In answer:

1. Yes, it is my starting point. I call my practitioner.

2. Both. When conventional medicine said I would have to live with my condition, I thought it ridiculous. After trying several different things, homeopathy worked.

3. No; on the advice of a few practitioners, I have decided to abstain from any conventional medication. The only time I would revert to western medicine is if I was in a car accident, or similar injurious situation, where "mechanical/surgical" repairs were required by a surgeon.
