If it comes to light that a particular homeopathic journal (or any journal for that matter!) is abusing its peer-review system, than that journal should be taken to task!! It doesn't mean that the entire approach of peer-reviewing research articles being considered for publication should be eliminated altogether! Peer-review is still used by all kinds of respected medical journals, as an important step in screening potential articles.

But what's the basis of this questioning is what I'm asking (ie. do you have any tangible proof that this particular medical journal shouldn't be trusted?).

I haven't taken any of it personally! It's been a good (& respectful!) debate. And I fully agree...the only enemy here is the condition itself!

Also, I should add...the ART did nothing for me whatsoever! But I have heard reports (the article we've been debating + strictly anecdotal accounts from Dr. Andrews & one of his patients) that it has helped some PNE sufferers. I'm not convinced, but I do think it's at least worth further investigation (which is all I've been arguing from the beginning). :)

Yes sorry I was not implying you were taking it personally. It is hard to convey tone on an message board and I just meant I did not mean to be confrontational. Sorry to hear ART did not work for you. I can understand you trying it though. I have tried lots of things myself. With this condition it is not easy to decide on a treatment , as you say there is no treatment which has an abundance of evidence for it. Good luck with any further treatment.
