After contacting animalbiome they replied and recommended waiting until Max has stabilized. I did send off the sample for testing and should have results in another week or 2.
We started budesonide last week. He had a bad reaction to the prednisalone. Now the vet doubled the dose this week. .5 to 1 ml 1 x daily. He seems mildly better but so tired. He vomited hairball one day and next day all his food. Today was a big mushy semi formed poo. But he's not worse. About same as pre budesonide.
I just checked his weight and he's lost another .4 -.6 lbs last month bringing him down 1 lb over 3 or 4 months
I'm wondering what other ibd kitty parents have experienced in a 3 month period?
My vet says when he dips another lb then we'll try chloabucil.
I'm looking for others experience in terms of time till budesonide began to make a noticeable longer lasting improvement? I know it's different for everyone just trying to have a comparison or hope.
I've done most of the ibdkitties website recommendations and incorporated advice I've gotten here. Thank you for listening to an exhausted kitty mom. This is so hard on him and that makes it hard for me. Not knowing is the worst
