The 7 on - 7 off is because some cats develop and immunity or a reaction to the interferon if given every day. Some people think this is too long to be without the interferon so they use every 3 days and sometimes every other day. Gary - Original Message - From: Gloria B. Lane gbl

Welders use tanks of oxygen and you can rent or buy them, just don't know if the oxygen in them would be considered safe to breathe. Gary - Original Message - From: Cougar Clan maima...@duo-county.com To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Monday, December 29, 2008 9:48 PM Subject: Re

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something here. You say her blood count continues to fall but she is not anemic. Isn't a low RBC count what anemic means? Or are you talking about her white count? Gary - Original Message - From: nancy denison nancydeni...@fpunet.com To: felvtalk

that shows that it does. But, since it won't do any harm, I suppose giving it couldn't hurt. I would suggest buying the 1 lb. jar of powdered lysine made by NOW, a lot easier to use and less expensive than capsules. The jar contains 822 500mg doses. Gary -Original Message- From: felvtalk

. As for immunoglobulins, I don't think I have seen anyone mention that here or on the other FeLV lists, unless, it was called something else. I don't think I would consider re-homing my negatives, you might be waiting a long time for the positive to be gone, some here have very old positives. Gary
