Perhaps I have missed something. Have they transfused her, Severe anemia makes the very weak and not eat. When my dog had autoimmune mediated anemia her refusal to eat was the first indication, Epogen is possible depending upon the type of anemia, but to me getting the immediate improvement in crit is basic, then the rest can follow, Maybe I am behind but transufing is not very invasive and gives immediate relief and buys time,

I don't know if she is comfortable. When she is feverish, she definitely isn't. At other times it is hard to tell if she is just weak or also nauseous or painful somewhere. The oncologist said he does not think she has any pain. Maybe it is just fatigue from the anemia and the fevers. She is not very interested in food. She would not eat all morning and at this point has eaten probably less than a meal's worth of EVO dry. I tried liver shake and even fancy feast, knowing the fancy feast could wreck her intestines due to her IBD. But she did not want them at all. The EVO tends to bother her intestines too, but it is all she will eat on her own and I hate to syringe her if I can get her to eat something. I may ask Gray to go get some turkey deli slices. Anyway, I would not say she is super comfortable. But maybe she is just weak and has no appetite. I have to say, I don't have any appetite at this point either.
