I have written about this on my blog before. <a href="http://sicklecellblog.blogspot.com/2008/11/other-treatment.html" target="_blank">HERE is a list of alternative remedies</a> and therapies. And <a href="http://sicklecellblog.blogspot.com/2009/05/alternative-therapies.html" target="_blank">HERE is a followup to that post (it has more testimonials and links.)<br />
</a> I would just post the blog posts themselves here, but they have alot of links embedded that don't transfer as well.<br />

There are alot of dietary changes one can make that helps with sickle cell as well. Like eliminating fried foods, red meat, and eating more fresh veggies, especially carrots, beets, spinach, kale etc. If you can get your hands on this book (it's rare to find copies in the US) "Back to Our Roots: Food from the Gods" by Chief Ujamaa, that might give you some pointers in dietary alterations one can take.<br />
<br />
Personally, I did the dietary changes, and have gone the Nicosan route, and it's really changed my life and crises conditions. I never have daily pain anymore, and I'm down to about a crises every year (and when I had it, it wasn't major...I was in/out of the ER in a few hours).<br />
<br />
I think it's up to you to find out which regimen will work best for your daughter. Personally, Hydrea scares me, but alot of people have stated that they are on it and it helps them. I think Jhana Blackwood (Cory's mom) is doing a ton of research on alternative remedies too, if you want to shoot her an email. She's a member here.<br />

Hope this helps!
