Hi everyone, Three months ago, my cat, LG, was first treated for fluid buildup in his lungs. He went nine weeks before needing to have that fluid drained again. Now, it seems that we are having it done every four or five days.
LG is on prednisolone and Salix (diuretic to help slow the fluid buildup). The vet is calling what he has pleural effusion. Has anyone else here had this problem? Do you and/or your vets have any other suggestions about possible treatments for it? Once LG gets the fluid drained, he eats like crazy and is pretty much his old self. He is twelve and a half years old now. Thanks for any and all suggestions on this. Best wishes to all! James G.
