Turmeric for Dog's Cancer Post-Op
Turmeric for Dog's Cancer Post-OpPosted By Leeswytz (Il) on 09/04/2015
Hi! My furbaby, Moxie, is a 7yr old Chocolate Lab - he weighs 84lbs. Three weeks ago he had a 4cm x 8cm mass removed from his hind leg - pathology determined that he has Cystic Squamous Carcinoma. I've read a lot of possible helps to keep it from coming back as the doc couldn't get it all since there was a small portion of the cyst attached to tendons and some small chunks fed by larger blood vessels. Doc said there's a small chance it won't come back, but she's encouraged me to contact the Oncology Department at U of I Vet School. A friend is trying to get Moxie in on Ketogenic Care at the facility in TX. Still awaiting info there.
I bought Organic Turmeric Root - min. 5% Curcumin - Curcumin Longa. I started Mox and my other dogs (Husky 50lbs, GSD mix 70lbs), on the Turmeric today with 1/4tsp mixed with Organic Coconut Oil then added to their dinner. I am wondering if folks have any info on whether or not it is effective against remaining cancer tissue following surgical removal of a mass? I'd also bought some Eissac Tea to try that. Any input would be welcomed. Thanks :)
