Chapter 1: "The Dermatological Agent: Ross's Malassezia Mission"   02.42 - John begins by welcoming Ross to the Skinflint podcast and acknowledges Ross's expertise in "Malassezia." He asks Ross to share his background and explain what Malassezia is.   Ross introduces himself as a professor of veterinary dermatology, detailing his experience in farm practice and later transitioning to small animal practice. He pursued further studies and a Ph.D. specifically focusing on Malassezia, and so has been interested in them for more than 30 years.   03.44 - John asks Ross to elaborate on Malassezia, describing it for listeners who might not be familiar with the term.   Ross explains that Malassezia is a group of yeast found naturally on the skin of various mammals and birds, thriving in lipid-rich environments. It typically exists as a commensal organism on the skin but can become an opportunistic pathogen, leading to dermatitis and otitis in dogs and occasionally in cats and horses.   05:27 - Sue asks if Malassezia is the same across different species or if there are variations.   Ross explains that there are 18 known species of Malassezia, each potentially adapted to a specific host. He discusses examples like M. cunicui in rabbits, M. caprae in goats, and M. equina in horses. He notes M. pachydermatitis as the dominant species in dogs, which is unique as it can grow on routine culture media, unlike other species requiring lipid supplementation. In contrast, cats may have different species like M. nana and M. slooffiae, among others, leading to variations in yeast colonisation. There's a discrepancy between what's identified molecularly and what's observed in cultures, particularly in dogs, highlighting an unexplained scientific disparity.     Chapter 2: "Species Confidential: Malassezia's Breed of Intrigue"   8.44 - John asks Ross about the location of Malassezia on animals.   Ross mentions that, in dogs, Malassezia is predominantly found in web spaces (75-80%), lip fold regions (similar proportion), and ear canals (about one-third). Lower levels are detected on the trunk, axilla, groin, and dorsum due to their warm, moist nature.   10.00 - John inquires about identifying Malassezia in cytology with dermatology tests like tape strips or impression smears.   07:35.54 - Ross confirms that Malassezia has a characteristic peanut-shaped morphology, identifiable under microscopy, usually abundant in specimens obtained from areas like a friendly basset hound's ear wax or neck fold wax, which are good teaching examples.   08:17.63 - Sue asks Ross about determining the relevance of Malassezia presence in ears or skin. Ross explains breed-specific variations in normal yeast population, how certain breeds might have high yeast counts without causing issues, and that the anatomical site also influences yeast populations. He notes that there's no clear clinical cut-off for relevance; treatment response often helps assess its significance, as excessive yeast might not always correlate with clinical symptoms.   14.39 - John asks Ross about the clinical signs indicating an overgrowth of Malassezia.   Ross explains that signs like inflamed or greasy skin, particularly in folded areas, ears, neck, or groin, are indicative of a potential Malassezia issue, especially in predisposed breeds (he names some).   16.48 - Sue asks Ross about Malassezia as a primary or secondary disease and its relation to underlying issues. Ross mentions that Malassezia is a commensal yeast and when it causes disease, it's often secondary to an underlying problem, involving immune system imbalances or hypersensitivity responses. Ross confirms that even in breeds prone to Malassezia, like Basset Hounds, there's usually an underlying cause for yeast proliferation. He mentions high Malassezia colonisation in mucosal populations of Basset Hounds, indicating more than just skin folds contributing to the issue.     Chapter 3: "Fungal Intrigue and Secret Signs: Unravelling Malassezia's Plot"   20.33 - John discusses the common misconception regarding skin folds and Malassezia issues in certain dog breeds with Ross. They touch upon the possibility of Malassezia hypersensitivity, its occurrence in certain dogs, and its association with atopic dermatitis.   Ross explains that while Malassezia hypersensitivity exists, its clinical presentation might not always correlate with immediate hypersensitivity reactions. He discusses intradermal testing in Bassett Hounds and the presence of IGE reactivity in some dogs, especially those with atopic tendencies.   25.19 - Sue asks Ross about primary care veterinary surgeons' preferred methods for diagnosing Malassezia dermatitis. Ross recommends simple techniques like ear swabs, tape strips, and microscopic examination for diagnosing Malassezia in primary care settings.   26.21 – John asks about whether this can be transferred between pets and humans.  Ross discusses the potential for Malassezia transfer between pets but emphasises that transferring Malassezia Pachydermatitis from pets to healthy owners is quite unlikely. He mentions instances in neonatal care units where Malassezia-related infections traced back to pet dogs have been observed, emphasising the importance of handwashing in preventing transmission.   28.18 - John inquires about treatment recommendations for Malassezia infections. Ross emphasises the accessibility of Malassezia yeasts for topical treatment and discusses the practical challenges in applying topical therapy to dogs with dense hair coats. He highlights the efficacy of 2% miconazole/2% chlorhexidine and 3% chlorhexidine shampoos based on consensus guidelines, alongside systemic treatments like itraconazole and ketoconazole.     34.29 - Sue asks Ross about the role of steroids in managing chronic Malassezia otitis and skin infections. Ross explains the importance of oral prednisolone for reversing stenosis in the ear canal and discusses the use of steroids in chronic Malassezia dermatitis, particularly in cases with allergic components, thickened skin, and hyperpigmentation.   39.44 - Ross provides a summary of the approach to Malassezia otitis externa and skin infections, suggesting a varied approach depending on the severity of the condition. He highlights situations where combining prednisolone with antifungal treatment may be necessary.   Sue and John express their gratitude to Ross for his expertise and wealth of information on Malassezia. They acknowledge the complexity of the subject and appreciate the insights shared during the discussion.

#AskDrJohnWatts Satyanarayana asks: Sir, why do we get dandruff? Is there any permanent solution to dandruff? How can we permanently solve the dandruff problem? Please explain. In his response, Dr John Watts informs Satyanarayana that dandruff is a fungal attack by the likes of Malassezia globose on the scalp. It could get triggered due to a wet or oily scalp. “These fungi propagate through spores,” informed Dr John Watts. For a permanent solution, Dr John Watts advised taking a daily head bath with a mild shampoo. Though some people have doubts on taking a daily head bath can lead to hair fall, Dr John said that such beliefs are unfounded. “If that is so, face wash brings your moustache and beard hair into contact with water every time. Do you lose hair?” he asked. In case of severe dandruff, Dr John asked Satyanarayana to consult a dermatologist for treatment. “There are anti-fungal treatments available for dandruff control. Ketoconazole and Zinc Pyrithione anti-dandruff shampoos may be prescribed in such cases by a dermatologist,” he said.

Intro (00:00) John introduces the team of Sue Paterson and Paul Heasman, ready for another fascinating conversation with the special guest, Ross Walker.   Log this CPD with 1CPD here   Chapter 1 – What is hypochlorous? (02:05) Sue introduces Ross Walker to the podcast. Ross describes himself as Director of Clinical Health Technologies, which manufacture products based on a high purity of hypochlorous solution; this has been in the human market with the Clinisept brand, and is now moving into the animal sector with the Contego brand via Nextmune.   (02:52) Sue asks Ross how he got into working with hypochlorous acid. Ross says having worked in London and then wanting to change, he was approached to work in the field of producing a highly stabilised hypochlorous acid.   (03:35) Sue asks what hypochlorous acid is and Ross describes it as the most effective disinfectant agent known to man, but is also completely skin compatible to any mammals- so it kills things you want to get rid of without doing any harm to humans or animals.   (04:12) Sue asks how this works, and why it isn't a concern that it has the word acid in it. Ross says this is because it is an acid with a skin neutral pH, so it is non-irritant, non-sensitising and non-cytotoxic. He says it originates in our body in order to deal with invading organisms, through the process of phagocytosis - the blood cells in our body produce low concentrations  and low quantities of hypochlorous.   (05:37) John ponders what the catch is and why this isn't already widely used in the human sector and more generally. Ross describes hypochlorous Archilles' heel - describing the first discovery of hypochlorous occurring during the first world war in 1915, where when soldiers had severe wounds as well as having been exposed to chlorine gas, it was discovered that they healed much quicker than those who had had the severe wounds without the exposure to chlorine gas. This was found to be due to the chlorine forming a solution in the water within the trenches, and this forming a level of cleanliness. The soldiers exposed to the chlorine gas we're also found to have high levels of cleanliness within the wounds. The papers published at the time concluded three things: firstly that hypochlorous was a very effective disinfectant, being bactericidal, fungicidal, viricidal and sporicidal. Secondly that it had a skin neutral pH, so therefore was contributing bacterial resistance without causing skin trauma. And thirdly, that this contributed to the perfect environment for skin healing, maintaining cleanliness without causing tissue trauma.   (08:19) Sue asks the difference between this and hypochlorite (bleach). Ross says that the two are derived from the chlorine chemistry, but that hypochlorite or bleach, is far more skin irritant, as many with no not wanting to have bleach on the skin. But that it is actually also much less effective in killing bacteria then hypochlorous. Ross demonstrates this by saying that an examination of a bottle of bleach would show a very high parts per million concentration, because hypochlorite has to be in very high concentrations in order to be effective; whereas hypochlorous can be in a much lower concentration in order to achieve the same level of efficacy.   Chapter 2: Why isn't it being used in people? (09:51) John asks again whether this is something that is available on the human market and Ross confirms that over the years the number of companies have bought this product in the market, and much research has been done. However, it never achieves its potential because of the Achilles heel mentioned previously. Hypochlorous has a half life of 48 hours, meaning if you manufacture it you need  do something with it quickly before it starts to decay; this is due to its manufacture, which in 1915 was by electrolysis – passing an electric current through a saline solution and generating a quantity of hypochlorous from the anode. This method of manufacture has remained since 1915 until recently, when a new method that Ross uses came in (using a chemical method to manufacturer it). Stabilising techniques used on the electrolysis method, have always produced a low level of concentration, a low level of stability and a low level of purity. Ross says their method pulls the rug from under these Achilles' heels, providing a shelf life of two years, as well as a high level of stability and of concentration - in excess of 90% hypochlorous in comparison to the previous iterations of around 60%   (12:13) Sue asks about the applications being used in the human field already. Ross shares that they initially needed to verify the efficacy of their version of hypochlorous, and so they compiled a study involving ear piercing, with the largest manufacturer of ear piercings and the largest ear-piercing company, and have pierced in excess of 20 million ears using their version of hypochlorous as the after-care. During that time they have had zero reports of infection following the piercing, and that it has enabled the manufacturer to halve the healing time from six weeks, down to 3 weeks. They then launched in the aesthetic sector, so it is used in the cosmetic industry and following the launch in June 2017 it had (by December 17) been given the 'Product of the Year' award in that sector. They have also since gone on to work in the podiatry sector as well as the dental sector with a mouth rinse - in all of these instances the product is doing exactly the same thing, maintaining cleanliness without damaging the tissue and therefore improving skin healing time.  Ross adds that it has applications in venous and diabetic leg ulcers, where it is very effective due to its efficacy on removing biofilms.   Chapter 3: How can it help animals? (15:13) John asked whether this is safe to use in animals as well as people, and what species. And Ross confirms that it is safe to use in all mammals, so including small animals and large animals such as livestock and horses. John goes on to ask the application in these animals and Ross says this application is very widespread, not simply for wound healing applications but also for instances of skin contamination, eczema and dermatitis.   (16:28) Sue asks what papers have been published in the human field to demonstrate the efficacy of hypochlorous against things like yeast, staphylococcus and pseudomonas. Ross says a Wikipedia search will reveal approximately 3,500 papers published on the efficacy of the substance in disinfectant in these instances - and Ross says many papers have been published to prove its efficacy in European Normative standards. Hypochlorous uses an oxidising method of action to dissolve cell walls make it very quick in its effect, rather than those using a toxic method which is slower and can result in resistance as well as sometimes being toxic to the skin in too higher concentrations.   (18:27) Sue clarifies that this includes Malassezia, staphylococcus and pseudomonas and Ross confirms these are well within the capabilities of hypochlorous to kill these within 15 seconds.   (18:41) John asks about its effect with pus and cases of biofilm, with Ross saying it is very effective in these instances, crucially dissolving biofilm film as well as killing it. This means that with repeated application you can quickly remove the biofilm from the surface. Ross points out the physical action of rinsing is also beneficial to wash away the biofilm whilst also dissolving it, and Sue agrees that the resistant nature of biofilm contributes to the chance of resistance, and so disinfectant is a great benefit here. Ross confirms and points out a low level of infection can contribute to a biofilm which will delay healing and that there are many papers published in biofilm application for hypochlorous.   Chapter 3: Where does it fit with existing products? (22:25) Sue asks about the development of the use of topical therapy in treating bacterial overgrowth and infection on the skin, and whether hypochlorous could be used in a similar way to chlorhexidine in this application. Ross says that not only could it be used in this way, but it would do a much better job. Stating that chlorhexidine uses the aforementioned toxic method for killing bacteria, but this can also have some toxicity with the skin and slow skin healing in a way that hypochlorous doesn't. He also states there are growing number of plastic surgeons who are no longer prescribing routine antibiotics post-surgery when using hypochlorous, because they are so confident that it will prevent an infection from ever establishing!   (24:20) Sue asks about the possibility of hypochlorous being available as a shampoo rather than just a spray, because of the useful nature of a shampoo regardless of what is in it. Ross points out that the nature of hypochlorous means that it does not respond well to being mixed with other chemistry and so could never be formulated, as such there will always be a place for chlorhexidine-based formulations such as shampoos. Sue says that this therefore gives us a great choice for skin care and Ross echoes this.   (25:46) John asks how environmentally friendly hypochlorous is and Ross shares that hypochlorous has been given a category five by the environmental protection agency on their toxicity scale, which is the highest classification for environmental safety. Ross says that the nature of hypochlorous action, means that it uses up its efficacy as it decontaminates, so as it pours down the drain you will have a very clean first few metres of drain but by the time it makes it into the waterways it is benign.   (26:50) Sue summarises what we have learnt on the podcast and Ross agrees, saying it very quickly garnered the nickname 'game changer' when first launched. John asks how people may get hold of this and Ross says this is available over the counter via Nextmune to the animal industry.   Outro 29.36 John and Sue wrap up another insightful episode, with some musings of times gone by when hypochlorous acid might have been useful to the podcast panel.   Hypochlorous is available as Contego, from Nextmune UK – for information on how to order email salesenquiries.uk@nextmune.com   References A pilot study comparing in vitro efficacy of topical preparations against veterinary pathogens.  Uri, M.

In Episode 3 of the Skin Flint Podcast, we invite dermatology specialist Janet Littlewood to join us to discuss a very popular breed of dog - West Highland White Terriers (Westies). Janet has over 30 years' experience in referral dermatology, holds the RCVS Dilpoma, and is an RCVS Recognised Specialist in Veterinary Dermatology.    Log this CPD with 1CPD here   SHOW NOTES Intro (00:00) - Westies And Besties John introduces Sue & Paul, before briefly addressing the topic to be discussed and who is joining us on episode 3. Chapter 1 (03:08) - Why Westies? Sue introduces Westie skin disease and Janet talks about whether this breed is more likely to suffer from skin issues. John then asks if there is a link between the white coated nature of the breed and the skin disease and Janet points out there is not any evidence of a link and there are also other white coated breeds which aren't as prone to skin problems. John then poses the question as to whether there is anything potential owners can do to reduce the risk of getting a Westie puppy likely to have skin disease. Janet talks about seeing the mum and dad of the puppy, especially the mum, and looking for saliva staining on the hair coat (rusty/reddish-brown) as a suggestion of allergy being in the genes of the puppy. But she also points out this isn't a guarantee and some severely affected puppies come from mildly affected parents. Sue brings up Lucy's Law, which regulates people buying puppies from breeders and not bad sources. Janet also urges caution in having a rescue Westie, as they are often rehomed because of skin disease, but may well look fine at the point of rehoming as the rescue centre they are in is a low allergen environment. Janet shares a story of rehoming a dog herself, but it very quickly became symptomatic when she arrived home. Chapter 2 (10:35) - Westie Skin Disease John asks if it is only allergy we are talking about with ‘Westie skin disease', which Janet clarifies: it is generally an environmental allergy with secondary issues from something like bacterial infection. It is sometimes, but not often, a food rather than environmental allergy. Sue talks about the horrible black thickened skin Westies can get and Janet talks about this being a result of a long-term secondary infection, referring to it as a dysbiosis (see next question), often caused by a yeast infection called Malassezia dermatitis. She mentions these are even more itchy and hard to control with anti itch therapy such as Oclacitinib (Apoquel), Lokivetmab (Cytopoint) or glucocorticoids (steroids) than the allergy itself. As such the vet should find out what micro organism is overgrowing on the skin. Sue then clarifies the word dysbiosis, and Janet talks about this being the imbalance of micro organisms on the surface of the skin, micro organisms which are naturally on the skin already. This imbalance causes an overgrowth of one organism, bacteria or yeast, which is what she says is often called infection. Chapter 3 (14:14) - Diet Sue summarises the way allergy unsettles the skin and brings the conversation back to Westies; she asks what can Westie owners do? Janet suggests a diet high in essential fatty acids - this can normalise the skin barrier, and she clarifies she's not referring to hypoallergenic foods but diets with these specific oils added. Sue clarifies what these oils are found in. Sue then asks if Malassezia (Yeast) infections can be solved with a no-yeast diet. Janet clarifies the skin yeast isn't like brewers yeast in bread but a skin surface yeast, and diet would not contribute to this yeast overgrowth. These yeasts are normally in the skin in certain areas naturally, but they get out of control when the skin becomes upset. John again summarises how we get to this point and that owners can use a combination of things to help manage this. John then asks Janet whether a raw food would solve the problem. Janet suggests first of all, the importance of bathing with a medicated shampoo as well as her previous recommendation of a diet with fatty acid in, as washing the coat can look after the skin and also wash off the particles they are allergic to. She then goes on to talk about the question of raw food, and puts forward that cooked meat is less likely to cause an allergic reaction than raw meat, so there is no science to suggest raw feed would work and no veterinary bodies recommend this at this time. Sue talks about studies showing the essential fatty acid benefits on the skin, and further points out these are not in raw food. Chapter 4 (23:02) - Shampoos & Foam John raises the question of how an owner even begins to work out what to use to treat the skin. Janet says as a dermatologist she takes an evidence-based approach, so talking to a vet or vet nurse is the best thing for an owner to do. Sue asks what an owner should look for in a shampoo for good anti-bacterial and anti-yeast activity. Janet mentions chlorhexidine-based shampoos (Clorexyderm 4% shampoo, Peptivet Shampoo) and for shampoos with Chloroxylenol as well. For confirmed yeast issues they need anti-fungal elements and Janet suggests shampoos with Miconazole (Malaaseb) and other ‘..azoles' as she calls them. Also shampoos with acids, such as lactic or acetic acid and points out there is an evidence base for using all these ingredients. Sue asks about moisturises for the skin barrier as mentioned earlier, in the form of foams and sprays and Janet reflects on success she has seen in cases using the anti bacterial and/or anti-fungal shampoo alongside a moisturising shampoo or foam/spray. She also mentions how a chlorhexidine-based spray or Foam daily (Clorexyderm 4% Foam and Spray) has been shown to be as effective as a shampoo and with a better residual effect. Janet point out that different recipes work for different dogs. Chapter 5 (27:09) - When To Go To The Vet John brings the conversation to a close asking about a disease being a sign of skin disease and also what flashcards Westie owners should have in their minds for deciding when to visit the vet. Janet explains redness, rubbing, head shaking and scratching of the ears are all signs of a disease and concurs this is a sign of skin disease. Also sore feet, and rashes or what to look out for with general Westie skin disease and all of these should direct an owner to visit the vet. Janet says any time these things occur for a second time it is a warning sign of energy and so an owner should push the vet for more investigations if they are not doing this. She mentions the possibility of a vaccination against an allergy and suggests these investigations could help to treat your skin condition long-term, rather than always treating the symptoms in the short term. John then asks when an owner should in Janet's opinion push for a specialist. Janet again says the second time you see the signs in a Westie, as this is the best way to get better management long-term if this is not happening in the owner's practice. Sue clarified that the specialists as well as having more training also have more practice and Janet echoes these sentiments, saying even if your dog responds well to the first dose of treatment, to push when the problem returns to investigate the cause and not just keep repeating the same treatment over and over. Outro (33:14) John, Sue and Paul conclude the conversation and say how much they enjoyed speaking to Janet. John asks another tricky question to end the episode.

Tinea versicolor is a mild, superficial Malassezia infection of the skin. The condition has a high reoccurrence rate after treatment. Patients often report the malady after discovering an area of their skin that will not tan and, mistaken the disease as well as the resulting hypopigmentation for vitiligo. A few patients will also present with itching and velvety, tan, pink, or white macules or thin papules. Large, blunt hyphae, and thin walled budding spores will appear on the KOH. The patient can be treated with selenium sulfide lotion (applied from neck to waist every day and left on for five to fifteen minutes for seven days). This treatment is repeated weekly for a month and then monthly for maintenance. Ketoconazole shampoo (1% or 2%) lathered on the chest and back and left on for five minutes can also be used for treatment. Two doses of oral fluconazole (300 mg) fourteen days apart is the first-line treatment. Imidazole creams, solutions, and lotions are quite effective for localized areas but are too expensive for use over large areas such as the chest and back. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Today on the Steady Hands Barber Club, we are talking about Seborrheic Dermatitis: Medical term for dandruff. A common skin condition that mainly affects your scalp. It causes scaly patches, red skin and stubborn dandruff. Seborrheic dermatitis can also affect oily areas of the body, such as the face, sides of the nose, eyebrows, ears, eyelids and chest. Symptoms: Skin flakes on your scalp, hair, eyebrows, beard or mustache. Patches of greasy skin covered with flaky white or yellow scales or crust on the scalp, face, sides of the nose, eyebrows, ears, eyelids, chest, armpits, groin area or under the breastsRed skin/Itching Causes: While doctors don't know the exact cause, they do know that it is not a hygiene issue. So relax. Malassezia: Everyone has it! It is part of the normal human microbiome. It is a type of fungus or bacteria that tends to grow in oily areas with lots of sebaceous glands, including your scalp and face. The fungus helps break down sebum, which is oil produced by your sebaceous glands. This process leaves behind oleic acid, which irritates some people’s skin. In addition, if you have naturally oily skin, you likely also have more Malassezia microbes, leading to more oleic acid. Getting Rid of Dandruff: Exfoliating Exfoliation is a process that helps remove dead skin cells, including those that cause dandruff. Look for a beard brush that has soft bristles. In addition to getting rid of dead skin, a beard brush will also help distribute oils from your skin. Before cleaning your beard, gently massage the skin under your beard with the brush. Make sure you’re not scrubbing your beard too hard. That can make dandruff worse Washing If you don’t already, wash your hair regularly. You can use the same shampoo you use on your scalp for your beard as well. Look for these dandruff-fighting ingredients in a shampoo: Zinc pyrithione This is an anti-fungal as well as an ingredient that targets dead skin cells. It is gentle enough for everyday use, but it needs to be used more often until the dandruff is under control. Zinc pyrithione does not decrease sebum emission like ketoconazole does, but it is an effective over-the-counter solution. Coal Tar Shampoos that use coal tar as an active ingredient are aimed at ‘thick crust’ problems, addressing dandruff as well as psoriasis and eczema. Coal tar works by slowing the production of skin cells, reducing redness, inflammation, and irritation. It is very effective, but make sure to rinse thoroughly; the treated scalp area can be sensitive to sunlight. Coal tar also helps to relieve itching. Selenium Sulfide Shampoos with selenium sulfide target the yeast on scalps that can result in dandruff. This active ingredient can slow down cell turnover, but it can also discolor light-colored hair (or chemically treated hair). It is available in both prescription and over-the-counter strengths. Salicylic Acid This is an active ingredient whose main function is to remove scales and scalp build up. It works as a keratolytic, which is a fancy way of saying that it loosens the proteins that form the structure of skin. Moisturizing When you think about moisturizing, lotion probably comes to mind. However, it can be hard to apply to your beard without leaving a bunch of residue. Instead, opt for a beard oil. Rub a few drops of oil between your hands and massage it into the skin under your beard, working it through to the ends of your beard. To avoid more buildup, start with one or two drops. You can always add more if it feels like you didn’t reach your whole beard. The bottom line. Dandruff is a common problem, but it’s easy to treat with the help of a simple routine. Whatever you decide to do, make sure you pay attention to both the hair of your beard and the skin underneath.

He is a board-certified dermatologist practicing holistic and integrative dermatology for nearly 40 years, helping patients who have failed conventional care. He uses nutrition, herbal medicine, supplements, functional medicine, applied kinesiology, psychosomatics and more to heal the underlying causes of skin disorders. Dr. Dattner has a background in immunology, having worked in six different immunology laboratories with renowned scientists, culminating in studies of cross-reactive immune recognition as a visiting scientist at the National Institutes of Health, and that is pretty cool. The research led him to understand the scientific validity of digestive issues as a cause of inflammation in the skin.

Breathe, Love, Heal with Carolyn Harrington | Revealing Secrets To Healing Yourself With Energy | Natural Self-Healing

Most people don't think about their healing process much. But if you want to heal, there are certain things to consider that will help bring it on. In this podcast, I delve into that process and what exactly it looks like from a practical standpoint. Episode Notes: As a healer for more than 15 years, I have to admit, this is a frustrating subject for me! People say they want to be healed, but they don’t even know what it looks like anymore. We have become so disconnected from ourselves, just following a life of distractions. Like mind-numbed robots living day by day distracted by technology, work, family, anything. People will say they want to be healed, but they think if they took ibuprofen for their headache, they’re healed. But that’s not true healing. In my quest to get myself and my daughter healthy many years ago, I learned from many intelligent people that our bodies have all it needs to heal from anything. People need to learn how to do it. You are a masterfully created being. You have everything you need within you for healing. You need to figure out how to tap into that inner healing power you possess to get the job done. And that is why I started this podcast. To get the word out that you can do it, you can heal. So I started with the previous episodes to help you begin to get in touch with your intuitive self and become aware of the energy inside you. We’ll get more into that later on; I’ll share with you some really cool things you can do. And I am going to be sharing with you in later podcasts things you can do all by yourself to help your healing along. But first, I want to let you know what true healing is. Because, as I said, I get frustrated. People have no patience for healing. So before we get to all the neat stuff, I want to give you my five pillars of healing. It’s like setting the stage or laying the groundwork for healing. And the reason why I think it is necessary to do this is because energy healing is a bit different than what people are typically used to seeing. And unless you understand these pillars of healing, you may not appreciate the power energy healing has. So let’s begin with my first pillar of healing. #1 - The first pillar is “Healing takes PATIENCE.” I say this because everyone wants their healing done yesterday. I once had a woman who I was working with take a remedy from me and said, I can’t wait, I’m going to take the medication the doctor gave me. This is taking too long. She told me this like three days after I gave her the remedy. And I’m thinking, really? Wow, you couldn’t wait a few more days. Are you so ready to take those medications which can leave you with all kinds of side effects? I remember thinking, no worries, it’s your life. I know I would want to heal, not be perpetually on meds all the time. But that’s why they make vanilla and chocolate. To each his own. I wish people would want to truly heal, even if it takes a few weeks, a few months, or even a few years. Wouldn’t getting healed be better. I love the word remission. Doctors say that a lot. You are in remission because they know they didn’t heal you of anything, they just suppressed it until it surfaces again. So now you have to live life watching for this disease to rear it’s ugly head again. I wouldn’t want to constantly be watching over my shoulder for a disease. Everyone wants to be healed asap! When they get a headache, they take ibuprofen; when they get a rash, they take a steroid cream, constipated, they use a suppository. You get constipated and take a suppository, then you go. You're healed, right? I mean, come on. Really! Do you think that is healing? You may look like your healed because you went to the bathroom, your rash is gone, and your headache may be gone, but are you. Let’s take steroids. You got the rash and put the steroid on, and the rash is gone. But according to the NIH, which is the government website, the steroid suppresses the inflammatory genes that are activated by the disease. In other words, the steroids suppress any inflammation that is going on. There is no healing taking place. Whatever caused the inflammation is still there. That’s like saying, if there is a fire in your house, you can put it out by taking the battery out of your fire alarm. But not only that, you now have to ask yourself, if whatever was causing that rash in the first place is just being suppressed, where did it go. Think of it this way: Let’s say you have two people outside at night enjoying themselves. Then the mosquitoes come and really start to bother them. The one person puts repellant on, and the mosquitoes quit bothering her. But did the mosquitoes go away? No, they will move to the next person and annoy them. So now that person has double the nuisance from the mosquitoes. That is what it is like with the steroids and most medications. There is no healing, it suppresses the inflammation, or suppresses the pain. It is really symptom based. So you might be asking, what’s wrong with that. At least I don’t feel bad. But there is a problem with that strategy. When you get a rash, let’s say, then you can heal it right at its roots. If you suppress it, then whatever is causing the outbreak goes underground and can travel somewhere else in your body where it can wreak havoc there and continue to grow without you even knowing it. Let’s take dandruff for instance. Something that may be a nuisance, but it is not serious. Right? Dandruff is usually caused by a fungus called Malassezia that lives on the scalp. This fungus feeds on the oils of the scalp and can dry it out if there is an overgrowth. But if you use shampoos and dandruff treatments that suppress the symptoms on the scalp, the reason why that fungus got out of control is still there. And that reason could produce other problems inside your body if left untreated. Would you want that fungal infection to go to your liver or kidneys? Or whatever the reason that fungus got out of control, let’s say you are eating too many omega-6 fats, instead of the healthy fats, which is usually the reason for dandruff, then it will be problematic in another part of the body too. A different type of fungus might flourish and expand rapidly in another part of your body if you continue to keep eating so many omega-6s. At least on your scalp, you can see it and work to get rid of it. If it goes to an internal organ, you won’t know it is there until one day you come down with a more serious condition or disease and wonder where it came from out of nowhere. But it didn’t; it came from the fungal overgrowth that may have started from your scalp. See what I’m saying. Let’s take ibuprofen or Advil. It works by decreasing the number and types of prostaglandins, which are just substances in your body that get produced when there is a need for inflammation. So if you sprained your ankle and your body needed to protect that area, it releases prostaglandins to signal your body to increase the inflammation. The ibuprofen did nothing to the actual healing of the ankle. It just reduced the signaling mechanism of the body. That’s like saying, if you found a crack in the pipes in your house, it would get fixed quicker if you didn’t tell anyone. Kept it a secret from the plumbers who could come and get the job done. That’s sounds crazy doesn’t it when you put it in those terms? You know, I joke about people like that woman, but really I am frustrated. Here’s another example, If I tell someone that their body is calling for a supplement to help their situation or a diet change, they do whatever for a week and say, “That didn’t work.” Now what. Are you kidding me? If you are deficient in a nutrient, just supplementing for a week isn’t going to do much. If you have a leak in the oil tank of your car, would putting some oil in each day for a week solve the problem. No. Until the leaky tank got fixed, you need to keep supplementing it with oil. Our bodies’ are masterfully created machines! They know how to heal. It just takes time. You might have to supplement for a while, or maybe you need to make lifestyle changes, or detox for a while. But the reason it takes time to heal is because when you give your body what it needs, now it needs time to get the job done. If you were deficient in vitamin D let’s say, well taking the vitamin D didn’t solve the problem per se, the vitamin D allowed your body to do its job properly which includes healing. I can’t tell you how many times I hear someone say they started to eat good but didn’t see a change in their condition. They claim the diet didn’t make a difference. But think about inside your body. Just because you quit feeding it garbage doesn’t mean your body is in tip-top shape automatically. It probably took years to get to this condition. It’s going to take a while to set your body straight and heal whatever is wrong inside. Your body only has so many resources within it to tap into for healing. If you are eating a complicated meal like lasagne, or a huge burger with greasy fries, it may have very little energy left over to do any healing. But if you give your body what it needs, it will do the healing; it just might not be immediate. If someone gave you supplies to clean your house, that doesn’t mean you cleaned your house. You still have to take those supplies and do the cleaning. It is the same way with healing. Another problem with patience is that sometimes when people start healing, they get worse before they get better. This is called a healing effect, or herxheimer effect. When you heal, you sometimes see the symptoms of what you are trying to heal worsen for for a day or two. This is why you get it. Most health problems stem from a parasite like bacteria, virus, fungus, or something like that. If you want to solve the problem, you need to kill off the parasite. Right? So did you know that when something dies, it releases toxins? This process may sound morbid, but when a human being dies, you’ll see them release their last breath, and it is a long sigh type breath. Their bodily fluids get released too. Well, this also happens with microbes. They release toxins when they die off too. And your body doesn’t like it much. So you react to these toxins and, the problem gets worse for a short time. Eventually, it really shouldn’t take long, your body will have a chance to catch up, and clean up after the release of the toxins. And the symptoms will go away. Here’s an example. Many years ago a woman came to me with these red spots all over her. So I evaluated her and told her it was a bacterial infection. I gave her a remedy and sent her on her way. I didn’t see her for a long time and finally bumped into her. I asked her, "what ever happened to the red spots?" She said, "Oh my goodness, the spots got redder, so I ran to the doctor and took the steroid cream. Now they are gone." I just rolled my eyes and thought to myself, I wonder where all that bacteria went. I’m sure it is still in her body somewhere waiting to rear it’s ugly head again. I should have warned her this could happen. It is especially a problem with skin conditions because who wants the rashes to get worse. But it just takes a little patience. Those red spots probably would have only gotten worse for a day or two, then they would have been gone for good. It’s called patience my friends! #2 - The second pillar of healing is there are layers of disease that need to be stripped away for true healing. As you live life, you keep adding layers of health conditions to yourself that need to be stripped away for your body to heal. If you lived a really unhealthy life, the layers would pile up pretty quickly. Lead a healthy life, not so much. Think of yourself like a barrel. As you live life, you keep filling that barrel with layers of disease-causing things, bad stuff like eating junk food, being exposed to pesticides, having a stressful day. These are all layers that get piled into your barrel. If that barrel gets filled too much from all the layers you put in it through the years, eventually it will overflow, and that is when a symptom strikes or a disease pops up. It may have looked like the disease came out of nowhere, but it was in the making long before that. So by stripping away the layers of disease, you will offload your body more and more and eventually, your body has time to catch up and do some healing. The other reason why layers are so important is because healing is an orderly process. You may be having headaches, but healing may really need to be done in your liver first. If your brain, which is your control center, is overwhelmed with trying to heal the liver lets say, then it lets everything else go. So now your headache pops up. But before your brain deals with your headache, it has to finish the job with the liver. Does that make sense? I have evaluated people many times that come in because of one problem, and I tell them it is something else, and they think my results are wrong. Well, my results may not be wrong, there is just so much going on inside their body, how would they know what everything is going on. It is like a domino effect, when one thing heals, it then can be used to heal the next thing. Another reason why this is important is because if you do something to heal, like change your diet, you may not feel any different for a while, but inside your body there may be all kinds of healing going on. It’s about the layers, and stripping away the layers of disease. Like I said, our bodies are masterfully created machines, they’ll do the work. #3 - My third pillar of healing is that everything you need for healing is already within you. I recently heard a podcast where a gentleman said, technology has quickly advanced in the last century, but it will really speed up now because all we ever need technology wise is right within us.) That is pretty cool. We are learning that our minds are so much more powerful than we give them credit for being. You just have to stay in touch with your yourself. Get to really know your body and listen to it. It also means you need to quiet yourself long enough to be able to get to know you. You can’t develop a relationship with someone if you are so distracted by your phone or the TV. It is the same with yourself. Take time to be mindful or meditate. You will be amazed at the information you will get if you just try to ask yourself. I know I am continually fascinated by the information I get. Your body will talk to you. It will tell you when something isn’t right. It will give you warnings that there may be trouble down the road if you don’t make changes. If you listen close enough, you’ll be able to make changes and adjustments before anything serious comes along. This is the whole concept behind everyday healing and why I use it as my tag-line for my website. If you listen to your body and what it is trying to tell you, then you can heal from the little stuff before it gets serious. In this way, you hopefully never really get a serious diagnosis and live to a ripe old age and die of natural causes. I know I try to listen to my body all the time. Is my stomach gurgling more than usual, or am I feeling bloated? Am I getting headaches a lot? Is there a pain in my knee? These all signal that something isn’t right. Did you know there is a relationship between structures in your body and different organs? Your knees are associated with your kidneys. Pain in your knees, and I don’t mean if you smashed it somehow, but a pain that pops out of nowhere in your knee may mean your kidneys are under stress. It might not be anything serious, but if your knees start to hurt, then maybe you need to change something in your life that is stressing out your kidneys. So if I get knee pain, at the first sign of it, which has happened to me before, I make sure I drink lots of water and be sure to eat really healthy to normalize my system and take the stress off my kidneys, which in turn takes the stress off my knees. I might even do kidney cleanse. There is an infinite amount of signals our bodies give us telling us there is something not quite right. And there is an infinite amount of solutions that you have at your disposal to rectify the problem. So there is no excuse if you don’t take steps to correct any imbalance in your body. I bet you are thinking, how am I supposed to know the relationships between different structures of my body and their organ association. I got you covered. I put a cheat sheet on my podcast page that lists the different parts of the body and their associations. You can look it up if you want. It’s pretty interesting. But even if you didn’t know that pain in the knees meant there might be something going on with your kidneys, if it were me, I would be sure to eat really clean and relax more. Maybe be sure to take my supplements diligently, and just try to live uber healthy for a while until the pain disappears. We all like to overindulge a bit at times. I get that. That’s part of living a robust life. But when we do tend to push the limit, our bodies will tell us, and that’s when we pull back and detox a little to get healthy again. So that is what I mean about listening to your body and make corrective changes to your lifestyle to fix the problem. That is True Healing. #4 - There are many roads to healing Another aspect of true healing that is important is that there are many roads to healing. I don’t like it when people think they have to do one thing to heal. Some alternative technique can’t possibly work because there is no clinical trial to back it up, or it isn’t sanctioned by the Medical Association. That’s baloney. That’s what the pharmaceutical industry wants you to believe so you don’t go looking for solutions. You have to rely on their expensive drugs that only mask the problem. I know of a doctor who was curing breast cancers with baking soda. That’s right, baking soda you have in your kitchen. There’s not a lot of money to be made selling baking soda as opposed to drugs. But it’s true. Do you know what happened to the doctor, he was stripped of his medical license and now practices outside this country. So now, US citizens can’t use this very effective technique, only foreigners. Crazy! That’s not to say some doctors can’t ever cure a disease. There are many roads to healing and when someone tells you their way is the only way, I stay clear of people like that. I like the philosophy that we all work together for the common good, in this case, healing. If someone wants to take the chemo route is they had cancer, then who am I to say they shouldn’t. I know that there is a lot someone can do if they take chemo drugs to lessen the side effects if they want to take that route. So instead of getting mad at someone because they didn’t choose the healing method I would have, I would help them do whatever it takes to heal. So healing can come from many different sources. #5 - Taking away any barrier to healing. There is so much at our disposal for healing. All kinds of products to use, supplements to take, practitioners and doctors to see. It is a great time to be sick! But you can do all you want to heal, and take all you want, but if you don’t remove any barriers to healing, most likely you’re not going to heal. Let me give you an example. I met this woman once when I was waiting in line after Christmas to return something at a BestBuy. You know how long the waits can be then. Bored as we were, I struck up a conversation with a woman in front of me and she asked what I did. So I told her I manufacture all natural health products. She asked, “Do you have anything for cancer?” I said, “Sorry, I don’t. Do you know someone with cancer?” She said yes, her husband has stage 4 colon cancer. Then she went on to say he will be okay because he is taking Turmeric, and she had heard that cures cancer. I said, “That’s good he is taking that. But is there anything else he is doing?” She said, “No. As a matter of fact, he works God awful hours because his patients need him, he eats terrible, has a huge gut, never takes a vacation and is always stressed.” I thought to myself, “Honey, that Turmeric ain’t going to do anything for your husband.” That guy has so many barriers to healing, he’ll never be able to knock them all down. To heal, it is just as important to examine your life and how you are living it, and remove any barriers you have to healing, then it is finding the magic pill or the magic person that can heal you. Barriers to healing are huge. I’m going to be getting into them more in later podcasts. But for now, know that healing will happen if you just get out of your own way to let the healing take place. What I mean by getting out the way is don’t bombard yourself with unhealthy things and expect healing to happen. Remove stress, eat well, hydrate. Because if you don’t, you might as well put up a brick wall to your own healing. So those are my five pillars of healing. As a recap: Pillar #1 - Be patient. True healing takes time. It’s not just a bandaid. Pillar #2 - Your health is in layers, if you’re able to strip away enough layers of unhealthy living, eventually you will heal. Pillar#3 - Everything you need to heal is right inside you. Connect with yourself to find answers for healing. And listen to your body to see what it is telling you. Pillar #4 - There are many roads to healing. Take the route that feels best for you. Pillar #5 - You must pay as much attention to your barriers to healing than working on finding that magic bullet that will wipe all your illness away. And there you have my five pillars of healing! In my next podcast, I’m going to be sharing with you ways to improve the quality of your food. Do you like to cook? If so, then you won’t want to miss this. It is real interesting. But until next time, Keep breathing, keep loving and keep healing, because they are the keys to life. Have a great week! See Ya.

Se noter og links på sivp.dk/16 Hvornår antibiotika kan være en god ide til en hudpatient Lene bruger systemisk antibiotika til patienter, hvor der er et stort omfang af læsioner, eller når læsionerne sidder steder, hvor det kan være svært at vaske effektivt. For eksempel kan en anbefaling af shampoovask af en langhårsrace give dårlig complience og dermed manglende effekt af behandlingen. Ved dybe pyodermier bruger Lene ofte kun topikal antibiotika eventuelt som et blandingsprodukt med steroid, for helt at undgå den systemiske behandling. Ifølge vores antibiotikavejledning bør vi vælge Clindamycin som førstevalg ved hudbetændelser. Lene gør dog opmærksom på, at hvis en patient har fået antibiotika før, vil op til 30 % have bakterier, der er resistente overfor Clindamycin. Dernæst kan vi for eksempel vælge 1. generations cefalosporiner som Cefalexin (Cefaseptin Vet, Therios og Tsefalen) og Cefadroxil (Cefa-Cure) (information fra medicintildyr.dk) Alternativt ville Sulfa-TMP også være udmærket at bruge, men det er pt ikke i handlen som veterinært produkt. Lene fortæller at efter podning med resistensbestemmelse, kan det vise sig, at selv smalspektret antibiotika som almindelige penicillin kan være effektivt. Og da dette ikke betyder at vi afviger fra kaskedereglen på en ufordelagtig måde, kan det endda forsvares juridisk. Tilstrækkelig erstatning for antibiotika Ud fra en resistensmæssig betragtning er det bedst at holde sig helt fra systemisk antibiotika – også selvom man starter smalspektret. Lene anbefaler en shampoo med klorhexidin til brug enten dagligt eller 3 gange den første uge afhængigt af omfanget af problemerne. Derfra 2 gange om ugen indtil læsionerne er væk. Som eksempel nævner Lene Hot Spot-patienter: Det er en helt overfladisk hudbetændelse og man diskuterer endda hvor mange bakterier, der er i læsionerne. Der ville klorhexidinshampoo sammen med smertestillende og eventuelt en skærm være en ideel behandling. Ønsker du at dræbe Malassezia skal klorhexidinen koncentration op på 3 – 4 %, men ønsker du kun at ramme Stafylokokker er almindelige koncentration (0,02-0,05%) tilstrækkeligt. I podcasten snakker jeg desuden med Lene om at steroidbehandling er kontroversielt til pyodermier. Bekymringen går på om vi undertrykker immunforsvaret nok til at infektionen kan få bedre fat. En tilstrækkelig antiinflammatorisk effekt kan opnås med andre stoffer. Udtagelse af prøve til dyrkning Lene argumenterer for at det vil være en god ide med podning før al systemisk antibiose, men ved også godt, at ejerne nogle gange sætter begrænsninger. Her spiller økonomien ofte en stor rolle. Som modsvar kan det måske hjælpe med argumenter om ikke at selektere for resistente kulturer og korrekt førstevalg vil give en bedre økonomi på lang sigt. Hvis hudlæsion er våd, kan prøven tages direkte fra overfladen. Ellers prikker Lene hul på en pustel og får noget materie ud. Lene bruger laboratoriet KU Sund Vet Diagnostik, der både er meget dygtige og har en god service. Samtidig bidrager prøverne til den nationale resistensovervågning. Den primær årsag bag recidiverende pyodermier Der er oftest en primær årsag til pyodermier, hvor udredningen starter med en undersøgelse for lopper og andre parasitter. Det kan eventuelt være relevant at starte med en forsøgsbehandling alene på mistanken om parasitter. Herfra snakker Lene med ejeren om foder og sætter eventuel en Foder Trail op, hvor hunden skal køre på en eliminationsdiet i 2 - 6 måneder. Hvis den indledende udredning er gjort grundigt nok og hunden ikke reagerer tilfredsstillende på eliminationsdiet vil den med stor sandsynlighed have Atopi. Herfra kan mængden af hudproblemer holdes nede, men ikke nødvendigvis holdes helt væk. Det vil dog oftest være muligt at kunne tage eventuelle problemer i opløbet inden de udvikler sig til krævende hudinfektioner.

Se noter, billeder og links på sivp.dk/8 Denne gang har jeg en meget praktisk og konkret podcast til dig. Rikke siger, at det kan være svært at nå det hele i en konsultationog har nogle konkrete råd til, hvordan du kan strukturere konsultation og kontrol, så du alligevel kan nå det. - Aftal altid en tid til kontrol inden klienten går - Vælg de relevante informationer ud, så klienten kan huske det mest relevante lige nu, og du får mulighed for at forklare alle detaljer. - Aftal et samarbejde med sygeplejersken, så hun farver præparatet, mens du snakker færdig. - Brug kun ét objektglas og lav kun én stribe ørevoks fra hvert øre Undersøgelsen Lav først en klassik klinisk undersøgelse med fokus på huden. Se i poter, under forben, på maven og under halen. Du kan også lave en udførlig neurologisk undersøgelse, men notér dig som minimum: Hoved- og ansigtssymmetri, pupilstørrelsen, blinkhinden og menace-respons. Rikke har desuden en vigtig pointe: Bemærk også om hunden kan høre. Palpér desuden øregangen udenpå for at vurdere, hvor meget ødem, fibrose og/eller kalcifikation der er i området. Huden i øregangen skal være lyserød og glinsende med en glat vinklet tragt. Den vertikale kanal har en bredere diameter end den horisontale. Trommehinden skal være intakt og gennemsigtig, men kan være skjult hvis øregangen er hævet, stenotisk eller fyldt med indhold. Vær forsigtig ved otoskopien og få en øvet holders hjælp fra starten. Hvis du først har ramt noget forkert, kan undersøgelsen være slut, før du kommer i gang. Notér dig også hvor mange hår, der er i øregangen. Manglende hår i et ulcereret øre kan skyldes keratin-nedbrydende enzymer dannet af gram-negative stave. Vurdér også lugt og udseende af ørevoksen. - Mørkt, brunt eksudat og tyk, tør voks: Normalt, men ses også ved lavgradige eller afsluttende øremideinfektioner - Lysebrunt eksudat og moderat voks, eventuelt med surt lugt: Malassezia-infektion er sansynlig - Gulligt eksudat og mildt purulent voks: Staphylokok-infektion er sandsynlig - Grønt eksudat og purulent, eventuelt blødende mukus: Gram-negative rods som Pseudomonas eller Proteus sandsynlig Cytologi Det er en god ide at lave cytologi på alle dine øre-patienter, mener Rikke. Det godt af flere årsager: - Det tager gætværket ud af din tilgang og behandling - Du vil finde flere patienter, der har brug for mere omfattende hjælp tidligere i forløbet - Den overvågning af fremgangen er mere præcis - Der bliver reel og fornuftig grund til en kontrol, selvom ”øret jo ser pænt ud”, så du får fulgt frustrerende patienter til dørs Tag en almindelig vatpind og rul en stribe ørevoks fra hvert øre. Rul striben fra venstre øre på venstre side af objektglasset og striben fra højre på højre side. Du får den mest repræsentative prøve fra bunden af den vertikale øregang. Varm glasset ved at holde en lighter under indtil glasset føles varmt. Farv præparatet med din normale præparat-farve og kig på det med stærk forstørrelse (60x or 100x olie-immersion). Rikke guidelines er, at der er indikation for behandling, hvis du finder mere end: 3 stk Malassezia-svampe eller 5 Kokke-formede bakterier eller 1 Stavbakterie Du må desuden ikke kunne finde neutrofile eller DNA-strenge fra neutrofile i præparatet. Kan du det, er det også indikation for behandling.   >> https://succesivetpraksis.dk/podcast/otitis-externa-effektiv-identifikation/

Steve Dale, well-known pet advocate and host of Steve Dale's Pet World, discusses the Ricky Fund in the Winn Feline Foundation which supports research regarding feline hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. He follows with introducing Dr. Karen Moriello (DVM, DACVD), an associate professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. In this presentation, Dr. Moriello discusses new findings regarding two superficial fungal skin diseases of cats. Malassezia dermatitis (yeast overgrowth) is the most common superficial skin disease and is often under recognized and under diagnosed. The second most common superficial skin disease of cats is dermatophytosis or ringworm. Ringworm is a concern for people due to its zoonotic potential. This talk discusses what is new and useful in the area of diagnosis, treatment, and disinfection. In addition, a brief discussion of what to do when you suspect an outbreak is detailed. The presentation was delivered on June 27, 2013 at the 35th Winn Feline Foundation Symposium on Feline Health in Vancouver WA.
