I was wondering if anyone has heard of or tried Traumeel or Toxicodendrum. I met a woman who takes both for her Sciatica and says it works great for her. They are both homeopathic, over-the-counter supplements. I've never tried them or heard of them before speaking to this woman, but who knows, maybe they might work well for some of us. If anybody has any info or experience with them, I would love to hear about it.

Sorry Blair I have not heard of either one of them. Have you done any research online or perhaps spoken with your doctor? I would be curious about them as well.

Hi Blair, my name is Leah Botma. My first Naturopath gave me Traumeel. I would say it helped my stress level wich helped me deal with the pain better, but not get rid of the pain. She also gave me Neuralgo Rheum and B vitamin injections. It helped but was getting too expensive for me to afford. So I found another Naturopath who does accupunture, I.V. therapy, gives me Hawthorne to sleep, and Nag-Msm to help my overly tense muscles relax. She is an awesome Dr. Who works with me. Again this all helps me deal with the pain, but not get rid of it totally. I have never heard of Toxicodendrum. I will ask her about it and see what she thinks and get back to you. You can email me at lejabot83@yahoo.com if you need to talk or have more questions. I hope this helps, God Bless!
