My cat has for the second time been diagnosed with eosinophilic granuloma. The vet cleaned his teeth and found it again under his tongue. It was biopsied and we are waiting for a confirmation on the diagnosis. If it is this he will be treated with steroids. My vet says this is an allergy...

...steroids will be needed as those are what is helping her rather than the food. I did a search on this site for threads about EG and thought you might be interested in looking through them while wait for others to respond directly. Search Results for Query: Eosinophilic Granuloma | TheCatSite

I had a kitty who was prone to ulcers under her tongue, but was never diagnosed with eosinophilic granuloma. We gave her steroids and pain meds. The vet told us that stress was a contributing factor.

It looks like it could possibly be an eosinophilic granuloma. I would get your kitty to the vet for a check up. One form of eosinophilic granuloma is sometimes referred to as a rodent ulcer (nothing to do with rodents). Here is an article about condition, which is very much treatable...

...It is very treatable but might recur if the cause isn't determined. Here is an article (see link belwo) on the family of eosinophilic granuloma complex skin disorders, including the indolent ulcer. If your sister uses plastic bowls for food and water, have her replace them with stainless...

My little Maude went in for a teeth cleaning late last year and they found this right at the back of her tongue. It was quite large and was the cause of her rather bad breath as it turns out. Since then we have swapped her to a hypoallergenic diet and she has had two steroid injections over I...

...for answers. The last vet visit, a bright red spot was seen in her throat, near her epiglottis. Vet told me it was either Eosinophilic Granuloma or carcinoma. Symptoms. These have come and gone during the last 18-24 months, all waved off by the various vets seen. They never resolved...

I will bring her tomorrow to the vet. However, I saw that eosinophilic granuloma is not associated with lymph nodes swelling. Let's see. Thank you!!

Hi. I agree with the above, and these insects you have could be another trigger. This is likely a form of Eosinophilic granuloma complex, which includes 'rodent' or indolent ulcers, and they can be due to insects (especially fleas), dietary and environmental allergies, infectious agents, and...

Hello! Thank you so much for your response. Has been to the vet - you’re bang on! Kitty has had an injection and is now going to be on the mend. Thank you again :)

Hello, Is there possibly a new miracle cure for EGC? My cat Misty suffers badly from these. In addition to the rodent ulcers on her lip, she recently had a nasty lesion on her leg (still wearing a cone to stop her from licking). Now she has something on her ear. The cortisone injections help...

She needs to go to the vet. It looks like rodent ulcers (not caused by rodents), also called eosinophilic granuloma. They can be very painful. The vet can also treat for fleas.

Years ago, Teddy Bear used to get frequent episodes of eosinophilic granuloma. The vet always treated it with steroids. Through trial and error, I discovered that she was allergic to the teaspoon of milk I was giving her every day. Once I stopped that, much to Teddy’s displeasure, she never got...

9 Hi thanks for this response! They tried doxycycline but it was only 3 days I believe. He was also resisting it so much (kept coughing it up) that the vet said to let it go. This was earlier in the journey before the ct scan and diagnosis. Is this only in pill form? Did your cat have similar...

Hi there. I'll go look at your original post better but I saw the one said it was a granuloma found in the nose nostil (eosinophilic granuloma) from what I understand eosinophilic granuloma encompasses a family of things. Have they looked at / tried doxycycline? I know it's the go to for pillow...

...How long since the first one? And, the location? The very best in-depth coverage I had found was this one: Eosinophilic Granuloma Complex in Cats. That required slow, digesting reading.....I found it interesting that it sometimes resembles certain cancers (and can morph into them). Best...

Had her vet appointment today, they said it looks like it’s fine and to keep an eye on it, said its probably a pimple

...the only thing that I am unsure when looking at your pic. The most common condition is what is known as an indolent ulcer (eosinophilic granuloma) and can be caused by using plastic or porous material dishes/bowls for food and water. No matter how much you clean these bowls, they still...

Eosinophilic Granuloma Complex

Is that on the kitten's lip? They are usually part of the eosinophilic granuloma complex family - specifically an indolent ulcer. They are often brought on by some allergic reaction, and sometimes it can be as simple as getting rid of plastic dishes/bowls that tend to harbor bacteria due to the...
