Homeopathy and HIV
I have treated many hundreds of HIV+ patients, mostly patients who are already on anti-retroviral treatment (“combination therapy”). I have a special interest in HIV/AIDS both as a physician and as a gay person.
Homeopathy can be very effective in treating:
- The emotional effects of being HIV positive
- Side effects from conventional treatment (nausea, diarrhea, peripheral neuropathy, liver deficiency, fatigue etc)
- Long-term dependency on steroids or antibiotics
Homeopathy can also help you if you don’t need any medication yet. By keeping you healthy and balanced it might slow disease processes down but it CANNOT REPLACE ANTI-RETROVIRALS IF YOU NEED THEM.
Being such a deep disease HIV needs deep treatment – me and my colleagues in the Maun Homeopathy Project in Africa constantly develop, improve and test treatment protocols that match the power HIV/AIDS.
Rather than the normal procedure of prescribing single remedies, with long intervals between them, which is suitable for most conditions, HIV+ patients are normally prescribed three remedies, which are repeated often.
Our clinical results in treating HIV are excellent – most patients show marked improvement on both the emotional and physical planes within 2-3 consultations.
Case Illustration
Man, 42 years old, HIV+, on HAART, CD4 - 340. Complains of loss of erection, loss of pigmentation of the skin in patches, anxieties about his health and future, unable to deal with the implications of the diagnosis.
Prescription: Agnus Castus 30 to address the sexual issue, Arsenicum 1M for the anxieties and Carcinosin 200 to address the skin symptoms and the feeling of hopelessness. Each remedy once a week for 4 weeks. Reaction: after a month the patient is considerably better. Due to the depth of the case treatment has to be continued for a long while, and the remedies changed often. After 12 months, back at work, he reduces clinic visits to once every 3 months. CD4 is 470, and no further conventional medication is needed apart from HAART.
