Hi everyone, our girl Poppy, a black lab, has lymphoma and is currently being treated with a combination of Chinese herbs (four marvels so and Turkey tail mushroom) and predisolone (steroids).She is ok but her back legs are not so strong any more and very wobbly, we are very concerned with her being on steroids for a long period of time and how much the long term side effects are contributing to her condition.If anybody would like to chip in with any information or suggestions, it would be great. We feel we are in an awkward situation, ie, if we bring her off the steroids, the lymphoma could get worse, or if she stays on steroids, how much will that affect her? Any information is much appreciated.Thanks

Rebecca, poke root has been known to be curative for lymphoma. I am not familiar with its veterinary uses, but... if I were in your shoes, I would look into it. In humans, fresh root harvested in the fall is chewed up spitting out the pulp, or juiced (I did a 1/2 inch piece). It is quite purgative and emetic, that passes in a couple of hours, and it cleans out the lymph nodes like nothing else I know.

Dogs may react differently than humans. Maybe you can find a herbalist vet to advise you.

I see there was no responses to you or Wattsy. I hope your dog is OK. My lab mix was just diagnosed with lymphoma and only got an appetite after giving her prednisone. But it is not a long term solution.

I should clarify: the piece I have taken was about 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch. I chewed it up, swallowed the juice, and spat out the pulp. The purgation came in about 2 hours and lasted 2 hours. Felt great in the morning. :-)
