That’s really funny that you say he started making his own cels again because that’s what’s happened with Tosie. She was diagnosed with chronic nonregenerative anemia with no known cause. Up until recently we had accepted she would always be nonregenerative. Until the last few tests began to...
Well, there definitely was not a large amount of abnormal lymphocytes present which is nice at least. It was a very small amount. Tosie’s only real symptom is the anemia.
Our vet did look back at the ultrasound from last month where they checked her kidneys and other abdominal organs. There...
Update:
We spoke to the vet. She let us know that unfortunately Tosie’s HCT dropped 3% from the blood test last month. But she also told us that the abnormal lymphocytes they found were few. It was not a large population, but they were concerned about their presence at all which is why they...
I’m so sorry to hear that your cat has been diagnosed with SCL, but I’m very glad to know that not much has changed for her! I really hope it stays that way and that she lives a long, happy life with you🩷
She did have a couple days to maybe a week of diarrhea about 6 months ago while on her steroids for anemia. And she also had weight loss during the time we were trying to discover the anemia. Our vets told us that often cats with anemia, especially anemia as severe as Tosie’s, lose weight due to...
Our vet will be calling tomorrow to discuss Tosie’s options. I can post another update then, assuming I don’t get terrible news. In which case I might be a little slower on the updates.
Her previous health problems started last summer when she developed severe, chronic anemia seemingly out of...
I forgot to add that, yes, her ultrasounds have all been completely normal. She has no problems with diarrhea or constipation except for a short bout of diarrhea around the 3month mark of her anemia treatment. We were given probiotics for her and the GI issues went away and haven’t come back...
Tosie’s anemia was originally classified as non-regenerative, however the past two blood panels have shown regeneration again. In fact, the regeneration has grown with each blood test. Her vet has been stumped to say the least. Her past hematocrit values since the big drop have been hovering...
We do plan to fight it, so long as she won’t suffer. Especially if it’s small cell lymphoma, which we are hoping for at this point since it’s the most treatable option. We’re coming to terms with the fact that there is pretty much a 0% chance this isn’t cancer. I can’t find a single thing...
I posted earlier this year about my cat, Tosie and her sudden anemia with no known cause.
Well, she responded well to steroid therapy for 6 months until her hematocrit suddenly tanked again. We all assumed the cause was tapering off her steroids too quickly. It wasn’t.
Her internal medicine...
Whaaaat!! I actually had no idea that anti-nausea pills could cause inappetence! How ironic is that???😅
im very pleased with her poops at least! No diarrhea since Tuesday, only normal poos! Her vet has advised us to bring her back in on Monday if she hasn’t had some improvement with the food...
Tosie ate all of her food yesterday with no treats. It did take her a very long time to finish her meals though. At least 20-30 minutes for one serving of food when normally it would take her 1. This morning she’s being picky again, but I did notice that last night her belly was gurgling a lot...
Update!
Tosie ate her entire serving of breakfast today without any treats!!! She also pooped last night before bed and it was completely normal!! She was also playing like a fiend yesterday. I would say she played more yesterday than she has since the tummy troubles started. Hopefully things...
I really hope so too. She’s been playing her mouse today, watching birds from the windows and galloping around the house like a tiny horse lol it’s just her appetite that seems to be affected
We’ve tried Sheba lickable treats for her I’m the past but she wouldn’t go near them. :( I don’t think I have access to the Delectables brand in my country (I’m outside the US), the only ones I’ve been able to find so far are the Sheba brand 😭
