i have a question my dad has lympnomia cancer, he has undergone every medical treatment thought possible the chemo.radiation and some new thing that is nuclear. i cant remember the exact name all i know it was some bad s**t!! hes been battling it now for 6 years. is there any special oils he can use for the topical pain? also he contracted shingles almost a year ago,their all gone but they leave tremendous pain behind in the nerves. is there anything special for that? hes taking painkillers that would knock a horse down,there not even phasing him. so any help would be appreciated. thanks

hello peyton,
i am sure homeopathy can reduce the pain and cure to a great extent. have seen bad cases being solved. will ask the forum doc to help u out too.

Peyton I'd definitely vote for going for a homeopathy treatment. One even cant imagin to what extent is the pain reduced... but the Keywords in this type of treatment are patience and prevention.

Herpes and shingles are in the same family of viruses, and can be treated with homeopathic medicine.

(The mind-pattern for shingles is being irritated at yourself for how you portray yourself in the world.) Use the color ice blue mentally, and use myrrh gum capsules, and Omega-3 fish oils that are found at the health food store daily. Also castor oil topically on the shingle areas will help. (You can get it at the health food store, cold-pressed and pure for topical application.)

Blessings! Linda
