New DM Study in FL

Dylan · 01-15-2012, 09:07 AM

A veterinarian in Davie, southeast FL, is in the process of organizing a new drug trial for GSD's suffering from DM. The trial drug is one that is used to treat ALS/Lew Gehrig's disease in humans.

If anyone here with a GSD diagnosed with DM is interested in learning more, PM me here.

I'm not sure that there is a website yet, but I'll check. Anyone who wants to know more can pm me here with their email addy and I'll forward it to those who are organizing the study.

I think this was just posted in Health the other day. No website, but the vet name and number for contact.

Here: German Shepherds : German Shepherd Dog Forums

Website would be helpful if there is one at some point.

That would be awesome. (Of course, it'd be more awesome if all breeders tested for DM).
Just watching videos or seeing pictures of GSDs with DM is heartbreaking.
