Ardy,
She has been on the prednisolone since August 1. The Stanzolol about 2
weeks
after that. Today was first day of Doxy. Thanks for the well wishes.
I think we are going to need them.

Can I ask how long she has been on the Stanozolol? And you just
started the Prednisolone and Doxy, correct? My best wishes to Bogey
to improve soon!!

Hi Sherri
Yes, some of the results are worse (especially the platelets) but the
retic count is actually up a bit. I hope that adding the Doxycycline
might help.
The haematocrit and red cells are down, but nowhere as low as I have
seen them in cats with FeLV, so there is a lot of cushion still
there. The best piece of news is that she is eating and drinking and
gaining
weight.

Just a bit of information regarding Bogey?s last lab results. She had
been sleeping a lot and not as active so this really didn?t surprise
me.
Everything has taken a down turn.
Range 26-Oct 30-Sep
RBC 6.54 12.2 2.54 2.9
HCT 30.3 52.3 14.8 17.9
HGB 9.8 16.2 5.2 6.2
MCV 35.9 53.1 58.3 61.7
MCH 11.8 17.3 20.5 21.4
MCHC 28.1 35.8 35.1 34.6
RDW 15 27 24.5 25.2
RETIC 3 50 89.9 82.1
WBC 2.87 17.02 13.05 12.01
NEU 1.48 1.029 3.97 3.96
LYM 0.92 6.88 7.8 6.81
MONO 0.05 0.67 1.16 1.17
EOS 0.17 1.57 0.11 0.06
BASO 0.01 0.26 0.01 0.01
PLT 151 800 28 53
The only bit of good news is the doc did start her on Doxycycline
twice a day. So she is going to be on that and Prednisolone and
Stanzolol. I also give her Petinic twice a day and am going to add
Lysine. I hope that the Doxy isn?t arriving too late to help.
Bogey is not suffering. She is eating, drinking and gaining weight,
although just a little, playing once in awhile. She is hiding now
which she never did before. My heart hurts today.
Thanks for listening.
Sherri

It is an old wives' tale. It will not thin the blood.

Great ideas on the KFC, tuna and such. I will get some tomorrow for
her. I am trying to find something with not much salt as I was always
told that thins the blood. Is that an old wive's tale?

Sherri, half the battle is keeping her eating. As long as she is
eating, you are ahead of the curve. I really don't like the low
platelet count but nothing else in the bloodwork is very alarming
right now. Were there clots in the sample? Did they do a slide
count? See if your results have anything at the bottom about the
recheck they did for the low platelets.
Keep Bogey eating, as much as possible. Use things like tuna water
or tuna juice from tuna cans, to keep her hungry. Get Kentucky Fried
Chicken for her (without the covering!).
You are doing very well for your little girl. I'm glad your vet
isn't giving up, and neither should you or Bogey.
I'm crossing my fingers for you that the Doxycycline helps. Frankly,
though, he shouldn't have waited to get bad news. At least he is
willing to try it now.

Hi Amani. I did feel very happy that he agreed to the Doxy. Maybe
the fact that the current regiment was clearly becoming ineffective
made him think we needed to add something. He is going to look into
Interferon for her and I am going to research that this evening as I
have only seen it mentioned here and there. He isn't giving up and I
am awfully glad about that because I am nowhere near ready. I don't
think Bogey is ready either.
