Toodeemo. I AM ON ANTIBIOTICS OR CAN YOU NOT READ THE QUESTION. DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THE WORDS "KIND,OR GENUINE"!!!!!!!!

I HAVE read your question in detail, as well as all the other answers, and I have some suggestions.

AFTER you have finished the course of antibiotics, consult a reputable naturopath or homeopath for help to get your immune system working well again.

I am not opposed to conventional medicine, as it has saved my life more than once, as well as my son's.

However, in my experience, homeopathic medicine is effective in dealing with chronic ill-health. BUT I would only take this road if doctors have thoroughly examined you and treated you to the best of their ability.

Speaking generally and not exclusively about your case, it is necessary to rule out any life-threatening disease or genetic condition, for example, and again I speak GENERALLY, a heart condition or cancer.

Reputable naturopaths will refer you to a doctor if they find evidence of a serious condition that they cannot cure.

I have suffered from chronic lung disease all my life too, although thankfully not as severe as yours.

I consulted a naturopath when numerous visits to doctors and courses of antibiotics had not cured my sinusitis. I had experienced a lot of stress for a long time and had become run-down and exhausted.

The homeopathic and herbal medicines, together with a change of diet, got me feeling much better after a few weeks. It was fairly expensive but it worked.

PS I'm very sorry you feel so ill - I know how rotten it can make you feel, mentally as well as physically. Maybe home-made fresh juices would pep you up as well - such as a mixture of carrot, apple, orange, and parsley - which actually tastes like pineapple! Drink it straight away before it starts to oxidise. (Make sure you use the best quality fruit and veg, organic if possible.)

Also - if you've got enough energy left! light some candles, make a hot bubble bath and luxuriate in it with your favourite music playing...!!!

Best wishes and keep in touch! xx
