Neil, I have not had this happen, but feel this is a good thing. So many vets just chalk up illnesses to FeLV if a cat tests positive (and many times, the tests can be wrong), and then give up on treating the actual illness because they have such a negative view of FeLV. Now you guys can focus on the anemia without worrying about the FeLV. My Cricket got really sick one day (his temp. way sky high) and when I took him into the vet, he tested positive for FeLV and the vet pretty much wrote him off and stopped trying to do something for him. Thank God I listened to my gut feeling that they weren't caring for him correctly and took off work to pick him up and care for him myself. So for the next 3-4 days, I gave him antibiotics (I think amox), fluids every hour, and also had to force feed him. He bounced back and was great for two years after that, so I strongly believe that his illness was from an infection he got from an injury to his feet, and had nothing to do with the FeLV. Had I left it up to the doc, I wouldn't have had that two years with him.
I hope that her marrow results come back negative also for cancer, and that you guys can beat this thing. Please keep us posted. Praying for Anastasia... :) Wendy __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
