Hi Belinda,
Due to his Kidney readings being Ok my vet seems to think that the epogen
or Aranesp, will not help in this case, also remember he is FELV positive.
at the beginning his kidneys where not so good on the readings , but we
believe this was due to his bad mouth infecting the kidneys
Thank you
will try again, also I now have a web
site which was given to me.for the l-lysine, I forgot to say that he is
FELV but his Kidneys are OK. He is also on the immuno-regulin or know over
here as interferon (Virbagen Omega) feline version with less side affects, He
has been on it for 12
I'm writing about yet another cat in Rochester, NY
that has been diagnosed with leukemia. The woman
contacted me a few months ago to see if I could find a
home but there was no reason she shouldn't keep the
cat. I explained to her that this is not a death
sentence and that she shouldn't get rid
I'm so sorry Susan. That is so sad. Especially about Mr. Kitty. :( I know we're supposed to love everyone. But I seriously question how someone who does not love animals can love people..Not meant to start a debate or anything. I feel the same way about people who hunt and eat
Susan,I only used it with one cat and that's when she was trying to throw a very bad uri and herpes. Both eyes were swollen, and she had to be put on viroptic for that as well.I pulled her through and she was good for at least 6 more years. When I did lose her it was to another uri.If
Susan,I have heard of people using it sub -q. If the cat is cooperative though I would go iv. That is a more proven protocol.tSusan Loesch [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Wow, it would be great to find out that I can give the IR subQ.cindy reasoner [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The vet fixed the
was it acemannan?cindy reasoner [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The vet fixed the shots for me and gave me enough for2 weeks. She doesn't call it immuno-regulin but Ican't think of the name of it but when I mentionedimmuno-regulin she said that it was the same thing. Ican look tonight and tell you
Immuno-regulin is NOT the same thing as interferon omega (Virbagen Omega).
They are completely different medicines, not in any way related. I recommend
trying the Immuno-regulin. There are articles about it on this group's web page.
It is an IV shot. You can order it without prescription
I cannot take in another cat at this time, unfortunately. Plus I am in Georgia. But please widely crosspost this situation. Most of us on this list have felv positive cats that live with our felv negative cats.Many people are now willing to mix cats because the vaccine may not be 100%
I don't recall dosage as it was YEARS ago, but 1 mL sounds right. My cat had no adverse reactions that I know of, but she was very sick already at the time we started the treatments, so I may not have known.Her worst adverse reaction was fear from going to the vet. :(tonya[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hi Sandra,
My Bailey is FeLV+ and is anemic, his kidney's are perfect in fact
all of his organs are in great shape.
His anemia is due directly to the FeLV virus replicating in the bone
marrow, and preventing the bone marrow from producing the red cells. He
is diagnosed with
I just took Jake into the vet because he has been acting not himself lately. Lethargic, not eating as much, not as active, etc. And I also saw him eating his littler. I had a feeling he was going to be anemic and I am sad to say I was right. I have no expereince whatsoever to this so I am all new.
Marrisa,
Bloodwork will tell you alot, is his anemia regenerative or non
regenerative, what are his kidney values, does he have hemobartonella, a
full CBC would tell you all of that? Once you know those answers then
you can figure out what comes next. With his count that low though you
Marissa,I am so sorry. I haven't dealt with the anemia myself yet, but a lot of list members have. It's really a decision you have to make for yourself if you want to treat it aggressively or not. A lot depends on Jake and what you feel his quality of life is/will be with the treatment.I
Amy,I'm so sorry for your loss. I remember someone else's cat having difficulty with his legs, but I don't recall who it was. Hopefully they can answer some of your questions. Pixie will wait for you at the bridge.tonyaAmy Wilkins [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all. I haven't been too active
How is Pekoe?tonya
My sympathies to you with Pixie's
loss. You did the right thing for her to ease her suffering and send her
to healthy land at the Bridge. Bless her heart, such a tragedy for one so
young. I have lost three cats with a saddle clot; whether it was that or
something else, the heart aches as
Dexamethasone, Epogen, Immuno-regulin, doxicycline, and a
transfusion. Some cats on the list have gone almost that low, though not
sure that low, and bounced back from combinations of these.
