Guest guest Posted September 24, 2002 Report Share Posted September 24, 2002 Forgot to tell you... I've cured my cats of bad cold infections with essiac when vet meds did nothing... so yes you can give essiac to the dog.... give her full scale doses.... (max).

My hubby was petting our dog tonight and ran across a large lump on his left side, just on top of his rib cage. It is not on the right side and is not squishy, but not a rock either. My dog is a 75 lb. collie and he was treated for heartworm about 5 years ago. I know I have to call the vet in the am but was wondering if maybe you animal folk would have any idea what this may be and if you had any treatment ideas. He has been breathing rather heavily for a while but I just blamed it on the heat here. Very humid down south. If the vet does say it is cancer can you give dogs Essiac? Is there anything that dogs can't take in the formula? He's 7 or 8 years old and always been a very good guy. We got him from the pound as an adult so we arent really sure his true age. Thanks for any help and have a lovely evening.Carlin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 25, 2002 Report Share Posted September 25, 2002 Carlin, If its a tumor - try the essiac both internal and external... Suzi keeweedaly wrote: Went to the vet today. She took a needle biopsy of the site and diagnosed a lipoma, benign fat tumor. She wants to do surgery as it is on his chest wall and rather large. Says it would be best to get out what they can now before it grows too much bigger and attaches to the chest wall any more. I am not real keen on the surgery since it is benign, but I don't want to see it grow any more either. Are there any ideas for maybe disolving the fatty tissues? Cayenne maybe? Massaged into the site do you think it would break down the fat?Thanks, Carlinherbal remedies, Suzanne Nottmeier wrote:> > thanks Carlin....keep us posted.> Suzi > keeweedaly wrote:I will give it a try.
