Homeopathy rules once again

I couldn't find the OPC/PCO but I got some optique homeopathic eye drops and they along with rest, Vitamin C, and Echinacea did the trick.  I went back to the doctor and he did not need to prescribe antibiotic eye drops.  I will keep using these amazing eye drops so that I will be able to wear my contacts next week.  

He cussed when I said “yes, I am nursing"

I cured mastitis three months ago without going to the doctor and getting antibiotics.  Now it’s time to cure keratitis.  Yes, I have an eye infection.  It is very red and sore.  I can’t wear my contacts until it clears up.  When the doctor asked if I was nursing I said yes. “S%$#!” he exclaimed.   He doesn’t want to put me on an antibiotic eye drop because I am nursing.  He is going to see me in three days to see if my immune system can clear it up on its own. 

When I had a bad case of mastitis I didn’t want to go to the doctor right away so I pumped up the vitamin C, added Echinacea and cut up raw garlic cloves into pill sized slivers and swallowed whole.  The mastitis was completely gone in 2 days!

Now here is what I will do for this eye infection. 

1. Take 2 500mg Ester C tablets three times a day.

2. Eat a lot of spinach for the Vitamin A.

3. Trying to get more rest now that I am caught up on grad school since fatigue is said to worsen the infection.

4. PCO aka OPC (oligomeric proanthocyanidin).  This is an antioxidant that is supposed to help fight inflammation and promote healthy tissue growth.  I’m going to take 100mg twice a day. 

5. I love Boiron homeopathics. I just found out that they make Optique eye drops.  They have calendula in them.  My health food store only had one left, which makes sense since the doctor said eye infections are going around.  

I go back to the doctor on Tuesday and we will see if yet again my natural remedies prevail!

Why I'm not going to boycott BP in light of the Gulf Oil Spill

Environmental Health. The BP Gulf Oil Spill.


I am sad, I am mad. I am praying for all of those people and animals adversely affected by the gulf oil spill.  But I am not going to boycott BP.  Here is why:


1. Most BP stations are not even owned by BP.
2. Not all BP stations sell BP gas.
3. BP sells there gas to non BP stations.
4. When people boycotted Exxon after their spill it had no impact.


This is misplaced activism!


What you CAN do to make a difference...
1. Buy a hybrid or electric car, walk or ride a bicycle.
2. Slow down. I have read that each five mph you drive over 60 mph is like paying an extra 20 cents per gallon of gas! 
2. Ask congress to push for renewable resources like wind and solar energy.
3. Give to the “National Parks Disaster Recovery Fund” online or by texting “PARKS” to 90999 on your mobile phone by July 1st. Your money will go directly to the parks impacted by the Gulf oil spill.
4. Ask your senator to make BP clean up their mess.
5. Volunteer to help at Volunteer Florida.
6. Try to conserve energy in your home.  
*Replace all your light bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs. 
*Buy only Energy Star appliances. 
*Use a Programmable Thermostat.
*Plug several appliances into a Power Strip with a timer.


Basically, I believe that this is a warning from God. We need to take care of our environment and approach creation with reverence. Watch the video about Environmental Action below.  It is eye-opening!
