TOPIC:

First of all thank you for taking your time and being so supportive of me and my Woofie. You are so sweet. I am so happy that your little Scot is doing well and hopefully on the road to complete recovery. I had to go look up Chagas to see what it even is, never heard of it! Was shocked to read about it and find out it is another disease caused by an infection,from an insect! It sounds very scary. Thank God you were so observant and got him checked when you did. What was the treatment the Vet put him on medically? I am assuming antibiotics and pred like they did for my Woofie. How long ago was he diagnosed and did you use the meds before starting MMS or did u do both at same time?
I too am so grateful for coming upon this site and this forum and all the help and support I have and am receiving here. I truly believe that God sent me here.
As far as the latest on Woofie, and his progress, I think I am seeing an improvement. He ate better tonight than he has been. Barked at someone at the door which he hasn't been doing for a while. Not sure if I mentioned that he now is losing his toenails in addition to crusty type sores on feet, belly, ears and around his eyes and on snout. I cannot believe that this insidious disease is attacking this little guy so viciously! But due to the nails falling off, it prompted me to do more research and I came upon what I believe may be the problem in addition to the Lymes. He has ALL the symptoms of what is called Zinc Responsive Dermatitis or ZRD. I am so excited and am planning to present this info to my vet. My hope is that by continuing with the MMS protocol and adding zinc supplements, we may have a chance of helping me get my little guy back to an acceptable quality of life. I increased the CDH to 20 drops in a couple oz of broth and am still dosing it in 3 ml doses every 1/2 to 1 hr. I am happy it is the weekend and I will be able to get more regular doses in him. I have now started him on zinc supplements also. Sorry this so long, just had to share this new info and would love to hear if anyone has heard of the ZRD or had experience with it? I will be sure to keep Scot in my prayers with my Woofie. Thanks again. Bonnie

Bonnie - Praise God, so glad to hear of Woofie's bit of improvement, just a bark is major. That is one of the things I looked for and see in Scot - just the little things that they used to not do and even if its only a couple barks or tail wags, it tells me there is a bit of improvement. Just touching one of his toys is great also. So wish they could talk and tell us things, but the wags and etc. is how they talk, another thing I watched in Scot was for the sparkle, to return to his eyes.

I had never heard of Chagas either, still haven't taken the time to look it up on the internet.
Yes the vet that did his sonogram said something about it (asked if we lived around brush - we are S TX where the mesquites and purple sage are. told him I did NOT have mesquite brush in my yard (just 3 trees - which are trimmed all the time, but did have purple sage that I had planted as a hedge on 2 sides of my yard, asked him if that counted, he said yes, so I came home and cut them out and killed them too.

The vet that told me (after an internal Med Specialist analysed all his tests and sonogram) that he probably had Chagas - to confirm it they would have to do another $90 blood test this time and check his blood pressure. She told me it was a parasite, that attacked the heart and was VERY VERY expensive to treat. I said, OH if a parasite, MMS will fix it. I have spent so much already, don't have more to spend and they couldn't help it anyway - would just use the MMS (I had told her about it already and that I was putting him on it, even though they don't believe in things like that, but I think Scot will make a believer out of her, after the MMS heals him. One thing she told me was that no one had ever heard of chagas causing a high temp (which was the reason I took him to the vet to begin with), that animals with chagas will just drop over dead, no warning given.

My vet was just treating his temp (blood showed an infection - no one knew from where) all his tests, xrays, etc. were perfect, blood showed all organs good - they had him on 3 different antibiotics, even did a $200 test to test for tick fever - then when they had given up, sent me for sonogram on the abdomen area. I noticed that he wasn't as playful, appetite bad on Dec. 23rd - Just one week after I had found out about and ordered MMS for me. I DID NOT start him on MMS right away, as he was on all the antibiotics, was so new at MMS couldn't figure out if he could take it with them and couldn't figure out how much to dose him. I should have started him RIGHT away, even with the antibiotics, know that now and how to do, but thank God I didn't wait any longer and thank God for Pam and all the others who gave me advice and told me how to dose him.

Last night Scot ate ALL his dinner and played tug o war with our female. He hasn't done that for a long time. I know he's still not perfect, but if I have to dose him every day of his life, I will do so.

Your little Woofie is so much worse than my little Scot, I am glad of even a bit of improvement in him, it shows the MMS is working. Just don't get tired or discouraged, keep the faith. I have never heard of ZRD or ever heard of a dogs nails falling off. Poor little
guy. I'm sure someone will respond, or else do a new topic of ZRD.

God bless you and don't worry about a long response, sometimes you just CANNOT say things you want to say in a few words. And as the forum says, (in my words - things that you say may be of interest to many others and can and will help others). You and Woofie are in our prayers. PLEASE post often about his progress, I am very interested.

P. S. talk about Long - yours was short in comparison to mine.

Bonnie and Blessed1,
I am grateful for you both to keep the faith and continue using MMS on your four legged babies. Happy to hear little improvements are happening. Keep up the great work.

Bonnie you can increase the MMS as long as you stay on top of watching Woofie. As soon as he seems worse back down again. If he is not getting worse with the 20 drops in a few oz then you can up the MMS again in a day or two. Those little signs a wagging tail a small bark etc. are so exciting. It is so much harder treating an animal than a human since they can't tell us how they feel.

Again keep up the great work.

Blessing to you both,

sevenrays

thank you for all your help and advice in our dosing our best buddies. When my little Scot is finally totally good, I'll be putting his testimony on the forum. Can't wait - shouldn't be long.
I am anxious to share with my vet - then I know she will finally believe me and hopefully
pass along how good the mms works on our buds.
Glenda

Hello again everyone especially Blessed1 and Sevenrays. I missed updating yesterday, but read your reply Blessed 1 and yours also Sevenrays. Can't tell you how much I look forward to and enjoy reading your posts and enlisting your advice for my little guy. Woofie has made tremendous improvement since I last posted! I would not have believed it possible if I didn't see it for myself. I think we are definitely heading out of the woods, at least I sure hope and pray we are. He is moving around much more, barking more ( have to ask him to hush even) haha- but really the barks make me so happy. I was eating a sandwich yesterday and looked down & he was sitting there begging, just like he would have before getting ill. He seems to anticipate his dropper of "miracle juice" now and does not seem to mind near as much.
I am using 20 drops of CDH to one ounce still. Dividing the one ounce into 3ml servings. Have got it into him at least 10-12 times a day over the weekend. Also I squirt some of the mixture into his raw meat too. Is it okay to put it in his food on occasion? I put 2 drops of the sodium chlorite (unactivated) in his drinking water too. Tomorrow I am going to increase to 24 drops and see what happens. He will have the gap in treatment while I am at work, so hopefully we will not backslide.....
Want to note that I have also kept Woofie on some of the treatments for strengthening the immune system that I had started him on prior to starting the MMS protocol. Such as: the colloidal silver drops, probiotics, the greens powder (phytonutrients and digestive enzymes) that I mix in his raw meat, fish oil, Traumeel for the joint pain,and now that I have read about the zinc responsive dermatosis ZRD, that I am completely sure is part of his problem, I have increased his zinc and saw a difference in his skin the next day. Probably most of his progress is due to the MMS, but I am going to continue this regimen until something changes for the worst. I know most of you probably would just do the MMS, but I was desperate! Most of the other supplements are not going to do any harm either way as far as I know. Meanwhile the scaly sores around his eyes, belly, ears, feet, and elbows are really drying up and starting to lose the crusty scabs. Have not lost any more toenails last couple days. I cannot express how optimistic I now am! Hard to believe that last week I thought I would have to have him put down this week! He still has a long way to go and may never completely get back to his old self, (he is still limping pretty bad), but I will be happy to just see him have an interest in living again! Thanks for all the prayers and support. I really hope that his progress continues and I am able to help some other "desperate" pet owner down the road who is in a similar situation. I am going to make a vet appt this week for Woofie- she is expecting me to call to Euthanize- I am going to fill her in and hope that she is open minded enough to be supportive of the treatment I have discovered for my little guy. I think she will be amazed! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you dear God and all of you!
I sure hope little Scot is continuing to improve also, Blessed1? Please keep me posted on his progress also
Will update soon. Take care and God Bless

Bonnie - Praise God for the good changes in Woofie. It just shows that what Jim had said, it's never to late to start the MMS. I KNOW that God and MMS is healing my Scot as well as Woofie. Scot is better in the last three days than he has been. I just told a friend of mine, that my Liittle Scot is coming back to me. He's not totally yet, but I know he will be. As as he is - I will be doing my testimony on the web site - don't think it will be long now.

I had told my vet that I am using MMS and I knew it was going to fix him. She did not argue with me, and I told her that she needs to check it out, gave her the web site. I believe some vets are great, but others are like drs, that if it didn't come from them, it isn't any good.
Just DO NOT let her discourage you from the MMS, that is where it is coming from.

Just keep on keeping on.

Bonnie - How is Woofie doing now?? I have been away for a few days - PRAISE GOD
my Lil Scot after being on MMS @ 3ml is doing GREAT - appetite totally normal - temps have leveled out, is playing with our female again. Will keep him on it till his temps have been normal for 2 weeks - so far so good. Only thing I can see that he still has wrong is a SLIGHT noise yet in his breathing (like nose is plugged), but it is much better than before. What a change in him. I will NEVER stop giving them MMS in their water - Female is getting it too that way.

Hi Glenda, I answered your message a while back but do not see it on here! That has happened to me before, do not know what I am doing wrong! Darn! I am going to try again......
First of all, I sure hope your Scott is continuing to improve. So happy for you.
Unfortunately, I am not having the same result. Woofie is continuing to decline. He was doing better, but that was short-lived. The vet did not support my decision to use the MMS protocol. Thinks I am poisoning him. I wrote you all this in my response to you that is missing. I did continue in spite of her opinion. He would have a few decent days and then backslide and have a few really bad days. I adjusted the amount of drops but can never get more than a day or two where he can walk without struggling. He gets severely bloated in his belly and in the past few days his belly is extremely discolored with huge area of bruising where he is bloating! I am still using the CDH that I made. Have used between 6 to 12 drops in an ounce or so of water as many times a day as I possibly can. He is on an antibiotic now for eye infection that is pretty nasty. He is also still on 5mg of pred a day. Really wish I knew what to do at this point. I feel that I am being very selfish and need to start thinking about letting him go. His "quality" of life is not what he deserves anymore. It is just so hard to give up after trying so hard to save him. Going to close this now cause cannot see thru the tears to type anymore right now.
Any feedback would be so appreciated. Thank you so much for inquiring as to how Woofie is doing. Take care of your little guy and give him a hug for me. Bonnie

my opinion
is that the Vet does not understand what MMS is, no one gets poisoned from MMS. MMS is same immune chemical your body makes. Same for animals. However
the protocol for animals is 1 drop per 25 lbs if memory serves this AM.
I am unsure, but could you be overdosing (not poisoning) your lil friend. are you doing MMS DMSO rubs to the area. Pred , is it an antioxidant, if so drop it, oxidation is key to killing disease. Antibiotics are far less powerful than MMS so if you see AB working, something is wrong with the MMS.
I hope that helps, makes some sense. I will reread your situation and add more if I have more to offer.
All the best, change, if it occurs, can be traumatic. Lets keep on trying to save your lil friend while we can

OK 1st addition
CDH, maybe is not the answer. maybe MMS is. We do not know all about CDH yet, We do know MMS does what it claims. Not to say CDH is not working but we have to consider all possibility here. And from here what I see is if AB works and MMS doesn`t, there is something wrong with the system of MMS being administered.
Dogs eat Poo so MMS can`t taste that bad....
Start a standard MMS1 protocol is my current thought here as I feel time is of the essence.

2nd edit
Math
I am unsure we have the math correct. So many conversions required... I can not do the math myself it is so confusing.
My head is still not fully clear from mold poisoning last fall. So let`s ask Scott and or JB to stop by and do the math for us. Or PM either, I`m sure they would be happy to double check your math. CHS MMS oz and ml...I am lost....but there will be a simple answer.
What is the weight and age of your friend.

3rd
I believe you may be onto something with zinc. I read that zinc is diminished as we age, zinc required for making HCl in body for purifying food and controlling illness. What I read said zinc and sodium deficiencies are root cause of low HCl which magnesium is dependent upon for release. I have read Magnesium deficiencies are what is thought to cause menopause but I believe it is zinc that is deficient for reasons mentioned.
I am going to reintroduce zinc to some.
