Dosed her yesterday morning. She spent most of the day on the couch sleeping on my wife.
Shes been drooling some grosse looking and rancid smelling drool. She would be licking it ofg her front leg like every 5 seconds. She wasnt drooling much at all.wasnt licking her leg much either.
There were hints of her rancid breath but you had to be really close tobher snoot to smell it.used to smell it across the room. Weve gotten a few whiffs of it this morning. But not even close to how bad its been for the last month.
The lump on her face has definately shrunk a bit.its about half the size it was when i started this.
Oh boy did she want to eat last night. My wife had some stew meat that she cooked up with some carrots,frozen peas and some other stuff. Put it in a blender to break up the big chunks of stew meat. She cant open her mouth more than about halfway and im sure its painful for her to chew. She slurped it right up and was looking for more!
She was feeling good last night. Back to being her normal pain in the ass self. I was not expecting much from this treatment. I sure wasnt expecting to see any changes for atleast a week if at all.i dont know if its killing the cancer or not but it is doing something. Im surprised and happy with the results so far so we will keep going with it and hope for the best.
Thank you everyone for the prayers,kind words and encouragement.
For those who havent seen the previous discussions. This is the treatment im trying. https://www.prairiedoghall.com/curing-my-dogs-cancer/
Ill keep updating as long as the mods dont get upset with me.
It started about 3 months ago. She starting grinding and chattering her teeth. I figured she got a string or something from her toys stuck between teeth. Then the rancid smell started. Ended up having 2 teeth pulled,1 was broken. Thought we were in the clear. Then the smell came back and a lump started forming under her right eye,the top of her head deflated on that side. Went back to the vet and had another tooth pulled. Did xrays.and showed me the spot on the roof of her mouth where the bone was showing through and not healing. The smell went away after the 3rd tooth was pulled,but it came back again.
The vet told me it was gonna quick after the last tooth pull and the xrays. Told me a month,maybe 2,3 if i was lucky. Said when she starts sleeping more than usual,not getting up to greet me when i got home was close to the end. He said she would start bleeding out her nose and thats the end of it.
Shes somewhere around 10 or 11 years old. I got her when she was a year old but i dont remember when i got her. Life expectancy for her breed is around 12 years but she hasnt even hit the old dog stage yet.shes got atleast another year or 2 of life in her. Other than the cancer,shes perfectly healthy.
