Sherri I also should have mentioned the very important requirement that the vet should put Bogie on Doxycycline as well. I always forget this. I forget because my Zander was originally on Doxycycline and it was not helping, and I don't think it can on its own, so I always forget the vital role

Hi Sherri Yes, I do see something positive. As I mentioned in my previous email, the reticulocyte count ("retic") is a count showing immature red cells. Normally, red cells are not pushed out of the bone marrow into the general circulation of the blood, until they are mature, though a small

Thanks Ardy. We had Bogeys first blood test after 7 days and her HCT was only still at 15.4. Slight increase. She is pretty functional at this level. Still sleeping a lot. But eats, goes up and down stairs, bats at the dogs. The vet didn¹t seem surprised that it hadn¹t gone up more. It hadn¹t gone
