Ladybug (Severe Allergies)
This is Ladybug's story, written by her owner.
After her mange and infections cleared up, Ladybug was still very itchy. She used to have so many "hot spots" that she would scratch her face raw and chew her feet and tummy incessantly. Already on the maximum dose of Benedryl, we turned to Dr Lynne Dennis. Dr. Lynne recommended Chinese herbs and acupuncture to calm her itching and soothe her skin.
Ladybug has been taking External Wind and Four Paws Damp Heat for four years and is much more comfortable. She rarely needs acupuncture and is now getting Benedryl only once per day (versus three). Occasionally we have backed off the herbs to get a sense of how she is doing and she flares up almost right away. She is much happier on her herbs.
And Ladybug got adopted...by us! After fostering her for two years and going through all of the health issues with her, how could we let her go?
