interferon with I-R is ok. I have not heard or read about any interactions between I-R and anything else, but can not know for sure. So glad he is feeling better. I do think it's a URI. Lucy just had fever, lethargy, and inappetance, sneezed a couple of times and I saw her nose bubble once or twice, but no runny nose or eyes or anything. I think Bandy has a similar, if not the same, thing. Michelle In a message dated 12/17/2006 8:25:38 A.M. Eastern Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
Hi everyone, Well, so far so good...I went shopping with some friends after I got Bandy home from the vet on Sat..as that is hard for me to do when he is so sick, but I thought....he has had all the meds he can get for the day along with subq fluids..I thought it might be best that he rest and I leave him alone so he can do that..When I returned 12 hrs later, he was sitting up in his bed and had eaten some dry food along with little can food and some grilled chicken liver. I sat in the floor with him and he talked to me and was purring again..I don't know what tomorrow will bring, but I am hoping he is on the mend..Along with him having this leg problem which seems much better, I think he has a mild URI cause a couple of wks ago, Inky was sneezing and he is in the opposite end of the house from Bandy, but I was around him and probably spead it to Bandy since it wouldn't take much for him to come down with anything..Bandy did sneeze a few times the last few days but has no runny nose or eyes..I really think there might be something to that..Any opinions about that?? Thanks Nina and Michelle for the info.. I will check out the oli-vet later today. And I am going to talk to his vet on Monday about the IR..I am going to see if she won't give him the .25 dose. Do you know if there are any side effects with any other meds being given at the same time? He is on adequan for the inflammation in the leg which is done in the muscle, I think..he will get it again on Tues and for 3 more wks..Also, what about the interferon along with the IR..? That is one thing he gets daily and has since July, 2005. Thanks again for all your thoughts and prayers..Ours are with you all, too. Kerry, Bandy and Inky
