Charlie’s appointment with Dr. Jeff: April 10, 2020 Remedy prescribed: Nux vomica, 30C, succussed 10x, q-tip dose – given Friday, April 10 Dr. Jeff gave me a re-dosing schedule to follow if needed. I made the decision to re-dose when I did. Observations Saturday and part of Sunday after...

Following this because Charlie has a papilloma behind his left ear that he scratches open causing it to bleed. I'm calling it a papilloma because it looks like a little cauliflower floret. Can we think about these skin things -- tags, warts, papillomas -- all in the same way as far as...

Thank you!

@DonnaR -- Have you been able to access the site yet? I was able to get there when clicking on your link and Dana's. It looks interesting!

Hi @Dr. Jeff -- questions specific to Charlie: I have been giving him Thorvin Kelp, roughly 1/8 tsp at each of his two meals for approximately 350 mg/day. I noticed that the Onco Support has 760 mg of kelp powder in one scoop (1 tbsp). Are these two forms of kelp the same and should I stop...

So...here's how I went about finding a remedy and what I came up with: It was a little difficult to put the symptoms into the four P categories. I was surprised at this. Problematic and peculiar were easier. After that most symptoms seemed to be prominent and persistent. Then I started...

Thanks @Dr. Jeff -- I looked at this resource when reading the other thread about hookworms. It's a little confusing because the info on tapeworms says dogs don't lose weight. Charlie has lost weight although it could be for other reasons. How I would love for things to be black and white...

Thank you @Dr. Jeff -- this helps with my HMDM. Charlie's BEAM is not normal and has changed in a negative direction since I adopted him. However, I think what I observe now is his true BEAM. During the first month here, he seemed better than how he appears now. I believe looking 'better'...

I was able to take a few worms to the vet today. She said they look like tape worms. I took a stool sample in yesterday which was negative for parasites eggs. Charlie doesn't have fleas. The vet said he had them at some point. Are there other ways to get tape worms? Her recommendation was...

Yes, all of this too! Good idea to put all of the info on a USB key. Thanks!

@KellyB -- I live alone as well and think about the things you're thinking about. Some things that I have set up that may be helpful: I've set up an agreement with a friend to take ownership of my dog in case something ever happens to me. It's a written agreement with signatures. I chose her...

Thank you @kingsgrlie -- I check in often to see what's going on with Koby. Your posts have been helpful. And thanks @Dr. Christina -- I realized after I posted that I forgot to mention Charlie's cough. Yes, he's coughing and the frequency is increasing. At first he used to cough after...

I was going to wait to post on Charlie until after his appointment with a canine cardiologist on April 6 but decided to do it now. Adopted 11-30-2019 – reported to be 8 years old; neutered in October 2019 and received all of his vaccines at once in October; one-year rabies; surgery to remove a...

Thank you very much!

I missed what magnesium oil is used for on tonight's Empower Hour. Could you please repeat? Thanks! Kristen

Thanks for the guidance. I have other symptoms that I'm looking at, the ears just one of them. I was looking to see what remedies might show up in all of the symptoms. Chronic skin inflammation really describes him AND there are other things. Thanks again! Kristen

I've been following this thread as Charlie has started scratching at his ears and digging in them. I've started the Zymox treatment just today, without the steroid. Question @Dr. Sara -- in the repertory, what's the difference between ear discharge and ear wax? Thanks! Kristen

@DonnaR -- be sure to tell us what Lucy has to say!!! I'm interested! Kristen

@Dr. Jeff -- this article, Your Guide to the Difference..., put it all together for me in a quick and easy-to-read way, thanks! It helped me get through the highlights of the article you past last week on gut microbiota. Do dogs and cats tolerate miso and olives? They're staples for me. Kristen

@ginnyw -- letting you know that your chicken breast suggestion worked better than anything I've tried so far. The fact that it has a more square shape rather than something that could slide right down his throat made sense to me as I watched him chew, chew, chew. I can't hold onto it...he's...
