Hi:
My 4 year old kittie was throwing up blood a week ago all night, so I took her into my vet the next day.
She hadn't been eating for a few days prior to that and had lost weight.
She gave her some sulfate to calm her stomach and an anti-nausea injection to get her eating again.
I took her home and she started eating a little bit over a few days
I then took her for an ultrasound a few days later and it showed thickening of the intestines.
The vet said she didn't know if it was IBD or lymphoma. She gave her a prednisone injection which lasts two weeks and a pill to increase her appetite.
She got her appetite back, but now I'm worried about her...what prognosis does she have? What do you suggest? Are there any supplements I can give her? She is only 4 - can she live a long time?
Thank you,
Lynn
