2nd time with feline fibrosarcoma

I've just found out that my cat's fibrosarcoma has returned. Just like last yr, he has tumor size of golf ball. Last yr he had surgery to remove it. Oncologist says it will keep returning. Do i put him thru another surgery to give him at most a yr? What can i expect if i do nothing? Has anyone used herbs? Please help with your advice. I want to do what's best for him but am in agony over making best decision for him. Thank you.

Miyuki is still taking the herb. First 3 days the dose was 1/8 tsp then 1/4 tsp. I found a second tumor growing. The vet said to increase dose to 1/2 tsp. I hope this info can help someone else. So far he's eating.

Thank you for that info on the herb. I will look into it. I will try to find some info on statis breaker for you. All the vet told me is that its a general herb for cancer that is supposed to shrink or stop growth of tumors. It can sometimes cause bowel problems. Miyuki has done well on it. Thankfully he's had no pain yet. Thank you for your prayers!

hi I am so glad you are going this route rather than radical surgery again. I have read stories of some holistic minded people using the herb NEOPLASTENE very successfully. I will send you a link to that infor. I haven't heard of statis breaker, can you send me more info on that herb please....
wishing Miyuki all the love and prayers for a good outcome so that his time remaining is as long and symptom free as possible.....♥

Miyuki started his herbal therapy yesterday. The herb is called statis breaker and is supposed to shrink or stop growth tumor. He's on it for 3 months then 2nd herb will be added. So far so good. Has anyone else used herbs?

Hi Elle and welcome.  I'm deeply sorry to hear your cats Fibrosarcoma has returned.  I don't know if anyone can decide for you if you should put your kitty through another surgery.  I would think there would be a few factors involved if you decided to go ahead such as your cats age and general health.  I am including a link to the ongoing thread by other members who have dealt with Fibrosarcoma.  I hope it helps and again, I am so very sorry.  I'm sure other members will be along with some more advice.  Keep posting - we are here for you no matter what you choose to do.  ((Hugs))
