Thank you for your reply. It's good to know that there are some truly independent thinkers on this site. You say you are not a classical homeopath, but in my opinion you are a cut above many self affirmed "classical" homeopaths. For instance, I read on one site about a patient who claimed he was being treated by a licensed, well experienced homeopath who had already given him 15 polycrests { that would be enough for about 5 or 6 lifetimes}- unbelievable- thanks again for your bold and imaginative thinking- hope we talk again-Fredric.
