Guest guest Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 I read Dr. Mercola's article today as well as the responses. I have been searching for something to help my dog. The moderators kindly let me join this group for her. Thanks! She is a five year old pit bull/Boston or Frenchie cross. She has lupus. I am also in an immune dog group but this girls problems are very unique and no one can help her. The neurologist feels it is her immune system attacking her CNS. So she has symptoms that include nystagmus, poor balance, (former) mini-seizures, vision distortion, rear limb weakness, sensitivity to sound and strangers. The Neuro says it taks about two years before the dog will need to be put down. They offer no help except cyclosporin and prednisone. She can't have them now because they caused pancreatitis. Her only treatment now is methycobalamin, which seems to be slowing the progression. Also, I would like to read about people who are helped with Crones disease as my 15 yr. old nephew has this. He originally went through all the medical testing and was put on drugs. My sister then took him off all the drugs and consulted for months with a nutritionist who says she can pretty much cure it with diet. He does very good now and is drug free. But yesterday had a flare up because of eating at a Chinese place. He is learning what he can and cannot eat the hard way sometimes. Thanks again for letting me join for my DOG! If anyone else has an animal on LDN I would like to hear your stories. Gail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
