Wow, thats amazing!

Congratulations on bringing the disease under control and giving so much quality time to your dog.

What a wonderful result.

:)

Glad to hear that the dog, Tommy is doing so well. I am not sure whether this proves my hypothesis, but like to think that maybe it is?
Either way I feel that this success is worthy of more discussion and thought.

I wish I had time to do more research and perhaps end the minor relapses that tommy is experiencing.
One thing that may be worth looking at is Albendazole as it seems to be similar to Mebendazole, but gets into organs better and sorts out cysts and such...

I recently got hold of some pills, courtesy of the Mozambique Government, as one is supposed to be a preventative for Elephantitis.
Hence my cursory knowledge of it.
Everyone on site was very energetic that day...

Thats interesting logic, although I am combining the Mebendazole with Cimetidine as I think it may do a similar thing. These are interesting sources to read on the combination:

http://www.thedcasit...umID10/474.html

One thing is I tend to cylce the Mebendazole only once a month for 3 days on. I thought about doing it longer but was worried about the effects on the liver - what do you think? If Tommy has a relapse I tend to put him back on the Mebendazole for a week.

This thread inspired me to look up Mebendazole and Albendazole again, looking for recent research. I found this study with an interesting result:

Repositioning of the anthelmintic drug mebendazole for the treatment for colon cancer [2013]
http://link.springer...3-1539-5#page-1

Both drugs were active against colon cancer, but "Data from the NCI 60 cell line panel revealed only modest correlation between MBZ and ABZ, indicating differences in mechanism of action." Also it appears based on the specific tests done that Mebendazole appeared to be a better candidate for a cancer drug.

I wonder how long the dog survived. I imagine it was quite painful for the animal. I hope sufficient pain medication was provided to ease suffering.

I expect the original author has not returned to the website since his pet's demise.



Actually it is quite the opposite, the dog is doing really well. I wanted to return and post an update but was going to do this after I had arranged another scan so that I could give a clearer picture. In the time since my original post the following has happened:

1) The dog has put on nearly 5kg
2) Generally he seems really well and does not present in any way that he is ill.
3) He eats 3 times a day and is as crazy about food as before the cancer diagnosis (even stealing food by opening doors!)
3) For the last 6 months I have been walking the dog between 3-5 miles every day.

I must mention that every couple of months the dog may go down for a couple of days (off food, slight blood in stool and lack of energy) but always comes back up. I suspect that the cancer hasn't completely gone but it is very much under control.

I am enormously grateful for the help I have received on here, especially to Logic who has been fantastic. I will post later the current supplements / medication that the dog is on.

I really think the dog will last a year now (with quality life), something which is quite unbelievable considering that the vet had given him a maximum of 2 weeks because of the extend of the cancer.

As for pain killers I have a plentiful stash, but haven't had to use them for months.

Thanks for the update.

Tommy's recovery is inspiring, as is his care. For my surviving dog I will be using some of the strategies from adam32 as well as what I learned from helping the dog who passed on due to significant damage from inflammatory conditions in gut and immune system.

Dogs aren't people, but biologically maybe not so far removed as I thought. They should be able to live longer than they currently do.

Can you give us an update on your dog?   It's a fantastic story.   I hope he had some good additional life since the post a year ago.

 

Can you let us know what your final stack was?   The curcurmin was not liposomal, so I wonder if that really got where it needed to go.

 

The C60 is the wild card in the last stack you posted.

 

If you do post the final stack, give us your opinions on which supplements were best tolerated by the dog and your own opinions on which might have been efficacious and what your evidence for that was.

This is my favourite thread ever. I must admit I was sceptical of the dogs chances at first but wow. Congratulations Adam your dedication to your dog really paid off. I don't think there are many dog owners out three that would put in so much time and dedication. You probably did a better job than a vet. And congrats to the posters on here also, sometimes the theory and reality don't stack up but it seems not in this case.
