Shi Lin Tong/Shilintong/Desmodium sp. Herb
Josephine, if the Shilintong that Alison e-mails you is one that you would use on your guinea, would you please e-mail to me? It sounds like the one I just ordered is a blend so I guess I've just thrown $12.50 out the window . . . wouldn't be the first time! Glad it was only $6.00 plus $6.50 shipping! Thanks for the info Alison.

Spoke with a co-worker today. She has used TCM herself for her lupus and used to refer clients to a reputable veterinary practice in Utah that did TCM. We'll see. It looks more and more like this is something a TCM practioner will make for each individual patient. Kinda like a homeopath.

Good luck. I can only tell you my experience. Everything I am aware of was done by 3 vets to try and get relief for Angel and nothing but this Shilintong supplement worked.
Here's what was tried over the course of 2yrs:
-3 antibiotics (some for 4-8 wks)
-Numerous urine cultures
-Spay (result of an ultrasound to determine why pain w/urination
-Polycitra k syrup
-Exploratory surgery of bladder (narrowing of urethra was discovered, inflammation of entire genital/urinary tract.
-Culture of bladder tissue
-Culture of vaginal tissue
-Predisone
-Amitryptilline (to try and block pain receptors)
-Dietary change
-Corn Silk and Hydrangea tinctures

Do you recall the dosage of Shilintong that you gave Angel?
-I simply let 1 tablet dissolve in about 2-3 tablespoons of water. Then, I syringed her 1cc twice/day
How soon did you see results?
- within 2 days
Did you keep her on the Shilintong indefinitely?
- yes, until she passed on July 7 while undergoing surgery
to remove an abscess in her abdomen which the vet thinks
may have been caused by a prior surgery or something
that punctured her stomach.
