Re: Pictures and a question ~ marylyn
No they aren't dumb. Forgive the spelling but AIHA is Autoimmune Hemophilic Anemia. Mai Mai had it and alternative vet meds helped a lot including acupuncture, homeopathy etc. The steroids that helped save/extend her life were making her miserable. This type medicine helped decrease the amount we gave her and improved the quality of her life. Additionally, to help build up her blood (country terms) I gave her a lot of liver. I cooked a lot at a time, ground it and froze it in muffin pans, pop them out, bag them and have them ready. As I've mentioned before, I am vegetarian and fixing this stuff is difficult so I make pretty large quantities at a time. It really seemed to help. Differences: This was about 10 years ago and Mai Mai was a dog, the most wonderful Portland Purebreed in the world. I don't know if there is anything here anyone can use but I am putting it on the table. If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow man.

Re: Pictures and a question
Hello Sally, did the Baytril improve the anemia? I am trying to figure it out...does this mean there was an infection that the baytril effectively treated and the infection caused the anemia? Were there other symptoms? Did IR take care of the fevers? We are dealing with fever, anemia and low white blood count...my vet and I are going to talk tomorrow about what to do to treat the anemia. I was thinking of having Isabella tested for hemobart rather than just treating for it. He wanted to just treat with doxy but we used this for a kitten earlier this spring and I'd rather not use it unless we know she has hemobart. My vet is not supportive of using IR. His research shows nothing works for feline leukemiabut I believe he will support what we want to do (just doesn't want false hopes on my part ~ we've been through several mystery illnesses together).

Re: Pictures and a question
Hi Sally, I don't have any experience with the actual eye removal surgery, but we adopted Smookie while she still had her stitches. She was a kitten, about 4 months old, when she had the surgery. She was fine when we brought her home, but we did have to fight a corneal ulcer in her remaining eye, which was scary since that's why she lost her other eye. The lysine was the only thing that helped to get rid of it. She was healthy otherwise. She doesn't even know she only has one eye! :) Wendy --- Sally Davis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi all > > The past two weeks have been very hectic.

Pictures and a question
Hi all The past two weeks have been very hectic. I am dealing with my fiance's illness and hospital doctor visits. Human medicine can be quite frustrating dealing with insurance companies and doctors that are booked months in advance. Junior has been doing fairly well. He is stable at least, I am happy for that. I always want him normal, but his ears with their hemaetomas, and the eye with glaucoma tell me a different story. Plus his lymph nodes behind his ears stay a bit swollen. He get several supplements and salmon oil which I am hoping will eleminate his need for the matacam. I will know in a day or two, because he is now out of metacam, He really needs to have his eye removed, but I don't know about rocking his boat with the stress of surgery. Anyone have experience with this issue? I am so sorry to hear about all the recent losses. It is a reminder that the time with our precious babies is fleeting and a gift. The link below is a bulletin board Eric set up for me. He is upset because I have not shared it yet with anyone. Feel free to visit and post pictures of cats or flowers. General discussion and funny stories are welcome as well. Have a great day!
