Just don't consider anything that "boosts" the immune system and unfortunately, many alternative therapies do. Success in treating GME is to turn off the immune system, so it could be disastrous.

Last time she was hot, lethargic, unsteady on her feet, very thirsty and hungry and peeing a lot.
I have the opportunity in a couple of weeks to attend an open day offering alternative therapies for pets.
I obviously don't want to compromise her current treatment plan but I am interested in finding out if there is anything out there that could help her to deal with the side effects, or just make her feel better.
Any thoughts or suggestions about things that I should, or shouldn,t look at would be welcome.
Thanks
