Oops guys I was trying to look up spelling of hepatic and hit send. I will complete the email here.
That cat was Pumpkin, Junior had already been treated for anemia and lethargy. Pumkinwas hiding symptoms so I was not aware how sick he was. Pumpkin crashed at the vets office and I could not bear to put him though more. Meanwhile I had Junior who although appeared better I was very concerned about Pumpkin dying from anemia. I took Junior back to the vet he had a fever of 106.5. They did fluids an asked to do e felv test. I ok'd he was negative 5 months Oralie. This time positive. I am in panic mode bc I have 10 cats still and like yourself little money to spend. I decided not to euthanize Junior, but to see what I could do and I found this group. Juniors anaemia did get better he was treated with Baytril a strong antibiotic. I cannot remember how long but maybe 10 days to 2 weeks. I had all the cats tested after a lot of work. I had two other positives and both are now dead one euthanized and the other died suddenly at home. He never had any of the usual symptoms. I am not saying this to scare you. I think you can treat for hemobartonella and do the immunoregulin fairly inexpensively. Treat any infections that come along aggressively and get him on immune boosters. This is basically what I did with Junior and it is now almost 1 year form DX. I am not a rich person but this is doable. Good luck, my prayers are with you.
