Back to Eating - Back to Health.

Dear Dr. Miller,

I have a beautiful little female tabby who found me when she was only weeks old in an industrial area in Plainview. 

For nearly 18 years she has been my child, my best friend and cuddle-mate. She has enjoyed a lifetime of good health until recently when we noticed that she was having what appeared to be either seizures or fainting spells.  These became more intense and these episodes were coming closer together.

We took her to our local vet near our home in western Nassau and ultimately had to admit her to the Center for Specialized Care Animal Hospital overnight so she could be monitored.  She was placed on a heart monitor and arrhythmias were noted just prior to her experiencing these episodes. We were told the only option of saving her was to have her undergo pacemaker placement. We were devastated.  When we brought her home she was so drugged up that she was not herself.  My kids eat very well and get supplements.  I rarely give them medication. After having her shot up with Valium, steroids and some other medications and still no options other than major surgery for an animal her size, we called Dr. Miller, sent all the records and set up a phone consult.  We had also had an echocardiogram performed which revealed heart disease.

After speaking with him we picked up the holistic remedies that were made for Pebbles and I was told it could take 7 to 14 days to see if this would work for her.  Well, within the first 7 days we noticed a major improvement in her overall mood, appetite and her episodes seem to lessen each day. By the second week she was doing amazingly well.  We just couldn't believe the improvement. 

We took her to see Dr. Miller where she received acupuncture and chiropractic adjustments.  Dr. Miller and his staff are wonderful and seeing how they interact with the patients speaks volumes. 

When she came home she curled up purring. She seemed so relaxed and content.  Since then, she has been jumping and leaping off the bed, the window sills, eating very well, and playing more than I've seen in months.  She is actually even walking around the house whereas for years she stayed in one room since she doesn't get along great with our other "kids". 

I am so pleased and thankful that every time I walk past her and see her looking so well, I just have to give her a kiss and a hug.  I am so thankful to Dr. Miller for helping us with our little Pebbles and I'm sure she is thankful for feeling as well as she does.  I am also thankful that Dr. Miller offers holistic care to animals and my other "kids" will be better for it, as well. 

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
