The yellow discolouration takes a bit of time to ebb away. The more important
indicator of how she is doing is that she is more steady on her feet and has an
interest in eating. She has clearly improved, so don’t let the yellow colour
concern you. It should fade away on its own.

Amani,
I noticed the glucose right away. I had a diabetic dog that required insulin
twice a day and so that number stuck out. I believe these tests were before
the IV. I didn’t look at the bag closely that they were giving her but I
think it was Dextrose. I will ask him about that tomorrow. With

The results aren’t that bad at all. I have seen Total Billirubins (TBili) in
the thousands and the babies/humans and animals survived. The liver enzymes are
barely budged. They are wee bit up but again, I have seen them in the
thousands with no effect on the cats. There may have been a
She was really out of it earlier today. Couldn’t stand on her own. Very
confused. Dr told me once a cat goes yellow like that they don’t normally
survive. The tech that was in there with me today said she couldn’t believe
the test results weren’t worse than the were. Said the TBIL was the bad

Good to hear there has been an improvement. I wanted to say that to you in my
previous email, because I was surprised you were saying you thought she
wouldn’t recover. Usually, there is a pretty rapid turn-around as the bilirubin
and enzymes drop. It is very good news that she is eating
Yes…here are her comparison results. I just visited with her and she appears
better this evening. She seemed less out of it. Walking better. Ate a
little. Even the guy who cleans the ICU there said he saw much improvement.
Hoping and praying. Amani they gave me two sheets of test results this
That is very strange indeed. Usually, any jaundice develops rather slowly. Your
description leaves me confused. Have they tested her again to see what the
current values are?
I don’t understand the numbers you have posted, by the way. Perhaps they are in
different units than what I am familiar
Hi Amani. She is hospitalized. I am going up to see her again as soon as I
get out of here. She hasn't had the Winstrol now since Sunday at noon. The
jaundice was sudden. She was wobbly Sunday night but still eating. I made
an appointment for her right away but I couldn't get in for 5 hours. I
The jaundice is probably a side effect of the Winstrol. Is she still on it? If
so, discontinue. You don’t need it right now anyway with her blood counts doing
so well. From what I saw in my cats, any of them whose liver enzymes increased,
would show a quick and steady drop of the enzymes once
I just wanted you all to know that my cat Bogey made an unbelievable
recovery in her counts in the last 6 weeks, only to become jaundice
suddenly yesterday and is not doing well at all.
Her platelets had jumped to 112 from the lower 20s. Her RBC was up to 4.9
and it had been half of that. The
