Musiaka has been doing great on pred, he only vomited twice since february and his blood results aren't too bad (a bit hight alt and the vet didn't like his creatinine levels, even though they were within the norm - she said new research shows it might be high). Compared to how he was last year this time of the year it's like day and night. Last year he was shedding and vomiting like crazy, pretty much everyday. His liver enzymes were over the roof and we had to get iv fluids.
This year even his shedding is less severe and he looks like he enjoys life. His eating well, not too much and his fur is of a better quality.
Vet suggested to switch him to chlorambucil, but it is even necessary at this point, if everything is going that well? He's on 1,75 mg pred which, if I'm not wrong, is considered a shadow dose. I might try to get it down to every other day. Can we just go with pred and regular blood checks for the rest of his life and only get him off of it if smth goes wrong?
