Well, round 4 at the vet yesterday...came home with three prescriptions for Stewie- the vet is putting him back on the Metronidazole for 3 more days, plus Prednisone for probably 5 days, and he was also given one dose of Drontal last night (along with the other 2 medications). This morning when I went downstairs there was no mess in front of the TV, and the litter box looked empty as well. Could it be...something might be working??

He's also still off the wet food and eating a little chicken and rice as well as his dry food. He still seems very happy and active, so I guess only time will tell over these next couple days. We haven't had any messes to clean up since Sunday morning now...which is the longest we've gone in over two weeks. I never thought I'd be so happy to see poo in a litter box as I was yesterday morning and afternoon! I just hope one of these medications does the trick this time...

Hummm metronidizole is usually a great resource to kill giardia, If that is what it is, but is usually given for more then 3 days, that is weird to me, prednisone I have my doubts, WHAT are the other 2 meds, thats important?????

He's only on the Metronidazole and Prednisone right now. He was on Metronidazole before for about 5 days...it seemed to help the first three days, but after that we had problems again. Last night we also gave him one dose of Drontal (the vet only gave us one dose), along with the Metronidazole and Prednisone. Sounds to me like she might be grasping for straws at this point...
