Neko is home today with a PCV of 16%, they took his PCV every 4 hours last night to make sure that he is stable and noe he seems to be feeling fantastic on the prednisone. Lets hope that the pred can help his blood values as well as his attitude...

 

he went from being 84 lbs on friday to 77 lbs on wednesday, luckily his appetite is increasing again so we can try to get him back up to weight.

 

We're all crossing our fingers that this works!! its the last option. We will know by next wednesday/thursday if this disease is autoimmune.

 

 

right now he is on prednisone, doxycycline (for tick borne), and pepsin (to decrease the amount of damage to his esophagus if he continues to regurgitate).

 

Its so nice to see my little man acting like his old self today. The transfusion sure did perk him up even if he's still only at 16%

 

 

Here are a couple pics of Neko's first (and only... so far) beach trip back in december! he loved it. We dont trust him off leash because he's a nose-guided wanderer but we do trust him with a zippy line (I know its a no-no with greys, but he's not a runner, he's a walker :P)

 

I often wonder if he's not a runner/excitable at all because he's always been this anemic.. he's one of those greys that I could NEVER imagine racing... total couch potato! Although he does like to play/wrestle with my boyfriend.

like others, i've been following this thread closely. i really admire your dedication, but also your ability to stay engaged with so many minute details of neko's healthcare. it goes without saying that im relieved that he seems to be feeling a little more like himself tonight. im sure everyone else feels the same. he is a beautiful dog, and i hope this is a good sign.

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
