    Pemphigus - any experiences?

    Yes of course the dosing has to be absolutly correct and only by vet. I have some work experience coming up with holisticvet Nick Thompson who is a homeopathic vet in Bath area, after all the other work experience I have done at referal hospitals with pemphigus im really keep to see how things...

    Pemphigus - any experiences?

    Thats amazing, I do belive in my heart that the only cure is within homeopathy, steroids dont work just slow things down and once they are on a regular dose it can become impossible to wean them off due to adrenal gland atrophy, but there isnt really many alternatives without dreadful side...

    Pemphigus - any experiences?

    Hello, Chunky's started as what seemed to be mud fever on his lower back legs which I was treating, I was perplexed at how he got this though but it turned out to be the start of the disease, he also lost weight literally over a few days and continued to loose it each day. He had the same...

    Pemphigus - any experiences?

    What is happening to her coronets? My boy was three years old when I had to put him down, I since made a page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Equine-Pemphigus-Coronitis-awareness/126090464145296?ref=hl although it was actually Paraneoplastic Pemphigus which Chunky had, the most agressive form...

    Thats good, I watched an op last week with a horse that had initially had an abcess but 3 months later it was still very angry looking, when he started to debride the wound we found calcified granulation tissue, the wound would never be able to heal with that inside it, upon reading more about...

    What an idiot, it sounds like he is in the best hands now with someone who cares for his welfare above anything else, what else could a horse ask for? Its really hard, I lost my 3 yo thoroughbred last year to an awful disease, he deteriorated in the space of 5 weeks before I had to make a very...

    oh dear, so it is affecting him it seems. The only way of really finding out is through biopsy, or perhaps a scan? Fluid will show up dark and dense masses are white so your vet may be able to differentiate?? If its cancer, in an animal there is very little to do other than end suffering...

    How old is he? Does he have any under his tail? My 31 year old Arab has had melenomas under his tail for the past 12 years without bother, obviously yours are in a different place, how long have you had him for and has he always had them and have they grown larger since you have had him??

    http://chestofbooks.com/animals/horses/Health-Disease-Treatment-1/Anatomy-Of-Horse-s-Head.html have a look at the anatomy of the horses head, it looks in line with glands, I would probably say from looking at it that it is glandular, especially if it is on the same sides - although glands can...

    Wow that looks quite severe! Any other symptoms? Maybe Urticaria or an allergy to something, hopefully will go down and you wont see anymore of it but just be very careful, speaking from experience I had a bad time with this sort of thing - look more to Aloe Vera juice, Omega oils vit E to calm...
