I wanted to ask too about this. My now 17-year-old (back then 15-year-old) had a lot of symptoms in the onset of his VIF diagnosis at the end on 2019. One of the symptoms was incoordination. The vet at the time insisted it was pain so he gave it (Meloxicam first and later) gabapentin. I kept...

I'm so sorry to hear that. Recently, mine started walking funny - well, funnier than normal for him - and when the vet said it was from the pain, the full weight of those words hit me like a ton of bricks. It's probably not the brightest idea to follow my example because I'm as if not more...

I'd normally check other threads first but I don't seem to be able to do word searches right now for some reason, so... I guess I'll do my own thread. Background It's long so here's the short version: VIF+ 16-year-old rescue, diagnosed after some neurological (woobliness, falling, twitching)...

Pardon my intrusion, I need to ask you something about this case: does she have any weird reactions post sedatives (or even analgesics)? Mine can walk, but he has woobliness that increase with some medication: particularly pain medication - and post sedatives (after MRIs and tooth-removal...

Not sure I should say anything this late into the narration, but I wanted to let you know I know how you feel. When my completely-healthy 18-year-old developped melanoma, I spent those 5 months not sleeping (or sleeping in chunks of 2 to 3 hours). I'm an amnesiac, but even for my standards it...

Hey. I'm so sorry. From the lack of further posts i'm guessing it's not good news. I was really hoping this had a happy ending. Not only for you and your cats, I admit: mine has had symptoms that in a lot of ways match yours (minus the rolled back eyes). Recently, I made posts about this and it...

Hey there. Any updates? I'm sorry I can't suggest mucho because I don't have any experience with diabetes. I have been following other people advise over mine's tumbling and it looks like it was cryptococus (a fungi)

I'm so sorry to hear. Sending you hugs, even if it's five years later

UPDATE: I'm going to copy-paste what I posted in silent meowlook thread: silent meowlook, hello again. I wanted to drop by to let you know, you probably saved my cat's life. Yesterday, I finally got the test results for cryptococosis (I insisted we did that test earlier but other things took...

silent meowlook, hello again. I wanted to drop by to let you know, you probably saved my cat's life. Yesterday, I finally got the test results for cryptococosis (I insisted we did that test earlier but other things took priority for the vets), and he tested positive. So all this time that I've...

Hey, yeah, sorry about rambling on your thread. And yes, his pressure was good (we checked that Saturday, in the midst of his episode.) Update: I'm starting to believe the reason he got better was a product called Neoblue that I started giving him in drops the day before the recovery. Neoblue...

Sorry for worrying you, I actually consulted a vet nutricionist and she suggested the lavander. Tea, not essential oils. Green tea and chamomille are also usually prescribed. Quadriderm was also okayed by my regular vet, who is a cat specialist. She was the one who instructed me to put it in...

@WMM201 Thanks! Those are good suggestions. I mentioned Gremlin was FIV+, so we do panels regularly. I know his thyriod and pressure is good, and no diabetes. And, well, his white blood cells are all over the place actually. But it's been a year since we last checked minerals. I'll ask...

Sorry, just to answer this in more detail: - Thank you so much, @silent meowlook! That is exactly the type of suggestions I was looking for! ^___^ As you can see, both were added to the list to ask the vet about. You have no idea how much gratitude I feel right now, thank you. - @Furballsmom...

These are my main suspects, so far: - listeria - meningococo - estreptococo pneumoniae - cryptococo (fungi) - Neorickettsia Helminthoeca - ciguatera In case of digestive system related illness causing neurological reactions: - campylobacter, - e coli, - coccidia Does anybody has any...
