PANCYTOPENIA DOMESTIC LONG HAIRED KEY POINTS:
- Natural Immunotherapy in several cases of pancytopenia seems to be promoting a profound bone marrow response in 3 weeks, which is not expected with traditional drug therapy
- Natural Immunotherapy, in conjunction with traditional medications, often will improve the clinical response in an otherwise unfavorable situation
Patient: Smokey
Age/Sex/Breed: 7-year-old male neutered DLH (Domestic Long Haired)
History:
07/21/08 – Presented for marked lethargy. The physical exam was unremarkable, except for mildly pale gums and an increased respiratory rate. His temperature was 101.5. Some flea dirt was noted, and prior FeLV & FIV testing was negative. Leukemia, Rabies, and FVRCP vaccines are all current.
Diagnostics:
A Complete cell count was initially performed. Profound pancytopenia (characterized by very low white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets) was discovered. No obvious blood parasites were noted on the blood slides. The owner declined further diagnostic procedures.
07/21/08 – RBC 1.30 million WBC 1.50 thousand platelets 20 thousand
Therapy: Pancytopenia Domestic Long Haired
Vet Immune Professional Tabs, antibiotics, and prednisone were started.
Follow up:
08/4/08:
- A recheck exam revealed that Smokey had made significant improvements. A Complete Cell Count was repeated and revealed a completely normal cell count.
- RBC 9.55 million, WBC 8.85 thousand, platelets 432 thousand. Possible causes of this condition include a viral infection, toxin ingestion, or protozoan (blood parasite) infection.
Assessment:
This type of presentation is a fantastic response in a non-febrile patient with bone marrow involvement. It would have to be assumed that the immunotherapy, not the antibiotics and prednisone, could stimulate the marrow response. Research in humans and rats has demonstrated that the ingredients found in Vet Immune Professional Tabs have a positive effect on bone marrow precursor cells. We have often observed this type of response in recent years.
