Re: Vitamin C for leukemia?

Hi Elizabeth, Congratulations on Tiggie's miraculous recovery!  I'm sure you'll get responses from the others on the group, (we're slow on weekends usually), but I wanted to say hello and welcome you.  Since you and Tiggie have already been through so much, and the fact that you have found TF, tells me you've been doing your homework and are probably already familiar with alot of the meds used to battle anemia.  You don't state what the root cause of the anemia is, (which of course determines treatment options), and of course the word "natural" changes things too! :)  I had been supplementing my felv kitties with Vita C, I use one from "Healthforce Nutritionals" called "Truly Natural".  It's in powder form and doesn't have a strong taste, or smell.  On the label it claims, "naturally occurring, truly natural, absorbable, non-toxic from whole food extract of acerola berry.  Most of us supplement with Interferon A which you can get from your vet, L-lysine, some folks use Co-Q10, etc.  A homeopathic remedy for all around body boosting is BioPlasma.  You can check your health food store for that.  I don't know if you are familiar with homeopathics, but you can put a tab, (don't touch it with your fingers), of BioP in a 4oz amber dropper bottle, success 5 times (smack the bottom of the bottle against your palm), and add a half of a dropper to her water dishes, or to some goats milk, (you can mix homeopathics with dairy products, but you should wait 15 minutes before feeding anything else.  You can add it to a communal water dish too. Give us some more details about Tiggie's condition and how you guys came to be together! Nina elizabeth holtermann wrote: I´m trying to find natural treatments for our Tiggie´s anemia. She was diagnosed FELV +  about a month ago, was dying with an anal tumor, was started on Transfer Factor Plus and Seacure, operated on at the last minute, and has pulled through miraculously. She seems pretty much back to normal now, although we count each day as a blessing. She is still anemic, and I´d really like to find something natural that might help that. I´ve heard good things about Vitamin C...any ideas at all would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance, Elizabeth  Yahoo! Photos Ring in the New Year with Photo Calendars.
