When gray cat was first diagnosed his hct was at 9. He is
currently on
a very high dose of Pred & a chemo drug called
Chlorambucil. We are
getting ready to take him off the chemo drug & start
cyclosporin &
once again try to slowly reduce his pred. We did interferon
& LTCI
injections. He test negative now for FeLV. There is always
a 3-4 week
lag time before you start to see the increase in the
Hematocrit with
Pred. We have been going through this since Sept. 2008.

Hello all;
Casper is my symptomatic cat that became positive
because I mixed my
positives and negatives. I wondered if somehow I
had missed his
vaccinataion last year. I asked the vet to
double check and as I
thought he was not even due for his next vaccination
until April.
Anyway, he is now anemic and we are trying to deal
with that. He
has been getting Prednosolone and Doxycycline for
about a week and a
half without improvement. His count was 19 when
he was tested two
weeks ago. I took him today for a PCV and don't
have the results
yet. He also got an iron shot. I asked about
Epogen. My vet calls
it Arithro proeatin (I know I botched the spelling of
that.) He is
also looking into Interferon. Has anyone had
experience with these
with an anemic positive cat?
Now that my decision to mix has make Casper become
positive I want
to do whatever I can for him.
