Re: new from europe (arthritis and vetoryl?) - Flynn has passed
So pleased to hear that Ian is feeling better today, and I hope he continues to improve so Henry and I can join his virtual 14th birthday celebrations :)
So sorry to hear about Redd tho Leslie - I really hope he's feeling much better tomorrow.
Re: new from europe (arthritis and vetoryl?) - Flynn has passed
ian is doing ok. still drinking more and wanting to go out every 3 hours or so.
he was very hyper after his vet visit. lots of stress and cortisol rising , he was like molly muffin after an acth test...............
day 2 on 30 mg of vetoryl, drinking less, but still more than a month ago.
@sharlene, is molly drinking more those 48 hours after the test?
Re: new from europe (arthritis and vetoryl?) - Flynn has passed
Iris, molly is everything more after the ACTH. More water, more food begging, more hyper, more, more more.
She usually calms down after 48 hours or so.
Give it some time on the 30mg of vetroyl. It can go down for even an month on an increased dose..
Re: new from europe (arthritis and vetoryl?) - Flynn has passed
well ian was the same, i have never seen him like this before.
i think his cortisol was already rising the last few weeks, and the stressfull vet visit did the rest.
it is now 48 hours later and he slept a lot today.
i know now what you are going through with molly.......i am tired too.
Re: new from europe (arthritis and vetoryl?) - Flynn has passed
Bless your heart. I hope you and Ian both can get some rest today. His digestive system settled down? Redd is doing better but is convinced he is starving with his smaller meals the last few days! :D
Re: new from europe (arthritis and vetoryl?) - Flynn has passed
his digestive system was ok the next day, but he is still drinking a lot of water and wanting to go out every 2-4 hours. not normal for him.
pee in the house every morning...............
but he is doing fine otherwise...?????? weird.
@redd, i will send you a big steak for ian's birthday!
Re: new from europe (arthritis and vetoryl?) - Flynn has passed
Hoping that the water intake will decrease and the peeing in the house subside as he gets back to some sort of normal.
hugs
Re: new from europe (arthritis and vetoryl?) - Flynn has passed
i hope so too. i will give it some more days and then back for blood work. maybe kidneys, but he is not loosing weight or showing any other symptom but drinking a lot.
he isn't showing any signs of an uti. he never had one. no dementia at all.
just the drinking part.
Re: new from europe (arthritis and vetoryl?) - Flynn has passed
