Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) Introduction Cause Stages Symptoms ... Prevention
Introduction FeLV is a very serious disease of the feline world was first diagnosed in the 1960's. Many cats that get exposed to the virus develop antibodies and are able to fight it off. This is especially true for cats that are free of parasites , are current on their routine vaccines, and are fed a good diet. Cats that have minimal exposure to other cats are at significantly less risk of getting this disease. Humans and dogs do not get this disease, nor do they get FIV.
Cause
It is caused by a retrovirus ( FIV is also caused by a retrovirus) that is spread from cat to cat by saliva and respiratory secretions. It is found in the urine, but this is not readily transmitted this way. The virus does not live more than a few hours outside a cats body unless it is in a moist environment, like a water bowl. This means that cats that share litter pans and feeding bowls, along with cats that fight, are at risk. Kittens born to mothers that have the virus are infected in the womb.
Stages The whole process from initial infection to the shedding of the virus in body fluids takes from 2-6 weeks.

Alternate Names : Chronic Granulocytic Leukemia Treatment Treatment is aimed at reducing the growth of the leukemic cells in the bone marrow and may bring about a remission (when no leukemia can be found) with good control of the symptoms of the disease.
The chronic phase can be controlled with chemotherapy , which can be given as an outpatient. Interferon has been used to achieve temporary remission.

Acute Myeloid Leukemia
What is Acute Myeloid Leukemia?
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a cancer of cells in the blood, bone marrow and lymph nodes. AML is also called acute nonlymphocytic leukemia, acute myeloblastic leukemia, or acute granulocytic leukemia. In AML, the bone marrow begins producing large numbers of abnormal blasts. Instead of producing all three types of mature blood cells, the bone marrow begins to produce only one type, usually immature white blood cell blasts called myeloblasts. These myeloblasts then overrun the bloodstream. They can also invade the brain, skin, ovaries and testes, and other organs. AML cells occasionally form a solid tumor called an isolated granulocytic sarcoma or chloroma. AML is one of four types of leukemia. Like acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), AML appears and progresses quickly, but begins in a different type of cell. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia and chronic myelogenous leukemia both progress more slowly. As we well know, there are many kinds of cancer; unfortunately they all come about because of the out-of-control growth of abnormal cells. Healthy Cells vs. Cancer Cells

Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
What is Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia?
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), a cancer of the blood, is the second most common type of leukemia. It is caused by the overproduction of immature blood cells in the marrow (the spongy inner mass of bone). These immature cells crowd out healthy cells needed to fight infection and deliver oxygen to the body. CLL progresses slowly, and it may take years for symptoms to appear or for treatment to be needed. CLL forms because of genetic mutations in lymphocytes, a kind of white blood cell that fights infection. Lymphocytes are found in the blood, and in a clear fluid called lymph that flows through the body and collects in lymph nodes. In people with CLL, lymphocytes are not as good at fighting infection. Over time, they crowd the bone marrow, allowing less room for the cells that make red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. CLL is one of four types of leukemia. Like chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), CLL progresses slowly. Acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) affects the same lymphocytes, but progresses more quickly. Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) also progresses quickly. CLL is often found only in the blood and bone marrow. It may involve the lymph nodes, causing swelling in the neck, under the arms, or in the groin, called lymphadenopathy. As CLL progresses the liver and spleen may enlarge. If the bone marrow space is filled up, there is not enough room for the normal marrow cells to form and levels of red cells and platelets fall. It is important for doctors to assess whether the disease is caused by problems with T-cell or with B-cell lymphocytes. The less-common T-cell type of CLL (5% of all cases of CLL) progresses more rapidly than the B-cell form of the disease (95%).

LEUKEMIA-HOW NEW WAY HEALS ONE FAST AND PERMANENTLY
By Dr. Bernarr, D.C., D.D..
WHAT IS LEUKEMIA?
Leukemia means "white blood" in Greek.
WHO GETS LEUKEMIA?
Leukemias effect about 9 in 100,000 people each year, and account for about 2% of all cancers. Approximately 27,500 new cases in adults and 2,500 in children are diagnosed annually in the United States, and the disease causes about 15,900 deaths a year. Males are affected twice as frequently as females. The overall five-year survival rate is 14 per cent.
HOW IS LEUKEMIA CLASSIFIED?
Leukemia is classified according to the predominant proliferating cells, the clinical course and the duration of the disease.
HOW DOES ACUTE LEUKEMIA EFFECT ONE?
HOW DOES CHRONIC LEUKEMIA EFFECT ONE?
Chronic leukemia comprises 50% in all cases of leukemia. Chronic leukemia develops slowly, and signs similar to those of the acute forms of the disease may not appear for years. Involved marrow may range in color from muddy red-brown to pale gray, and changes are usually first evident in the vertebrae, ribs, sternum and pelvis. Chronic myelocytic leukemia, also known as chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), may occur at any age in either sex; it is uncommon before 10 years of age, but occurs most often at the median age of 45. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), is a disease of the elderly, with 90% of cases occurring after age 50 and a median age at presentation of 65. A prognostically useful staging system has been developed as follows: stage 0, lymphocytosis only; stage 1, lymphocytosis plus lymphadenopathy; stage 2, organomegaly; stage 3, anemia; stage 4, thrombocytopenia.

A few years ago I wrote a testimonial how I cured my dog Shasta of her "incurable" myositis of the jaw bone disease with homeopathy and how I improved her overall health with raw food. Since the age of 10, Shasta has experienced a number of acute illnessses (abscess, VKS syndrome, and just recently a stroke/paralysis) which I treated at home with homeopathic and herbal remedies. She is fully recovered and doing great. Here are my testimonials: Healing Shasta part 1 Healing Shasta part 2 Shirley

7. Germanium and leukemia
Late one night I was called on abruptly by a company employee. From his story I learned that his five year old son was in a government hospital with myelogenous leukemia. The doctor had said the case was hopeless, and because of various injections and medications, the boy's face was full of blisters, and his whole body covered with a rash. He had scratched himself till the skin was broken and bleeding, and there were openings on his sides from which the pus was discharging.
It was such a wretched condition that it made my body shiver just to hear about it. I told him to come early the next morning bringing the hospital's medical certificate with him, and sent him home.

Things To Consider Before
Modifying Your Cat's Diet
by Beth Zimmerman
Always check with a vet before adding anything to your cat's diet!
Giving your cat supplements without a vet's approval may actually be harmful. Supplements can:
1.) upset the delicate balance of nutrients that a cat needs, and
2.) too much of some can hinder the absorption of others, and some can
cause dangerous overdoses.
Although there are many claims about supplements, very little is known about their efficacy as "immune boosters." Just because they are natural or holistic doesn't mean they are non-toxic. There are few, if any, scientific studies that prove their safety and effectiveness in any species, and their quality and strength are not guaranteed. Since requirements and toxicity vary between species (and cats are uniquely sensitive to some vitamins, drugs, and herbs) , what is safe and effective for humans (or dogs) may not be for cats. You should not give cats medication intended for humans unless you have a vet's approval. Again, if you give your cat supplements, consult a vet to help you evaluate safety, effectiveness, proper doses, and to assure nutritional balance.
Do FeLV+ cats need supplements?

    Immune therapy for leukemia under trial
    Immune therapy for leukemia under trial Reported by Susan Aldridge, PhD, medical journalist A treatment based upon the patient's own immune cells is being tested against chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
    Current treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is unsatisfactory because it tends to undermine immunity and the patient more often than not relapses. Researchers at the University of California San Diego are now testing out a different approach. They are removing a sample of the patient's T cells - a specific type of immune cell - and modifying them in the laboratory before infusing them back into the patient. The modification involves culturing the cells with tiny beads coated with antibodies that attack molecules on the surface of the cancer cells. This has the effect of increasing the T cell number and ramping up their ability to produce an immune response to the cancer. So far the treatment appears safe in the few patients that have been treated. Over the next few months, it will become apparent whether or not the treatment is effective.

    Chinese Herbs for Leukemia
    by Brian Benjamin Carter
    I purchased some Shan Dou Gen for my father who has leukemia. He has exhausted all forms of conventional treatment and is willing to try a new approach at prolonging his life. Would it be harmful for him to take approximately 1 scoop in boiling water per day? I think this dose is approximately 1/2 gram. I saw some side effects listed on an internet web site, and do not want to cause him any more harm. I also purchased some Reishi Mushroom capsules for him to take. What is your opinion on his taking these two alternative forms of treatment?
    Sincerely, CB
    CB, Let me first say that if your father really wants to commit to a different treatment, you should get him to a licensed acupuncturist who is trained and qualified to treat with chinese herbs. Just buying some herbs one at a time without any education is not exactly appropriate to treating such a serious disease as leukemia. If it were a cold or something minor I wouldn't be so bold in saying this- but it's cancer... no one without professional training should take something like that on.
