I will go to the health food store tomorrow to see if I can find the Rutin! When we began with Murphy's anemia crash on 7/24 his RBC was 3.5, HGB 5.1, HCT 22 On 8/28 his RBC was 4.8, HGB 12.5, HCT was 33.9 I really think the combo of doxycycline (in case there was any parasites or other bacterial secondary junk) cyproheptadine because he had been sneezy and it helped with his appetite-the iron caps to help the anemia. The Procrit was only 21 units in an insulin syringe-easy to give at home sub q 3x a week. He had quit eating and drinking for a few days and I was using a syringe to feed him-he had lost almost 2 pounds-from 12 lbs to 10-today he was back up to 10 lbs 13 oz. I just feel like we crossed a big hurdle just to hit a brick wall. I am tired of losing my babies and crying. Whoda thunk it-I didn't even have a cat at all for over a decade before we trapped the feral babies-and I'd take a bullet for these guys-there has been so much loss, so quickly. This whole group has been on the same path with our sweet innocents. _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org
