Re: A bitter fight over who can be called 'doctor'

I use home treatments before going to the doctor almost exclusively.

Tea Tree Oil has cured tonsillitis, yeast infections, athletes foot type infections (more like "foot rot"), skin infections, ear infections, etc. Garlic oil has also gotten rid of ear aches/infections. Tea Tree Oil is my goddess.

Every time a doctor gives me antibiotics, I hesitate in taking them. I try to fight it other ways first. I currently have three bottles of unused antibiotics in my medicine cabinet. I fricken HATE taking antibiotics.

Lavender oil helps my migraines sometimes. That's smelling it. Since certain smells can trigger a migraine for me, why doesn't it make sense that certain smells could make it go away?

So, some people "buy into" the "nonesense" because we have tried and true positive experience with it.
