Chikun Guniya - Homoeopathic Farce
While the country is reeling under the onslaught of Chikun Guniya (for a long time, I thought it was a Kannada dialect of the actual scientific name), there are some charlatans who claim that there is a homoeopathic cure for it. These are probably the guys who vouch by homoeopathic panaceas.
There was one such advertisement in a Chennai daily by a doctor. I bought the medicine from him for 150/-. My trust in the pristine medical forms was so high that I knew this would work even before I left his clinic/house.
His instructions were simple - Take 2 pills, get relieved of the aftermath/symptoms for life. I was so amazed that I practically thought I has the all-healing Holy Grail in my hands. I gave it to my grandparents who had been affected with CG and were agonizing over the post-infection symptons of CG. They took just 2 pills as advocated and viola ... it vanished.... NOT THE PAIN, the PILLS!!!
They still suffer the same pains. I do not think there is any real homoepathic medicine to cure it.
Do not shell out money on this false claims !

Homoeopathic medicines always react very slowly, one can never expect immediate results as in allopathy. Panaceas dont exist in any form of medicine. Be happy that you got to lose only RS.150.
Dude...
Homepathic medicines are also similar to allopathic medicines, but the difference is in the level of concentration of chemicals. They r pretty slow! probably thats why u didnt see the effect...
Thank you great thinkers :) !!!
@Tanu : The point that got me miffed up was the '24 hour' gaurentee that the so-called-doc gave me!
