TET: Riva of Dreams, Or What is a Bumple Anyway?

[Nanatsu no Tsuki]

In the end, Uri, wheat I'm trying to say is that perhaps giving this kind of advice to people isn't good. Ultimately, it is up to them to seek help if they want to. I don't advice rejecting traditional medicine for natural stuff alone. That can have terrible effects on a person's health.

I hope you know I am not angry at you, just concerned.

I know. There's no need for concern. People always over look the potential of natural medicine, remedies, etc. O/C always go to a professional if you don't know why you have a certain symptom or if you get complications or if you're just unsure. But there's no need to worry over every single little cough, headache, sore, or ache.

Well, there is cause for concern. Especially in people who have compromised immune systems, cari.

Herbal medicine is only good if you know what you're doing. Otherwise is useless.

camomile tea seems to work wonders on mrs mermania's sleepiness i wouldnt say she had a clue as to what she was doing or why.

Sleepiness =/= a fever.

I would never recommend herbal things for a fever. Or for anything serious thats a medical disease for that matter. I'm always keen on pointing out they should go to the doctor because a fever may be a symptom for something worse.

What? It's not a bad idea. Medicine is quite nasty with ugly side-effects.

Sometimes, but only for the severe diseases that you really need medicine for. For more minor stuff you can just take over-the-counter stuff, which generally has no side-effects. Hell, I'm pretty sure that things that have side effects have to be prescribed to you.

Even otc stuff can be harmful.

Nope.

you dont know what you are talking about do you?

here is something on tylenol and liver damage

Last year, my husband had an itchy ear. Instead of going to the doctor, a friend had him put hydrogen peroxide in the ear canal and then do some candling. By the next day, he had a full fledged infection. From an itchy ear canal to full fledged infection, in one day. He could've avoided it by going to see the doctor as soon as the bad itch started.

>.< Was your friend a doctor? Shame on him for accepting help from someone not specialized. Personally, I'd take HP out of the market. It doesn't help much with anything. Could, in fact, make scrapes cuts and other stuff heal less faster and get infected

It's pretty good for cleaning up fresh bloodstains.

I would love it if chamomile worked for my sleeplessness. It doesn't. :/

[Izandai]

I'm tired. Again.

Likely because you have a weak immune system.

I know it so well.

Some people have a terrible distaste of doctors and just because they read something online that some claim, works, they consider themselves experts. It's like telling someone who just broke a leg that they need exercise. Or someone who is suffering from rheumatoid arthritis to go have a massage.

One might as well tell them to put toilet water on the scrape because someone said it works. (not saying you did this, mind you)

I understand. In some places doctors have a bad reputation.
-"So, what you here for?"
-"Um...well.. I have.."
*writes prescription*
-"Here"
-"What? You didn't even hear my symptoms"
-"Take acetaminophen"

sleepiness is a medical condition.

second point, what is aspirin? what is it made of?

Nah.

[Izandai]

This.

I can sit here and talk medicine with anyone. However, with any disease I always refer to the experts. Always. Because Im not a know it all. Even if I was a doctor I'd let people know they can and should always go for a second opinion if they are umsure of what Im talking about.

*Sigh* I must learn to better express myself

You need to learn English. "Heal less faster"? Yeesh.

Nope, because we have a multitude of effective over-the-counter medicines.

Some doctors can be very impersonal that way, yes. Of course, at times, one also needs to know that they are trained in ways that can detect causes of sickness without touching us much but, a thorough professional would perform a good examination, not just what you described.

Viral encephalitis (I'm surprised I spelled that right on the first try), which causes inflammation of the brain and increased intercranial pressure, is marked mostly by uncharacteristic tiredness, if I recall correctly.

Viral encephalitis.

Nope.

Always go to the doctor, even if you're a doctor I always promote the doctor. But there's no need to go to the doctor for a flu, or a common cold.

This I can agree with. you definitely don't need to go to the doctor for everything; most stuff can be taken care of with over-the-counter medicine, but you should definitely have regular appointments so that you can catch the really bad stuff early, and if you ever get really sick, you definitely want to call your doctor.

I went to the doc. for my (still have it) bronchitis, it's nothing to worry about. I wouldn't take otc stuff for the symptoms, I'd wait it out. I'd take natural stuff first instead of medicine. Nature seldom has the side-effects of medicine

Natural remedies also seldom have the benefits of actual medicine. As for "toughing it out", all that does is weaken your immune system. The boost you get from encountering a new disease happens pretty quickly, and from there on you're better off treating it with medicine.

Go away, I study medicine ¬¬

You know what I am a partisan of? Combining both medicines. As in, ok, you have depression. Take the prescribed medication, but also take vitamins that can improve absorption of minerals and nutrients that can, if possible, help improve your moods.

You have high blood pressure. Take the meds, and also add things like resveratrol to your diet to aid in controlling your blood tension. You know what I mean?
