IBS query about homeopathy remedy
I have had severe IBS with diarrhea since april, I also get wind and very bad acid reflex which typically lasts several days. I was perscribed Lycopodium 30c (just 3 tablets) which I took two weeks ago. I am not able to get an appointment with my homeopathic doctor again until December. I would like to know if my symptoms should have improved by now and how long to wait before trying another remedy. Thanks.fragileflower on 2006-11-06
