I became interested in Homeopathy 30 years ago in Norwich, whilst living in a community. The women used homeopathy for many minor ailments and cuts and bruises. I remember rescue remedy cream being sold in small round plastic tubs! We used to get our supplies from Mr Lincoln the chemist, who was helpful and whose advice we valued.

Many years ago my neighbour had terrible earache, she had been unwell and in pain for 2 days. After visiting the Dr she was diagnosed with accute otisi media and received a prescription. She was in pain. I gave her pulsatilla, which didn't work, then switched to belladonna. The result was astounding, within ten minutes her ear had popped, she became hot and flushed and her pain completely disappeared. She did not require the antibiotics.

The academic hospital could not find a cure (1987) and sent me home to die, probably within 1,5-2 years. And then I met someone who was cured from a disease by homeopathy. So I decided to try myself.

After 9 months of homeopathic treatment my liver had fully recovered from the disease and I was declared inexplicably cured from non A/non B Hepatitis, now Hepatitis C.

I met a lovely woman on holiday and later discovered she is a homeopath. Lots of positive feedback from people she had treated made me confident I could approach her with my problems. Thank goodness I did.

My energy has returned, I have a far more positive outlook on life, am taking care of my diet and exercise regularly. All of those things had been lost during my "down" period.
