Hi Jane

So much for the theory that they discontinued the use of Winstrol because it 
was ineffective. It is used in horses to make them stronger and faster if they 
are racing horses, but a study done in sheep also found that Winstrol also 
repairs knee cartilage and other damage to injured joints. (This is something I 
can also attest to, as I used it with Zander, when at the age of 6, he pulled a 
ligament in his knee that was expected to require surgery.)

The break-ins were probably a symptom of the fact that Winstrol availability 
dropped dramatically after 1988 when the Ben Johnson scandal hit.

I live in NY and my vet says he can not find where to get Winstrol in the US.  
Also, he can not find any info about the drug on the Vetinary Information 
Network (VIN) that he uses.  He is familiar with the drug and said it was used 
years ago.  In fact, he said vet clinics had to stop stocking it because people 
were breaking in and stealing it.  He said horse people who were not even 
clients would come to the clinic to try and buy it.  He said he would try and 
get it for me if I wanted to try it.  But he can't answer any of my questions 
about side effects or if it is safe for a cat with a heart condition or who is 
on depo medrol.  So far all my positives have developed other problems that 
they had to be put to sleep for, not anemia.

I have 6 positive cats left, I am going to euthanise my 3yr old  today who has 
FIP.  Also, one had a seizure last week, and another had uveitis.  Has anyone 
else had any of these problems.
