Thank you so much for your reply - I was scared to use it. He however does not have much of a disease/virus history. He was always healthy up until this year - He had rosiola (hope it is spelled right) when he was 5 month. This was the most serious illness. When he was 1 1/2 he had his first strep infection that lasted almost two weeks, bu after that all was fine. This year though it is his third strep infection and he just can't get out of the sickness. His regular doctor prescribed amoxil - it certainly helped, but his throat is still red and he is still conjected. I also forgot to mention that he had pnemnomia two months ago? What do I do? I want to try homeopathic remedies and see if I could avoid surgery (toncilitis). We live in New JErsey (north) any reccomendations - Can you help?
