Duchenne: Junior has Duchenne's muscular dystrophy and you are treating him only with Ayurveda and homeopathy. Mainstream medicine cannot cure Duchenne's, but I hope you don't think that the dropping CPK is due to his getting better. It's from his muscles wasting away. I'm sorry about Junior. Get informed about your options & recognize that traditional healing is mostly about relationship with practitioner.

No right answer: Unfortunately muscular dystrophy is a progressive debilitating disease no matter which treatment you use. Your best advice would come from a medically trained provider who has worked with homepathic treatments. Steroids have been shown to be affective but also carry many side effects that the Homepathic providers are trying to avoid.
