Terry-I will ask about the azithromycin , we used it alot the first year for all the URIs. Strawberry flavor from the Walmart pharmacy-it was the children's version. He has had regular CBCs all along and also checked for Hemobartonella and always negative for any mycoplasmas. Since beginning the LTCI last Sept, he has had 10 CBCs. We did testing in the beginning to monitor how he was doing while we went from weekly to bi-weekly then monthly LTCI injections. Then lately since his anemia crash in July to see how well he's recovering so we can reduce the Procrit injections (from 3x a week to 1x a week now). I think they suspect it's a flare up of the Herpes virus-he's had quite a bit of that this last year, but in the beginning I thought he may have had allergies and didn't jump on it. Thanks so much!
