My baby Tsubomi (felk) is in trouble - please help!

[Hideyo Yamamoto]

Well  - I talked to three vets and they feel that I am doing everything I can for her right now and they don’t have any other suggestions and she gets really stressed out and I am not wanting to put her through --- epogen, interferon, and steroid, lasix – they have been all suggested by at least one of them – but her being felk – they are basically attributing  her symptoms to the illness and they are very skeptical – so in a way, I am on my own –it’s sort of up to me to try what I thnk it will help her – though I know that she is losing blood or have perhaps now fluid in heart as she has a hard time breathing after she moves around ---they took exray on her Friday though they did not see any fluid in her chest , but a little in her tummy (not so much) and that’s why my vet suggested lasix – I am not again wanting her to go through the stress of ultrasound as they may not find anything for sure anyway – (and they did not see any mass through extray) – I feel that she is losing blood as she seems pale and as I understand there is NOTHING I can do about it – except I try epogen to see if it works for her.. I will see if I can get acemannan –as it was on hold by the government a couple of months ago ---     On Oct 6, 2006, at 10:21 PM, Hideyo Yamamoto wrote:   Hi, one of my felk babies is in a serious trouble and I need your help -   She was fine until very recently but noticed that something was wrong definitely this morning just the way she as sitting.. so I took her to the vet, and her PCV was 9.6 and took her to the emergency clinic and s had a traqnsfusion, she was fine right after the transfusion, now she is running fever of 106.8.. I am assuming that it is reaction from transfusion. Prior to the transfusion, she vomited very think blood and tons of it.. and now I saw tons of blood came from stool.. and I am very scared.. all the blood work was normal except high (50,000 range of WBC) - it could be cancer or it could be some type of infection.. she is on clavmox and I just gave her predisolone --- Any insights are appreciated.. the vets are not really sure what's directly causing it and I really didi not want her to continue to be checked out -I was thinking of giving her epogen though her kidney is fine, I thought it migh help anemia or at least it own't hurt? Also I was going to start on interferon tomorrow.. please any insight is appreciated - she is just a sweet girl,, and I wanted to do everything I can to make her feel better.
