Actually, Alice, I believed in all the doctors that I had before I started using homeopathy a lot more than I "believe" in homeopathy. It works, so I use it. I am always skeptical when I use it, and always surprised when it works--

Here is an example of something that always surprises me:

for burns, swab the burned area with a solution made of half spoon of calendula tincture stirred into a pan of warm water. Then disolve three or four pastilles of Causticum 30c to 200c (whatever you have) under your tongue.

I picked up a hot pan that I didn't know was hot til I was holding it--something I'd done as a child, and I still remember days of stinging agony--not this time though! The calendula was very soothing, and within about fifteen minutes after taking the causticum,
the pain had gradually evaporated. A couple hours later, it started to sting again, and I suddenly remembered that I'd burned myself--another treatment with the calendula and the causticum, and I was OK again.
