Barley straw query

[Lisak1]

Maybe, but even so I think the barley is treating a symptom and doing nothing to effect a cure. Just my nurse brain coming into play there.

Oh, I agree 100%. BUT sometimes, once you know the cause, you treat the symptom until the cure can work, right? Like I have a fever because of an infection. Once the infection is gone, the fever will be too. But treating the fever will help me feel better while waiting for the medication to clear the infection so why not - right?

True, true.
