Question
Hello

My name is Nathalie . I live in montreal. I cannot find a Vet that will treat my dog with phytotherapy. All they have to offer is surgery and chimio...

She is 11 years old and has been diagnosed Wednesday with lymphosarcoma, a cancer of the glands and lymphatic system. She had a very big tumor that has grown in a week on her neck. Several other nodes were swollen too. So I started phytotherapy with the dog based on my findings and personal knowledge. I need the advice of a professional to tell me if i am doing ok.I need to be sure i am not doing any mistakes...

Right now i am giving the dog:

in the morning
a decoction of pau d'arco, astragalus, curcuma, shitake and rose hip.
500mg of blessed thistle
2500 mg of grapeseed extract
25 mg cortizone


in the evening :
a tea of red clover and chickweed
450 mg cat's claw
500 mg grren tea extract
25 mg cortizone

once or twice a day, i make a poultice on the main tumor
- with castor oil and goldenseal
or if she has fever,
- a pokeroot gauze applied with heat source.

i have coriolus versicolor but haven't used it yet.


Do you think i am doing somthing wrong, in your expert opinion?

thanks you in advance


Answer
These are all good.
I would suggest adding Paw Paw. Not sure if you can find it out of the US but Natures Sunshine does carry it in the US.
I would also add Protease to break down the tumor on an empty stomach.
Easac tea is also good to use. It is also called E-Tea.
Try to use organic foods or make your own.
