I had success reversing anemia in two FeLV positive kittens using Acemannan.
I can't say it works every time in every situation, but it worked for me on
those two.

Subject: [Felvtalk] Now it's Murphy-I can't take much more
Murphy has been sneezing-We took Murphy and Rosie in yesterday for check
ups and
blood work. They did an in house PCV on him because his gums were pale. He
is
anemic at 18.5%. This is the beginning of the end. I had hoped that after
losing
Rosie's 4 brothers last year that we would get a reprieve. I had hoped
that the
vet's rough rule of 1/3 would apply to us since we began with 6. We had
Rosie
and her 5 brothers-and Murphy, the friendly kitten that was tossed into
the
feral colony that we caught Rosie and the boys from after trapping and
neutering
their mother-1/3 of kitties would succumb quickly, 1/3 would die young and
1/3
generally live fairly uneventful lives for quite a while. Murphy is
becoming
lethargic at times, sometimes stretching out and sleeping on the floor-not
his
usual pose-he is my eagle, if he isn't on the computer desk next to
me-curled up
in an envelope box (any box will do-he has even tried to squeeze into a
box
barely big enough for his head-LOL)-he is asleep in the spare room-on top
of the
bookcase! He has a talent of springing from the floor and landing in a box
on
top of a 4' cabinet without touching the edges-he is like a little
antelope with
his springy legs. Murphy is the king of cats-I have never been owned by
such an
awesome kitty. He is beautiful with his fluffy, tuxedo coat, huge eyes and
even
huger paws-he has 7 toes on his front feet and 6 on the backs. He can snag
a cat
toy tossed at him like in mid-air like a baseball player and can even pick
up
things using the extra toes like fingers. I cannot believe this is
happening
again. We have begun Procrit, iron supplement and Doxy for the
sneezing/cold
thing he has going on-his lungs are clear, but a little wheezing in his
throat
area. Wish us luck-I am so sad right now and keep tearing up. I can't take
much
more of this disease, so much loss for all of us. Alice and Glenn
(humans),
Rosie and Murphy-furkids
