Good vibes and prayers for both you and Lucy. Is the tapering of the
Pred the only thing that you can point to that caused her relapse? She
relapsed at 2.5mg, or she was doing fine until you tried lowering it
still further?

Lucy was doing great recovering from her last IBD relapse, and I had
just tapered down to 2.5 mg/day (started at 12.5 and reduced by 1.25
per week). And then she relapsed again. Liquid diarrhea and little
interest in food. Otherwise she is acting fine this time, knock on
wood. I put her back up to 10 mg/day of pred and am giving her some
homeopathic remedies. Please send her prayers, good thoughts, etc.
Her ibd definitely seems to be worsening, with more relapses that take
longer to get better. I always worry a bit that it is lymphoma, given
her FeLV, though I am now getting used to the up and down of ibd so am
more concerned/depressed than panicked.
Thanks,
