Progress Report 3 weeks after second dosage of Thuja (click here to see part 1).
Xuan Xuan’s condition has been relatively the same for the past 2 weeks. Not much odor, no more red dots on her body, active, but itchy. Aloe Vera Juice did help to calm her down after scratching. Her bare skin is very dry despite using both aloe vera juice and coconut oil.
At any point in time, she’s wearing at least a t-shirt or socks. But she is still scratching with clothes, t-shirt and biting her skin till red. She is almost hairless in many areas – side, bottom of tail, eyes and face. In some areas such as her bottom of her tail, there isnt any hair at all after the area recovered from a scratch wound and after the hard skin dropped off.
I’ve finished transitioning her to raw chicken and she is currently on all the supplements. The only Thuja available in the few homeopathic store in Singapore is 30c. If need be, I’ll have to buy online from UK or US and takes two – three weeks.
I’m not that worried about how she look (though I get questions when I bring her for walks). Once she’s not scratching, the hair will grow back. But I’m more worried as she repeated scratch the same area. The skin from those area will be under a lot of stress, dry up and her hair folicles will be damaged.
Is there anything I can do next?
