Re: Ginger

I did give her the sulphur, which I have in the house, in the manner that you suggested.  I do agree on some level about not giving many drugs, which is why I did not give her the pain killer this morning.  The reason I am thinking about the I-R is that the article on the felineleukemia.org website actually says that it gets positve cats who have stopped eating to eat again in 50% of the cases at the author vet's clinic.  I don't know if he is telling the truth or not, but if it could get her to eat that would be wonderful.  It is not supposed to have side effects.  Well, actually I think I read somewhere that it could, but the vet who wrote the article said he has treated 700 cats with it and has never seen any side effects, and people on this list have used it and have never seen any side effects.  So I thought maybe this one thing is worth trying.  Do you think that is a bad idea? I am still open to not doing it.  I am hoping the dox will make her URI better in a day or two and then I will stop the antibiotics.  The only other med she is on besides the dox is pepcid to try to counteract any nausea the dox might cause.  Michelle    In a message dated 5/13/05 1:48:28 PM Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I agree with Nina - any additional drugs you may give her right now might be a burden and too much to handle for her right now - I feel that she needs a break from all that - at least until she starts eating again.  Michelle, please don't give up, Ginger is going to get better, you have to believe that, and she needs you to believe in her.  I was so scared of losing Leo, and the only people who did not give up a hope is my and my holistic vet. My holistic vets told me to avoid supplements and drugs in a situation like this - that's why I suggested homeopathic remedy - it makes their body to heal and deal with whatever they are dealing with no side effect - you just have to find the right one that works for the specific problem you are dealing with. Michelle, I lost my Henry boy after giving baytrill antibiotics - which almost never happens to anyone - but Henry's body was compromised already and couldn't deal with drugs and it ended up killing him.
