I am so sad for your little baby. It is so hard when it seems not much can be done except to gently assist her across the bridge when she is no longer happy here, It is so painful. Do you have the epogen at home??Please let me know if I can do anything for you

Well - I talked to three vets and they feel that I am doing everything I can for her right now and they dont have any other suggestions and she gets really stressed out and I am not wanting to put her through --- epogen, interferon, and steroid, lasix they have been all suggested by at least one of them but her being felk they are basically attributing her symptoms to the illness and they are very skeptical so in a way, I am on my own its sort of up to me to try what I thnk it will help her though I know that she is losing blood or have perhaps now fluid in heart as she has a hard time breathing after she moves around ---they took exray on her Friday though they did not see any fluid in her chest , but a little in her tummy (not so much) and thats why my vet suggested lasix I am not again wanting her to go through the stress of ultrasound as they may not find anything for sure anyway (and they did not see any mass through extray) I feel that she is losing blood as she seems pale and as I understand there is NOTHING I can do about it except I try epogen to see if it works for her.. I will see if I can get acemannan as it was on hold by the government a couple of months ago ---

Hi, one of my felk babies is in a serious trouble and I need your help -
She was fine until very recently but noticed that something was wrong
definitely this morning just the way she as sitting.. so I took her to
the vet, and her PCV was 9.6 and took her to the emergency clinic and s
had a traqnsfusion, she was fine right after the transfusion, now she is
running fever of 106.8.. I am assuming that it is reaction from
transfusion. Prior to the transfusion, she vomited very think blood and
tons of it.. and now I saw tons of blood came from stool.. and I am very
scared.. all the blood work was normal except high (50,000 range of WBC)
- it could be cancer or it could be some type of infection.. she is on
clavmox and I just gave her predisolone ---
Any insights are appreciated.. the vets are not really sure what's
directly causing it and I really didi not want her to continue to be
checked out -I was thinking of giving her epogen though her kidney is
fine, I thought it migh help anemia or at least it own't hurt? Also I
was going to start on interferon tomorrow.. please any insight is
appreciated - she is just a sweet girl,, and I wanted to do everything I
can to make her feel better.
