Thanks so much! I didn't know you were still on the list! I will look at all
of that. But what I really need to find out is how to get it quickly-- in
the states it is apparently back-ordered due to some FDA audit that suspended
manufacture for a while. Do you know of anywhere in Europe
Michelle, even if I post nearly nothing, I always keep an eye on the

Acemannan (or Carrisyn) seems to be under test in Belgium, but on humans,
not a veterinary trial. About FDA, it is my (very) educate guess that if
they suspended manufacture of Acemannan in the USA
They are closed for the weekend. I left a message. It is allowed in the US
now, for the past month since the audit ended, but is back-ordered so not
actually available.

That's for FIP, which I don't know that she has. The product info says every

Hideyo, that is not your fault. An autoimmune type of anemia can not be
helped by transfusions, because the problem is the body killing red blood
cells,
so it just kills the new ones too from the transfusion. The only thing that
can stop autoimmune type of anemia is immune-suppressing

I believe she said it her guess was that it was an adenocarcinoma

Well, the internist thinks Lucy has FIP. Despite the abdominal effusion, she
thinks it is dry FIP because the fluid does not look like FIP fluid, and
that the fluid is resulting from the effects of FIP on other organs. She
thinks
it's FIP because of something that was found in the biopsy

My prayers are with you for your sweet Lucy. I had a cat many years ago die
supposedly of FIP in the early seventies. He was a wonderful tabby and white

Just a thought... one of the ingredients in Transfer Factor Plus
Advanced is Mannans, from Aloe Vera. I don't know, but this component
might be similar to Acemannan. Unless Lucy is already taking TF, you
might give this some consideration. Lucy is in my prayers.

Hi Michelle,
I am sorry you haven't had any good replies
yet over on the FIP list, I am on that list too,
they usually run slower and less detailed on
replies than this amazing felv list. I don't have

but they often seem to distrust FIP
Michelle,
I archive the FIP list in my own folder, I searched granulomas and following
are some links and information that came up in past posts. If you would like

Michelle, do you think your vet would be more apt to be positive and helpful

studies on the feline interferon Omega that SHOW it's benefit for FIP, FIV,
