My alternative vet put Kitty on Intrasound Powder and MacroForce to boost her immune system. She has tumors in both lungs (unrelated to FeLV) that the vets believe are cancer (I don't agree--I believe they are from histoplasmosis because she was feral when she came to live with my parents and spent most of her kittenhood in a starling infested pine thicket). I refused to try chemo or surgery on her over 6 months ago and she is doing very well. You might check the internet for the active ingredient in MacroForce. I know it comes in several forms. She also drinks water treated with Willard Water.
