Hi Dizzy,

Hope the Manuka works well for you. There are varying strengths of manuka honey. I had the same experience with a Doctor but from the other side . I had driven my Dad to visit the Oncologist and went into the appointment with him, to my great embarrassment, the Doctor kept looking and talking to me - not my Dad. I tried not to look at the Doctor and willed her to 'talk' to my Dad. When we got out of the appointment, my Dad asked why the Doctor kept talking to me.....

I wish I had spoken to the Doctor about it....

Take care,

Hi Dizzi. I do hope your leg heals soon. What did the nurse say about you having so much pain with the silver dressing. x

Hello Dizzi,
I havent spoken to you before and I don't know what is wrong with you but when I saw your thread about Manuka honey I thought to myself that will sort it out. My OH went into hospital in feb and if they had operated that night he was going to have one possible both legs amputated. Something thank god made them try the honey first. He had a artuary bi pass in the one leg 10 days later. We still have a long way to go. I hope they can sort some dressing out that suits you.
Take care
Anne
