Guest LuckyGrey Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 I'm so glad Princess is home again Can I ask what diet you have her on? Keep feeling better, sweetheart Thanks! She is on IVD Rabbit and Potato strictly. If she tolerates it, they make a treat too. We had her on ID and the doc said that it was not good for food allergies, but was good for diahrrea. This is now her fourth food that we are trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest LuckyGrey Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 (edited) Well, the biopsies of her bowels came back negative and her diagnosis is severe Irritable Bowel Disorder. She is on pepcid and prednisone. Her albumin level will be checked again Friday. She is quite sluggish, but she has been through a lot in a short time. Hope eveyone has a Happy and Healthy Thanksgiving! Edited November 22, 2007 by LuckyGrey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest LuckyGrey Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Update: Princess is now on 1 1/2 Prednisone every oher day and 1 Imuran every other day. Her Albumin has been stable and we are slowly trying to reduce her prednisone. At one point we went too fast and had to increase her dose. The prednisone is driving her crazy. She lost about 80% of her hair and she is eating things like socks and plastic that she never did before. She also excessively licks. Bitter yuck seems to have helped diminish that. Her quality of life since being diagnosed is much better. Her diet is stable and she does not have stomach distress except for the other day when she ate my Ipod wires which resulted in an e-vet visit. I'd like to thank everyone who has sent well wishes and advice through this illness. Princess is doing great!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvgreys Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Very glad to hear your news. Must be a huge relief to have her at a stable place with the IBD. Sending ear scritches and 's to your pretty girlie.
