Re: Oscillococcinum use during pregnancy ?

[Guest guest]

Hi Bill,

I don't know, but it's usually recommended if one is pregnant or

nursing to consult a physician.

HI Sherri-Lee,

So it took baby talk to get your attention. <chuckle> Obviously, a

subject close to your heart. Hope you and baby are doing good.

Yes, I know oscillococcinum is a homeopathic remedy, but only because I

looked it up on the internet. I didn't have a clue as to what it was

before. <chuckle> Still the recommendation is for pregnant or nursing

people to consult a physician. I don't know if that is because they

are just trying to cover all bases and themself as well, or if there is

truly a risk of some kind, nor am I qualified to make that discernment.

However, Bill, if you still have some concerns, one can always fall

back on to the tried and true vitamin C, garlic and other natural

remedies that have a good track record. Garlic is good for breaking up

congestion. If it has gone into the lungs, my favorite is inhaling a

mixture of CS/MSM through a nebulizer. Very effective. Even old

fashioned mustard packs work.

Hope whoever is sick gets to feeling better soon.
