Remedy Description

"When I discovered the website about using Vitamin C for snakebite, I printed it out and took it to my vet. Yesterday when I was there on an unrelated trip, the

first thing the vet tells me is that someone brought in their dog with what appeared to be snakebite. The dog was lethargic, her head had started to swell on

day 2, etc. She kept the dog and watched as the head swelled. The lips were swollen and thick; despite the fact that the owners didn't think it was snakebite

(and therefore she didn't give it anti-venin) the vet felt sure it was snakebite because nothing else presents with these symptoms. She couldn't find any

puncture wounds, but felt perhaps the snake had gotten in just one fang, perhaps under the lip. She kept the dog on IV for another day, but the dog kept getting

worse. Anyhow, the dog's face had a big swelling on one cheek; when the dog became agitated, the vet knew she had to do something or the dog was going to die.

Remembering the article I gave her and we discussed, she put a massive dose of Vitamin C in the IV--about 10 grams I believe. WITHIN TWO HOURS, the swelling

opened up, drained on its own, and the dog got immediately better and went home.



How about THAT!??? II am going to keep some sterile saline solution around and if I need to, I'm putting the powdered Vitamin C in it and injecting my dog FOR

SURE if I can't get to the vet in a big hurry and request it from them. That, and anti-venin, of course.
