I should have just put the whole information to begin with sorry.
He is currently taking Antirobe (antibiotic) for gingivitis following his
dental op - has about a week of these left.
2.5mg of Fortekor for heart Murmer - Daily
Has had 5 injections of Feline Omega Interferon - starts the next 5 on
Wednesday.
Has had thyroid (T4), liver and kidney function tests - normal but protein
levels were slightly raised - vet said that was normal due to his inflamation
etc.
Has been tested for Calicivirus-isolation, Herpesvirus and FeLV - FeLV
negative, no result yet on herpes and from what I gather he most likely has
calici.
I don't think he is fit to undergo anymore anaesthesia - he needs as little
stress as possible
He has wasted somewhat around his spine don't know how long he has been
like that for and his coat is not in great condition.
In the four weeks I've had him - he has had ears syringed, scale and polish
and 3 teeth extracted and gingivitis treatment as listed above. He showed
mild seizure like activity in that he would stop with his jaw open for a
few seconds about every 5 days. Had right and left occular discharge, nasal
discharge, drooling, sneezing (occasionally sneezing blood), wheezing, coughing,
breathing difficulty (this is now so much better) still sneezing occasionally
but breathing musch better.
Over a week ago he swayed and then became ataxic. Sunday
stronghold/revolution spot on given - 14hrs laters paddling in seizure followed
by momentary ataxia - same occured 12-13 hrs later. 2 days later pupils dilated
with blindness and had involuntary motor control seizure about 3-4 mins long -
seemed to regain sight a little later. Was quiet afterwards as expected. Day
later his pupils dilated and took about 18hrs to respond to light again - but
still appears partially blind.
Is eating ok and is excited when he gets his chicken pieces
as treats.
gets to the toilet ok although his stools have been loose they are a little
firmer now.
Hope this helps
