Hi Tonya,
Fred gets, *Nutrived* which is a liquid for his slight anemia, he
gets a potassium supplement (*potassium gluconate powder* that I put in
capsules, he gets 4 a day) and he gets *phosphorus binders* because his
phosphorus was too high, we've got it down again and he gets *Marrow
Plus* (this is for anemia and energy, not sure if this is really doing
much, his HCT has stayed at 28%, just low for months so it may be
helping) and *amlodipine* and *benazipril* for high blood pressure. He
just had his last blood work a week ago and all his number were very
good, there has been a big improvement. We started him on benazapril
in addition to his amlodipine for high blood pressure and his numbers
shot up. They are almost normal again and benazapril is known to make
the numbers go higher initially when started. He's also been on an
antibiotics and eye goop for a urinary tract infection and conguntivitis
in his eye this last week. I took him in last week because I could tell
he wasn't feeling well. We go in this morning to check on those two
things and recheck his blood pressure, forgot last week.
My vet is thrilled that his numbers have come down so much. He also
gets 150ml of fluid daily. Fred gets pills 5 or 6 times a day and we
have it down to a routine now, he is pretty good about it. He doesn't
love it but he knows it is going to happen so he just lets me do it, I
think he realizes he feels better too, especially after his fluids.
Do you have blood work you can send me for your possible CRF kitty?
