I got dengue in 2017. confirmed by bloodsamples in lab. Doctor wanted to load me up with a lot of antibiotics and vitamin. also said there is no real cure for it. Since I try to be my own doctor, I searched the internet. Found an  (indian) site which mentioned papaya leafs, crushed/blended, can cure denque (and malaria...).

Refused the doctors offered medicine. drank the bitter crushed papaya leafs twice/day. also took fa-ta-la-jorn and drank those electrolite powders a couple times a day.

results: on the day I started with these alternative medicine, the redblood cell count was 80.000. I went to the lab daily for new tests. the 2nd day it was 150.000, and went up from there. 2 weeks later on my feet, and another 2 weeks for getting my energy to normal levels.

Just a personal story. no recommendation here.
