My cat presented with vomiting a week ago and was quite sickly. My regular vet thought he had a bowel obstruction from a foreign body. I took him in for a second opinion and they think it is either very severe Inflammatory Bowel Disease or Small Cell Lymphoma based on the ultrasound study.
They want me to start him on Reglan (Metoclopramide), Prednisolone, and Chlorambucil (Leukeran). Eventually adding an antibiotic (metronidazole).
So a lot of drugs to start at one time. Ugh. He has been on prednisolone before but never on the other 2 medications. For those of you who have used Reglan and Chlorambucil in cats, please tell me how your cat reacted to the medications? And how long did it take for you to see results? Where do you order your Chlorambucil from? As the vet said I can order it by mail and save some money that way.
What symptoms did your cat present with? And please just give me some encouraging news.
I'm super disappointed this happened to him. He is only 10 years old. My other cats are 16 and 14 yrs old. I had hoped he would live forever. He is my favorite and this just breaks my heart.
