Quick question, if you don' mind my asking. Our cat, Carleton, was diagnosed with H-T in March. I have been giving him the transdermal form of Methimazole but recently scheduled him for I-131 treatment in Nov. Our vet who is a feline only specialist has done all his bloodwork and UA. She said he is an excellent candidate for the I-131. He will have scintigraphy at the diagnostic and imaging specialty center I chose prior to his injections. But after reading your thread and above posts I was unsure if your cat, Jack, already had CKD as well as H-T or if he developed the CKD after having the I-131 radioactive iodine treatment. It sounds like he already had it which is why the I-131 uncovered it, is that correct? I'm sorry if I misinterpreted your post but would appreciate your reply since I want to do what's best for Carleton but worried at the same time. Thank you for your help and best wishes to Jack.He's already a month post i131 treatment. Which uncovered his kidney deficiency.
