted, the feel good factor plays a big part in its not cure but healing, why?
Rough guess because you stop poisioning your body with normal medication taken after along period of time. No even I dont agree stop normal medication of its for a particular dangerous illness that is lunacy.
I aslo suggest talking to your own GPS. My own GP suggested I try it I did, did it work, made me sleep better, made me feel calmer than I had in along time, so yes it did for somethings. Then my body was filled with poisions for overdosing on pain killers and that includes morphine which doesnt even take the edge off my pain anymore.
You have the right to your view I respect each one, but when your backs against the wall and this is an alterative to at least try where is the harm if it is with a GP's knowledge granted to try?

I wouldnt say that. You want written assurances thats how you interact with things and feel comfortable with them in that form, but not all of life is like that.
