Oh Kerry! What the h--l is going on with Bandy's temp?! I'm sorry the
internist is so far away. If they were closer, I'd suggest camping out
in their lobby until they see you! I wish I had more advice about what
to do for Bandy. Is he on a full dose of Dox now? I'm praying for answers,
Nina

Hi,
Bandy didn't seem to feel too good today...His temp was up to 104.2
and he did go almost 5 days without it going up to that...He did
receive another dex inj. but it is cut down to 1/4cc now..hopefully to
get him thru the weekend...he is eating and drinking alot...Bowels and
kidneys are working fine...He doesn't have any eye or nose
discharge..He never has..
I think we are going to get an appt. next week to an internal med
specialist that I have used in the past...It is about 120 miles away
and he won't like the ride, but he needs some answers because this
temp thing could go on and on...
Thank you Julie and Michelle for your replies...
I did ask about the metacam and immuno-regulin...I have read about the
metacam and it seems to be more for dogs and not so good for
cats...Have you used it in your kitties before without any side
effects? Also, the immuno-regulin, my vet has but she said she had
never had very good result with it...I think it might be a good thing
though..except for the temporary rise in the temp...I do hope we can
get into the spec. next week..or asap...
I will check more on the lysine though, too...I think I am going to
add some Vit. C tonight and maybe some CO Q10....
Anyway, any other suggestions would be appreciated...A good thing is
that he has gained 1 lb 71/2 oz. since this all started in middle of
June...I think that is a good jump for a small kitty. I hope I can get
another 1 lb on him...
I do hope your Tator Tot and Bramble are doing better today...
We will be thinking about you.
Kerry and Bandy
