I understand they want everyone to get the best results possible, but our pockets are tapped for this big pound puppy. Looks like he's going to be getting Benadryl until it's time to say good-bye. Oh, and I recalculated, it would cost $200 for the generic Atopica (haven't heard good things about) or $400 freakin' bucks A MONTH for the brand name. Sheesh. |
Oh Amanda

- I'm so sorry he is suffering so much, I know how much you care for your babies. Fyi, I had tried the Proaller and Notatum w/ Marcel and didn't have results. I can't say if those 2 things coupled w/ the Sterol117 would be the key or not - but that'd be a very expensive trial, no doubt about it.
What about the Moducare (iherb) or Immune Response (Only Natural Pet)? The real active ingred. (in terms of histamine) in Sterol117 is present in the Moducare ($19 for 90caps). Honestly, I don't think anyone can say that the *only* thing that works for a dog (or human, for that matter) is these "three" products, ya know? In reading reviews for the sterol products - there are both people and pets getting a lot of relief - so maybe your baby would do great on just the one product.
I have the highest respect for Susan, but I have to disagree w/ her a bit on this one, to be honest. There is no proof that a sterol product cannot work alone, in fact, there IS proof out there that
it does.
Hugs, girl.
