Jen...I am sorry to sound stupid...but since the lymph node was removed, WHAT inflammation is being controlled?
Did they find something, or are they just using preventative meds because the cause of the first one isn't known yet?
I just hate to see Mr Meow on meds if he is doing so well...but I guess if they DO find out what caused it, they might look at the meds again?
GLAD he is so well! :)
You don't sound stupid, but I don't necessarily know the answers either. (but it gives me things I might ASK about)
See, after surgery, Mr Meow had diarrhea. He had not really had any of that before. That is when we gave yet another steroid shot. And lo, the diarrhea cleared up. So, to prevent further steroids, he is to take this medication. I guess the vet didn't want to wait until the diarrhea showed up again.
I am sorry that I can't answer all your questions. I wish I had better answers. I just don't question their expert opinion. I mean, I ask for their opinions on procedure, and on what to do next, but if they say this is for his best interest, I do not readily challange that (unless I find just cause). :o
How wonderful about Mr. Meow!!! And that he is eating, too!!! I bet that eases your mind a bit Jen!!! You are a good Mom!!!
Sorry - forgot about the diarrhea...I thought that had cleared up without meds.
I am soooo embarrassed! :p Better safe than sorry with that precious boy!
OH Heavens!! Don't be embarrassed. I admit to not asking enough questions. But I agree, better safe than sorry! I love that boy! :DQuote:
