Thanks much for your advice. There is a holistic vet near us (in Santa Rosa, CA) If you know another nearby, please let me know. Thanks again -- we're going to give it a shot - if we can diminish or stop the tumor from growing Winston might be able to manage with this -- cause he is now --riight?
There are Chinese and Western herbal remedies that can shrink tumors if your dog is lucky. They should be given under a veterinarians care, however.
I know that they are effective, For example: I currently have a case of a 13 year old dog that came in for a malignant tumor in his stomach. The herbs have been helping this stomach tumor, but the added side effect of the herbs is that they are also shrinking the fatty tumors of his skin and a benign tumor that he had on his eye lid, with no other side effects.
Once you find a vet versed in holistic medicine he/she will probably want to change Winston's diet to a carb-free diet because all cancer's whether benign or malignant live off carbohydrates. She/He will also want to add medicinal mushrooms, antioxidants, added vitamin's A and D amongst other nutraceuticals to Winston's diet.
The Chinese herbal formula's vary considerable with the patient but the dog I mentioned above is on herbal formulas available by prescription from: "Dr. Xie's Jing Tang Herbal Company" and include: Max's Formula, Stasis Breaker and Epimedium Powder. Other anti-cancer products include: Blood Root Extract (Neoplasene), Hoxsey Formula, the spice: Cumin or Turmeric, PolyMVA (available from www.polymva.com) and others.
