“I have had ulcerative colitis for nearly 9 years now – and for most of that time the condition has been severe. I have had countless medicines and potions via the NHS, including hospitalisation and intravenous treatment. I was on the verge of being referred to a surgeon to discuss extensive, irreversible surgery because my condition was considered ‘untreatable’. More than one consultant had told me they neither knew what caused Ulcerative Colitis nor how to treat it. I was rarely able to leave the house during the morning and early afternoon and in severe pain for most of the time. I never travelled in the car without my trusty box in the back footwell – for fear that I should be caught out .. and, ashamedly, I frequently was. This is a horrible, embarrassing disease that doesn’t just affect the sufferer but also others around you that you wish to socialise with. The patience and understanding of my husband, family and close friends has been remarkable – but slowly, my social life was, of necessity, becoming non-existent.
I have been very wary not to be ‘sucked in’ to alternative medicines, many of which have been recommended to me in the past by well meaning friends. In desperation, and at my husbands insistence, I contacted Helena (she had been recommended) and within 3 weeks of starting treatment my symptoms had generally eased and some had disappeared entirely.
I am, generally, a positive person and have approached each new medication with the view that this would be ‘the one’. The same could not be said of my first treatment with Helena! OK, I had read her website and vaguely grasped the concept but this did not prepare me for the frankly ‘weird’ bottle of drops that I clutched as I emerged from her consulting room in Dorking. I can, therefore, assure you that I was not in a particularly positive frame of mind when I started with the medication. It took just a few days, in my case, for me to start to feel different – my tummy wasn’t ‘grumbling’ as much and the severe tummy cramps were easing for the first time for months. Within two weeks I was able to go out to dinner in a restaurant and not dash away from the table all of the time (in fact, not at all). After 4 weeks of taking the drops (the least intrusive treatment I have ever had, trust me, you wouldn’t want to know what some of the others have been!) I was no longer having to dash to the loo in the night and the bleeding that I had been experiencing was beginning to become less. I am now into my third month of her treatment and continue to improve daily. My symptoms have all but disappeared – no bleeding, no pain and tummy discomfort at all and probably only 2 or 3 visits to the loo in the morning before I feel confident enough to leave the house.
I still don’t understand fully how Digital Homeopathy works – but it does and I would urge anybody suffering with Ulcerative Colitis to give it a try. The cynics amongst us would say I am in remission – but I know how much better I am – I haven’t felt like this for years!”
