Thank you so much, Nina!!! . I will get on
it.First I need to see if there are any unwanted interactions with anything I
give him. Poor Sam-so many, many needle sticks over the years. Wish you
could have a setup like a shunt or port as we have for people........... I
can do SC IV IM injections on people ( even family) without
batting an eye- But my kitty babies?? No, no, no.

Procrit is used to boost red blood cell production, so if that were
helping maybe the IR would too. I know there has been success with anemia
using it. Michelle can tell you more, and others have posted sites about
it. I'm sure you can Google it and come up with some stuff. From
what I understand about it, (I haven't used it, but I did order some from
Revival), it is a bacteria that is administered IV, (Cindy and Smokey on the
list used it subq with good results), that helps the body by launching an attack
against it and consequently boosting the immune system to fight whatever else
might be going on. I know one of the side effect warnings include temp
fever spike. I think Michelle said she's given it to two or three of her
kitties and only one had the problem with fever. Another member, Kerry
Roach had gotten it to try for her kitty, Bandy, but if she's reported back on
it, I haven't seen her post. Here's the link to order: http://www.revivalanimal.com/product.asp?pn=31-020&ss=immunoregulin
It's also called EqStim, (marketed for use in horses), but it's the same
med. If after discussing it with your vet, you think it might help, you
can order it direct without a prescription. They can overnight it to you
too.
Blessings,
Nina

Thank you, Nina! Have no idea what did it.no undue
stress, etc. I had stopped the procrit a year ago since we
figured his marrow was making RBCs.
Please tell me more about immuno-regulin....and I will
read up on it. It has a diabetic sound to it! (?????)
