Well, that should be the first step in any FIP diagnosis. I really find it completely unfathomable that they didn't do a Corona titer when they suspected FIP. True, if it's positive, it could still be anything, but if it's negative, that completely eliminates the possibility of FIP, and allows you to move in another direction towards the true cause of the illness.
They did aspirate fluid, though, right? And it was definitely in the abdomen and NOT in the chest cavity, right? Didn't you say it was clear, and not straw colored like FIP usually is, or was that someone else's cat? I'm sorry I was gone for 2 days.. I had family things I had to do. I'm glad Lucy is hanging in there!
