Does anybody know if using homepathic medicine can relieve the symptoms of cancer? Has anybody tried it and what was your experience?
Thank you.

Homeopathic remedies are based on naturally occuring substances, be they animal vegetable or mineral. We don't question the benefits of peppermint to relieve wind and dock leaves to relieve the pain of nettle stings. There is a wealth of natural remedies that we have come to ignore and call old wives tales because we believe so much in the pharmaceutical industry for the relief of all our ills. I have first hand experience for myself and my family as to the benefits of homeopathic medecine. A reputable homeopathic doctor would not have you believe that they can cure cancer or any other major disease , but they can work alongside your doctor and your medication to help alleviate symptoms and side effects.

I'm afraid there is very little evidence to support the fact that homeopathy can alleviate side effects of cancer - it is more a placebo efect. I would certainly not depend on it and put my faith in conventional medicine.
