Edmond man says cheap drug for dogs cured his cancer
MSN.com ^ | 4-26-19 | n/a

When you tell someone a medicine for dogs cured your cancer, you better be ready for some skeptics, but Joe Tippens says it saved his life, and the lives of others.

Now, even cancer researchers are open to the possibility it might be true.

"My stomach, my neck, my liver, my pancreas, my bladder, my bones -- it was everywhere," Tippens said.

Tippens said he was told to go home, call hospice and say his goodbyes two years ago.

The doctors were unanimous, he was going to die of small cell lung cancer.

"Once that kind of cancer goes that far afield, the odds of survival are less than 1 percent, and median life expectancy is three months," Tippens said.

Tippens said he went from 220 pounds to 110.

"I was a skeleton with skin hanging off of it," he said. "It was difficult."

But that was January of 2017. Today, Tippens is very much alive and what he credits for his survival has doctors scratching their heads, and the rest of us raising eyebrows.

"About half the people think I'm just crazy," he said. "And about half the people want to know more and dig deeper."

Tippens said he received a tip from a veterinarian, of all people. And in his desperation, he turned from people medicine to dog medicine.

Specifically, something you give your dog when it has worms.

"The truth is stranger than fiction, you know?" Tippens said, laughing.

Just three months later, Tippens says, his cancer was gone...

Horses and dogs are wormed on regular schedules for their entire lives. I have only heard of toxicity problems (dogs) when the dose is too high for the animals body weight.
I would definitely take Panacur before trying chemo. Chemo is ugly.
For general purposes I take Ivermectin (wormer) if I have spent time in a third world country. No adverse affects.

Real researchers, doctors, and others involved can just move on to another disease. It would be lovely if we could have a cure for cancer.

Here’s more info on “de-wormer” and cancer.

Research at University of California 2 years ago:

I read the article at the link.

I wish it said the specific name of his cancer and the dog meds!

After 3 decades of smoking, I found out our family is predisposed to throat cancer from my sister dying of it and another sister doing our genealogy and finding out that others had died of it too.

Also, I will add this from his blog to this FR Post. I suggest reading his blog, where he documents his story...

Strangest Call of My Life from a Veterinarian - Jan. 2017

The meaning of the Vet Med symbol couldn't fit my precarious situation more perfectly.....even though I am human.  The staff of the Greek god Aesculapius, encircled by a sacred serpent, is held as a symbol of hope and triumph over illness.  It represents the miraculous events that occur as nature defies the inevitable.

 

Could you define a better mantra/objective for my situation than this?

 

===================================================

 

As mentioned in the "About" section above, I am a big OSU fan and I bleed orange.  To that end, I belong to an OSU message board where we get on-line and cuss/discuss OSU sports.

 

Two days after coming home from being told I've got 0% chance to survive, I read a post on the OSU sports board that simply said "If you have cancer or know someone who does, give me a shout"

 

I had known the author of that post (and his sons) for a very long time, so I picked up the phone and called him.  He is a large animal veterinarian in Western Oklahoma.  What he told me next should have stunned me, but I was fairly numb and not stun-able (new word that should be a word).

 

He told me a story of a scientist at Merck Animal Health (veterinary side of Merck) that had performed cancer research on mice by injecting different types of cancers into different mice body parts.  And this scientist stumbled (trial and error) across a product in their canine product line that was batting 1.000 in killing these different cancers.

 

He told me that the scientist in question got diagnosed with 4th stage brain cancer and was told "no hope, 3 months to live".  This person decided "what the heck" and started taking the canine medicine.  Six weeks later, she was all clear.

 

I had just been told I've got no hope and 3 months to live, so it wasn't a hard decision for me to take the leap.
