“Have you tried feeding him raw/going organic/etc”

[Springersrock]

AIBU to want to scream the next time someone says this? Like if it was that simple don’t you think we’d have tried already??

Oops, phone went mad, minimised a pop up and posted by mistake.

Anyway, our dog has been diagnosed with cushings disease and has a huge tumour on his adrenal gland.

We have a CT scan next week to find out what’s going on - whether it’s malignant, whether it’s spread and if it can be removed

It’s hard, my brain is mush. He’s my buddy and I want to do what’s best for him

Over the last few weeks so many people have come out with stuff like - oh, have you tried feeding raw/going organic, or recommending some herbal treatment they bought from eBay.

I know they mean well but it makes me want to scream. If it was as easy as that, don’t you think we’d have tried it?
