Common Questions and Answers about Gastroenteritis and homeopathy

gastroenteritis

Avatar n tn t have much anxiety but am emotionally more or less flat, feel sleepy all the time and am obsessive about my problem. Has homeopathy worked for anyone in the long run and can anyone give hope that I will get out of this rut?
Avatar n tn I went up there and took her to the doctor and she was basically told is was a stomach virus (gastroenteritis) drink plenty of fluids and it should go away in a couple of days but when I look up Gastroenteritis it says that it's common in people with weaken immune system caused by HIV. She took her 3 month birth control shot the morning before but I'm sure that didn't cause Gastroenteritis. My question is should I be concerned about HIV at this point.
Avatar n tn My daughter is 14 months old and she has has watery diarrhea and vomitting. When she was born she was perfectly healthy, but once I had to return to work I began to give her formula and that's when she began to have these complications. She began to have watery diarrhea and vomit. I took her to the doctor and they said she had gastroenteritis, but it's been a while now and she is still the same? Does anyone know what could possibly be wrong? Thank you.
Avatar n tn Hello! I seem to have unfortunately caught gastroenteritis. I was given Ondansentron and it helped immensely. However, I can't sleep. I'm so wired and my stomach still hurts but luckily, no side effects. Is this normal? Is it the gastroenteritis or the drug?
Avatar f tn (The hollow right under your ribs, in your upper stomach) Other symptoms include nausea, vomiting, fever, malaise and general aches and pains. For most people symptoms subside within 1-3 days but you're contagious much longer. You can still pass the virus through your stool for 2 weeks or so and it can survive on surfaces for a long time too. Just take it easy, eat bland foods and rest a lot.
Avatar f tn hi, i tried homeopathy for a while for my anxiety, and in my opinon it did make a difference...it is a lot safer and works well. the only reason i didnt go with it for long ws because i was already on lexapro for a long time. but once i taper and completely stop lexapro, i am planning on switching to homepathy. i defineltly feel it is a lot safer, fewer side effects, and just uncomplicated and goes down well. might be worth giving it a shot.
Avatar f tn I will sincerely advise you to consult a physician and get these possibilities ruled out one by one.Detailed and comprehensive lab and radiological testing is required to confirm a diagnosis. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
Avatar f tn Every day since I went to the hospital to get checked out I was found out with gastroenteritis and 1 week later taking pills it went away. Now ever since then I've been going to the bathroom and what I've. Noticed is that my poop is yellow and floats. I think I may have malabsorption but I'm not to sure. I'd go to the doctor but my parents wouldn't wanna take me as I had gone to the doctor 4 weeks ago. I'm 14 and I'm overweight for my age. I'm 210 Pounds.
1075109 tn?1281835691 If you see a naturopath, they should know of these contraindications, but again, it depends on who you see and how good they are. And doctors are downright ignorant and hostile to natural medicine, so they have no interest in these problems, for the most part. But if you google any remedy you're considering, you should find a site that includes the theoretical contraindications. Again, best of luck in your search.
Avatar f tn Doctors were planning to start me on methotrexate but I decided to try homeopathy and my homeopathy doctor gave me Silicea 30 in the beginning and for a month I did not see any major changes but after that she repeated the medicine and in higher dose as well Silicea 200 (three doses) and I started to see big improvement in pain and lumps, lesions drained itself some formed the opening on the surface without surgical intervention and some just drained internally into the circulatory system.
Avatar m tn nothing but i dont think homeopathy can work on hbv
Avatar f tn Viral gastroenteritis symptoms may appear 1-3 days after you are infected and can range from mild to severe. Symptoms usually last just a day or two, but occasionally they may persist as long as 10 days. Because the symptoms are similar, it is easy to confuse diarrhea caused by viruses with diarrhea caused by bacteria (e.g., Clostridium difficile, salmonella, and E. coli) or parasites (e.g., giardia). If your symptoms persist, see your doctor for further workup and management.
Avatar m tn You should ask your question in the Alternative Therapries forum regarding homeopathy. http://www.medhelp.org/forums/Alternative-Therapies-/show/685?camp=msc&personal_page_id=862156 Can't tell you if homeopathy is better than placebos nor if it includes any active ingredients at extreme dilutions. Homeopathy is not supported by science therefore the redirection to the Alternatives Therapies forum with higher chances of having people with experiences in homeopathic remedies.
Avatar f tn because i was said it can lead to serious heart and kidney problems.. so is homeopathy treatment better? because it is said that this treatment works very slow . i want to continue homeopathy so i want your suggestion whom to consult??
Avatar m tn Years ago I suffered hydrocelli, fluid had accumulated in left side testicle sac , a specialist recomended surgery as the only option. After a week of discomfort and anxiety, I consulted a homoeopath, he gave me the pills and asked me either lie down or walk (no standing at one place, no sitting) for two days. On the second day and 4th dose of pills I could feel the fluid actually moving in from the sac towards abdomen, In 4 days everything was normal. 2.
Avatar f tn I went to the doc after 5 days. He said its just viral gastroenteritis. I looked up the condition and it says you have vomiting and/or diarrhea, but i have neither. I am worried it is appendicitis, but the appendix is on the right side, not left. I am really in pain but i am taking my meds as described. Does this sound like viral gastroenteritis to you? I am in such severe pain just laying here typing this and barely moving.. Please help. Thank you.

I no this as i suffer from acid reflux myself. The term Gastroenteritis springs to mind as you say you have been sick and been havin toilet issues. This usually clears up within a few days and its like havin a flu virus or stomach bug.
Avatar f tn I am also seeing a chiro, P.T. and massage thetapist...
Avatar n tn As to any homeopathy treatments, I am not sure, I would do a google search, and, if possible, contact a Naturopath, they will be able to let you know for sure.
4978800 tn?1361847735 What do you mean by homeopathy? Do you mean something diluted with water down to nothing? That's a big no. If you mean something else, I'd have to know what. Honestly though, replacement hormones are what are used to treat thyroid disorders. Things like diet and exercise and proper sleep might help, but it's not a treatment.
Avatar f tn That being said consider that the placebo effect is strong and it could help you but since i just told you homeopathy is not working and is not supported by science I jus induced a nocebo effect. Anyway I have something for you to try and it's called Pycnogenol. It is supported by science with over 200 research papers on PubMed and it works wonders for a lot of condition. You can buy it at your local health food store or even at cosco i heard...
Avatar m tn when i went to the emergency room they first gave me an x-ray and said my pancreas was swolen then they gave me a contrast ct-scan in wich the said my boweld were swolen they diagnosed me with collitis. when i went and saw a gastro. specialist he ruled out the collitis and said it was gastroenteritis he told me to continue the levaquin i was prescribed.
