Hi, My Smokey has been on equistim for about 2 months
now.  He had been tested for felv when I first got him
and it was negative but after about a month he started
getting fevers.  After alot of medications to get the
fever down only to have it go back up again the vet
decided to check for felv again.  This time it was
positive.  This vet didn't seem to be the best at
handling felv+ kitties so I changed vets.  The new vet
started him on the equistim.  The first week I believe
he got an injection for 4 or 5 days and now he gets 2
injections a week.  He gets them subq.  The vet lets
me give them to him at home.  He also goes to the vet
every 2 weeks to get an injection of Winstrol.  He has
been doing great.  He hasn't had a fever since we
started him on the equistim.  He is gaining weight and
has started playing now.  He has a great appetite.  I
hope this helps.
