View Full Version : Bad Effects of Allopathic Medicines?
Homeo Man
27th May 2005, 05:23 AM
I daily see many patients which mostly come from allopathic background. This is a case, which I am going to share with my fellow members.
She is 35 years old woman, unmarried.
She reports the following story.
“I was suffering with sneezing and coryza. I reported my case to allopathic doctor. They treated me for three months without having improvement. During treatment, I also faced blood oozing from my nostrils. That was the bad effect of “WARM” allopathic medicines. Doctors said, don’t worry, you will be perfectly all right. Just carry on with these NEW allopathic medicines, which are “researched products”.
My condition gone worse, they said, polyps have been developed in the nostrils. They referred me to ENT surgeon. Surgeon put me on allopathic drugs for one month more. A stage comes, when I face great difficulty in my respiration. My nose got blocked. I was unable to sleep.

Image edited to link. The image may be disturbing to some Members since it features a very disfigured lady.
Doctor decided to operate my nostrils. Surgeon was FRCS from UK. He had 25 years of experience. I spent my whole money on my treatment. He operated, operation was not successful.
He again put me on medicines. After three months, he decided again, I should undergone another operation. I had no choice. He operated but failed to achieve good result. Due to severe infection, my nose become dumble shape. Doctors said, I think, you must consult another professor doctor who recently came from USA and teahing in medical college. You report your case to that doctor.
USA doctor examined my nose and said, BIBI (woman) you are under great risk of developing cancer. I said, How? He said, due to bad effects of allopathic medicines, your nose cells are showing some kind of degenerations.
If you need your life then I have to remove your nose. I said, any other choice. He said, I have no option left. He finally removed my nose in order to save my life.”
Does allopathic drugs cause side effects?
Is this the case of side effects of allopathic medicine or bad diagnosis or poor management?
My question is, is this the bad effect of allopathy or it was a new disease or progress of the old / existing disease.

Why have you included what looks like a very crudely photoshopped picture in your almost certainly fictitious account ?
Ashles
27th May 2005, 05:38 AM
Well it's a bit hard to comment without know what she was actually treated with, and what complications have arisen.
If she was developing cancerous growths in her nose then what other course of treatment would you have recommended?
And if she is a patient of yours, why did you photograph her sitting in the street? Wouldn't it have been kinder to photogaph her in the surgery?
And would she really appreciate being made into your avatar on an internet message forum?
I think it is fairly obvious what kind of point you are trying to make, but this is bordering on breaking forum rules - posting unpleasant pictures solely in order to criticise allpopathic medicine.
ETA: It is also very hard to believe an internationally renowned surgeon would leave an operation looking like that (I don't know if that is photoshopped otr not - it might well not be). And how did she afford to pay what would have been colossal fees in the first place?
Oh, one more thing Homeo - could you ask your patient what the names of the UK and US surgeons were please? Thank you.

Do you mean a genuinely allopathic (i.e. based on the idea of balancing "humours") system such as ayurveda or TCM, or are you using the word as a derogatory term for proper medical treatment.
Your use of the expression “WARM” allopathic medicines suggests that the earlier treatment may well have been some sort of "humour-balancing" system, as this sort of characterisation of treatments is used in those systems but not in Western medicine.

Maybe for ease of reference and clarity we should simply describe 'Western' or 'Modern' Medicine as 'Real medicine' and then call the alternatives whatever we like.

Is this the best you can do, Homeo Man?
In the absence of any evidence or scientific basis for Homeopathy, all you can do is provide disfigured faces to drag 'allopathy' through the mud?
So you forget the millions of people with meningitis and pneumonia and life-threatening cellulitis who have been cured using antibiotics, or the millions of mothers who are alive today because anti-hemorrhagic drugs prevented them from bleeding to death on the labor table? How about the bloodclots evacuated from sub-dural spaces or the tension pneumothoraces drained? Gone are the accomplishments of Landsteiner and Koch, Pasteur and Ross, Nobel Prize winners who have each revolutionized the way medicine is done.
All that is required to demolish all of that is a wise homeopath, who posts a disturbing picture of a woman's damaged face and asks us skeptics a question that, though ungrammatical, shakes us to our very core: "Does allopathic drugs cause side effects?"
Thank you Homeo Man. You have opened our eyes to the reality of the matter. You have taught us that the best system of medicine is the one that has NO side-effects whatsoever. Homeopathy has no side-effects because it simply has NO effects at all. The fact that it cannot cure ANY illness is of course irrelevant to the matter.
Long live homeopathy!

Fine, now that you have seen this patient, tell us: How is she doing now? The picture you posted of your patient is from November 2004. I'm sure she has greatly improved by now, and you can take a picture of her in your hospital, instead of a street snapshot like a journalist would do.

Funny, that. My cousin's husband had nasal polyps. He had a series of operations, and the last one managed to cure them completely. He looks, and has always looked, perfectly normal.
He also developed colon cancer - people with nasal polyps have an increased risk of this. He had an operation, 7 years ago, and again he was completely cured.
And he has never been near a homoepath.

Homeo Man,
Why on earth should we believe your implausible claim? After you and your colleagues have already admitted attempting to play some childish game which involves wasting the time of everyone here on this forum?
I think there's about as much chance of your fairy tale being accurate as there is of finding a molecule of mother tincture in your magic water. But, given that, however astronomically unlikely, this at least means there's a possibility that you're not just a lying liar, I'm just wondering if you got that poor woman's permission to paste her picture all over the internet as part of your trolling activities? If so, I wonder if you could corroborate this in some way?
But most of all, I'd like you to answer Ashles' request:
provide the names of the Western doctors and surgeons you mentioned.
Thankyou.

Maybe one of the human-type medics here could hazard a guess as to what disease the poor lady in the picture is actually suffering from? Leprosy? The sad thing is that leprosy is entirely treatable and manageable, but people in poorer communities lack the resources to be able to handle the protocols.
I would hazard a guess that Homeo Man has never even seen this lady, and merely swiped the picture from somewhere and made up a string of lies to accompany it.
Hey, MAS collective, can homoeopathy cure leprosy (Hansen's disease)? Care to provide some evidence?

Within in short period of abot 3/4 year, it is said that about 250 million people all over the world are practicing simple "Pranayam-yoga" breathing excercises with some diet control & Ayurvedic herbal medicines as adviced by him. Most of them got astonishing benefits & even non-curable diseases are cured. Arteries blockages, high Tg, high BP, diabetes. kidney problems. obesity & other diseases are said to be easily cured within a very short time by these simple excercises. Many doctors, govenment big officers, big & small people are taking his treatments and said to be much benefitting.

On a whim I decided to visit the homeopathy forums mentioned in Homeo Man's sig.
A very quiet place.
I noticed an area entitled
Research Light (http://www.homeopathy.forumsplace.com/forum-9.html)
"For those wishing to discuss the scientific approach to homeopathy"
Topics - 0
Posts - 0
What a surprise.
In another area there is a request to enter details of every case anyone has ever cured or observed.
So far there are 2 posts, and neither of them mentions a cured case.
Ironically they are discussing diaorrhea. Basically they're talking sh...

Excellent. Well no doubt we will soon suddenly see a massive improvement in India's appalling levels of healthcare, infant mortality and life expectancy figures.
Incidentally, why are so many people turning to Baba Ramdev? Is homeopathy not working out for them?
Or is this alternative alternative medicine?

India (where Pranayam-yoga was invented by Baba Ramdev): (http://www.who.int/countries/ind/en/)
Life expectancy at birth m/f (years): 60.0/63.0
Adult mortality m/f (per 1000): 283/213
United Kingdom (where probably no-one practises Pranayam-yoga): (http://www.who.int/countries/gbr/en/)
Life expectancy at birth m/f (years): 76.0/81.0
Adult mortality m/f (per 1000): 103/64
Moral #1: don't practice Pranayam-yoga
Moral #2: spend the money you were going to spend on Pranayam-yoga "Camps, TV channels, cassetes & CDs, books etc." on food, shelter & proper healthcare
Moral #3: make Baba Ramdev donate his presumably vast profits to developing a proper health service in India
Moral #4: shut up

There's a delightful misquoting of Mark Twain on the NCH Pakistan Forums on this thread (http://www.nch.ipbfree.com/index.php?showtopic=17) .
Quote as described by homeopathic proponents:
Mark Twain said
Quote: "The introduction of homeopathy forced the old school doctor to stir around and learn something of a rational nature about his business. You may honestly feel grateful that homeopathy survived the attempts of allopaths (the orthodox physicians to destroy it."
The actual full quote:
"When you reflect that your own father had to take such medicines as the above, and that you would be taking them today yourself, but for the introduction of homoeopathy, which forced the old school doctor to stir around and learn something of a rational nature about his business, you may honestly feel grateful that homoeopathy survived the attempts of the allopathists to destroy it, even though you may never employ any physician but an allopathist while you live."
Kind of gives a different impression when you hear the whole thing and don't selectively quote chunks.
In this whole recent exchange I have generally found the homeopaths to behave appallingly childishly, and now they have reached new levels in resorting to the shock tactics of this thread.
They have done their cause no good at all.
Well done Dr. MAS. Well done all NCH Pakistan members. You have disgraced yourselves publicly.
It seems like it is just the arrogance of wanting to play doctor, without giving a damn about the welfare of patients, or wanting to actually study medicine or science, and in fact to actively question and ridicule proven scientific remedies.
This whole thing is really very unpleasant.

One point against this being leprosy: she has no amputated digits. Such extensive facial involvement with intact fingers would be very rare.
She could have cutaneous Donovanosis but this wouldn't be a typical presentation at all. Furthermore, it wouldn't require resection of the nose.
Though I could be mistaken, I'm personally inching towards Photoshopitis, especially considering how black the area where her nose ought to be is. One would expect to see at least some remnants of the inner nasal septum. Also, the face looks more like an amateurish smudge job than a real illness.

Well humans are social animals and looking after each other increases chances of our DNA propogating. So keeping each other alive is pefectly natural.
But if that is what you think about the importance of letting the unfit or unhealthy die then I now think I understand your continued support of homeopathy

Homeopathy isn't 'natural', and it isn't 'best entitled' to handle any medical complaint.

Even your reference to "WARM" allopathic medicines is total bunk. Western medicine has no classification of "warm" medications.

To be in pefect harmony to each other Check internet about pollutions, over/imbalanced population, modern lifestyle effects or other modern creation.
You think animal populations in nature never suffered overpopulation?
In nature, no one much/unduly help/interfere in each other.
In nature everyone eats everyone else. I'd call that "interfering." And again, do you advocate eliminating all medical treatments, and all social assistance programs and charitable organizations?

To help us understand better what happened to the poor woman, would you please post a link to another picture of her - a close-up taken at a slightly different angle? A lateral profile would be good because it would help us all understand the extent of damage better. I'm sure that such pictures must be part of your extensive documentation of this case.

Natural & social angles can be different, sometimes just opposite.
What natural systems? We survived by taming animals and plants, and by killing whatever else stared at us funny.
What in our lifestyle is "unnatural"? Which part of our lifestyle didn't come 100% from nature? Which piece of technology did we manage to sprout full grown without using materials from nature?
Taking a fruit in its natural form can be natural but taking it in some processed form can be unnatural. Alike all other foods. Burning woods for cooking food can be natural but microwave ovens, gas cooking, electric cooking can be unnatural. Walking or traveling on animals can be natural wheras traveling by car, aeroplanes..can be unnatural. A cave, a nest, a tree shelter, a cottage made from items in their natural forms, a jungle, a bath under waterfall..is natural whereas modern concrete jungles, shadows, bath in bathroom under shower..can be unnatural. Cloths made from cotton, natural fibers are natural but from synthetic fibers are unnatural. Alike it you can compare million of things OR can search google for natural & unnatural things. Whatever is new to us of which we do not having inherant sense of its right or wrong or whatever to which we are not habituated and adapted to, can be unnatural--as most modern things. There is a harmony or balance of all things in nature. Any deviation from this harmony can be taken as 'nature's imbalance' somewhat alike homeostatis. 3 apple, 3 pears & 3 lemons taken 1 each by three person can be a balance whereas each take all three of each can be said as imbalance....
Many or most people do enjoy going into the nature from cities.
You think diseases don't pass from one animal to another, when living in "nature"?
You are taking it differently. I meant we advocate killing of other species if posing them danger to humans but save the humans in similar situations(AIDS)--so selfishness.
You think animal populations in nature never suffered overpopulation?
Yes they can but they are then balanced, we may not by out interferances.
In nature everyone eats everyone else. I'd call that "interfering." And again, do you advocate eliminating all medical treatments, and all social assistance programs and charitable organizations?
Yes but to certain limit on "give & take' or 'live & let live' rules not "Let us only live" rule. Although "might is right" "Survival of fittest" is also said. :) Social/unnatural & natural angles, self & whole considerations are different--may be bit opposite. What you prefer is your choice.

Tell me, do you think successively diluting and shaking a remedy using manufactured glassware (not a naturally occuring product) and then dropping the resulting solution onto a pill made of purified sugar can be considered to be a "natural" process?
Are you seriously suggesting that cooking food by burning wood is natural but cooking food by burning gas is unnatural? The effect on the food, assuming that the same temperature is reached, will be exactly the same. Although I suppose it's possible that naturally occuring oils in some types of wood could give rise to carcinogens when the wood is burned. Do you think this is a good thing? I'm betting you don't do the cooking in your family.
You are taking it differently. I meant we advocate killing of other species if posing them danger to humans but save the humans in similar situations(AIDS)--so selfishness.And if you really think HIV is a species worth preserving, why don't you start a charity for it?

Just how exactly are they "balanced"? Perhaps by a whole lot of death? Is that what you are suggesting should happen? Who should be culled from the herd?

Homeo Man:
Why do you insist on returning to this thread without answering anybody's valid questions?
You are doing you and your cause no favours at all.
You have succeeded in destroying my sympathetic views towards Pakistani homeopathy with your arrogance, your insults and your lies.
I knew homeopathy was 'big' in Pakistan. I believed this to be because it is a poor country, with much hardship and poor health, and a healthcare system that simply can't cope with its burden.
I thought the homeopaths there were probably serving the same function as our homeopaths in the 18th and 19th centuries, essentially providing sympathy and care for people who could not afford proper medical treatment, or for whom worse quack treatments than 'no treatment at all' might otherwise have been inflicted. I thought that the Pakistani homeopaths were people who, in a better world, might actually have been medical doctors, who were motivated by compassion and a need to help those around them who were suffering.
I other words, I didn't believe in homeopathy, but I did believe that the Pakistani homeopaths were to be respected for their efforts and genuine intentions.
You and your ridiculous friends of NCH Pakistan have completely destroyed this naïve misconception I had; I suppose I should thank you.
But it's hard to thank someone who I now know is an arrogant, cynical, lying charlatan, sponging off some of the most unfortunate people ever to have lived, purely in the interests of boosting his own profile and bank balance.
And then to brag about it on the internet! To come over here and lie, fudge, prevaricate and basically tell us you're here to try to manipulate us and deceive us! Posting fabricated pictures of a fictional patient to try to convince people that modern medicine is harmful, purely so you can cash in from the inevitable suffering of anyone who might believe you! And so you can chuckle with your bizarre cronies at what hoops you think you've got us to jump through.
I just wanted you to know how counterproductive and damaging to your cause your actions here have been.
I want you to think hard about what you think you're achieving, and, if there's anyone pulling your strings and orchestrating this farce, what you think their motivations might be.
I also want you to know that it's in your power to change my mind about you, simply by starting to engage, and answer the reasonable questions that people have put to you.
But I won't hold my breath.

Is it not true?Kumar, you have consistently championed homeopathy, relying on your belief in anything "mass existing..." or with "least adversities" etc. You have desperately tried to produce "scientific" explanations, or rather justifications, for homeopathy, despite being repeatedly told that there are no observable effects and that your ideas have no basis at all in fact. You have consistently attacked what you describe as "modern" (or even "modren") systems as being harmful and unnatural. Pretending otherwise is not only a lie, it's a stupid lie, as anyone who feels so inclined can easily look at your previous posts and see the truth.

That appears to be the last from him on this subject. Not a very robust attempt to defend his claim that the photo of a poor disfigured street beggar was a picture of one of his patients.
I certainly hope Homeo Man is a 'real' troll, i.e. a complete play-actor just doing this for fun, because the implications of it being one of those lovely caring homeopaths are even worse.

Homeo Man,
I asked this before and I'm asking this again. Please post links to more close-ups of the poor lady taken from different angles in order to help us understand better the extent of damage to her face. Since you've said on another thread that you have other pictures of her, you ought to be able to show them to us.
And it would certainly be better if the lady's dignity would be respected by showing photographs of her in a clinic setting instead of showing her begging on the street.
We await your photos with great expectation.

I found three different pictures of the poor beggar posted by Homeo Man:
http://img276.echo.cx/img276/9624/c8ww.jpg
Shot November 10, 2004, at 13:35:32
http://img274.echo.cx/img274/9048/a0im.jpg
Shot 25 seconds after c8ww.jpg
http://img274.echo.cx/img274/899/b9vo.jpg
Shot 5 seconds after a0im.jpg
As strange as the dark hole in her face looks, I can't spot any photoshopping there. The hole looks very dark at first sight because of the comparatively bright colors around it, but the shadows below her left ear are exactly the same dark tone as the hole. If the nose was faked in all three images, it was done beyond the skills of the homeo pack. Also, the JPG compression artifacts look genuine to me.
Homeo Man, you wrote in one of your previous posts that this beggar is one of your patients. Please answer these questions:
What happened to her since November last year?
Why did you photograph her on the street, and not in your clinic?
Of what kind are your medical and human ethics to present your patients in such a derogative way?
Why don't you have any recent pictures of her???

Right. Come here and declare that you're going to explain how homoeopathy works. Then insist that you won't explain to anyone who doesn't have sufficient science education. Several people post their scientific credentials. Oh no, you could be lying so I'm not going to explain anything.
But gather round and listen while I tell you this wildly improbable tale involving (apparently totally fictitious) malpractice....

2nd June 2005, 01:04 PM
But the question remains - why do you need to verify his qualification? Does it make his arguments or questions more or less valid? I don't think so.
As I do not know him, I cannot say for sure, but for me the quality of his posts, arguments, and questions lead me to accept (for now at least) that he probably has the qualification he claims.
Compare this with the behaviour of certain people who claim to have multiple PhDs - and who would you think people are more likely to believe?
While I'm here, perhaps you could help me with something that is bugging me, why all the claims of multiple PhDs? From what I know of academia, a PhD is not really that much to shout about. I see it more as a stepping stone into the world of academia. Once you have the PhD, you are judged much more on your work, what you publish, and what position you hold (e.g. researcher, lecturer, professor). I can not imagine my old chemistry professor taking time out from his research to suddenly go back to do another PhD!

I am coming here to share thoughts with you and not to check anyone qualification or credibility or status. Sir, that's true I am a poor homeopath who uses TANGA (Horse Carriage) for traveling from village to City but God (Allah) blessed me the most higher qualification one can dream about. I have four bachelors and three master degrees with one Ph. D and still student. In this way, I have done graduations in all relevant subjects of medical sciences, hence education or understanding is not problem. I am already on my footing but will take help from you when I need it. :) :jedi: He promised to explain to us how homoeopathy works, by his understanding of it. He specifically said he wasn't interested in checking anyone's qualifications or status.
Until we asked him to proceed. Then, oh dear, he had to know that people here had sufficient scientific education to understand him. When it was pointed out that several people here also had PhDs in the biological and medical sciences and were well equipped to follow his arguments, he nevertheless still refused to proceed.
If it is impossible to explain homoeopathy to anyone unless they have given you their phone number first (and in any case, how could you prove that any of what you were told was true, whatever information was given?), then why come to an anonymous internet forum offering to give such an explanation in the first place?

(By the way, note that Mas's first claim was of a single PhD, only later did the claim shift to multiple PhDs.) However, when this was explicitly discussed (in a thread I can't now locate), one or two of the Merikan members seemed to be saying that a PhD there is something you take classes and course work for, and some people might rack up enough credits for more than one. Indeed, they might even get two for a single thesis, if it straddled two subjects.
Certainly, here, a PhD is a training in research, and once you have got "your" PhD then the only way I can see anyone going back for more is many years later, perhaps after retirement, when taking up an entirely new subject as a hobby. And them only in cases of extreme masochism.

It was (skeptics) who first started discussion on his qualification. He never posted about his qualification unless you demanded. He has one or two Ph.D, I can't comment but I know he does not own those degrees. He just write in the sense that other own such type of degrees at higher level to impress others which are not acceptable in Pakistan just like MD. He has done MD but does not own MD because that MD is not acceptable by Higher Education Commission (HEC) which is the ultimate authority to recognize degrees in Pakistan. He is involved in two BHMS courses. In one BHMS he is student which is acceptable by HEC but the other is not acceptable by HEC but acceptable world wide. In this sense if he says, I have done BHMS then it is correct and if he says, he has not done BHMS then he is also correct. He has done DHMCS from Srilanka but that is not own by HEC. But this course is very widely acceptable in India, Bangladesh, Malaysia, UK, Germany and USA.

Dr. Kausar Naheed Answar (in this picture in center) done MD (4 years) from USA but that MD is not acceptable in Pakistan by HEC. Can he claim of having MD degree? Although in UK, different persons are practicing.

Mojo is so conscious about my authority and MAS qualification. He is putting his words in my mouth. I confirm that MAS degrees are not acceptable in Pakistan but acceptable in all other counteries. Yes, to me he is not homeopath because I am pakistani but mas is homeopath for rest of the world becuase his degrees are acceptable in each country except in Pakistan.

To determine whether this treatment has any effect, we conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial with three parallel arms. 64 adults undergoing elective surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome were randomized to take three tablets daily of homeopathic arnica 30C or 6C or placebo for seven days before surgery and fourteen days after surgery. Primary outcome measures were pain (short form McGill Pain Questionnaire) and bruising (colour separation analysis) at four days after surgery. Secondary outcome measures were swelling (wrist circumference) and use of analgesic medication (patient diary).
62 patients could be included in the intention-to-treat analysis. There were no group differences on the primary outcome measures of pain (P=0.79) and bruising (P=0.45) at day four. Swelling and use of analgesic medication also did not differ between arnica and placebo groups. Adverse events were reported by 2 patients in the arnica 6C group, 3 in the placebo group and 4 in the arnica 30C group.
The results of this trial do not suggest that homeopathic arnica has an advantage over placebo in reducing postoperative pain, bruising and swelling in patients undergoing elective hand surgery.

(picture was taken from WHCC cd)
Now come with your professor, what is his contribution in the field of alternative therapies. What he has done? Where trial was conducted? How did he find the same kind of person having same disease? What are the addressess of those person who were under gone trial?

We have provided lot of proof with pictures but your professor Ernst never came with evidenses. Who were the persons on which the trial was coducted as said by Homeo Man. Have you ever seen a serious scientific journal? They tend not to be illustrated with the authors' holiday snaps.
As for "who were the persons on which the trial was conducted," proper doctors are concerned with something called patient confidentiality. It was immediately obvious from the opening post in this thread that Homeo Man is not remotely bothered by issues of confidentiality, and neither, apparently, are you.

If you read the actual paper, rather than just the abstract, you will find that, like other properly published peer reviewed studies, it describes the methodology used, so that others can repeat the findings. This is crucially important in that it's how science works. Nullius in verba, and all that...

Qureshi, this is all very well, pictures are lovely, etc., but I have to tell you that this is not the kind of thing that's going to convince people here of anything. At all.
The basic thing here is, that if homeopathy works, we must be able to see it working. In your clinic, you presumably believe you see that every day, but, just as with any other treatment, that's not quite good enough evidence - because there's a lack of objectivity, and because without controls improvement could be due to lots of different things.
So, that's what controlled trials are for. They're just about watching the effect of something, in this case a homeopathic treatment, and making sure that other things aren't confusing the issue.
So that's pretty much all people are asking for. Do you know of any controlled trials in homeopathy that are sufficiently well-done that we could consider them? Or did you want to do one yourself to win the million dollars offered on this site? Or maybe you could talk us through how you think homeopathy works?

It's easy to see that Qureshi can't even use a simple Internet search engine. Or he would have found out by now that Edzard Ernst is Professor of Complementary Medicine at Exeter University, and that his research these days is done through the Peninsula Medical School. He is German by birth, and grew up in a family where homoeopathy was routinely used. After qualifying as a doctor he did a residency in a homoeopathic hospital and qualified as a homoeopath. He decided to make his career in the scientific study of the claims of alternative medicine, which is how he came to be in Exeter.
There are biographies of him accessible on the Internet (including a good one in the BMJ if they haven't put it on subscription-only now), and I have heard him speak on the radio on several occasions. He's by no means against alternative medicine, but what he wants to do is sort the wheat from the chaff, require the same proof of efficacy and safety as regular medicine, and basically give people information about what actually works and what doesn't. So far, he's never managed to show any effect of homoeopathy, including individualised treatment carried out by trained homoeopaths.
Here is the BMJ article I mentioned (http://careerfocus.bmjjournals.com/cgi/content/full/327/7425/s166). Googling for his name gives about 12,000 hits, many of which are highly informative.

When you don't find the answers then you take issue of confidentiality?
When the trial was conducted, whether your trial persons know that they are under trial?
If yes, then they have no problem of confidentiality?
When you conduct such trial then you must provide the provers data as Homeopaths have mentioned in Allen key notes proving data otherwise the data is fraud.

Non sequitur. Being willing to participate in a medical trial does not mean being willing to have your ID and medical histiry revealed to all.

If you apply a formula on homeo man then why the same principle is not applicable on you? why are you demanding from homeo man to disclose everything of that poor woman who came to him for getting treatment when all other allopaths put her on beggers streat. Why are you demanding their names?

Here's my professor. He has much knowledge of drugs and this is a picture of him meeting with the President of the United States who gave him a commendation for this. You can see a gold medal which he carries on his belt. You can visit his website (http://elvis.com/) and purchase many CD's and DVD's and learn more of his great knowledge.

To the topic subject;
Bad Effects of Allopathic Medicines?
Will it not be better/productive to discuss,
