When Kong was first diagnosed his count was at 7 and he had two blood
transfusions to get him back up to a healthy level. He has
nonregenerative anemia. He's been on a gradually decreasing dosage of
pred and a week on/week off schedule of 1ml of Interferon for the past
6 months. He gets his blood tested every month, and so far, his counts
have been in the normal, healthy range.
My vet is very young, and Kong is her first FeLV+ cat. She told me
that Interferon could not hurt him, but might not help either.
However, it seems to be doing something.
Kong is going for a check up at a specialist this Friday, or what I
like to call, "Dr. McSuperExpensive", and he will be able to tell me
more than my vet about exactly what is helping and how it is working.
I'll be sure to update and let everyone know what he says.
