Homeopathy for eczema
- Thread starter YKY
- Start date
YKY, you can only get from Mannings that have a Pharmacy section. Sorry if I wasn't clear enough in my last post. I used to buy mine from the Mannings next to H & M, Central, and it is located on the shelf in front of the Pharmacy counter (do ask pharmacist). Pink can with teddy bear at side, $73 for one can.
apologies for delay in responding - we were away. We get Neocate direct from the HK distributor. Speak to a Ms Lo (mobile: 8103 3329, office:2827 1616).
For all those who use skin prick tests, our allergist only conducts blood tests since it's simpler on a young child and just as accurate. It's quicker and whilst there is pain and suffering involved, it's only a short period. We would have no ability to hold a toddler still for skin pricks and we only do them once a year, not every 6 months since it depends on the results and shld not be done as a matter of course.
perhaps you could ask your doctors about the RAST tests?
It's difficult to say what exactly is the catalyst for the ezcema going away (ezcema cream, drugs or diet) since we started them all at the same time when we change our PD. hope this helps

Sorry, YKY, missed your last Q - the poo changes if there's an allergic reaction - it gets watery. Also poo changes when u take Neocate - it looks a lot like he's taking iron supplements but it's normal. When he got older (ie past 1) we switched to neocate advance which has more appropriate nutrients for a toddler. let me know if I may be of further help
Is your homeopath named Mr. Bradshawin IMI. My girl has taking the treatment nearly two months. After taking the test, he said my girl is allergy to cow milk, sea food and dairy products. He advised me to drink goat milk and probiotics named Symbiotique. But I find that the ingrediate of the probiotics may contain dairy. As my girl is flare-up for this three weeks, so I stop the probiotics and use another probitics which is dairy free. After takeing the treatment, I found that my girl's eczema is more severe. I am considering to change another homepath.
sorry, i just started checking this thread again. i put ovus cream on 3 times a day, and if it's an excema patch that's been there for a long time, it took a week for it to start dissapating. if it just started, it take about 2 days.
but frankly, i don't know whether it's "lucky doctor treats the end of the illness" (u know we have a cantonese saying that goes like that).
the one who really helped m daughter was her reiki healer. if you're interested, pm me & i'll give you the contact no. but she's always away & quite booked up.

Nikkiliu - just want to share my experience at IMI with the same homeopath at IMI. My son (now 6 1/2 months) was also diagnosed at 4 months with cow milk and soy milk allergy and recommended goats milk. Also, rhus tox 6c, Symbiotics, fishoil. Situation got bad with flareups. I went back and Graeme wasn't around, so I saw Tej who prescribed granite and zinc. Situation got even worse. This was all within 3-4 weeks. I continued with the treatment but after no progress, went back and Graeme said that the rhus tox and granite were too strong and gave me another probiotic that was dairy free. Also, told me to change the formula to hydrolysed formula. I've tried neocate and stopped all homeopathic treatment and situation improved markedly. I'm not sure if my son is extra sensitive (that was told to us by Graeme), but after so many visits and severe flareups, I'm not very confident about IMI treatment or diagnosis for that matter. Maybe for older children or adults, it's ok to "experiment" with different treatments and dosages, but I don't want him to be the guinea pig. And, after all that, go back to using steroids which is what Graeme recommended on our last visit. I know many have had success with the treatment, but it hasn't worked for us. I hope you have better luck than us. Just want to let you know my experience.
where can I get Ovus cream?
Haven't tried Bioderma, but already bought it
Which one is better?
My daughter is 6 yo, and she's STILL having flare-ups every now and then
She's been having eczema since she's 3 mo
When it's really bad I have no choice but to put steroid cream called "elomet" (prescribed by our GP). It'll clear up after a few days. Then she'll stay clear for a week or two before it all starts up again. It's going on and on and on......
Wonder when she'll OUTGROW this as people and dr have been telling me this since 6 years ago
Joannek: Can you PM me the details of your reiki healer?
Thanks
