do you take treatment your friend give it to you without a doctor advice? I do not do that no matter what, unless i go online and search for that medicine and now everything about it i may take it, other wise no chance to do so, im kinda worry person

I do that often for minor illness like flu, cold or running nose. The much serious type of sickness i usually seek out doctor expertise and advice or medical journal for further information.

I must admit I do unless it is a serious thing, some ailments are just simple things that can be solved easily, I am not one that runs to the doctor for every single thing, I think natural remedies can help in many instances.

yes i think i agree with many ideas about herbs, and you are right about homes remedies, but im talking about medicines if some one told you to use a medicine you do you do it or you go to the doctor to take his advice or so, i liked your lines

yes its human nature to listen and some times if the medicine not strong we sometimes do follow the advice, sometimes its not something go to the doctor.
