My boy Max has had 3 ultrasounds in a year and I've been told by the surgeon he believes it's IBD and doesn't recommend a biopsy. We have tried pred, tylosin,metronidazole and now a few days on kittybiome gut restore. He's getting worse it seems. Now he's hiding intermittently and ravenous all the time. No energy. We've done allergy testing and diet changes and now we're doing the ibdkitty homemade meals. Also weekly b12 cerenia as needed.. I'm unable to find a solution. I believe I'm going to schedule his biopsy today. Not sure if it should just be endoscopic or complete? It's 4800 for complete and 3200 endoscopic. And how much do I put him through? I'm so sad. Just like everyone here probably feels about their cat...I love him! I'm not finding many long term ibd kitty success stories. Hoping someone can tell me this is normal and he will be fine. My heart is breaking. He's been through so much. Flutd and seizures both now are managed with accupunture and homeopathics. Last June he was diagnosed with pancreatitis and its been a year of cycling symptoms that just keep coming.. in the last 3 weeks. No good days.
