Homeopathic cure for synovitis

Hello.

Im a 24 male suffering from synovitis. Currently i am undergoing
conventional treatment whereby i am given methotrexate 10mg weekly.

Well, i hope that you people are familiar with "synovitis". Its a
condition most commonly associated with Rheumatoid arthritis but is
not exclusive to it and can occur independently. In it the synovial
membrane (that is the lining of the joints) gets inflammed. And as a
consequence results in pain and joint degeneration. I must add here
that my RA factor is negative and thus i dont have Rheumatoid
arthritis.

It is VERY different from common joint problems where something wrong
with the joints causes the pain and damage. And therefore it needs to
be tackled differently. Methotrexate is one drug that can effectively
curb abnormal cell growth which is the major cause of synovial
inflammation. However, like any other drug it has many side effects.
In my case it has raised my SGPT/ALT level to 170 and therefore my
doctor has stopped me from taking it for the next 2 weeks and resume
if a retest brings it down.

It is due to this that i am looking for a homeopathic medicine that
can achieve the same result but without the side effects.

I might add here that i have a chronic liver problem as well. Some 4-5
yrs ago i was diagnosed with a fatty liver and eversince then i have
had high SGPT/ALT Levels (like 170). My other liver tests are
perfectly normal. My doctor says that i have NASH (Non alcholic
staetohepatitis). Also i have high uric acid levels (in the 6-8 range
). I also have very high cholesterol levels (last time i checked my
total cholesterol was 235, hdl 41 and ldl 160). They are always on the
higher side.

I have been fat eversince childhood. Currently on a 5 '10 frame i
weigh 210 pounds. My waist is 42.

In addition to the homeopathic cure for synovitis i am also looking
for some homeopathic medicine(s) that help me lower my SGPT, Uric acid
and cholesterol levels. And also help me lose excess weight safely.

Thanks :)

Would you expect a doctor to prescribe for you on a discussion list?
Don't expect it here. Even if you could get a prescription from any
medical professional on a discussion list it wouldn't be a holistic
therapy, which homeopathy is so if you are interested in TREATMENT not
discussion - see a homeopath

Hello,

If you want to try Homeopathic medicine, then go to a Homeopath;
just like you went to an Allopath for western medicine.

I'm not sure what post this was in response to, but I don't think we
should give rude replies to people asking for help, even tho the
requests are inappropriate for the list--*we* know what the list is
for, who's here and why, and what's needed to get appropriate
homeopathic care, but the people asking often do not. Why not take a
moment to explain, or least avoid rudeness and condescension...
