Hello, it's me again.
I have a client with a 10yo bichon just found out to have anal gland adenocarcinoma ( only FNA was done ) . ultrasound scan was done and showed metastasis to spleen and lymph nodes. Since the original vet said there was no point to surgically remove the tumours due to the malignancy, this owner came to me for alternative treatment.
This dog had canine distemper when it was young. It recovered well and is quite healthy since.
It is eating well and lively. It's pulse was strong, floating and slippery. The tongue was really purple. It prefers to stay in cool environment.
I think this dog has severe Blood stagnation, secondary to chronic Damp-Heat.
I suggested the owner to give it meat and vege diet with Vit A, E and omega oil supplements. I put it on Si Miao San and Ling Zhi at the moment. What other herbs would u recommend for removing the Blood Stasis?
It is a 11 lbs dog, what is the dosage of herb should I start with? Should I go for a higher dose due to the severity of the disease?
By the way, just a quick question about skin problem. As you have said it ususally takes months to improve skin problem, how long of the treatment period and the maximum dosage I should give before I can say the treatment is ineffective?
Thank you for your advice.
Have a good day.
Regards,
