(a) To help my son's hayfever. (b) To find a less toxic way of dealing with an appalling hangover! One of my closest friends, is a practising homeopath, and I thought I'd give it a go.

(a) Apis worked immediately to relieve the acute hayfever symptoms of my son when he was a toddler. It reduced his puffy eyes and stopped him sneezing. (b) Nux vomica cleared my head and dealt with my nausea immediately.

My mother took me aged 13 as I had terrible hayfever and nothing the doctor did helped. The homeopathy cured the hayfever and helped a lot with allergies and asthma. I later suffered from anxiety and depression and homeopathy has been the most effective treatment and I have tried everything including conventional medication.

It has cured hayfever, allergies, asthma, injuries of all kinds, infections, teething problems, tonsillitis, warts/verrucas, ringworm, emotional problems, coughs, flu. My kids haven't needed to take an antibiotic or other conventional medicine (including calpol) more than once or twice and they are 12 and 8.

First found homeopathy when I suffered debilitating panic attacks. Aconite brought me back to myself.

I haven't taken any conventional medicine for years, homeopathy works brilliantly for every condition I've had. Shingles sorted out with Mezereum, that same day! 'Flu helped enormously by Baptisia and other remedies. My son has only homeopathic remedies. My husbands chronic hayfever is a thing of the past due to homeopathy.

Since childbirth it would be advisable to be followed by a homeopath. Lucky the babies who are! I was a child when I heard abut homeopathy which principle I found very interesting

I have been benefited by homeopathy in a long series of coryza, hayfever, sinusites, recurrent flu and awful dysmenorrhea

I suddenly developed pollen allergi. I tried the medicin the doctor gave me, which just made i worse. So i started searching the internet to find a soluction.

The first time was because I suddenly developed pollen allergi. I tried the medicin the doctor gave me, which just made i worse. The homeopath gave me 3 pills to take over 3 weeks. It worked wonders. it´s now 15 years ago and i have not had any symptoms since. I´ve since used it for a variety of things.

Did not want to take steroids every Spring.

I grew up on the coast in Cornwall & never suffered from hayfever. However at age 28 I moved to London. Every year for about 6 years in April I would feel unwell, with a cough that seemed to always develop into a chest infection & I would be ill for over a month. One April there was a locum doctor at the surgery & she told me I was suffering from hayfever, most likely due to a combination of tree pollen & pollution! She prescribed a nasal spray & hayfever tablets. I collected these & they relieved my symptoms but I saw that the nasal spray contained a steroid which I did not want to use. I researched homeopathic remedies for hayfever / coughs & discovered gelsemium. It works fantastically - when I feel the first signs of hayfever I take some gelsemium & the symptoms don't develop any further. I've not suffered from hayfever for the last 10 years although I got a slight bout this year as I mis-judged my early symptoms as a cold so it took a bit longer for the gelsemium to take effect but it was still gone in 4 days, a lot better than four weeks of chest infection like the bad old days.

I have used homeopathy for many years for all sorts of first aid, colds, flu, upset stomach and know that it works.

After the treatment given to me last year by a homeopath I did not get hay fever at all, the first time for more years than I can remember, and so far I am not suffering from hay fever this year either.

I used homeopathy whilst I worked as a nurse. I had a small baby at the time, and developed severe sinusitis, followed by hayfever in the following summer. It was obvious that my immunity was low. After several courses of antibiotics, which only gave partial relief, and the hayfever became so severe, I decided that I had to do something different. Reading through the NCT Magazine, I read a piece about homeopathy and became interested. After a few months of treatment, the sinusitis cleared completely, never to return, and even more amazing...the year after I did not have any hayfever either.

I have not had any sinusitis or hayfever since 1994 - great feeling, and I do not take any medication at all. I did not change my life style in any way; all I did different was to see a professional homeopath and take homeopathic remedies to build up my immune system. My son was brought up on homeopathy, and hardly ever consulted the GP or took chemical drugs. My husband is a convert, and tells everyone about it. I gave up my Nursing career, and became a registered professional homeopath. Over the past 17 years I have built up my practice mainly through word of mouth.
