    I had considered taking some of those homeopathy pills they have in Holland and Barrett, but they weren't allowed to say what you took them for. They can't make any claims for them.

    I was commenting on this once at a Women's Environmental Network meeting, and someone said that you are supposed to take the Rhus Tox ones for that.  So I got some and after I mastered the art of getting into them, (You press hard on the bottom of the tube to break the seal, then press again until two come out into the lid.)  You take them from the lid, then suck them.  

    I have found that they help.  Since Homeopathy isn't proved to have any effect, I can't make any claims, except to say it is worth a try and it won't hurt you.   I have an idea that if you have the 12v, they work less well than the 6v which are weaker/stronger in homeopathy terms.  I just get what I can find.
