Thankyou that would be great

Hi lindell, Given the difficulty we faced in getting vets to recognise or discuss the Vit C issue at all. What information did your vet use to administer the Vit C e.g.dosage rates, how often? It would be great if we knew more about how the Vit C should be given & what it actually does.

Hi Morgan, :D I agree with your Big Pharma theory totally, when I asked the vet about Vit C or commented on any results they don't want to hear about it. The power of the almightly dollar!!! Hi t(AD)pole, I am not sure crushed up tablets would be much benefit at all even if you aould get them down in adequate quanities. Hi Pitchick, :D Pat asked me to try subcutaneous injection & explained it would be painful so if the dog responded to then give it orally, I have never given needles intramuscular to dogs (only horses) so Pat did not want me to try it at the time. If someone is not confident with needles orally will work, though intramuscular or subcutaneous is better.

Hi Pitchick I treated my dog with the injectable Vit C orally by syringe, it is a very painful injection & so can be difficult to give.

Thankyou all for your comments & advice. I wanted to see if anyone had success or tried this method, as I have used Vit C on a dog with tick paralyasis before, at the time I spoke with Pat Colby herself for instructions, (the dog survived) he had been completely paralised but recovered slowly. I was recommended Pat Colby & Vit C by someone who was told by a vet that her dog would not survive another dose of antiserum, her dog survived as well. If it works with success I wondered why it was not more commonly used or at least tested for success.

Hi There, Has anyone ever used Vit C for tick paralysis as described by Pat Colby, if so how did it go?
