Quite often we see Doctors telling their patients that your disease has no cure. This is a wrong statement. At the most we can say “I have no cure for your disease.”

An even better answer is “I have no cure for your disease in my pathy.”

There may be advances available in other countries that we may not be aware of and there may be treatments available in other pathies and the same may not be in our knowledge.

There may be groups in India who are attempting joint consultations with other pathies.

For example, one may like to treat a cancer non-responding to chemotherapy by adding Pranayama, Yoga, Ayurvedic Panchkarma, Unnani rasayanas and homeopathic nosodes. The addition of the above may convert non responding chemotherapy to a responding one.

Similarly, the treatment of mild hypertension may include Ayurvedic Dosha-specific diet, Ayurveda-based basti panchkarma, Unani-based rasayana, homeopathy-based constitutional medicine and with minimal does of allopathic drug.
