Re: crackers IFA was positive need help a.s.a.p.

[Gloria B. Lane]

I just hate those vet stories - there are so many out there.   I use interferon alpha, 30 units daily, for each of my FELV cats.  However, it's worth checking into interferon omega (expensive, hard to get I hear) and immunoregulin.  Sorry I can't be of more help.   Best of luck,   Gloria   ----- Original Message ----- From: kelly To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Tuesday, September 05, 2006 5:05 PM Subject: Re: crackers IFA was positive need help a.s.a.p.
