Over the years i have used the following formula [with some slight variations sometimes] for ovarian cysts [of sizes which were "suspicious"] I took the formula [combined the remedies] from Dr.med Emil Rehm: Bewahrte homoopatische Rezepte [german] Th results were very encouraging and as far as i remember in all cases, even in one case of a teratoma which totally disappeared. I did always ...

I am a fellow PKD patient and AFAIK triptolide has, in purely allopathic terms, shown some promise in the reduction of kidney cysts in the mouse model of PKD. I'm not at all sure that it can be regarded as "an inhibitor of PKD" as not only would we need to learn more about how this might work in humans over a long period of time (the disease often progresses very slowly over decades), we would ...

I agree, I don't want to be my own guinea pig or anyone elses for that matter. I also don't want to go through what my mother has gone through. She is 65 and had a kidney transplant on 2001 (thankfully) after many a horrible hospital experience with kidney problems.But now has stage 4 cancer most likely as a result of the meds she had to take for her new kidney. She a fighter though and I have ...

&quot;This board is for giving correct and helpful advise to the patients as well as others.&quot; Fully agree. Patients who visit these boards might well go on to search locally for a homeopath. With that in mind what patients need is solid advice and guidance on: - how to find the best homeopath for their needs - what questions to ask to ensure that this is the case - a realistic assessment and expectations based on that...

Apis is not recommended for kidney cyst, but for ovarian cysts. However, on book has recommended Colchicum for this condition. I treated apatient with this drug after sometime he dropped out, though the scan and radiological image showed a reduced cystic condition.

Of course PKD is orginated due to Genetic defect. But it is seen all the family members do not suffer with the symptoms of PKD, the symptoms are very vague. More over symptoms generated are of renal dysfunction. It is confirmed by USG or so. PKD has progressive nature and its progress differs in different family as well as different members of same family. Usually seen PKD is aggravated by uncontrolled UTI, HTN, and other renal dysfunctions,...
